This can also have to do with summertime heat. It’s because the acid inside the car battery expands due to the heat. Make sure you clean your terminal caps properly and fit them snugly on the post, then spread a bit of grease on the terminal clamps as this prevents oxidation and corrosion from it.
If my car battery is leaking acid, does it mean the battery has to be changed?

Answers:

It primarily depends on where the acid is leaking from. If it’s only on the battery posts, it’s normal and can be cleaned with baking soda and hot water. However, if it is coming out from anywhere else, it could be due to a crack in the battery. In that case, a new car battery is definitely the way to go.
