How long should a 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser battery last?

Short-trip driving, accessory loads, and temperature swings around the Wasatch Front can shorten battery life.

Our Toyota-certified team in Murray can load-test your battery and assess the charging system during a quick service visit.

How do I know if my 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser battery is dying?
