Why AAA battery replacement is most convenient
AAA offers three convenient battery replacement options:
On-the-spot battery replacement
AAA members can request on-the-spot battery service at home, work, or almost anywhere their vehicle is located. (Restrictions may apply for non-members.) A trained technician will perform a free battery test. If a new battery is not required, the battery cost will be reimbursed for members. For non-members, a service fee will apply. If battery replacement is needed, the technician can install a new battery on the spot. Members receive a 10% discount on the installation cost. All AAA batteries include a three-year replacement warranty.
In-shop battery replacement
Both members and non-members can visit a AAA Car Care Center or AAA-approved facility for battery testing and installation. If your battery has died and you’re a AAA member, you can also have your vehicle towed to a nearby repair location. Technicians will test the battery to determine whether it can be recharged or should be replaced. If needed, they can install a battery backed by a three-year warranty. Member savings for this service include 10% off the installation cost.
Battery purchase through NAPA
Members who prefer to install their own battery may purchase one through participating NAPA locations as well as at AAA-owned repair facilities or AAA-approved auto repair shops. AAA members enjoy battery savings at NAPA Auto Parts stores.
