Methods and apparatus to identify ride height sensor discrepancies are disclosed. An example apparatus disclosed herein includes machine readable instructions and programmable circuitry to at least one of instantiate or execute the machine readable instructions to compare a first sensor output of a first ride height sensor of a vehicle to a second sensor output of a second ride height sensor of the vehicle, increment a discrepancy counter based on the comparison of the first sensor output and the second sensor output, and generate an indication to service at least one of the first ride height sensor or the second ride height sensor after the discrepancy counter satisfies a threshold.
