Owning a Car in West Haven
West Haven sees about 65 days a year at 90°F or hotter. Heat wears a battery out faster than cold does, so a battery that seems fine in spring can quit in August. Get it tested once it is three years old. Heat also works the AC, the cooling fan and the coolant hard, and those jobs pile up in the first hot weeks of the year.
Lows drop to freezing on about 128 nights a year. Cold is when a weak battery finally fails, because a cold engine takes more power to turn over.
The average commute in West Haven is 23 minutes each way, and 71% of workers drive there alone.
