You'd need an awfully large charger to get voltage spikes past the very

Properly designed car electronics should have voltage regulators (and
components) rated up to 40 volts.


....and if the battery is faulty and open circuit???

You will have replaced it already

If it's been left flat for years, possibly. ;-)
