Semi Truck Repairs That Come to You
Roadside repair
If your tractor quits on the road day or night, call us before you call a wrecker. Many breakdowns can be fixed right where the truck stopped. Learn more about our emergency roadside service.
Computer diagnostics
Check-engine lights, active fault codes, derates and aftertreatment warnings all start with a proper scan. We connect to the truck’s computer on site, find the cause and repair what we can before we leave. See mobile truck diagnostics.
Preventive maintenance at your terminal
Our fleet PM service covers an oil change with a new filter, fuel filters, grease on kingpins, U-joints, steering and suspension points, a transmission fluid and filter change when it’s due, and a bumper-to-bumper inspection that includes a visual brake check. We keep track of each tractor’s due date and call you when it comes up.
120-point DOT inspections
Annual DOT inspections are done in your yard, so a tractor doesn’t lose half a day driving to a shop and sitting in line.
Welding and fabrication
Cracked brackets, broken mounts and damaged steel on tractors and the trailers behind them can be welded on site. When a part isn’t available, we can fabricate one. See mobile welding and mobile trailer repair.
Why Owner-Operators and Fleets Call Us
- No surprise fees. Call for pricing: (704) 317-6161.
- Price before work. You approve the labor and parts price before we turn a wrench.
- Local. We’re based in Monroe, so Union County and east Charlotte are close to home.
- Less downtime. Fixing the truck where it sits avoids the tow bill and the wait for a shop bay.

What to Have Ready When You Call
- The tractor: year, make and model, and engine if you know it.
- The symptom: what happened, what the dash is showing and any fault codes the driver can read off.
- Exact location: address, or road name, direction of travel and nearest exit or mile marker.
- Gate and yard access: gate code, guard shack instructions and the door or row where the truck is parked.
When Mobile Repair Isn’t the Right Fit
Mobile repair handles a large share of semi problems, but not everything. Internal engine rebuilds, major drivetrain work, collision damage and anything that needs a lift or heavy shop equipment belong in a full shop. If that’s where your truck needs to go, we’ll tell you after diagnosing it rather than guessing. We’re open 24/7. Daytime dispatch is Monday through Thursday, 8 AM to 6 PM, and Friday, 8 AM to 5:30 PM ET. Nights, weekends, and Friday after 5:30 PM are after-hours emergency service; payment is required before dispatch. Call (704) 317-6161.
Areas We Cover for Semi Repair
Most of our semi calls come from Monroe, Charlotte, Indian Trail, Matthews, Harrisburg and Indian Land, SC, and from the freight lanes along the US-74, Monroe Expressway and I-485 corridor. The full list is on our service areas page.
Semi Truck Repair FAQs
Can you fix my semi on the side of the road?
Often, yes. We diagnose the problem where the truck is and fix what we can on the spot. If the repair needs a shop, we’ll explain why and what’s involved.
How quickly can a mechanic reach my truck?
The typical daytime ETA is 60 to 90 minutes, and after-hours arrival is quoted when you call. Most trucks are back on the road the same day.
Do you do PM on semis at our terminal?
Yes. Our PM includes an oil change with a new filter, fuel filters, greasing, and a bumper-to-bumper inspection with a visual brake check. We track due dates and call you.
What does a service call cost?
You approve the labor and parts. Call for pricing: (704) 317-6161.
Can I reach you after hours?
We’re open 24/7. Daytime dispatch is Monday through Thursday, 8 AM to 6 PM, and Friday, 8 AM to 5:30 PM ET. Nights, weekends, and Friday after 5:30 PM are after-hours emergency service; payment is required before dispatch. Call (704) 317-6161.
