A well-cared-for starter ensures smooth and reliable driving experiences. Periodic inspection and maintenance keeps your starter in top shape and helps avoid unexpected breakdowns.
If you notice any of the following, it might be time for a check-up:
Slow or hesitant cranking—your engine takes longer to start.
Intermittent starting issues—sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t.
Ignoring these signs could leave you stranded when you least expect it.
Your starter benefits from regular care.
Keep your battery in check—a weak battery puts extra strain on the starter.
Inspect starter connections—loose or corroded wires can interfere with proper functioning.
Avoid excessive cranking—if your engine doesn’t start immediately, wait a few seconds before trying again.
Even with proper maintenance, starters don’t last forever. They typically last between 80,000 to 150,000 miles, depending on driving conditions and usage.
