Battery Test and Inspection near Aurora, IL
If you’ve been experiencing issues with your car’s battery or if you simply want to learn more about this component before it becomes a problem, then we here at Gerald Subaru of North Aurora can guide you. We can help you learn if there’s anything wrong with your battery and what we can do to help you fix it.
The Purpose of the Battery.
The battery is a vital component of your Subaru Outback. Without it, the vehicle wouldn’t even be able to start as it needs the initial shock to begin the engine. Your car’s lights, media, and climate control all rely on this part as it provides stable electricity to them. Of course, your car’s alternator is able to generate power but the battery stores it and regulates it. Should this part get damaged or cease to work, your drives throughout Aurora would come to a complete halt.
Battery Test
Our skilled technicians in our Service Department are Subaru certified and can help determine if there are any issues with your battery. By using electronic equipment, they’ll be able to tell if your battery is able to hold a charge or not. They can also see how quickly it takes for it to drain of power. Should they find the worst to be true, they’ll replace it with one from our Parts Department. If everything seems to be in order, they’ll let you know how long it should last and when to bring it in again, so you’re not stranded on Route 59 in the near future.
Battery Inspection
There are plenty of issues that can cause the battery to stop working, things like corrosion or rust can rapidly drain the power cell. If there are loose wires or debris like leaves or dirt, that could also cause problems. If the battery is bloated or bulging then there could be some serious damage that will affect the efficiency. Our team will be able to find any of these problems when they inspect your battery physically to make sure there’s no other factors. They’ll be sure to give you a thorough yet quick inspection so you can get out as fast as you can to go back to your picnic in Oakhurst Forest Preserve. So if you have any questions, then our Service Department can certainly help!

I don't trust anyone else to service my car!
“ My family has been buying cars from the Gerald Auto Group since the mid-90's and our cars are always serviced with the location at which they were purchased. That having been said, my recent service call with David Gonzales was very positive, although the news I received was not. Due to poor alignment, my tires wore unevenly so that they could not be rotated as I had requested. David brought out quotes for new tires (they don't carry the suggested tire in stock - not surprisingly, nobody does!) and was very helpful with additional places to purchase new ones. I'll be back for the service department to re-align my 2010 Legacy once I've gotten new tires. (Yes, I'm on a budget, so I'll do some online shopping before I order those pricey new shoes!) These guys always do the best work, and I feel confident that the work is done right the first time. I don't trust anyone else to service my car! ”
