How Often Should a Car Starter Be Replaced?

[DonovanMarie]

Car starters are generally replaced every ten years. Definition of a Starter: A car starter is a crucial component for starting the engine. It rotates by drawing power from the battery, thereby driving the engine's crankshaft to start the engine. When Replacement is Needed: Generally, car starters are highly durable. The most common reason for replacement is after prolonged vehicle use, when the carbon brushes inside the starter wear down too much from frequent starts and can no longer function even after adjustment. Another common issue is severe wear of the engagement gear, leading to starter failure and inability to start the engine.
