$1800 for replacing two tires 23 miles from them inside the Madison weigh station. The recap tires were about $600 and the labor, service call about $1200. I am in this business for 28 years and I also own a repair shop. But this is insane. Ripp off. Stay away.

Drove into Block Diesel with my transmission grinding to shit. They asked me to park on the side and they would get to me as soon as possible. In the meantime, I'm looking at these reviews on their website. To make a long story short - THEY DID A BEAUTIFUL JOB! I have been back several times since. Hack Truck Drivers who panic when their poorly maintained truck falls apart on the side of the road and expect service on the cheap, and bad mouth someone else...Take responsibility for your equipment clown! Block Diesel is a pro... read more

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY...... My driver had a leaking water pump. Quoted me a price of around $400 and we agreed. Their mechanic took twice as long as they stated so therefore they charged me double what was agreed on. My truck made it less than 3 miles down the road when my belt tensioner gave out. (They said it went out due to normal wear and tear) There was nothing wrong with it before they worked on my truck. They sent a service truck out and charged me another $600 to fix what they broke. COMPLETE CROOKS........Th... read more

Wish I would have read previous reviews. Needed a starter on the road. Said they had to tow to their shop to change. I should have canceled then. $2200 for a $300 starter. Never use this shop.

Beware: what they tell you on the phone is not the rate you will get. They quoted me about 1-2 hours of work, that turned into \$551. Besides that, they sent a person who has never done this work before, so we effectively paid for their training. If you have no other choice, be prepared to pay an arm and a leg. If you have any other choice at all, go with someone else who would be honest and will not be charging you for training their people. Horrible place to do business with!
