Same-Day Roadside Truck & Trailer Repair

When a truck or trailer breaks down, the meter starts running. The load is late, the driver is stuck, and a tow to a shop can cost more than the repair. Red Rover Service sends a mobile technician to the truck instead. We repair commercial trucks and trailers on the shoulder, in a parking lot, at a customer’s dock or in your yard, around Charlotte, Monroe and the surrounding area.

Our Hours

Monday through Thursday: 8 AM to 6 PM ET
Friday: 8 AM to 5:30 PM ET

We’re closed outside those hours. Call 704-317-6161 during business hours and our team will take your call. Call as early as you can. The sooner we hear from you, the better our chance of getting a tech to you the same day.

Breakdowns We Fix at the Roadside

• Tires: flats and blowouts on steer, drive and trailer positions. See mobile truck tire repair.
• No-starts: jump-starts, batteries, starters and alternators.
• Air and brake problems: air leaks, brake chambers, slack adjusters and lines. See commercial brake repair.
• Engine trouble: check-engine lights, computer diagnostics and DEF system faults. See diesel engine repair. Learn more about check-engine light diagnostics.
• Electrical and lighting: wiring, lights and connectors that would put you out of service.
• Liftgates that won’t raise, hold or stow. See liftgate repair.
• Welding: cracked brackets, mounts and trailer damage with mobile welding.

We work on commercial vehicles only, with gas or diesel engines, from box trucks to tractors and trailers. If a problem can’t be fixed safely where the truck sits, we’ll tell you straight.

What to Tell Us

1. Where you are. On an interstate, give the highway, direction of travel, and the nearest exit number or mile marker. On a local road, give the nearest cross street or business. At a yard or dock, give the street address and any gate instructions.
2. What you’re driving. Truck or trailer type, make and model, and whether you’re loaded.
3. What happened. Symptoms, warning lights, fault codes, and anything you heard or saw before it quit. For a tire, give the position and the size from the sidewall.
4. How to reach the driver. A cell number for whoever is with the truck.

While you wait, get as far off the road as you safely can, turn on your hazard lights and set out your warning triangles.
