How much should a battery cost tor my car. I took it to a Chrylser dealorship and they told me it would cost me $400 to get a new one.

if you go to most auto parts stores you can get one for half that cost and they will install it for free.

If you are in the US you can go online and see what Walmart - Autozone - Batteries Plus will charge .

If you ask the dealer they will probably say $150. I don’t know what is included in the $400 estimate, is there corrosion damage to the cables? You will need to ask what is included.

Compared to the other convertibles we drove (VW Eos, Mustang, Toyota Solara), it was expensive, underpowered, loud, and the top took over the entire trunk when down. After seeing this, I understan…

Chrysler manufactured millions of cars with the battery inside the front fender, they are not damaged by engine heat in that location.

I have owned a Dodge Stratus for 20 years, never added water to a maintenance free battery (OEM battery had the caps glued on) and never had to clean the posts, most batteries don’t leak acid. I can remove the battery in 5 minutes, demonstrated this to my son while parked on gravel. If I had to tol…

Battery is probably less than $150, the rest is labor/shop time.
Battery replacement on a Sebring is a PIA. You might find a shop that will replace it for free if you are lucky.
