A car battery can last for several years, but over time, it will exhibit signs of wear and require replacement. Here are signs that your car battery may be nearing the end of its lifespan:

• Difficulty Starting the Engine: If you're experiencing prolonged cranking or a slow start when turning the key, it could indicate a weak battery that is struggling to provide the necessary power.
• Dimming Headlights: If your headlights appear dim or flicker when the engine is running or at idle, it may indicate an insufficient charge from the battery.
• Electrical Issues: Unusual electrical problems, such as malfunctioning power windows, erratic dashboard indicators, or random engine shutdowns can be signs of a battery issue.
• Swollen or Leaking Battery: If you notice the battery case is swollen or leaking fluid, the battery is damaged and needs to be replaced.
