Semi, Trailer or Diesel?
Meet Alan, the Eaton Mechanic for Big Trucks
Alan Bradshaw runs Bradshaw's Mobile Repair out of Eaton, Ohio. He fixes semis, trailers, work trucks, diesel pickups and farm and heavy equipment on the roadside, 24 hours a day. His service area runs about 50 miles around Eaton, and that takes in all of Dayton.
Owner operators and fleets call Alan for breakdowns on I-70 and US-35, for trailer brakes and lights, air systems and diesel no-starts. He brings the tools to the truck so you skip the tow.
Car Care in Dayton Comes With a Few Local Facts
Dayton is hard on brakes, batteries and suspension. Cold winters, road salt and potholes do the most damage.
Dayton is the seat of Montgomery County and had 137,644 people in the 2020 Census. I-70 and I-75 cross just north of the city, and US-35 runs east and west through it. That means a lot of highway miles on local cars.
No E-Check, No Yearly Inspection
Ohio only runs E-Check emissions tests in seven counties in the northeast. Montgomery County is not one of them. Ohio also has no yearly safety inspection for cars. Nobody makes you look at your car each year, so small problems can grow. A check engine light or a soft brake pedal is worth a call before it turns into a bigger bill.
Salt and Freeze and Thaw
Salt keeps the roads open in winter, but it rusts brake parts, lines and exhaust. Freeze and thaw breaks up the pavement, and potholes wear out struts, tie rods and bearings. Have the brakes and front end checked each spring after the salt is gone.
