We were passing thru on our way home to Arizona and discovered we had a fuel leak in our truck. RPM took really good care of us and got us back on the road in a reasonable time frame and minimal cost. Nice, honest people, highly recommend.

I was transporting an oversize load for my business when I blew a hole in the radiator. RPM got me in immediately, removed the radiator, sent it out for repair, re-installed and had me back on the road the same day....at a reasonable cost. The best part... no more antifreeze leaks. Hard to find reputable, efficient truck repair on the road. Thank you RPM.

These guys are awesome. Its really hard to find a shop like this nowadays. Luckily my check engine light came on and I was less than a mile away. They know what theyre doing and it shows. Great prices and you get a free inspection just to let you know if anything else is going on. Ill most definitely be back.

Went in to this place for a front leaf spring replacement. Was told at first it would be 4 to 6 hours labor. Just had this same procedure done at another shop the total cost out the door at that shop was $1100. Same labor rate at this shop. So I was figuring around the same price. Boy was I wrong the price here was $2100 only difference is they replaced both front shocks in the process removing 3 more bolts. Wow wont ever go back here or recommend this place to anyone.

The mechanic was extremely knowledgeable and worked extremely hard for 4 hours straight. Wasnt constantly taking breaks at my expense. Had to get a little creative to remove and install the old and new part and stepped right up.Extremely good pricing. Old time service. It was an emergency repair on a holiday weekend and not one grumble or excuse and it was a pretty hard job. Definitely a great experience all things considered. Only got a 4 because of the parking lot but if it keeps prices down its not that bad.

Huge mistake in choosing this place to fix my truck. They do not communicate with you unless you contact them. I understand being busy, so dont tell me you will call me back, because you dont! Trying to get a straight answer is like waiting for snow in Phnx AZ.5 days later my injector is replaced. 1 day after that i have diesel in my oil again. Well, you can bring it back here...Never again will you people touch my truck.After i take it to another shop lets see how much money you give back for the labor i have to pay twice for now.I forgot to mention, im 1000 miles away from there, under another load and headed in the opposite direction, when they say you can bring it back here. No offer of helping me out in any other way.My advice, stay away from them, or find out the hard way.

This is a good shop. One of the few that work on Volvo D13s. They got me in and to my surprise, they had already picked up the parts for my truck and were waiting for me to pull in. All the dealers were giving me a 1 and 2 week wait times just to see me but RPM came through when it mattered.Now dont think this is some flimsy operation, you are not going to pay street mechanic rates.So give them a call, what do you have to lose but a week or two down time at a dealer? Ask for Steve or Dan.( injector and cups, trim codes programmed, overhead ran, filters changed- about 8 hours and out the door).

My truck was showing Derate in 3 hours. My company found RPM and they pulled me in with no questions asked. The manager was really nice and professional. And the mechanic was also. Got me in and out in a timely manner. I would definitely refer them to anyone. Thank you.

Been there twice, last time they did work after TA screwed up big with my air compressor and almost messed up my engine. RPM was a life saver, was excelent from a first phone call, service writer and tech. One of the most honorable company I have delt with in past 15 years. Number 1 choice in Midwest. We have it as priority shop within 400 miles. We will pay for towing, couple of thousands as long as it ends up in RPM shop, definitely worth the money and stress. Thanks for excelent, stress free work you have done on my truck and taking care of my driver.New add.They called me after a month and after 3 months, making sure truck is working and their work still stands. Amazing, they are simply amazing.

Well, to begin with, I was traveling through Effingham with a load and my engine through a valve. Needed a complete overhaul with new head, new Turbo, pistons, rings, ect... I have been driving for many years and I have never been treated like family from someone so far away and someone in this type of business. They were nothing but professional and I appreciate everything that they have done for me. They come highly highly recommended. Very very professional!!!!!!!!! Thanks again to everyone at RPM truck repair!

I hate to share bad experiences........butI went to RPM with a bad transmission.I knew for sure that it was bad.I had found a replacement transmission myself before going there.They took it upon themselves to inspect my truck. They charged me $226 to insist that my transmission wasnt bad.I made it to Dayton Ohio where the transmission came apart and left me on the side of the road.Wrecker bill, purchase transmission, find shop again and was charged $226 for nothing.Never ever go here for more than an oil change......maybe.

This was are second time back to the shop, we were very pleased the first time and again pleased the second time. I called them on Friday and ask if I could get in Saturday morning Shawn told me they were only opened mon- Fri . I explained the problem I was having and he told me he would meet me there at 7:00 am Sat. Morning They worked on my truck until it was finished. I have found a new shop that will treat me rite and not over charge like most shops. I would highly recommend this shop to anyone . they work on anything that runs on diesel and there mechanics are very good. Thanks again Shawn, Bob and the crew at RPM..

Highly reccomend RPM Effingham Ram with cummins having issues with fuel system that several dealer shops could not fix or evan diagnose RPM found the problem Saved me a boat load of money by checking in with dodge and finding it was under warranty helped to find a dealer that could get me in without waiting several more days Rpm could have fixed the problem but seeing it was under warrenty with dodge saved me thousands of dollars They went way above and beyond what you would expect from a shop If I ever need a shop in Illinois they will be my first call

I would highly recommend this shop. I was coming across 70 and my check engine light came on and my engine deregulated I called the shop and they said they could fit me in. So I went to the shop, at the time they were pretty busy but I went to the service desk and was greeted with respect and kindness he took down my info and I waited about 30 minutes and they had me in the shop 2 mechanics came and looked at my truck and started looking for the problem. They explained everything they were doing. they found the problem fixed it and I was out of there in about 5 hours I was very pleased with both there work and the bill. I figured the bill was gonna be much higher then it was. They were very far with me and I was pleased. If I ever need work again and Im near that area thats where I will go. Thanks for all the help guys.

Review №23

They scammed me.I came in about an AC issue, i told them it had just been recharged & checked for leaks & i asked them to just check the expansion valve.3 hours later, they told me the expansion valve was working properly & pressure was good, cycled good. But claim to have evacuated and recharged the freon anyway & then charged almost $600 for doing something i specifically said didnt need to be doneBesides who charges $600 to recharge an AC system???& still having the exact same issue, a complete waste of time and money.Go anywhere else

Review №25

Please, stay away from this business. They will rip you off! I had a break down and called RPM. They said that they would send a mechanic out to look at it. 3.5 hrs later he showed up. I asked the owner how much it would be before sending anyone out. He told me $1.75 a mile and $102 an hr for labor. After the mechanic showed up I looked at my watch so I would know exactly how long he was there for. It was a simple electrical short and he taped it up and exchanged the fuse. Took him 35 min. Then the owner called me with the bill and charged me $226 dollars because he told me that it had taken his mechanic 2.2 hrs! What a joke. I called him out on it and he told me that it took the tech 45 min to load up his stuff into the truck and drive the 14 miles to get to me. I didnt believe that for one minute so I asked the mechanic how long it had taken him and he told me 15 min. Then the owner started to threaten to send the police if I didnt pay the amount he said it was. This shop is dishonest! Look at their other reviews online. This owner has a history of ripping people off and being dishonest.

Whoever is driving the little gray Hyundai needs to learn how to drive around trucks, If hes going to make his living with trucks.When the right lane is ending and the truck turns on his turn signal to move left that is not your indication to speed up and smile.
