Motorists are advised to engage in some preventative maintenance to avoid potential to damage vehicles from the recent summer heat.
According to AAA, hot summer sun and heat can break down the internal components of car batteries leading to increased danger of failure.
Motorists are advised to have battery and charging systems tested especially before long road trips. Other ways to lessen the chance of battery failure include making sure cables are clean and tight as well as taking the vehicle for a long drive at least once every week or two.
In Pennsylvania, vehicle batteries typically last three to five years.
