Critical Systems We Diagnose and Repair to Protect Uptime

Common Truck Issues We Intercept Before Downtime Escalates

Trucks do not fail suddenly. They lose control in stages.
What appears as a warning light, a minor leak, or a regen fault is often a system compensating for another failure. Once compensation begins, downtime is no longer a possibility. It becomes a trajectory.
At Salazar Semi-Truck Repair Inc., we diagnose failure chains, not isolated symptoms. This is the pattern we see in Dallasโ€“Fort Worth fleet trucks right before unplanned shutdowns:

  • No-start electrical faults (hard no-start)
  • Truck cranks but wonโ€™t start
  • Derate conditions limiting torque and speed
  • DPF / Forced regen keeps coming back
  • Truck stuck in limp mode
  • Truck wonโ€™t build air (air system failure)
  • Air leaks delaying air build
  • Low air pressure DOT risk (brake air)
  • Engine overheating due to restricted cooling flow
  • Cooling system forcing engine protection shutdown
  • Sensor faults triggering limp / derate
  • Check engine light + derate warning
  • Engine shuts down while driving
  • Coolant blowing out / pressurizing system
  • Brake air not holding pressure
  • Battery and charging system failures (drain/no-charge)
  • Electrical short draining batteries overnight
  • Loss of power under load / uphill

Uptime-Critical Repairs

My husband and I want to thank Pedro Salazar for his professionalism and we are grateful for his honesty. He made my husband feel very confident in the diagnosis of his radiator. He was able to do the repairs the same day and get my husband back on the road. We feel very fortunate to have found his shop. Highly recommended.

Took my truck there for a radiator leak during the Tx deep freeze they had limited resources but replaced it for a good price and had me back up and running in no time.. Very friendly and professional great service will definitely use them again!

Took my Truck there for repairs and the Guy's were very knowledgeable and professional. They changed the Kingpin's in the front end,fixed a coolant leak and alignment. The parts and labor was a fair price. I highly recommend this shop!.
