A dead battery stops your day cold. We come to you and get you moving again fast.
Las Vegas heat is brutal on car batteries. Summer temps above 115°F cook battery fluid and break down the internal plates faster than almost anywhere else in the country. Most batteries last three to five years here, not the five to seven you'd get in a cooler climate.[1] And those cold winter nights, dropping into the 40s, hit a weak battery hard too. We've had customers in Summerlin call us thinking their car just "won't start" only to find out the battery has been struggling for weeks. Don't wait until you're stuck in a parking lot on a 110-degree afternoon. If your engine cranks slowly or your lights dim when you start up, call us.
If your engine turns over slowly before starting, the battery is likely weak. This is one of the earliest signs, and it's easy to miss until the car won't start at all.
Las Vegas summers push batteries past their limits. High heat evaporates battery fluid and speeds up internal corrosion, cutting battery life short.
In the desert, three years is old for a battery. We recommend testing yours at the three-year mark, especially before summer hits.
White or blue buildup on the battery posts means corrosion is blocking the connection. Sometimes a cleaning helps, but often the battery itself needs to go.
Flickering lights, a radio that resets, or a dashboard that acts strange can all point to a failing battery. These aren't always a wiring problem.
A completely dead battery means you're not going anywhere on your own. We'll come to you and get the job done right there.

Battery prices in Las Vegas vary based on your vehicle type and the battery brand. A basic replacement for a standard sedan costs less than one for a large truck or a luxury car with a specialty battery. Labor is included in our mobile service fee, so you're not paying a shop rate on top of parts. We give you the full price before we start, and that number doesn't change. Last month a customer in North Las Vegas was quoted a much higher price at a chain shop. We came to his driveway and saved him over $80.
Here are the questions we hear most from Las Vegas drivers.
Most battery replacements in Las Vegas run between $150 and $350, depending on your vehicle. Standard cars cost less. Trucks, SUVs, and luxury vehicles with AGM or specialty batteries cost more. We give you the exact price before we touch anything.
Most battery swaps take 30 to 45 minutes. We test the old battery, remove it, install the new one, and check the charging system. Some vehicles with hard-to-reach batteries take a bit longer, but we'll let you know upfront.
You can on some older vehicles. But newer cars have battery management systems that need to be reset after a swap. Getting that wrong can trigger warning lights or cause electrical issues. We've seen DIY jobs go sideways more than once, and fixing those problems costs more than the original battery job.
Plan on every three years here. The extreme heat shortens battery life compared to cooler climates. Some batteries make it to four or five years, but we'd rather test yours than have you find out it's dead on a 115-degree afternoon.
Yes, if you're stuck somewhere. We offer same-day and emergency service for exactly this situation. Call us and we'll get to you. Don't sit in the heat waiting for a tow when a battery swap can fix it on the spot.
Slow cranking when you start the car is the most common sign. You might also notice dim headlights, a dashboard that flickers, or a battery warning light. In Las Vegas, summer heat speeds up the decline, so symptoms can show up fast.
Yes, always. We test the battery first to confirm it's the actual problem. Sometimes a bad connection or a failing alternator looks like a dead battery. We want to fix what's actually wrong, sell you a part you don't need.
