Truck Transmission Specialists address common inquiries about truck transmissions, emphasizing the importance of scheduled maintenance to prevent issues like increased wear, reduced fuel efficiency, slipping gears, overheating, total failure, safety risks, voided warranties, and increased emissions. Regular service every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is advised, but specifics vary by truck. Transmission additives can offer benefits but should be used cautiously and only after consulting a mechanic. Unusual noises in the transmission should be investigated by a professional to prevent further damage. For malfunctioning transmissions, it's crucial to stop driving and seek expert help immediately. Transmission rebuilds are complex and typically best left to professionals to avoid worsening the situation and incurring higher costs.
