    If you're still within warranty the dealer should test your battery for free and replace if necessary.

    SOLAR BA9 battery cca tester is one of my most used tools. I check our batteries during every oil change, and everyone loves to borrow it.
    My dad's tacoma battery started to crank slow and when I check it he was down to 40% of the rated cca.

    Hey, if it’s the original battery, it could be weak.
