Do I need a 2016 Acura MDX OEM battery when I replace it?

My MDX’s car battery keeps dying, no matter how much I charge it. Do I need a 2016 Acura MDX OEM battery when I replace it?

The average car battery typically lasts three to five years. You could certainly replace your 2016
Acura MDX
OEM battery with another OEM battery if you prefer, but it’s not your only option.
You can check the specifications a car battery would need to meet for your Acura MDX in your owner’s manual. While you’re shopping for a battery, here are just a few of the factors you’ll want to pay attention to in addition to battery type:
  • Cold cranking amps (CCA): This rating will tell you how well it will perform in cold temperatures.
  • Group number/size: This number will give you an idea of whether the battery size and setup are compatible with your MDX.
  • Reserve capacity (RC): This will tell you how long a battery could function without help from the alternator on a full charge.
Hope this helps! If your
