We understand that clients may overlook truck issues until they worsen, compromising safety and leading to road breakdowns. To prevent such situations, we advise keeping an eye out for the following signs:

​

1. Exhaust smoke colour: Changes in exhaust smoke’s colour can signal engine problems that require attention.
2. Steering difficulties: We’ll assess your tires or power steering system if you encounter challenges while steering.
3. Stalling issues: Sudden stalling during acceleration may indicate damaged spark plugs or fuel filter issues.
4. Difficulty starting: Slower truck startup might indicate battery or starter problems.
5. Mileage changes: Increased fuel consumption could be due to low tire pressure, sticking brake pads, or maintenance requirements.
6. Brake problems: Promptly address any braking system issues for safety reasons.

Some of the most common trucking accidents involve issues with the tires, lights, or brakes. Balding and rotting tires can cause severe dangers while driving, and damaged lights on the sides of your truck can prevent other drivers from seeing the actual size of your vehicle. Faulty brakes can prevent you from being able to stop in time to avoid an accident.

If your commercial truck hasn’t seen a repair shop in a while, we recommend getting your truck checked out. Your safety and the safety of others on the road need to ensure your truck is properly maintained. Contact us today to schedule an appointment.
