Quick answer

Salazar Roadside Assistance provides 24/7 mobile roadside service across Denton, Texas. We come to you on the shoulder, in a parking garage or in your driveway, and most Denton calls are reached in about 30 minutes.

Denton runs on students and long drives. Two universities mean thousands of older cars with tired batteries, and I-35E and I-35W both split through town, so a breakdown here is usually on a highway with nowhere comfortable to stand.

What we actually see in Denton

Patterns from our own Denton calls — roughly 400 jobs a week across the Metroplex, and these are the ones that repeat here.

Highway calls concentrate on I-35E

Most of our Denton highway work lands on I-35E and I-35W. Tread punctures and blowouts dominate there, and the shoulder width decides whether we work the car where it sits or move it first.

Battery calls cluster in Downtown Square and UNT area

Residential and workplace parking in Downtown Square, UNT area, TWU area produces steady no-start calls, heaviest on the first cool morning after a Texas heat run. Every Denton jump start includes a battery and charging-system test before we leave.

Lockouts run all night near Denton Square

Keyless vehicles that lock themselves with the fob still inside are the most common Denton lockout, and the rate at 2 a.m. is the same as the rate at 2 p.m.

Where Denton breakdowns cluster

  • I-35E through Denton
  • I-35W through Denton
  • US-380 (University Drive) through Denton
  • Downtown Square parking and side streets
  • UNT area parking and side streets
  • TWU area parking and side streets
  • Denton Square lots
  • University of North Texas lots

Waiting safely in Denton

  • If the vehicle still moves, a lot off I-35E is a far safer place to wait than the shoulder.
  • Rayzor Ranch / Loop 288 runs longer than the rest of Denton — dispatch gives you a real window before you hang up.
  • Give dispatch the cross street, gate code or row number in Denton; it is the single biggest factor in how fast the technician reaches the car.

Straight answer

Do you service my vehicle?

Yes for cars, SUVs, light trucks, EVs, commercial vans and diesel pickups in Denton, TX. 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.

While you wait

What to do while you wait in Denton

Read this before you get out of the car. It is the same guidance our dispatchers give on the phone.

  1. 1Get off the travel lane if the vehicle still movesAim for the right shoulder, an exit ramp or the nearest lot. A car sitting in a live lane on I-35W or LBJ is the single most dangerous place to wait.
  2. 2Hazards on, wheels turned away from trafficTurn on your hazard lights before you do anything else, and point the front wheels away from the road so a struck vehicle does not roll into traffic.
  3. 3Get out on the passenger side and stand behind the barrierIf you leave the vehicle, exit away from traffic and wait behind the guardrail or well up the embankment — never between your car and oncoming traffic, and never in front of the vehicle.
  4. 4Stay buckled inside if there is no safe place to standOn a narrow shoulder or a bridge deck, staying belted inside with hazards on is safer than standing outside. Tell the dispatcher so the technician knows where you are.
  5. 5Make yourself visible at nightDome light on, phone flashlight facing traffic, reflective triangle or flare well behind the vehicle if you carry one. Most of our overnight calls happen in poor lighting.
  6. 6Call 911 first for injuries, fire, a blocked lane or a child or pet locked insideEmergency services outrank roadside service in those situations. Call 911, then call us for the vehicle itself.
