It's a good practice to have your Dodge Journey car battery regularly tested, especially if it is getting older or you've been experiencing issues like a slow engine crank, dimming lights, warning lights or difficulty starting the engine.

If you experience any of these signs or are unsure about the condition of your Dodge Journey battery, it's a good idea to have your battery inspected by a professional. Our auto technicians can perform a battery test to determine the actual condition of your battery and advise you on whether you are ready for a Dodge battery replacement.

Regular maintenance—such as keeping the terminals clean and checking the battery's cables—may also help to prolong the life of your Dodge Journey battery. Still, when your battery shows signs of weakness or reaches the end of its expected lifespan, it's a good idea to replace it to avoid being stranded with a dead battery.

What is the location of your Dodge Journey battery? The battery location in your Dodge Journey is not in the engine bay where you might expect but instead positioned behind the front bumper in front of the driver's side tire.
