We answer 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Drivers, dispatchers, and breakdown services can call the same number at 3 a.m. on a holiday and get a real person who can send help.
From our Iowa hub we cover Cedar Rapids, Linn County, and the I-80 and I-380 corridors. From our Tennessee hub we cover Nashville, Davidson County, and the surrounding counties along I-65 and I-40.
What our 24/7 emergency roadside truck repair 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.
Jump starts and lockouts
Dead batteries and keys locked in the cab.
Fuel delivery
Ran dry or gelled up? We can bring fuel to the truck.
How it works in Cedar Rapids, IA and Nashville, TN
Call the 24/7 line
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 call Wells Mobile
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.
What affects the price
Every breakdown is different, so we price each job on what it needs. The main factors are the type of repair, the parts required, 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.
Weather and road notes
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.
In Middle Tennessee, summer heat on I-65 and I-40 pushes cooling systems hard, and sudden storms bring wiring and lighting problems.
24/7 Roadside Repair questions
Are you really open 24/7?
Yes. We answer and dispatch 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, including nights, weekends, and holidays.
What information 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 work with breakdown dispatch services?
Yes. Much of our roadside work comes through fleets and third party breakdown services. Call the same 24/7 number.
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.
Which areas do you cover?
Cedar Rapids and Linn County in Iowa, including the I-80 and I-380 corridors, plus Nashville and the surrounding counties in Tennessee along I-65 and I-40.
