BCA has announced the opening of a new battery repair centre at the Doncaster site

Managed by BCA Fleet Solutions, the facility offers a wide range of battery repairs for electric vehicles and hybrids entering the remarketing process, when the manufacturer warranty has expired or become invalidated.  According to BCA, it's the first of its kind to serve the remarketing sector.

The range of services goes across all make and models and includes diagnosis, insulation testing, module repair and replacement, casing repairs, drive motor replacements, cellular balancing, DC charger and inverter repairs, green parts supply where available and high voltage component replacement.

Repairs are carried out to OEM standards. BCA additionally carries out on-site battery repair at the Renault Import Centre in Portbury, supporting Renault UK with traction battery maintenance facilities.

BCA launched its EV battery report service late in 2024 in partnership with AVILOO. Batteries on sale cars are graded from A to E, resulting in significantly higher sale conversion rates, improved average values and a shorter time to sale for both passenger cars and electric LCVs.

Alongside this, BCA’s specialist EV/Hybrid Assured Report includes testing the charging capability of the vehicles, the state of the charge port and availability of charge cables, ensuring trade buyers have all the detail they need to make an informed purchasing decision.

Paul Bromley, Managing Director of BCA Fleet Solutions stated:

“The new BCA Battery Repair Centre provides a one-stop solution for electric vehicle repairs for our customers. Rather than simply replacing expensive batteries, we investigate the cause and repair or replace components, delivering a cost-effective and timely solution that means EVs and hybrid vehicles can be repaired and offered for sale without undue delay. This helps to foster a circular economy, driving ESG goals and ensuring these vehicles reach the market in the best possible condition to attract buyers.”
