How long a car battery lasts depends on many variables including your driving habits, the climate you live in, and how well your car runs. This typically can range from one to seven years, with the average being around four or five. A good rule of thumb would be to automatically have your battery changed within that four to five year range, or to look for signs such as dimming headlights that indicate that your battery is dying.
A car battery should be changed every 5 years as long as no problems in power supply occur.

How often do you charge a car battery?
A car battery should not be "cycled" as in fully discharged and then recharged. Such a cycling would quickly destroy this kind of battery. A car battery is discharged slightly when you start your car, then it is recharged again when you drive your car. Proper charging whilst running car engine is good for the battery. A normal car-battery (Lead-acid) can last for many years if not "cycled". Never discharge battery more than 50%. How often you actually need to recharge your battery depends on how it is used.

The engine control module "learns" the particular operating characteristics of the particular engine in the car. When there is no power to the engine control module, as in when the battery terminal was disconnected, the memory is often "lost" and upon reconnection has to be "re learned" If that is the problem your car has it should be able to learn again, simply drive the car around at moderate speeds for a time.
