A car's battery may suffer through more problems than the owner expects. Seasons change, and car batteries end up subjected to extreme changes in the weather. The frigid cold could contribute to a heavy drain, which may kill a battery. Don’t assume hot weather is perfect, though. When the heat creeps up, a car battery may experience significant problems.
In cold weather, chemical reactions inside car batteries slow down. Starters also need to draw more power from the battery, and that can drain it. Hotshots help, but, if a serious problem develops, the battery may require replacing.
Extreme heat also wreaks havoc on batteries. Batteries may suffer severe damage if heat evaporates battery fluid. Heat may affect various internal components and cause corrosion. A battery could die from such issues.
