This applies to batteries either under the hood or in the trunk.\n\n“When we install a battery, it gives us an opportunity to assess the entire electrical system,” said Broderick. “Our customers’ safety is our first concern. It’s not about just replacing a battery. It’s about offering a free, quality 32-point courtesy inspection to ensure that everything is in good working order, especially during the winter season.”\n\nMonro encourages customers to take advantage of the company’s free battery check service to assess battery health, particularly in cold-weather regions. This offer is valid in conjunction with regular maintenance work or as a drive-in service if the customer has a concern.\n\nMeeting Customer Demand\n\nMonro understands that today’s busy consumers look for convenience, personal service, and buying options tailored to their needs. The company has rolled out several enhanced offerings in time for the holiday season, including:\n\n\nExtended store hours across all brands.\n\n\nA walk-in oil service option to provide hassle-free service, in addition to its online appointment system.\n\n\nGood-Better-Best oil service package updates to give customers competitively priced options t...
