2020 Ram 3500 Battery: Specs & Service

Regular inspection can identify terminal corrosion, loose hold-down hardware, and charging-system concerns before they contribute to a no-start condition. Larry H. Miller Dodge Ram Peoria can also perform a battery load and state-of-health test when you schedule service. That test measures remaining battery performance instead of relying only on age or appearance.

• Charging-system output testing is included in the battery service
• Terminal and hold-down condition are checked

These symptoms can appear gradually before the battery fails to start the truck. A battery that is more than a few years old also deserves testing, particularly after repeated starting concerns.
