How Often Should I Get My Heavy Truck Serviced?
Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and performance of your heavy truck. This can vary depending on the work your vehicle is used for and the driving conditions. Always consult your truck’s manual for specific recommendations and maintain a consistent maintenance schedule to avoid unexpected breakdowns and costly repairs.
Signs That My Heavy Truck Needs Repair
Unusual noises: Clunking, grinding, or hissing sounds can indicate issues with the engine, transmission, or other critical systems.
Decreased performance: If your truck struggles to accelerate, has a noticeable drop in power, or shows a decrease in fuel efficiency, it’s time to get it checked.
Warning lights: Never ignore the check engine light or other warning indicators on your dashboard.
Excessive smoke: The exhaust’s black, blue, or white smoke can signal serious engine problems.
Fluid leaks: Puddles of oil, coolant, or other fluids under your truck should be addressed immediately.
Things to Check During a Pre-Trip Inspection
Brakes: Ensure they function correctly and check for unusual sounds or reduced responsiveness.
Tires: Check tire pressure and tread depth and look for visible damage or wear.
Lights: Test all lights, including headlights, taillights, brake lights, and turn signals.
Mirrors and windows: Ensure mirrors are clean and correctly adjusted and windows free from cracks or obstructions.
Emergency equipment: Verify that emergency kits, including first aid kits, fire extinguishers, and warning triangles, are accessible.
