How do I maintain the battery life of my Ford EcoSport?

I noticed that my Ford EcoSport's battery life isn't as long as it used to be. How can I ensure that my battery stays healthy and lasts longer?

One way to maintain your battery's life is to avoid leaving your headlights on or leaving electronic devices plugged in when the car is turned off. This can drain the battery and shorten its lifespan. Make sure to also keep your battery terminals clean and free of corrosion.

You can also consider investing in a battery tender or trickle charger. These devices can help keep your battery charged when the car is not in use for extended periods of time. It's also a good idea to take your car for a long drive at least once a week to keep the battery charged and maintain its health.

Another important factor in maintaining your battery's life is to regularly check your car's alternator, as it is responsible for recharging the battery while the car is running. If your alternator is faulty, it can greatly decrease your battery's lifespan.
