Common Signs Your Truck Needs Repair

  • Engine Warning Lights or Loss of Power
    If the check engine light is on or your truck feels sluggish, it may signal engine trouble, fuel system faults, or sensor issues. Ignoring these warnings can lead to breakdowns or costly engine damage.
  • Strange Noises, Vibrations, or Smoke
    Unusual sounds like grinding, knocking, or hissing often point to mechanical or exhaust issues. Vibrations or visible smoke from the engine or tailpipe require immediate inspection.
  • Brake Responsiveness Issues
    If your truck takes longer to stop, feels spongy when braking, or pulls to one side, your brake system could be failing. This is a serious safety concern and should be repaired right away.
  • Uneven Tyre Wear or Suspension Sagging
    Worn tyres on one side or a noticeable lean in your truck suggest misalignment, axle, or suspension problems. These issues affect stability, fuel economy, and MOT compliance.
  • Fluid Leaks Under the Vehicle
    Leaks under your truck may come from the engine, gearbox, brake lines, or coolant system. Any visible fluid on the ground is a red flag that should be checked immediately to prevent further damage.

If you’re noticing any of these issues, book a professional inspection today.
