Your car’s radio and headlights, plus a slew of other important functions, are powered by an electrical current generated by your vehicle’s engine. A vital part of generating electricity is having a place to store it while it’s not being used. This is where your car battery comes into play. The battery of your vehicle holds electrical energy while the car is off in order to help the engine turn over and create a spark to start internal combustion. Without a working battery, your car will not be able to start. If you allow our team here at Stirling Auto to perform proper maintenance, an average car battery can start your car reliably for roughly four years.

An article about routine maintenance probably doesn’t sound like the most riveting read, but at Stirling Auto in Hudson, FL, proper maintenance is something we believe in wholeheartedly.
