Broken Down Right Now?

Do these three things — in order.

If your truck or trailer is down, every minute matters. Here’s exactly what to do to get a mobile mechanic to you fastest.

1 Get Safe

Pull off & flag the scene

If you can, get to the shoulder or an exit ramp. Hazards on, triangles or flares out (10/100/200 ft for DOT compliance). Stay buckled and behind the barrier if you’re on a live interstate.

2 Call Dispatch

Call (216) 200-8430

Answered live, 24/7. Tell us your location (mile marker, exit, or cross-street), your truck/trailer type, and what’s wrong. We confirm an ETA on the call — no callback queue.

What We Fix On-Scene

Most emergencies don’t need a tow.

Our service trucks carry the parts, tools, and diagnostic gear to handle 70–80% of breakdowns right where you sit. Here’s what we handle 24/7 for Class 4–8 trucks and trailers.

Engine No-Start & Derates

Diagnostic scanning, sensor faults, DEF/DPF derate clearing, fuel-system and electrical troubleshooting to get you out of limp mode.

Tow-Required? We Coordinate It

If a repair truly needs shop equipment, we flag it in the first 15–30 minutes, charge only the service call, and arrange a heavy-duty tow.

I had a great experience with GTS Roadside Service. These guys are very fast and professional. Their ETA was accurate, and they arrived exactly when they said they would. They changed my starter on a Freightliner in 2 hrs even in harsh winter weather outside! What I really appreciated is that they don’t overcharge — their prices are very reasonable. Honest, reliable.

Best experience I could’ve imagined after a breakdown. They kept in contact with me during the whole process. The mechanic even picked me up at the hotel during a snowstorm. Went out of his way to get an aftermarket part for my truck and did the repair in a timely manner. Would definitely call them again. Thanks again!

Had issues with regen on truck. Had another company come out before these guys and they wouldn’t do anything — sounded like lack of experience. Then I had these guys at GTS come out and had my driver driving down the road within an hour. Great service and customer service — highly recommend!

Emergency FAQ

What drivers ask when the truck goes down.

Is GTS really available 24 hours a day?
Yes. GTS Truck and Trailer Roadside Repair operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year — including holidays, overnight, and severe weather. Call (216) 200-8430 anytime to dispatch a mobile diesel technician.
How fast can an emergency truck mechanic reach me?
Most heavy-duty roadside mechanics arrive in 45 to 90 minutes depending on traffic and location. GTS averages on-scene response under 60 minutes across the Cleveland metro and the surrounding I-77, I-80, I-90, and I-271 corridors.
What should I do while I wait for the mechanic?
Get to the shoulder or an exit if you safely can, switch on hazards, and set out reflective triangles or flares (10, 100, and 200 feet behind the vehicle for DOT compliance). Stay buckled and behind the barrier on a live interstate. Keep your phone on — the tech may call for landmarks or a mile marker.
Can you really fix my truck on the side of the road?
Yes. Mobile diesel mechanics handle 70–80% of breakdowns on-scene — including air leaks, no-starts, fuel issues, tire replacement, electrical faults, jump starts, derate clearing, and minor brake repairs. If a repair truly needs shop equipment, we identify it within the first 15–30 minutes so you don’t pay for wasted time.
How much does emergency roadside truck repair cost?
Mobile heavy-duty service calls in Northeast Ohio typically run $150–$250 plus parts and labor. Tire replacements range $400–$800. GTS gives a transparent estimate before any work begins — call (216) 200-8430 for a quote on your situation.
What areas do you cover for after-hours service?
GTS serves all of Northeast Ohio from our Solon base — including Cleveland, Akron, Youngstown, Canton, Elyria, Mentor, and the I-80, I-90, I-77, I-271, and I-480 corridors plus the Ohio Turnpike — 24 hours a day.
Do you take fleet accounts and national fleet cards after hours?
Yes. GTS works with most major fleet payment programs including Comdata, EFS, T-Chek, and direct fleet billing — around the clock. Email [email protected] to set up a national account with priority emergency dispatch.
What if you can’t fix it roadside?
If a repair requires shop equipment, we identify it within the first 15–30 minutes, charge only the service call, and coordinate a heavy-duty tow to a qualified shop — saving you wasted hours waiting on a fix that was never going to happen on the shoulder.
