When your truck breaks down on I-75 or you’re stuck with a flat tire on Swan Creek Road, every minute costs you money. You don’t have time to sit around waiting for some national company to maybe show up in three hours.
That’s exactly why drivers throughout Monroe County call J&J Truck & Trailer Repair. We get there fast, fix what needs fixing, and get you back to making money instead of losing it. No runaround, no surprise charges, just professional emergency roadside service when you actually need it.
Whether it’s a dead battery at 2 AM or your semi overheating during rush hour, our mobile repair team has the tools and expertise to handle it right there on the spot. Because the only thing worse than breaking down is waiting around all day for help that might not even show up.

Dr. Phillip Marin leads our team with three Ph.D. degrees in Diesel Engineering, Drivetrains, and Metal Alloys. That’s not just impressive credentials – it’s the kind of deep technical knowledge that means we can diagnose and fix problems other shops might struggle with. Our ASE certified technicians combine that expertise with the urgency that comes from understanding how much money you lose every hour you’re sitting still.

We understand that truck breakdowns don’t wait for business hours. Whether it’s 3 AM on a Sunday or Christmas morning, if you’re stranded, we’ll dispatch a technician to your location. Our emergency response team is always ready because we know how much money you lose for every hour you’re sitting still.
Many companies claim 24/7 service but have limited availability or long response times during off-hours. We maintain full staffing around the clock specifically because emergencies happen when you least expect them, and that’s exactly when you need help the most.
Our pricing is straightforward and competitive, with no hidden fees or surprise charges. Basic services like jump-starts typically run $89-150, flat tire changes $89-200, and fuel delivery $89-150 plus the cost of fuel. Towing rates start at $149 plus mileage.
We always provide a clear estimate before starting any work, so you know exactly what you’re paying. Dr. Marin believes in transparent pricing because we know truckers are running tight margins and need to budget accurately.
Unlike some national companies that hit you with membership fees, service charges, and mileage penalties, we charge fair rates for the actual work performed. Many of our regular customers find our pay-per-use pricing more economical than expensive annual memberships, especially when you factor in our faster response times and local expertise.
Absolutely. Our mobile repair units are fully equipped to handle heavy-duty truck repairs right at your location. Dr. Phillip Marin’s three Ph.D. degrees in Diesel Engineering, Drivetrains, and Metal Alloys give us expertise that most roadside services simply don’t have.
We can diagnose and repair engine problems, transmission issues, brake system failures, electrical problems, and hydraulic system malfunctions without needing to tow your truck to a shop. Our technicians carry advanced diagnostic equipment and a comprehensive inventory of parts for the most common heavy-duty truck repairs.
When a repair can’t be completed roadside, we handle the heavy-duty towing to our Detroit facility or your preferred repair shop. We work on everything from single-axle trucks to full tractor-trailer combinations, and our equipment can handle vehicles up to 80,000 pounds gross weight.
The biggest difference is Dr. Phillip Marin’s unique qualifications – three Ph.D. degrees in Diesel Engineering, Drivetrains, and Metal Alloys. You won’t find that level of technical expertise at any other roadside assistance company in Michigan.

That local knowledge translates to faster response times and better service.
Most importantly, we understand that your truck is your livelihood. When you’re broken down, you’re losing money every minute. We treat every call with the urgency it deserves because we know what’s at stake. Our family-owned business has built its reputation on getting drivers back on the road fast, and that’s exactly what we deliver.
