Long story short -Absolutely the best road service assistance in the country by far!!!!!1.) driver run out the fuel 50miles away in 3am. AJ show up in 55min even the truck was out of his radius with 20galons prime the truck for 20min and have me going with very reasonable price !!!2.) I don t know if God made it happen but 4weeks after my water pump was leaking and truck shoot off again close to Vero beach because of regeneration.. AJ show up right away and REPLACED WATER PUMP on the spot , drain the coolant, etc in the record time .. Also force regeneration and have me back in the road in less than 3 hours. Again reasonable price !!! Don t look further if you need assistance in the area. AJ is a magician and life saver!! Certified freighterliner mechanic who learned his business from the best. If he can t fix it Delarship will not either!! God bless him and his family

Check engine light came on in Texas then at 10pm on a Friday night AC blows hot. These guys showed up in 60 minutes of the call and fixed the CEL (DEF regen issue). The AC needed the compressor replaced. Mechanic delayed by wreck but he replaced part the following day and we're back on the road. Barely got a 34 reset in! I'd love to take him home to Tennessee and make him part of my team but will use again if in Florida.

My Class A DP would not stay running. Brute Force had AJ come out within 1 hour. Where I thought it might be the Batteries or Alternator. AJ. "Fantastic Diagnostic Skills" narrowed it down IN A VERY SHORT TIME to a relay in the ignition circuit that when it ran for 5 minutes it would open shutting the engine down. Then a couple minutes later it would close allowing thins to work again. THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH.Service: Electrical

I live on a Diesel Pusher Motor Home, about half a year in Florida. Have had 2 separate Cummins engine issues, one needing Trouble code review and reset after fixing DEF issue. Second one involving after cooler hose. I called and he came and fixed issues as promised. He is dependable, knows his trade and can get the parts and do the repairs. I value having his tel. Number, and when trouble arises, I call and he comes and takes care of the problem. I highly recommend that you add his tel. Number and call when you have a diesel related issue and need it resolved.

OMG!!! Is literally my expression. One of the best roadside/maintenance companies I ve had experiences with. Had an electrical problem and thanks to AJ it was no problem. Problem was resolved in 2 hours and with professionalism. I recommend this company to any truck companies or owner operators. Thanks again!

Cannot say enough good things about our experience. We have a '98 diesel pusher that has been parked almost a year waiting on our new home to be finished. We had the fuel filters changed as we had issues starting-put fuel stabilizer in after his recommendation-(runs like brand new), we asked that the belt tensioner be replaced since it was somewhat slipping and noisy, had him check out our Onan 7500 generator and he did so much more with regards to giving us practical tips to improve performance. Very detailed in his billing letting you know what you are charged for. AND he comes to you!!!!Great Workmanship!Services: Exhaust, Auto engine diagnostic, Oil change

The team at Brute Force is a class act. Highly recommended mechanic for all your diesel needs. AJ the technician is an amazing guy and so knowledgeable. If I owned a business, AJ would be the tip of the spear for representing TRUE values of a company. Strait up and compassionate business. New customer for life! Thank you guys.

Contacted on Mon due to and exhaust clamp failure, resulting in large enough leak that ECM was going to Derate Engine.Showed up when promised, obtained all parts required to complete job. (No multiple parts runs). Found a unknown issue w/DEF system BEFORE it became an issue.Repaired initial concern and discovered one quickly and professionally for a very fair and reasonable price, as well as extremely personable. Real decent guy.Definitely would recommend him.

Our bus just completely stop running for no apparent reason one day and i could not get it going for about a week, i even sought help from a local mechanic who tried and still couldn't get it going the mechanic was a highly recommended one in Oslo area. I was on my last leg with this thing, then I somehow came in contact with an angel from Brute force name Janelle after talking to her she sent out probably her best mechanic name AJ, i say best because its hard to believe there's one better than him. i tell this guy worked tirelessly to find the issue and after about an hour or 2 he had that baby back running again.. I'm sold on Brute Force....my new go to repair service. and oh i forgot to mention I didn't have to get towed they came to me. Big Thanks From Helping Hands Program of South County

A J, the technician had a terrific grasp of my technical problem and a workable solution (on the road) that was ingenious. I would not hesitate to call him again, and if you have issues with your diesel engine you will be in good hands.Service: ElectricalService: Electrical

From our initial call to Janelle until the time we received the receipt for service, everything was handled with the utmost professionalism. Friendly, courteous, and thorough in all interactions with the staff. We could tell that the mechanic truly loved his job, which included crawling under our RV in dirt and stone to repair a brake line...he also kept us informed of everything he was doing.I would highly recommend Brute Force.

Can t say enough about AJ and his wife at Brute Force Diesel Repair. Started to have engine problems in my RV soon as we hit Florida losing power couldn t maintain speed made it down to our RV park where I made some calls and AJ was highly recommended. He diagnosed the problem went and got the parts needed and repaired it. He s very knowledgeable and honest comes in and gets the job done. We were there for a few months and had him come back and do some more work for us, clean and neat you never know he was there.

We could not be happier with the service we received. We had RV trouble while traveling to our Florida vacation destination and stopped at a truck stop. Brute Force Diesel was recommended to us. AJ and his wife Janelle are the owners. AJ did excellent work. He did all the research to find the parts we needed, traveled to the destination to pick up the parts, and fixed our RV as quickly as possible to get us on our way. He was so good that we called him again a month later to do some additional work for us. Both he and his wife are good communicators which is rare these days. They called or texted with us every step of the way so we knew what was going on. We appreciate them so much and highly recommend Brute Force Diesel!

TA had 2 day wait and recommended BFD. My truck needed an alternator and BFD had the correct and cheaper alternator than the nearest dealership. A J. was quick and even cleaned my battery terminals . Before he left I did a pretrip and found out my trailer lights were not working so he found the problem too. Thanks Bro appreciate your Service. Sorry the Owner Operator took 45 min to pay you. I recommend BFD to everyone.

Quick! Easy! Reasonably Priced! I had to have a road call. A broken fan belt on my Mack was the issue of the day, so I insisted that the technician change that belt and change one other belt which was aging. The young lady on the phone was highly personable and made me feel more than just another client. The mechanic was extremely competent at his craft and showed detail oriented traits throughout the repair. The repair was quick (about 15 minutes). We cranked it up, checked gauges, and I was gone. Any time I have a truck issue near Vero Beach I'll be sure to call these guys first.

AJ at Brute Force Diesel Truck Repair and Road Service did an outstanding job of solving the problem of my diesel pusher motorhome not starting. It was in storage and had not been started in a while. He diagnosed the problem and explained it to me that a part had failed. He went to a local part supply store and returned in short order and replaced the part. The motorhome started up in short order. He then recommended another business where I could get full service on my Diesel engine. I would recommend AJ at Brute Force Diesel for your mechanical needs.Dave C

We are so happy to have found Brute Force in our google search. Janelle & AJ were both very professional and kept us up to date on all that was being done. They came out very promptly and their price was reasonable for the work that was done. We will definitely keep you guys on our call list! Thank you so much for the help we received today!Susan8/9/22 UPDATE: WOW! Above & Beyond is not enough to say about AJ & Janelle. Our truck is pretty old, 2003, and it has had many ongoing issues that no one else has been able to find what is wrong. (original place we were taking it wasn't even doing the work they "claimed" to be doing) So, that being said, AJ has had his work cut out for him. He did not give up though. He searched & searched until he finally found the leak that was shutting it down, stranding our driver several times. He worked evenings & over the weekend to get us up and running again. Thank you guys so very much! You are the best! Susan
