The chambers are full. Temp here has been -25++wind for a couple days. Is there anything I can add to thaw out (like alcohol or ??). 07 PT Cruiser, unsure of battery age, purchased car used about a year ago. 01 T&C mini van battery has been strong but old (2010).

It was in a discharged state which allowed it to freeze. No saving it now. PS, I am deleting your duplicate question. One is sufficient. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

No fun lots of serious problems acid burns and do this while warm enough. Don't allow even the ice or dry junk to get on anything and super care to handle the cracked up battery still could make explosive gasses this is a real rock and hard place to deal with right now!
