How we handle it.
One of our South Windsor customers was sure the car needed a new battery because it was hard to start. When we tested it, the real problem was corrosion on the battery terminal and a bad connection. We cleaned it, and the car started fine. No battery needed.
That’s the point of testing. A battery, a starter and an alternator can all leave you stuck, but the repair prices are very different.
If your car won’t start, call (860) 896-5911 and we’ll help you figure out the next step. Repairs carry a 3 year, 36,000 mile warranty.
The fix was a cleaning, not a battery.

Questions about battery and no start repair in South Windsor.
Is it the battery or the alternator?
A bad battery won’t hold a charge. A bad alternator stops the battery charging while you drive. We test both.
How long does a car battery last?
Many last 3 to 5 years, depending on weather and how you drive. If yours is older and cranking slowly, get it tested.
Can corrosion keep a car from starting?
Yes. A corroded terminal can block the power the starter needs. We saw exactly that at this shop recently.
Do I need an appointment?
Walk ins are welcome. Appointments are faster.
