Call 224-278-9872 and tell us what the truck is doing and where it's sitting — the Healy Road yard, the lot off Route 25, a shoulder on I-90. If it still rolls, you're eighty-three miles out and we'll have the part pulled before you get here. If it doesn't, we load the truck and come to you — about an hour and forty. Either way you hear the plan on the phone, because at that distance a wrong guess costs a day, and a day parked is freight you didn't move and a Wednesday load-out you missed.
Eighty-three miles is a real drive, so here's exactly what it looks like — the run down, where East Dundee haulers are usually coming from, and what happens when you pull into the yard.
East Dundee is inside our range. Call 224-278-9872 with what the truck is doing and where it's parked — Healy Road, the truck park off Route 25, the I-90 shoulder — and we roll with car-hauler parts on the service truck. Response runs about an hour and forty. More on how it works.
Most of it is the specialty work — hydraulics, cylinders, fifth wheels, bushings, deck and electrical faults that generalist shops guess at. But at eighty-three miles, one trip should clear the whole list: brakes, tires, suspension, diagnostics and emissions, aftertreatment, A/C, welding and PM all run through the same shop. One stop, one shop, no hauling the fleet around to three different places.
Deck, hydraulics, fifth wheel, ramps and everything else that makes a hauler a hauler — the work most shops send you away for.
Leaking, drifting or dead cylinders, hoses and lines rebuilt or replaced with the parts already on the shelf.
Repair, repositioning and replacement — the wear that gets missed until it becomes a problem on the highway.
Lights, wiring, alternators and starters traced back to the actual fault instead of parts thrown at it.
Codes read and traced to what's actually causing them, plus OBD and CARB testing when it's time.
Forced regens, DEF dosing valves and aftertreatment faults sorted before the truck derates on you.
Scheduled service with a real inspection attached, so small things get caught while the truck is already stopped.
Pads, shoes, drums, air system and adjustment — inspected honestly and replaced only where it's warranted.
Air bags, shocks, bushings and pins on tractor and trailer, so the load rides right and nothing wears out early.
Cracks, mounts, brackets and deck structure repaired in-house instead of farmed out to another shop.
Because closer isn't the same as capable. Passing twenty shops that can do brakes doesn't help when the deck won't lift — that job needs someone who has run this equipment and has the cylinder, the hose and the bushing already on the shelf. That's the whole difference between same day in most cases, next day at the latest and sitting through a parts order while next Wednesday's units go to somebody else's truck.
Diagnosed today, fixed today — same day in most cases, next day at the latest.
The hydraulic, cylinder and fifth-wheel parts most shops have to order are already on the shelf.
Diagnosed by someone who ran car haulers for about ten years, so the real problem gets found the first time.
Explain the problem the way you'd explain it to another driver — in English, Russian, or Spanish.
A straight quote before the work starts, and no parts sold that the truck didn't need.
Minutes off the corridor, so getting to the shop doesn't cost you more time than the repair.
None of these came from East Dundee. They came from operators who had a closer shop and drove past it anyway — some rolled in, some we went out and got.
My husband came to this shop today right after his trip, around 4 PM on Friday! , in an urgent situation. They took him in immediately and repaired everything within just an hour — very professional and fast. We were also pleasantly surprised by how reasonable the price was. We’re truly grateful for the professionalism, quick service, and overall great experience. Thank you so much! Highly recommend!
Had an electrical problem on one of our car hauler trailers on a Saturday. The guys at Fleet SC said to stop by so they could take a look, they got the driver rolling again in no time. life savers before the long weekend. They didn't over charge or anything, very fair and honest, helpful guys. Will definitely save them for the future.
Great place , professional mechanics, easy in and out , reasonable prices, bilingual customer service ( English, Russian) the company is reliable in all sectors, customer lounge with coffee and snacks. Enjoyed my experience!
What East Dundee operators ask before they make the run.
Send us what the truck needs and we'll come back with a straight estimate — and confirm the parts are on the shelf before you spend five and a half hours on the road.
Tell us what it's doing and where it's sitting. If it still rolls, you're an hour and forty out and we'll have the part waiting. If it doesn't, we're on our way — about an hour and forty to East Dundee.
Five minutes off the interstate and about ten from where I-80, I-94 and I-90 come together, with a gated lot for trucks that have to sit.
