What are Common Transmission Problems?

The following signs indicate you may have a transmission problem. If you're experiencing any of the problems below, it's recommended you schedule a transmission inspection:

• I'm Having Trouble Changing Gear: If you notice hesitation when shifting gears or find yourself unable to change gears, you may need a new clutch.
• I Hear Whining & Other Strange Sounds: Transmission problems may produce a hum, buzz, or whine. If you hear a clunk when you change gears, this is a strong indicator that the problem is with your transmission.
• I See Transmission Fluid Leaking: If you notice a bright red fluid with a sweet smell leaking from your truck, it's important to seek repair immediately. This is transmission fluid. It's required for your vehicle to operate and prevents the engine from seizing.
• I Smell Something Burning: If your transmission is overheating, it produces a burning smell. A transmission overheats when there's not enough transmission fluid, indicating you may have a transmission fluid leak.

When you need a heavy-duty transmission shop, contact Rugged Fleet Service for service. Your transmission is a major system, and it pays to have an experienced team diagnose transmission problems, perform the correct repair services, and provide swaps.
