Hear from Our Customers
Your truck breakdown doesn’t have to derail your schedule. You get a skilled technician at your location within the hour, not after waiting half the day for a tow truck and shop availability.
We handle everything from diesel engine diagnostics to semi brake repair right where you’re stranded. No towing fees. No shop wait times. Just fast, professional repairs that get your rig back to earning money.
That means you keep your delivery commitments, avoid costly penalties, and maintain the reputation that keeps customers calling you back.
We’ve been the go-to mobile repair service for Detroit area truckers since the 1980s. We understand the freight corridors around Village of Grosse Pointe Shores, including the heavy I-75 traffic that keeps commerce moving through Michigan.
Dr. Phillip Marin leads our team with three Ph.D. degrees in Diesel Engineering, Drivetrains, and Metal Alloys. That level of expertise means faster, more accurate diagnoses and repairs that actually fix the problem the first time.
We’re not some fly-by-night operation. We’re your neighbors who’ve built our reputation one successful repair at a time, serving everyone from owner-operators to major fleets throughout Wayne County.
When you call us, we dispatch immediately with a fully equipped service truck. Our technician arrives with diagnostic equipment and the most common parts needed for roadside repairs.
First, we run a complete diagnostic to identify the exact problem. No guessing, no trial and error. We explain what’s wrong and give you a clear estimate before starting any work.
Most repairs happen right on the spot. If we need specialized parts, we coordinate with local suppliers or our shop to minimize your downtime. You get back on the road as quickly as possible, with paperwork ready for your fleet manager or insurance.

We handle every type of semi truck repair you’ll encounter on Michigan roads. Diesel engine problems, brake system failures, electrical issues, transmission troubles, and air system repairs are all in our wheelhouse.
The I-75 corridor through Village of Grosse Pointe Shores sees heavy freight traffic year-round, which means more wear on critical systems. We stock parts for the most common issues affecting trucks running these routes, from ABS sensor repair to reefer trailer repair.
Our mobile welding capabilities mean we can handle structural repairs and emergency fixes that other services can’t touch. Whether you’re hauling auto parts to the Detroit plants or moving freight through the Great Lakes shipping network, we keep you moving.
We typically arrive within 60 minutes of your call, often faster depending on our current location and traffic conditions. Our mobile service trucks are strategically positioned throughout the Detroit metro area to minimize response times.
Unlike national roadside services that might take 3-4 hours to reach you, we’re local and we know these roads. We understand that every hour your truck sits costs you money in missed deliveries and potential penalties from delayed freight.
Our 24/7 availability means you get the same fast response whether you break down at 2 PM on Tuesday or 2 AM on Sunday. We don’t shut down when you need us most, because breakdowns don’t follow business hours.
Our mobile units handle most common roadside repairs including diesel engine diagnostics, semi brake repair, electrical problems, air system issues, and basic transmission work. We carry diagnostic computers that work with all major truck manufacturers.
We also provide mobile welding services for structural repairs, emergency fuel delivery, on-site truck battery jump starts, and semi tire change services. Our trucks stock the most frequently needed parts for semi repairs, so we can often complete the job without delays.
For major engine rebuilds or complex transmission work, we’ll coordinate towing to our shop or a trusted facility. But roughly 80% of breakdowns can be resolved right where you’re stranded, getting you back on the road the same day without expensive towing fees.
Yes, we service all major semi truck brands including Peterbilt, Kenworth, Freightliner, Volvo, Mack, and International. Dr. Marin’s engineering background covers the full spectrum of diesel engines and drivetrain systems used in commercial vehicles.
Our diagnostic equipment interfaces with the electronic systems in both older and newer trucks. Whether you’re running a classic Peterbilt or the latest Freightliner Cascadia, we have the tools and knowledge to diagnose and repair your specific system accurately.
We also work on all types of trailers including dry vans, flatbeds, reefers, and specialized equipment. Our mobile welding capability means we can handle trailer structural issues and emergency repairs that other services can’t address roadside.
Our service call fee covers the dispatch and initial diagnosis. Repair costs depend on the specific problem and parts needed, but we provide a clear estimate before starting any work. No surprise charges or hidden fees that hurt your bottom line.
We offer fleet discounts for companies with multiple vehicles, and we work with most major commercial insurance providers. Our goal is transparent pricing that helps you budget for both emergency repairs and preventive maintenance programs.
Emergency calls don’t carry premium pricing just because it’s after hours or weekends. A brake repair costs the same whether we do it Tuesday afternoon or Saturday night. Fair pricing builds the long-term relationships that keep our business strong in the Detroit trucking community.
Absolutely. We understand DOT regulations and can address compliance issues that might put your truck out of service. Our repairs meet all federal safety standards, and we provide proper documentation for your records and fleet management.
If you receive a roadside inspection citation, we can often resolve the problem immediately to get you back in compliance. We’re familiar with the most common DOT violation points like brake adjustments, lighting issues, tire conditions, and air system problems.
We also provide preventive DOT inspection services to catch potential violations before they sideline your truck. Regular compliance checks are much cheaper than emergency repairs, fines from violations discovered during roadside inspections, or the lost revenue from being placed out of service.
Yes, we provide mobile service throughout the Detroit metro area including all major freight corridors. I-75, I-94, I-96, and US-24 are all within our regular service area, and we’re familiar with the common breakdown locations along these high-traffic routes.
We understand the unique challenges of these corridors, from the heavy loads affecting brake systems to the stop-and-go traffic that’s hard on transmissions and cooling systems. Our parts inventory reflects the most common problems trucks face on these routes.
Our response times are optimized for these major highways because we know how dangerous and expensive it is to be stranded in heavy traffic. We prioritize safety for both our technicians and your drivers while getting repairs completed as quickly as possible to minimize your downtime costs.
