Summer Car Maintenance: Free Battery Checks from Battery Town
Get Road-Trip Ready with New Zealand’s Auto-Electrical Experts
Planning a summer road trip? Before you load the chilly bin and head off, make sure your car is ready for the drive. The team at Battery Town offers free battery checks and professional auto-electrical inspections to help you stay safe and stress-free this holiday season.
Why Summer Car Maintenance Matters
Hot weather, long drives, and extra electrical load can all take a toll on your car battery. High temperatures cause battery fluid to evaporate faster, reducing performance and lifespan. Add towing, stop-start traffic, and heavy use of air-conditioning, and your vehicle’s charging system can be under real pressure.
A quick summer battery health check ensures your car, boat, or 4WD is ready for whatever the holidays bring.
