Roadside Assistance

Semi Truck Roadside Assistance — KY/TN I-65 & I-24

Based in Russellville, KY · 75-mile radius

What we cover

  • Air system leaks, brake-chamber failures, governor and dryer issues
  • Battery, starter, alternator, and charging-system diagnosis
  • Blown coolant, fuel, oil, and air lines
  • Tire blowouts, wheel-seal leaks, blown valve stems
  • ECU fault codes, drivability triage, sensor swaps
  • Forced DPF regen when the truck has derated and won't reset

How we handle it

Roadside is its own discipline. We don't show up with a half-empty service truck and a maybe-attitude. The truck is loaded for breakdowns: air-system tools, electrical and brake tools, replacement chambers, slack adjusters, drier cartridges, common harnesses, batteries, scan tools for every major engine maker, and the kind of inventory you'd actually need at 11 PM on the shoulder of I-65. We diagnose first, fix second, and we don't replace parts that aren't bad. If you need a tow because the fix is too big for the shoulder, we'll tell you that — we won't burn your money trying to make a shop-job into a roadside job.

Parts & warranty

Common roadside-failure parts ride on the truck so we can fix it the same trip in most cases. The bigger or unusual parts — specific sensors, ECU modules, custom-bent lines — we'll source as fast as the local parts network can deliver and tell you the wait. Same warranty rule: when we supply the part, you get 1-year parts and labor.

Frequently asked

How fast can you get there?
Inside 30 miles of Russellville, usually under 45 minutes. Bowling Green is around 35–45 minutes. Nashville and Clarksville are 75–90 minutes one-way. We give you the real number when you call, not a marketing number.
Do you work nights and weekends?
We answer the phone any hour. After-hours runs carry a modest premium that we tell you about before you commit. If you can hold safely until morning and money matters, we'll be honest about that too.
What if I'm just past your service radius?
We'll either stretch the call (rare, only when no closer shop is realistic) or we'll refer you to someone we know who can get to you faster. We'd rather lose the call than waste your time.
Will my insurance or warranty cover roadside service?
Some policies do, some don't. We'll provide a detailed invoice you can submit. If you're under a fleet warranty contract, tell us up front so we coordinate with your fleet manager before the work.

  • “Brennan was great — absolutely hire this guy. I own a local tree company in Goodlettsville and one of my work trucks broke down at short notice. He was able to get there within a day or two and diagnose it. My turbo went out on one of my vehicles — when I went to the dealership they told me the wait time was forever and the process would include taking the cab off, which wouldn't work well with my current setup. Within one day he was able to replace my turbo and get it running so I could get back in business. The job was really labor-intensive but he made quick work of it and it runs even better than it did before. He's now the main guy I go to.”

  • “We've used Blacktop Mobile Repair twice this month, and both experiences have been nothing short of amazing. They run a top-notch operation, and it really shows in the quality of service and professionalism they provide. Jacob, the service tech, went above and beyond to make sure our truck was taken care of. He even drove out of his way to make sure he had the exact part needed to fix the truck and get us back on the road quickly. That level of dedication and commitment is hard to find. As a trucking company, downtime is costly, and having a team like Brennan and Jacob we can rely on makes all the difference.”

  • “I've used these guys in the past for an air compressor installation. Jacob was great. And recently my alternator quit on the weekend. I called Jacob on a Saturday and he helped me find one that I could pick up myself. Both times Jacob was knowledgeable & fair. A few months later — again on a Saturday — I wasn't even in their area and I called again to get troubleshooting advice. They are very good at diagnosing. Was able to pinpoint the trouble. Thanks again guys!”
