As with most things, a proactive approach is best. Owners can thus get the most from their batteries and avoid problems by monitoring the battery health of their vehicles. This is mainly done during routine service inspections.

Positive grid growth and undercharging causing sulfation can also cause a car battery to go bad.

I worked with Don and Mike to purchase a Ram and the service was excellent. I bought the truck for our Missouri location from my office in California and the paperwork was mailed to me quickly and everything was handled smoothly. I would definitely buy another vehicle from Laura Auto Group again.

I purchased my Mustang from Nick Polanowski. I was 2 states and over 8 hours away. He made the buying experience an enjoyable one and very transparent. This was my first vehicle purchase on my own and he kept me informed every step of the way. I highly recommend if you're in search of a vehicle to reach out to him.

Purchased my ram 2500 from them in November. Nick P. Was my salesman and he and the financing dept where very helpful and communicative. I had the vehicle shipped all the way to New Jersey with no problems at all. I highly recommend buying from them. Once you see truck you like do a fast deposit so they can hold it for you. Thank you
