Your car’s radio and headlights, plus a slew of other important functions, are powered by an electrical current generated by your vehicle’s engine. A vital part of generating electricity is having a place to store it while it’s not being used. This is where your car battery comes into play.

If you allow our team here at National Brake & Muffler to perform proper maintenance, an average car battery can start your car reliably for roughly four years.
