Professional battery & charging systems at 1100 W Oakland Park Blvd, Wilton Manors. ASE-certified technicians, 3-year warranty.
If you've ever been stranded with a dead battery in Wilton Manors' heat, you know how important a reliable battery and charging system is. At Vertical Automotive on Oakland Park Blvd, we provide complete battery and charging system service — from testing and replacement to alternator diagnostics and starter repair. South Florida's extreme heat is the leading cause of battery failure, reducing battery life by 30-50% compared to moderate climates. Our testing goes beyond a simple voltage check — we load-test the battery, measure alternator output under load, check starter current draw, and inspect all connections for corrosion. Battery replacement and most replacements are completed in under an hour. For hybrid and EV owners, we also service 12V auxiliary batteries and diagnose charging system issues. We recommend annual battery testing for all vehicles — especially after the battery's second year in Florida heat. Every service is backed by our 3-year / 36,000-mile warranty.

Park in shade or a garage when possible, keep battery terminals clean and tight, make sure the battery is properly secured (vibration kills batteries), and have the charging system tested annually. Even with best practices, expect 2-4 years in Florida heat vs. 4-6 years in moderate climates.
We offer battery testing as part of any service visit. If you're coming in for an oil change or other service, we'll test your battery at no additional charge. For a standalone battery and charging system diagnosis, the fee is included in our diagnostic service.
