Looking for a truck repair shop in Tampa that comes to the truck instead of taking it off the road for a day? We work on pickups, box trucks, tractor trailers and heavy rigs where they are parked, at the yard, the job site or the shoulder. Heavy truck work runs on a separate heavy truck network, so use the quote line on 800-395-4908 and tell us what it is doing.
Tell us the truck, the load it carries and where it is parked. Call 800-395-4908.
Light truck work, heavy duty truck repair, diesel engine repair service, trailer repair shop work and general repair service, all carried out where the vehicle sits. A truck parked up is a truck not earning, so the work happens at the yard rather than in a bay across town.
We Come to You
Your driveway, your office parking lot, or the side of the road. We bring the workshop to the vehicle.
Diagnostics First
We read the codes and test the part before quoting, so you are not paying to replace something that was working.
Each job below has its own page setting out what is covered, what we bring out and how the call out works for that size of vehicle.
Pickups, vans and box trucks. Diagnostics, brakes, batteries, charging, cooling, suspension and most bolt-on repairs, carried out at the yard or the job site rather than in a bay.
Tractor trailers, semis, big rigs and heavy equipment. Roadside and yard support for larger vehicles, including air systems, trailer work and diesel engine faults.
Hard starting, fuel delivery, injectors, turbo faults and stored codes on diesel pickups, box trucks and heavier vehicles, tested before anything is replaced.
Trailer brakes, air lines and gladhands, lights and grounds, bearings, suspension and landing gear, repaired where the unit is parked.
A list of faults handled in one visit across cars, vans and trucks, each item tested and priced on its own so you choose what gets done.
Downtime is the real cost on a working truck, so we bring the tools and the common parts to the vehicle and tell you honestly when a job genuinely needs a shop with a lift. You can see the full picture of how we work at Mobile Auto Repair Pros of Tampa, which covers what we bring out, the areas we reach and how to book a visit.

The calls that come in most often from truck owners around Tampa, and what each one usually turns out to be.
A diesel that cranks longer than it used to on the first start of the day. On a truck that sits overnight this usually points at fuel draining back through a leaking return line or a tired lift pump rather than anything wrong with the injectors themselves. We test the fuel system under pressure before condemning expensive parts, because replacing injectors on a guess is one of the costliest mistakes made on a diesel.
Air pressure drops overnight and the brakes take an age to release in the morning. That is a leak somewhere in the air system, and on a trailer that spends its life hooked and unhooked it is most often a gladhand seal or a chafed line rather than a valve. We soap the system and find the leak rather than replacing parts in sequence.
A box truck pulling hard to one side with uneven tire wear on the front. Loaded vehicles punish front end components far faster than cars do, and worn kingpins or tie rod ends change both how the truck tracks and how far it needs to stop. We check the front end under load rather than only with the wheels off the ground.
Straight answers to what Tampa drivers ask us before booking a call out.
1
Yes. Pickups, vans and box trucks are handled directly by us, and heavier work on tractor trailers and rigs goes through our heavy duty page where the call out is set up for larger vehicles.
2
That is where most of this work happens. Tell us where the truck is parked and whether there is room to work safely alongside it, and we bring the tools and the common parts out to you.
3
Diesel diagnostics, fuel system testing, glow plugs, sensors, filters and most bolt-on repairs are carried out at the vehicle. Work needing a full teardown is not mobile work and we say so up front.
4
Tampa and the surrounding area, including the industrial routes through Ybor, Port Tampa Bay, Brandon, Riverview and the I-4 and I-75 corridors. Tell us where the truck is and we will say straight away whether we can reach it.
