Frequently Asked Questions
Can IC Roadside & Key replace my battery on the spot?
Yes, we carry a selection of common battery sizes from trusted brands on our service trucks. We test your existing battery with a professional load tester, and if it needs replacing, we install a new one right at your location — home, office, or roadside. The entire process typically takes 20 to 30 minutes. Battery replacement costs $150 to $300 including the battery and installation, depending on your vehicle's requirements.
How do I know if my battery is dead or if it's something else?
Common signs of a dead battery include a clicking sound when turning the key, dim headlights, and no dashboard lights. However, similar symptoms can indicate a failed alternator, bad starter motor, or corroded connections. Our technicians perform a complete electrical system test including battery load test, alternator output check, and starter draw test to pinpoint the exact issue before recommending any repairs or replacement.
How long does a car battery last?
Most car batteries last 3 to 5 years, but Iowa's extreme temperature swings can shorten that lifespan significantly. Cold winter mornings — especially below zero — put the most stress on batteries, while hot summer heat accelerates internal corrosion. We recommend having your battery tested before each winter season. If your battery is over 3 years old and showing slow cranking, it is worth getting a professional load test to avoid an unexpected failure.
