Hear from Our Customers
You’re not just getting a quick fix. You’re getting a proper repair that prevents the same problem from sidelining you again next week.
Our mobile service means no towing fees, no waiting for shop availability, and no leaving your rig in an unfamiliar location. We bring the expertise directly to your breakdown location, whether you’re on I-75, Telegraph Road, or anywhere in the Grosse Ile area.
When we’re done, you drive away knowing the job was done right the first time. That’s the difference between a band-aid solution and professional truck repair that actually solves your problem.
We’ve been handling emergency breakdowns in the Detroit metro area since the 1980s. We’ve seen every type of failure, from simple electrical issues to major engine problems.
What sets us apart is our technical depth. Dr. Phillip Marin brings three Ph.D. degrees in Diesel Engineering, Drivetrains, and Metal Alloys to every service call. That level of expertise means accurate diagnosis and repairs that last.
The Grosse Ile area sits right in the heart of Michigan’s freight corridor, with trucks moving goods between Detroit, Toledo, and beyond. We understand the pressure you’re under to keep moving, and we’ve built our service around that reality.
When you call, we dispatch immediately with the right technician and equipment for your specific problem. No guessing, no multiple trips back for parts.
Our technician arrives with diagnostic equipment to identify the exact issue. We explain what’s wrong, what it takes to fix it, and give you a clear price before any work begins. No surprises, no inflated emergency rates.
Most repairs happen on-site. If your truck needs shop-level work, we’ll arrange towing to a trusted facility and coordinate the repair process. Either way, you stay informed and in control of the timeline and costs.

We handle everything from emergency jump-starts to complex brake system repairs. Diesel engine diagnostics, ABS sensor replacement, reefer trailer repairs, and on-site tire changes are all part of our standard mobile service.
The Grosse Ile location puts you close to major shipping routes, but it also means you’re dealing with heavy traffic, tight delivery schedules, and the constant pressure to keep moving. Our service is built around those realities.
Whether you’re an owner-operator managing one truck or a fleet manager responsible for dozens, we provide the same level of professional service. Fleet accounts get priority scheduling and volume pricing that makes sense for your operation.
Our typical response time to the Grosse Ile area is 45-60 minutes from your call. We maintain service vehicles strategically positioned throughout the Detroit metro area to minimize response times.
For true emergencies, especially during peak shipping hours, we can often arrive faster. We understand that in trucking, time is money, and every hour of downtime affects your bottom line.
Our dispatch system prioritizes calls based on location, severity, and safety concerns. If you’re stranded in traffic or in an unsafe location, we’ll get to you as quickly as possible.
We can handle most common breakdowns right at your location. This includes brake adjustments and ABS repairs, diesel engine diagnostics and many engine repairs, electrical system problems, tire changes and wheel bearing replacement, and basic transmission issues.
Our mobile units carry diagnostic computers, welding equipment, and a comprehensive inventory of common parts. For major engine rebuilds or transmission overhauls, we’ll arrange towing to an appropriate facility.
The goal is always to get you moving again without a tow truck. About 70% of the breakdowns we respond to are resolved on-site, saving you both time and money.
Yes, we service all major truck manufacturers including Freightliner, Peterbilt, Kenworth, Volvo, Mack, and International. Our diagnostic equipment works with all modern truck computer systems.
Dr. Marin’s engineering background covers the fundamental systems that are common across all truck brands. Whether it’s a Caterpillar, Cummins, or Detroit diesel engine, the core principles are the same.
For specialized systems or newer technology, we maintain relationships with dealer service departments and can coordinate warranty work when appropriate. The key is getting you the right solution, not just the quickest one.
Our emergency service call starts at $150, which includes the first hour of diagnostic time. Additional labor is charged at $125 per hour, with parts at cost plus a reasonable markup.
We don’t inflate prices for emergency calls or after-hours service. The same rate applies whether it’s 2 PM on Tuesday or 2 AM on Sunday. You’re already dealing with the stress and cost of a breakdown; we won’t add to that burden.
For fleet customers, we offer volume pricing and priority scheduling. Regular maintenance accounts also receive preferred pricing on emergency calls. We believe in building long-term relationships, not maximizing profit on your worst day.
Absolutely. Reefer repairs are a specialty service we provide, including compressor issues, electrical problems, and refrigeration system diagnostics. We understand how critical temperature control is for your cargo.
Our technicians are trained on major reefer units including Carrier Transicold, Thermo King, and other common systems. We carry refrigerant, belts, and common electrical components on our service vehicles.
For complex refrigeration problems, we work with specialized reefer shops to ensure proper repair. But for most common issues, we can diagnose and repair the problem on-site, keeping your perishable cargo safe and your delivery schedule intact.
Yes, we provide roadside service throughout the I-75 corridor, Telegraph Road, and other major routes in the Detroit metro area. This includes service calls in Grosse Ile, Lincoln Park, Wyandotte, and surrounding communities.
Highway breakdowns get priority response due to safety concerns and traffic impact. We coordinate with state police when necessary and can provide emergency lighting and traffic control while making repairs.
Our service area extends throughout Wayne County and into neighboring counties. If you’re within our coverage area, we’ll respond regardless of the location or time of day. Safety and getting you back on the road are our top priorities.
