battery problem
pinkkitten asked:


Okay so I don’t know a lot about cars so I need some help. I just replaced the alternator and the battery in my truck and it is still showing a low battery on the gauge and the battery light is lit up on the dashboard. What else could be the problem?

How long is a car battery supposed to last?

I have an ‘07 Mustang I bought new. It has less than 27,000 miles on it. I’ve been informed that it needs a new battery, but it seems like this NEW battery in a NEW car didn’t last very long. I’ve bought used cars with the original battery that lasted longer - a 3 yrs old car with over 70,000 miles on it, drove for 2 more years on the original battery. So how long SHOULD a car battery last?
Thank You for your answers - glad I bought that extended warrenty! ;-)
