Why Batteries Die in Austin
Heat, not cold, wears out most batteries in Central Texas. Long summers bake the battery under the hood and shorten its life. Short trips, a light left on, or a car that sat at Austin-Bergstrom Airport for a week can finish it off.
How a Jump Start Works
We connect to your battery, give it enough charge to start the engine and check that it keeps running. Drive for at least 20 to 30 minutes afterward so the alternator can recharge it. If the battery is old or the car still will not start, we can tow it to a shop.
Parking Garages and Tight Spots
Garages downtown and around UT, apartment lots and street parking in Hyde Park are everyday calls. Tell us the garage, level and space number if you can.
