Whether you drive a Hino, Isuzu, Ford, or Chevrolet, we have the tools, training, and experience to restore your hybrid’s power and performance.

What Is a Hybrid Battery?

A hybrid battery is at the core of every hybrid vehicle, working in tandem with a gas-powered engine to deliver unmatched fuel economy. These rechargeable, high-capacity batteries store and deliver electrical energy, allowing your vehicle to seamlessly switch between power sources depending on driving conditions.

Hybrid vehicles typically include:

• A 12-volt lead-acid battery (like traditional vehicles)
• A high-voltage electric battery for propulsion
• Gasoline-powered engines that recharge the electric battery during use

The result? Exceptional energy efficiency. In fact, most hybrids are 20%–35% more fuel-efficient than traditional gas-powered cars. This system also provides regenerative braking, where energy is recycled back into the battery every time you brake.

Signs You May Need Hybrid Battery Replacement

Like all vehicle components, hybrid batteries wear out over time. Most will last around 8 years or 100,000–150,000 miles, depending on your driving habits and climate. When your battery begins to fail, your vehicle may give you some warning signs:

• Decreased fuel efficiency
• Fluctuating charge levels on your dashboard
• Frequent charging cycles or sudden power drops
• Strange engine sounds when accelerating
• Dashboard warning lights

If you’re noticing any of these symptoms, visit Burien Auto & Truck Repair in King County for a full diagnostic and honest recommendation.

What Is Hybrid Battery Reconditioning?

Battery reconditioning is a cost-effective and eco-friendly alternative to full replacement. It helps extend the life of your hybrid battery by restoring its capacity through specialized testing and balancing.

Here’s how the reconditioning process works:

1. Assessment: We evaluate the battery’s current health and performance.
2. Disassembly & Testing: The battery is disassembled, and individual cells (modules) are tested and "exercised" using precision equipment.
3. Balancing: Cells are grouped with others of similar performance and capacity.
4. Final Charge: Reassembled modules undergo final testing and are fully recharged.
5. Component Check: Other components (cooling fans, wiring, etc.) are inspected.
6. Reinstallation: The reconditioned battery is installed back into your vehicle for optimal performance.

Battery reconditioning can restore up to 90–95% of the battery’s original capacity, depending on its age and condition.
