North Bay Truck Center

North Bay Truck Center is a diesel truck repair shop based in Fairfield, California, on Illinois Street. You bring the RV to its eight bays rather than waiting on a mobile tech, though it also works with A&T Mobile Truck & Trailer Repair for 24-hour emergency dispatch when a rig cannot be driven in.

This shop works on the chassis, not the living quarters. It handles diesel pusher motorhomes with Cummins or Caterpillar engines and Allison transmissions, plus Class A, B and C coaches on Ford, Chevy and Sprinter platforms: engine diagnostics, aftertreatment work, Allison transmission service, air brakes, steering, suspension, tires and pre-trip inspections after long storage. It does not touch plumbing or appliances, so if your fridge or AC quits, that is a separate call. Mohawk pedestal lifts raise even the largest diesel pushers for undercarriage work. Its service area covers Fairfield, Solano County, the North Bay, Vacaville and Suisun City.

No diagnostic fee, hourly rate or trip fee is published, so ask when you call what a pre-trip check or chassis diagnostic will run. Shop hours are Monday through Friday 7:00 am to 5:30 pm and Saturday 7:30 am to 4:00 pm, closed Sunday. After hours, roadside calls go to A&T Mobile at (800) 434-1205.

North Bay Truck Center has been in Fairfield since 2003, and owner James Barnes is a former CHP inspector. Google rates it 4.4 stars from 232 reviews.

This is a good fit for an owner of a diesel pusher or heavy Class C who needs engine, transmission, brake or tire work done right before a long haul, not someone chasing a house-system problem.
