✅ Yes — many mechanics report early failure in:

Sindh, South Punjab, and Balochistan due to:

High ambient heat over 40°C

Constant overloading

Issues:

Gear oil breakdown

Clutch overheat

Warped o r cracked gear components

🌡️ Lack of any dedicated transmission cooling system is a contributing factor. The system isn’t built for sustained stress in Pakistani conditions.
