Hello Aurora drivers! Need a new battery? There is a good chance that you do – 70% of batteries need to be replaced within four years. As your battery discharges and then recharges as you drive around Aurora, bits of the surface of the battery plates disintegrate.

Contact Tuffy Tire & Auto Service Aurora for information on battery replacement.
