About Car Batteries & How Long They Last
Car batteries last for approximately 3-4 years before losing integrity. They are notoriously susceptible to extreme heat and tend to offer sluggish performance when it's cold outside. We recommend getting an annual battery inspection with diagnostic testing due to extreme summer heat, freezing winters, and the auto battery's short life.

A certified Volkswagen battery inspection also includes diagnostic testing.
