The battery in your car is one of the most imperative parts of your vehicle. Without your car battery, your car will not turn on. So making sure your battery is up to date will prevent you from getting stranded wherever you are traveling.

If you have removed your battery and set it on the ground before reinstalling, you may need to replace your battery. If your car battery is more than a few years old, then replacing your battery is a good idea.

Because the battery does get charged by the alternator, it's important to understand that if your voltage meter gives a low reading while the car is on and in motion, then your battery may be fine, and your alternator may be the issue.

Making sure your battery is up to date can keep you from getting stuck on the side of the road and ultimately having to get towed.
