Your Escalon Truck Transmission Specialist
Though we work on all types of vehicles at Escalon Transmission, our true specialty is trucks. We love working on trucks of all shapes and sizes. Truck owners are a different breed and they are our types of people. From the farmland to the foothills, trucks are a way of life in the San Joaquin Valley. We’re here to help local truck owners with all their transmission maintenance and repair needs.
The Hard Life of a Truck’s Transmission
Truck transmissions tend to take more abuse than regular cars. You may regularly carry heavy loads or tow trailers. The vehicles themselves are larger and more weight means more stress on the transmission system. Truck transmissions are built to be heavy duty and durable, but they are still prone to problems. The harder you drive your truck, the more likely you are to experience transmission trouble at some point down the line.
Specialized Knowledge
It’s nice to have a local truck transmission specialist you can turn to when you need transmission repair services. Our technicians have vast experience with truck transmissions and our shop is equipped to deal with larger pickups and heavy duty vehicles made by manufacturers like Ford, Chevrolet, Dodge/RAM and GMC. We know what to look for when performing transmission inspections, diagnostic tests and road tests. We know how to identify problems and make the necessary repairs. We can also provide full custom transmission rebuild services, backed by our 3 Year, 100,000 Mile Warranty program.
We understand you depend on your truck every day. Whether it’s a family vehicle, a recreational driver or a work truck, we want to help you get back on the road as soon as possible. We’ll provide expert repairs for your truck’s transmission.
Truck Transmission Maintenance
If you want to minimize the risk of major transmission problems that require more significant repairs, you will want to keep up with proper maintenance. How often your truck’s transmission needs maintenance may depend on its age, mileage and how hard you drive it. The more you push your truck, the more often you may want to get its transmission serviced.
Check your transmission fluid level and quality regularly. Be on the look out for transmission fluid leaks, as well. If your fluid level is low or the fluid itself is dirty/dark, you may be due for a standard transmission service. Staying on track with transmission maintenance will help you get better performance out of your truck and provide more durability for the transmission components. Preventative maintenance is the best way to avoid internal damage and potential breakdowns.
