If your car won't start it could be a dead battery. The auto part professionals at Alternative Automotive can test your battery and install a new one if needed.

Battery Installation
Are you aware that an automotive battery needs to be replaced every few years? This is true no matter how often you take your car for maintenance. When the time for battery replacement comes around, most car owners don't have the time and necessary experience to install a new battery. At Alternative Automotive, we will help you determine whether your car needs a new battery or not. If the battery is dead and can't be recharged, we will help you with new battery installation. Call 760-480-0851 or visit us today.

Battery Recycling
Since automotive batteries contain a number of toxic chemicals and heavy metals, dead batteries should be recycled to save the environment from pollution. Battery recycling is the process aimed at reducing the number of batteries being disposed of as solid waste. The process reduces the risks of soil contamination and water pollution. Alternative Automotive provides a battery recycling service. Visit our auto parts store in Escondido, CA 92029 or call us today.

Battery Testing
Battery testing is the process of examining an automotive battery to gather useful information about individual cells and the battery. Although battery testing is fairly simple and straightforward (and only requires a few basic tools), the test results are not straightforward. For this reason, you should let an experienced auto parts professional handle your battery testing. For all your battery testing needs, call 760-480-0851 or visit Alternative Automotive today.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Alternative Auto has been servicing three of my autos since about 2008. Better than the 'dealer', comparatively reasonable prices. If you are in a jam as I have been, they are really great at helping. It is a very good auto shop, foreign or domestic.

They have always done me really good in the last few years as I depend on them to help keep my older cars on the road.

Had to mention how great my experience was coming here. For the past few months, I had problems with my right turn blinker and I already changed out the bulb and the assembly twice. I called multiple locations and even though I had an idea of what was going on, they wanted to charge me $100 or more for JUST the inspection only and any additional charges for anything that they deem 'necessary' to do to my car. For that reason, I was discouraged and refused to look for any further help. A few months later, I simply googled nearby car electricians and found this place. I called and I spoke to Omar (I'm positive it was Omar) and he was professional and very understanding of my situation! After taking in all my info, he tells me the inspection was going to be $30 along with any additional charges to fix the problem. I was so surprised and ecstatic to hear so! I made an appointment for early Friday morning and left my car so they can inspect it. The problem was very minor compared to what others have said it could be, and overall charge was $50 with tax included. I was overjoyed to have my blinker fixed at a reasonable and realistic pricing! Not to mention Omar was very helpful throughout the whole time. Even though hand signals were able to assist for so long, I couldn't risk any of my lights being non-functional any longer. Thank you to everyone here, it's nice to have a shop you can trust in. Highly recommend this shop to anyone in need of car troubles and/or people who feel intimidated by other auto repair shops with such ridiculous prices. Give them a call! It'll be worth your time!
