¡Evítalos como el corona-virus 19 y busca otro servicio por carretera! AVOID them like the corona-virus 19 & look for another road service!!
Owner, Kerry L. Block, scams out-of-service truck drivers at the Wisconsin I-90N weigh scale between Beloit & Janesville, WI.
For Spanish speaking drivers: Evítalos y busca a alguien más. Son una bola de rateros, están ahí para robar, y picarte los ojos. Estan ahi para chingarte. El dueño es hijo del diablo.
Block Diesel Repair's owner Kerry and his mobile truck & trailer repair crew are like vultures waiting for scraps as soon as the state officials place a commercial truck or trailer OOS/out-of-service. They prey upon helpless or desperate truck drivers needing repair assistance to get the OOS fault(s) fixed, so they can get back on the road and make the pick or delivery on time.
Kerry specializes in scamming unsuspecting and trusting international foreign drivers who speak &/or read little to no English. He has them sign a document or open work order to begin repairs. No carbon copy of this doc is left with the driver, nor included with the receipt upon the final payment. We suspect it doesn't explain what work will be done, what is the hourly rate & what is the estimated cost of repair, and the total time to make the repair.
Even though Kerry was fully aware & had stated the driver knew no or very little English, he did not bother to translate into writing, in the driver's foreign language, what the driver was signing. An honest person would have sought to speak to the truck driver's truck company rep or owner before proceeding.

What should have been an overall repair bill of about $500 turned out to be just under $2300.00. They also billed 8.5 hours to weld when it only took less than 2 hours. An unrelated welder had quoted me $200 but was unavailable to do the work until the next day.
