The battery is one of the most critical components in your vehicle. It provides the electrical current needed to start the engine and powers equipment like the radio, headlights and wipers.
And so, at Phil Waterford's Manteca Ford we offer expert battery service to keep your car running smoothly.
Battery Maintenance Matters
Over time, car batteries lose their ability to hold a charge due to factors like extreme air temperature, frequent short trips or simply age. Without proper maintenance, you may find yourself stranded with a dead battery when you least expect it. That's why it's important to have your battery tested regularly and replaced if needed.
Signs You Need a New Battery
There are several warning signs that your battery may be nearing the end of its life. If you notice your car is slow to start, the battery light is illuminated on the dash or headlights seem dimmer than usual, it's a good idea to have your battery checked. In this, Manteca drivers can count on the experienced technicians at Phil Waterford's Manteca Ford service center for thorough battery testing and replacement if needed.
Benefits of Dealership Battery Service
When it comes to battery service, it pays to trust experts. Our factory-trained technicians have the knowledge and equipment to accurately diagnose battery issues and recommend the best course of action.

Extend Battery Life
In addition to regular testing and replacement when needed, there are steps you can take to help extend the life of your car battery. Avoid frequent short trips that don't allow the battery to fully recharge. Make sure battery terminals are clean and free of corrosion. And if you know your car will be sitting unused for an extended period, consider using a battery tender to maintain the charge.
