The best way to avoid having to jump-start a dead battery is to learn the warning signs of an aging or worn battery. Stop by your local Quick Lane for a battery test if you notice any of the following symptoms.

• Excessive corrosion around the battery terminals or cables
• Bulging or deformity of the battery casing
• Difficulty starting your engine
• Consistent electrical system problems

While you're there, you can get a full Vehicle Check-Up Report to help you monitor your vehicle systems. It's a great way to keep up on all your truck or car maintenance needs.
