diesel truck mechanics in Chicago

Located in the heart of Chicago, IL, our founders, Manuel Corral and Romualdo Martinez, both started their careers as over-the-road drivers, deeply understanding the trials and tribulations of the trucking industry.

The idea for CFT Truck Repair came from our humble beginnings with simple truck washes and oil changes. Realizing our potential to provide more extensive services, we soon expanded our offerings. Despite his initial disinterest in trucks—a trait he ironically inherited from his diesel mechanic father—Manuel, alongside Romualdo, fully embraced the world of truck repair.

From obtaining our Commercial Driver's Licenses to growing up in the industry, we have been side by side since the 5th grade. This long-standing partnership reflects in the quality and reliability of our services. At CFT Truck Repair, we pride ourselves on the environment we've cultivated.

It took us time to build the right team, but today, we boast a crew of skilled technicians operating out of three well-equipped bays. Our workplace is characterized by great working conditions, ample vacation time, and sick days, ensuring everyone is always on their A-game.

What makes us unique is our approach to business. We stick to very competitive prices and never overcharge our customers, even when they are in a bind. We've kept our operations straightforward—much like a mom-and-pop shop; nothing fancy, just solid, reliable service. Romualdo brings his remarkable charisma to the front counter while I handle the strategic operations from the office.

Perhaps what touches us the most is hearing how crucial our service has been to our customers' success. Recently, a long-time client mentioned that without our help, his business would not have survived. Knowing that we are making a difference in other people's lives is the true driving force behind our operations.
