Frequent battery failure in the JAC T6 is usually caused by environmental, electrical, and maintenance factors:

Extreme temperatures: Pakistan’s hot climate can accelerate battery fluid evaporation and reduce battery life.

Frequent short trips o r idling: The alternator may not fully recharge the battery, leading to gradual discharge.

High electrical load: Use of additional accessories like infotainment systems, lights, o r aftermarket devices increases battery strain.

Poor-quality batteries: Low-grade replacement batteries cannot handle local conditions and may fail prematurely.

Corroded o r loose terminals: Poor connections prevent proper charging and can mimic battery failure.

Preventive measures:

Use high-quality OEM o r equivalent batteries suited for high-temperature environments.

Avoid prolonged idling o r very short trips without sufficient engine running time.

Regularly inspect battery terminals for corrosion and ensure tight connections.
