Do I need to buy a new battery after jump-start?

If your car battery got discharged and now car doesn’t start because of low battery – first and foremost we recommend getting it jump started. Our technician can test your charging system and battery level at your location. In most cases quick battery jump start will solve your problem if:

• You left the lights on for too long
• Using Air/AC without engine running
• Charging phone with engine off
• Left hazard lights on too long

When you find out clear reason what caused your battery drain and you don’t let it sit discharged, but get your car going rather quickly – driving your car for at least 30 minutes should provide enough charge for your battery to recover.
