Battery Service and Electrical Repairs
Your vehicle’s battery does more than just start your engine. It powers essential systems and electronics while continuously charging and discharging during use. Over time, this constant demand takes a toll, eventually reducing the battery’s performance and lifespan. Regular battery maintenance and timely replacement are key to avoiding unexpected breakdowns or starting issues. At Parkor Auto Care Tire Pros, we offer professional battery diagnostics, replacements, and electrical system repairs for drivers throughout Colorado Springs. Stay powered and prepared.

Electrical Inspections and Battery Tests
We’re happy to conduct a routine battery check for your car at our shop. The check includes a test and a visual inspection of the terminals, cables, and battery fluid. We recommend testing your battery every 5,000 miles or during every oil change. During the inspection, we also use a load-testing device to check your battery’s voltage for its charging system. Many cars require all different types of batteries and voltages. We’re equipped to service all makes and models.
If you enter your car and the dome lights aren’t on, and then your engine doesn’t start, you most likely have a dead battery. Your vehicle may have an indicator light to also tell you. Most of the time, you can jump your vehicle. But if your battery refuses to hold charge, it needs to be replaced. Further inspection can identify if you have an alternator issue as well. We will look for this during our service.
Battery Replacement Services
If you need to jump your vehicle to bring it in for a replacement, turn off all electronics, including seat warmers and the stereo, while you bring it to us. There aren’t many fixes for batteries outside of replacing them. Fortunately, it’s quick, easy, and affordable. We can replace your battery in usually an hour. We’ll even recycle your old battery for you. Contact us today to schedule your appointment for a battery replacement or electronic work on your car.
