Peterbilt Repair: 579, 389, 567 and PACCAR MX Engines

Peterbilt builds everything from the classic 389 to the fleet-focused 579. Truck Pit Stop handles the diagnosis, the estimate and the repair for both under one roof in Matthews, NC.

Peterbilt models we work on

579 and 589 highway tractors, the classic 389, and 567 vocational trucks.

PACCAR and Cummins engines

Newer Peterbilts mostly run the PACCAR MX-13 or MX-11, and many still run a Cummins X15. Transmissions range from the PACCAR TX-12 automated manual to Eaton Fuller 10, 13 and 18-speed manuals. We work on every Peterbilt transmission, replacing the clutch, sensors and other failed parts or swapping the unit (transmission repair).

Common Peterbilt work
