How Do I Maintain the Battery Life of My Ford Focus?

I recently purchased a Ford Focus and I want to make sure that the battery lasts as long as possible. Can you provide some tips on how to properly maintain the battery for optimal performance and longevity?

Hi Jane, congratulations on your new Ford Focus! To maintain the battery life, make sure to regularly check the battery fluid and clean any corrosion on the terminals. It's also important to avoid deep discharging the battery and keep it fully charged. Additionally, extreme temperatures can affect battery life, so try to park in a covered or shaded area when possible. Hope this helps!

Hey Jane, a few other tips for maintaining your Ford Focus's battery would be to avoid using electronics while the engine is off, especially for extended periods of time. Also, try to limit short trips and use a battery maintainer if your car sits unused for a while. Cheers!
