Quick answer
Salazar Roadside Assistance provides 24/7 mobile jump start service throughout DFW. We arrive with commercial jump packs, get your engine running, then test the battery and alternator before we leave. Typical arrival is about 30 minutes. Call (469) 606-2575.
Why cars die in DFW
Texas heat is harder on batteries than cold is. A hundred-degree summer cooks the electrolyte and shortens battery life to roughly three years in this climate, which is why the first cool morning of the year strands so many drivers.
The other half of our calls are simple: interior lights left on in an airport garage, a trunk left ajar overnight, or a short commute that never fully recharges the battery.
We do not just jump and leave
A jump that gets you moving but leaves you stranded again in an hour is not a fix. Every jump start includes a load test on the battery and a check of the alternator's charging output.
- Commercial jump packs, not consumer cables
- Reverse-polarity protected connections
- Battery load test after start
- Alternator charging-output check
- Terminal cleaning when corrosion is the culprit
- Same-visit battery replacement if needed

Straight answers
What we can and cannot fix on the roadside
Most companies leave this off their site. Knowing it before you call saves you a wasted trip and a wasted fee.
Done at your vehicle
- Starting a dead battery with a lithium jump pack, no second vehicle required
- Load-testing the battery and checking alternator output before we leave
- Cleaning corroded terminals and tightening loose clamps
- Jumping diesel pickups and dual-battery SUVs with the right pack
Not a roadside job
- Fix a failed alternator, starter or wiring fault on the roadside
- Jump a battery with a cracked case, leaking acid or a frozen cell — that gets replaced, not jumped
- Recharge a high-voltage hybrid or EV traction battery (we can jump the 12-volt system that runs their electronics)
Limits worth knowing before you call
- A jump gets you moving; it does not repair a battery at the end of its life. Our test tells you which one you have.
- If the vehicle dies again within minutes, the charging system is the fault and a jump will not hold.
- Batteries buried under seats, in wheel wells or in the trunk take longer — tell dispatch the make and model.
Minute by minute

Minute 0
Call with your location, vehicle and whether the dash lights come on at all.
Minute 1-2
Technician assigned; we confirm the flat rate for your vehicle type.
About 30 minutes

5-10 minutes on site
Engine running, battery and alternator tested, and you hear whether it will survive the week.
Staying safe while you wait
- Pull as far off the travel lane as the shoulder allows, hazards on, wheels turned away from traffic.
- At night, stay belted inside the vehicle with the doors locked — standing on a DFW shoulder is the real danger, not the breakdown.
- Give dispatch your direction of travel plus the nearest exit or mile marker; on a divided highway the wrong side costs 15 minutes.
- If you are in a live lane and cannot move, call 911 first — they can close the lane, and we cannot.
- Do not attempt a jump with damaged cables or a swollen battery; heat plus hydrogen gas is how batteries injure people.
Straight answer
Do you service my vehicle?
Yes for cars, SUVs, light trucks, EVs, commercial vans and diesel pickups. No for motorcycles and semis — we say so up front instead of sending a truck that cannot help.
Yes, we service these
- Electric vehicles. Teslas, hybrids and EVs — 12-volt battery service, tire work and lockouts, handled with the correct jack points and no tow needed for most calls.
- Commercial vans and fleet trucks. Cargo vans, box trucks and work fleets. Give dispatch the fleet or unit number and we bill the job the same flat way.
- Diesel and heavy-duty pickups. Commercial-grade jump packs and heavy-duty tire tooling ride on the truck, so a three-quarter-ton diesel is a first-trip job.
- Cars, SUVs and light trucks. The everyday roadside call — tires, batteries, jump starts, fuel and lockouts, at whatever lot or shoulder you are sitting in.
No, we do not take these
- Motorcycles. We do not take motorcycle roadside calls. Tell the dispatcher and we will point you to a motorcycle-equipped operator instead of sending a truck that cannot help.
- Semi tractors and heavy equipment. Class 8 trucks, trailers and construction equipment need heavy-duty recovery, which is a different trade and a different truck.

Answers
Jump Start Service questions, answered
Can you jump start a car with a completely dead battery?
In most cases yes. Our commercial jump packs deliver far more cranking amps than consumer cables, so batteries that will not respond to a neighbor's jumper cables often still start. A battery with an internal short or a frozen cell will not, and we will tell you that on site.
Do I need a new battery after a jump start?
Not always. If you left lights or a door ajar, the battery is probably fine once it recharges. If the battery is more than three years old or fails our load test, replacement is the honest answer — we carry batteries and can install one during the same visit.
Can you jump start a car with a bad alternator?
We can get it running, but it will die again once the pack is disconnected because the alternator is not recharging the system. We test the charging output before we leave so you know whether to drive straight to a shop or arrange a tow.
How much is a jump start service?
Jump starts are flat-rate at $60-$75 plus the $19 dispatch fee, quoted before we roll. The price is identical overnight, on weekends and on holidays — there is no after-hours premium.
Is a jump start safe for modern vehicles?
Yes, when it is done correctly. We use regulated jump packs with reverse-polarity protection and follow the manufacturer's designated jump points, which protects the sensitive electronics in newer vehicles.
Is there a jump start service near me right now?
Yes — jump starts are one of our fastest calls and technicians are staged across DFW and Austin around the clock. Most jump start customers are back on the road about 30 minutes after they hang up, and we test the charging system before we leave so you are not calling again from the next parking lot.
Do you charge more for a jump start at night?
No. A 2am jump start in a hotel lot is the same $60-$75 as a midday jump start at the office, with the same $19 dispatch fee. Salazar does not use surge pricing, holiday multipliers or emergency rates.
Can you jump start a truck, van or diesel?
Yes. Our commercial-grade packs handle passenger cars, SUVs, half-ton and heavy-duty trucks, cargo vans and most diesels. Tell dispatch what you are driving so the right pack comes out on the first trip.
