Get a head start on maintenance before you have to jump-start

Your regular medical checkups aren't so different from your vehicle's routine inspections. Similar to how your doctor checks on the ol' ticker, the technicians here at Lithia Ford of Boise give the battery of your Ford or Lincoln an expert evaluation to ensure the whole electrical system is poised to work at peak performance. And just like how your battery, alternator and starter need to hum in perfect harmony in order for your engine to turn over, the members of our Boise car repair center and parts department work hand-in-hand to guarantee that everything under the hood is repaired or replaced properly -- so you're driving a healthy and safe vehicle for many miles to come.

Did you know that your battery only lasts three to five years? If you're pushing it to its limits, jump-starting it for everything it's worth, you could be in for a rude awakening one of these mornings when you trudge out to the driveway during a winter cold snap or a summer heat wave and your car won't start no matter what you do. Our factory-trained technicians can diagnose precisely what is causing your starting or charging system to malfunction and replace or repair the troublesome parts. And if you keep an eye on our rotating service specials, you could have this all taken care of for a fraction of the cost.

Don't wait until you need one of your friendly Meridian, Nampa, Caldwell and Eagle neighbors to jumpstart your battery to have your starting and charging system inspected. Making an appointment is as easy as visiting our convenient online service schedule, and having all of your car battery questions answered is as simple as calling one of our knowledgeable and personable service advisors at 888-960-6720.
