To keep your vehicle running, and to get it turned on, you need a good car battery. Here at our service center in Bethesda, we have you covered for battery services. Whether you need a new one, or need a battery check, our team at Ourisman Volkswagen of Bethesda is here to help you. We service all makes and brands, and can assist you with car battery services today.
If you suspect your battery is running low on power, we can perform a battery test for you to see if that's true, and if you may need a replacement, or a battery charge. We'll perform the diagnostic test and let you know if it's above or below a healthy threshold, and we can recommend a replacement, or if it needs a charge, we can charge it for you to get the power levels back to the appropriate levels.
There are typically easy signs to spot when you need a new car battery. The first is if your vehicle is having trouble starting on a regular basis. That means your battery power is low, and is not getting enough charge to power your vehicle. Another issue is related to the charge, meaning that you can start your vehicle, but it won't stay started, which indicates that your battery needs to be replaced.
Sometimes, our car batteries don't start for explainable reasons and it's not a sign to panic or get a new one. This is especially true on cold winter mornings, when cars and SUVs struggle to start. If it's been very cold and you have not been not driving for a while, your vehicle may need a jump. Generally, once you have your car jumped and take it for a drive of around 45 minutes to warm up the battery and recharge it, you should be fine. Another thing that might cause your battery not to start, but can be explained, is that if you've accidentally left a car light on in the cabin. That can lower battery life, but a jump and charge via a longer drive can help bring things back to normal.
If it's determined you need a new battery, you can purchase one from us or our parts department. We have batteries specifically for many of the Volkswagen vehicles we service, and other sizes too to fit many brands. We also carry leading battery brands as well, so you can purchase a trusted name and know that you're getting a quality car battery replacement here at our dealership service center in Bethesda.
