If you can detect an issue early, you can help prevent bigger headaches and complications. If your truck is experiencing any of the problems below, please contact Curri immediately.
Brake Failure
Brake issues can create safety hazards. You must prioritize regular brake inspections. Unfortunately, a considerable number of things can go wrong with your brakes. Your truck will give you a number of warnings, so look out for these:
Your truck feels like it’s pulling to the right or the left.
The timing of your brakes feels off.
You’re leaking brake fluid.
The steering wheel vibrates when you brake.
The pads are squealing.
Transmission Issues
Transmissions endure a lot of wear and tear. Your trusty check engine light will probably go on, but mechanical problems will manifest with some physical symptoms. It's important to catch any transmission problems before you breakdown.
A few of the signs to look out for:
The transmission is leaking fluid or is running low.
You smell something burning or sense overheating.
The transmission is loud while in neutral.
Your transmission refuses to respond.
The car slips out of gear while you’re driving.
Overheating Engine
An overheating engine is one of the most common problems with box trucks because there are so many potential causes. It could be a bad hose, a blown gasket, or a fan clutch. If you ignore it for too long you could permanently damage the truck. Catch it before things go too far:
Your cooling system is leaking.
The water pump is making a high-pitched squeaking noise.
The thermostat is failing.
Your coolant levels are low.
There’s steam coming out of your tailpipe.
