Common Ways Drivers Get Stranded Around University Avenue And University Heights

Dead Battery On A Bronx Community College Block

Bronx Community College brings students, faculty and staff who leave cars parked all day on the blocks around University Avenue and the campus. A car that sits through a long day in the cold can be dead by the time class lets out. We come to where it's parked, jump it on the spot, and tell you honestly whether it'll hold.

Keys Locked In The Car Near The Hall Of Fame For Great Americans

A visit to the Bronx Community College campus and the Hall of Fame for Great Americans makes it easy to shut the door with the keys still on the seat. We come with damage-free tools and pop it open at the curb — no broken window, no scratched paint.

Flat Tire On Fordham Road Or Jerome Avenue

West Fordham Road and Jerome Avenue carry heavy traffic along the neighborhood's edges, with Jerome Avenue running under the elevated train. A curb or a pothole there can open a tire in seconds. We come to you, work the car safely out of the lane, and mount your spare so you're not crouched beside a wheel in traffic.

Dead Battery On A Steep University Avenue Block

University Heights climbs in grades, and the apartment houses along University Avenue keep cars parked on the hills between drives. A battery that never gets a real run goes flat fast in the cold. We come to wherever it's parked on the slope, jump it, and replace the battery on the spot if it's done.

Keys Locked In The Car On A Crowded Apartment Block

The five- and six-story buildings off University Avenue and West Burnside Avenue pack a lot of cars onto these blocks, and a quick stop makes it easy to shut the door with the keys inside. We use damage-free tools to get you back in without damage to the car.

Delivery Or Campus Service Van Down On A Side Street

Bronx Community College and the surrounding apartment houses keep delivery vans, campus fleet vehicles, building-service trucks and contractor rigs working these blocks all day. When one won't start or gets locked off University or Jerome Avenue, we carry tools for heavier commercial doors and 24-volt equipment a standard car pack can't turn over.

Truck Roadside Service

Truck, Van & Commercial Roadside Help Along University Avenue And Across University Heights

University Heights is a dense, residential neighborhood anchored by a college campus, and between Bronx Community College and the apartment houses it keeps a steady flow of delivery vans, campus fleet vehicles, building-service trucks and contractor rigs working these hilly blocks every day. When one of them goes down, a route or a building job stalls with it. We carry the right tools for heavier truck and van doors and 24-volt equipment for commercial battery jump starts.

Whether you're locked out of a van near Bronx Community College or your truck won't start on University Avenue, one local call gets a tech who knows commercial vehicles to you — 24/7, with the price quoted upfront.
