Jerry’s Automotive Addresses Vehicle Battery Degradation Risks Caused by Seasonal Heat Waves

AAA estimates nearly 2 million battery-related service calls each summer as Jerry's Automotive urges drivers to check charging systems before heat causes failures.

  • On Thursday, July 2, 2026, Jerry's Automotive launched a technical awareness initiative focused on vehicle battery health and electrical system reliability for Mid-Michigan drivers during summer's hottest stretch.
  • Summer heat causes electrolyte fluid to evaporate, corroding internal lead plates permanently, while AAA estimates it responds to nearly 2 million battery-related service calls nationwide every summer.
  • Drivers should watch for slow engine cranking, dim lights, or batteries more than three years old; led by ASE Master Technician Chris Luoma, the shop holds NAPA AutoCare Gold Center status.
  • Jerry's ASE-certified technicians evaluate battery capacity and charging system performance, offering loaner vehicles and shuttle services so electrical checks do not disrupt customer workdays.
  • Serving Lansing since 1965, the business maintains an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau, and every repair is backed by a 5-year, 50,000-mile warranty through NAPA AutoCare Gold Center.
