under repair

Currently being mended

Under repair describes something currently being fixed or restored to working condition.

The phrase typically appears on signs or notices indicating temporary unavailability: The elevator is under repair.

Roads, bridges, equipment, and vehicles go under repair when they need maintenance or have broken down.

The construction suggests an ongoing process rather than a completed fix.
