Big temperature swings in Colorado Springs are tough on batteries, and a cold morning is often when an aging one gives out. Book a jump start in the Hopper app and track the driver to your car.
Once it starts, drive long enough to recharge. If it keeps happening, have the battery tested before winter really sets in.
Cars parked at trailheads, at the airport or outside for a few cold nights are the usual suspects for a dead battery here. Add a note with your lot or trailhead so the driver finds you quickly.
What to expect
A jump start is for a car that clicks, cranks slowly or shows dim dash lights. The driver connects to your battery and gets the engine running so you can drive to a shop or home. If the battery is old or the car dies again soon after, plan to have the battery and charging system tested. A jump gets you moving; it doesn't fix a failing battery.
A tip for Colorado Springs drivers
On I-25 through the city, traffic moves fast. Get as far off the road as you can and, if there's no safe place to stand, stay buckled in your car with hazards on.
