International Truck Repair Jerome, Idaho
International truck repair in Jerome, Idaho, from an independent shop that answers its own phone: (208) 696-9888. We work on International trucks with A26 power and the Cummins X15 options, at 2745 Tucker Ct Ste A — minutes off I-84 exit 168 — 7 AM to 10 PM daily.
What we service on International trucks
Whether your International runs the A26 or was spec'd with a Cummins X15, we handle the engine work: diagnostics for check engine lights and derates, aftertreatment and DPF service, regen problems, cooling and fuel systems, and electrical faults from sensors to wiring harnesses.
The chassis gets the same care — air system leaks, complete brake jobs, suspension, steering, driveline, batteries, starters, alternators, and lighting. LT highway tractors, HX vocational trucks, and the older ProStars still working the Magic Valley all roll through our bays.
Common failure points, kept honest
Emissions-era Internationals share the same industry-wide weak spot as everyone else: the aftertreatment system. Plugged DPFs, sensor faults, and derates lead the list, especially on trucks with lots of idle time. Cold Idaho winters pile on gelled fuel calls and battery failures, and heavy harvest loads wear brakes fast.
We diagnose before we quote and quote before we wrench. The price we quote is the price you pay — that's the house rule across The Automotive Shop family.
Shop bays and mobile coverage
Our Jerome shop is open 7 AM to 10 PM every day, and walk-ins are welcome when a bay is free. Can't make it in? Our mobile trucks cover every I-84 exit from Bliss to Declo, with a flat call-out fee stated before we roll.
Roadside calls we handle all the time: truck won't build air, dead batteries, starter failures, belt and coolant problems, and derate troubleshooting so you can decide whether to limp in or get towed.
DOT annual inspections
We do DOT annuals on International tractors and the trailers they pull — each unit needs its own inspection, and we do both in one visit. Inspections are performed by qualified inspectors per FMCSA 49 CFR 396.19, and we keep the reports for 14 months.
Driver questions
Are you an International dealer?
No. We're an independent repair shop in Jerome. We service International trucks, including A26 and Cummins X15 powered units, but we're not an authorized dealership.
My International threw a check engine light near Twin Falls. What now?
Call (208) 696-9888 from where you are. We'll talk through the symptoms, and either send a mobile tech to read codes roadside or get you into a Jerome bay — whichever gets you rolling with less downtime.
Do you work on older Internationals too?
Yes. Newer LT and HX trucks and older working trucks alike. If it hauls in the Magic Valley, we'll diagnose it, quote it, and fix it at the quoted price.
