While hybrid electric vehicles and electric vehicles are well built and efficient, high voltage batteries eventually need to be replaced.
Our team of specialists can recommend the best replacement battery for your vehicle's make and model. Hybrid and electric vehicles rely on a high voltage battery to power their electrical systems such as braking, steering, transmission, A/C compressor, and many other components. To keep your battery performing in its tip-top shape, we recommend a regular inspection of cables and connections and occasionally testing the battery to measure and analyze voltage and capacity.
Advanced Technology, Advanced Repairs
High voltage batteries, like those used in hybrid and electric vehicles, generate a lot of hear and need adequate air circulation to maintain the correct temperature. Similar to other air filters in your vehicle, the battery air filter catches dirt and debris, and it can become clogged, which restricts airflow. We recommend inspecting this air filter at each service by our team of experts, and we recommend it to be replaced at least once per year. This will ensure the battery compartment cools at its best.
Brakes on a hybrid or electric vehicle are also different and should be worked on by a team that specializes in hybrid repair, like our Titan Team of experts! While there are still brake pads, rotors, and fluid, the braking system on a hybrid or electric vehicle is computerized and electrical. This means that when you press on your brakes, you actually send energy back to your battery. This process is called Regenerative Braking, and we recommend the system be inspected regularly and that the fluid is drained and replaced at least once per year. There are many reasons you should be choosing a qualified auto repair facility with hybrid repair specialists to work on your hybrid or electric vehicle, so schedule your appointment today!
