Both lines are answered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Drivers, dispatchers and breakdown services can call at 3 a.m. on a holiday and get a real person who can send help.
From Nashville we cover about 100 miles along I-65, I-40 and I-24. From Cedar Rapids we cover about 100 miles including Iowa City, Oxford and the I-80 and I-380 corridors.
What it covers
Breakdown diagnosis
We find out why the truck stopped before we start swapping parts.
Electrical failures
Starters, alternators, batteries and wiring that leave a truck dead on the shoulder.
Cooling system repairs
Hoses, water pumps and leaks that cause overheating, repaired on site when it is safe to do so.
Air and brake problems
Air leaks, brake chambers and lines that put a unit out of service.
Tires
Flats and blown tires on tractors and trailers, handled where the unit sits.
Jump starts, lockouts, fuel
Dead batteries, keys locked in the cab, and fuel brought to a truck that ran dry or gelled up.
How it works
Call the line for your area
Give us the unit type, location (highway and mile marker helps most) and what the truck is doing.
We dispatch a mechanic
A tech heads to the unit with tools and common parts on board.
Diagnose on site
We find the cause and tell the driver or dispatcher what it will take.
Repair or plan
Most roadside fixes get done where the truck sits. If a job truly needs a shop, we tell you right away so you can plan.
Why drivers and fleets call us
Downtime costs money every hour a load sits. A mobile mechanic skips the tow, the drive to a shop and the line of trucks ahead of you.
We are honest about what can be done roadside. Big shop jobs, like full radiator replacements, belong in a shop. We will not start a job on the shoulder that should not be done there, and we will tell you so up front.
Third party breakdown services and dispatchers work with us because we pick up the phone at any hour and keep them updated until the unit is moving.
How pricing works
Every breakdown is different, so we price each job on what it needs: the repair, the parts, how far we travel to reach the unit and the time of the call.
We explain what we found and what the fix involves before we start, so the driver, dispatcher or fleet can approve it. Repeat customers and fleet accounts get special rates.
Weather and road notes
In Middle Tennessee, summer heat on I-65 and I-40 pushes cooling systems hard, and sudden storms bring wiring and lighting problems.
In Iowa, winter is the busy season. Cold starts, frozen air lines, gelled fuel and weak batteries pile up once the temperature drops along I-80 and I-380.
Common questions
Are you really open 24/7?
Yes. Both lines are answered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, including nights, weekends and holidays. Tennessee: (615) 379-8016. Iowa: (319) 668-0071.
What should I have ready when I call?
The unit type, your location (highway and mile marker, exit or address) and what the truck is doing. A callback number for the driver helps too.
Do you tow?
No. We do not tow, and we do not work on cars or pickups. We repair semi trucks, trailers and box trucks where they sit.
Can every repair be done on the roadside?
No. We do the repairs that are safe and practical on site. Big shop jobs, like a full radiator replacement, need a shop, and we will tell you that up front.
