Comprehensive Lift Gate Repair Services in Portsmouth

At American Fleet Service, we understand how critical a well-functioning lift gate is to your daily operations. Whether you're managing a fleet or driving a single truck, a malfunctioning lift gate can cause significant delays and added costs. Our technicians are experienced in diagnosing and repairing all types of lift gate issues, from electrical problems to hydraulic failures.

Our repair services include:

  • Hydraulic System Repairs: If your lift gate is struggling to lift or lower, there might be an issue with the hydraulic system. We inspect and replace hydraulic pumps, cylinders, and hoses to restore your lift gate's functionality.

  • Preventive Maintenance: Regular maintenance is key to preventing costly breakdowns. Our maintenance services include thorough inspections, lubrication of moving parts, and adjustments to ensure optimal performance.

Our shop also provides a free courtesy check on every vehicle that comes in. In addition to addressing the issue you brought your vehicle in for, we’ll check the rest of your vehicle to ensure everything is in good shape.

"This is my second year going to them for my state inspection. My car is older so always a little nervous during inspection time but the staff is always super friendly & helpful both over the phone & in person. So far I have been very pleased with their service; of course cause my car has passed both years 😁. I plan on continuing to go to them for all my future inspections."
