4-5 steps high is at least 3ft. Put that in perspective to the scale of the truck and plus the fact you are bashing on solid ground. With all that crash landing on hard ground from several feet up you could be mashing up the bearings.
Have you checked or changed all the bearings in the vehicle lately? Can you roll the truck easily by hand or does it seem like you have to push it? When you take out the motor does the vehicle roll freely? What may seem to be a motor problem could just be a binding problem elsewhere.
Not saying that is the problem for sure but just suggesting that it could be.
