Auto Service Tip: Buying a New Battery

Hi, my name is Kim. One morning when I was in a rush to get to work, I discovered that my car wouldn't start. I called the mobile auto repair guy and he tried to jump start the car. The car still wouldn't start and I had to get it towed to a garage. The mechanic inspected and tested the battery and found that it was completely dead.
