Motor City Trailer Repair — West Oakland Collision Services

Motor City Trailer Repair provides dependable collision trailer repair for trailer owners in Wixom. We frequently address bent or cracked frames, crushed beds, axle misalignment, coupler failures, and damaged wiring harnesses that follow roadside impacts. Michigan’s freeze-thaw cycles, corrosive road salt, and regular heavy towing can hide stress fractures and accelerate wear, so our inspections look for both visible and concealed damage. Whether trailers are used for landscaping, construction hauling, or weekend recreation, we aim to restore structural safety and reliable towing performance with transparent estimates and durable repairs.

Service overview

Our collision trailer repair service covers end-to-end structural restoration and systems checks. We start with a thorough inspection and digital measurements to assess frame alignment and identify weak points. Frame straightening and precision alignment are performed on dedicated fixtures, followed by plate welding, replacement section fabrication, or splice repairs as needed. Axle and suspension work includes axle replacement, re-centering, bearing service, leaf spring and torsion repairs, and complete hitch and tongue reconstruction. Brake systems are inspected and rebuilt where necessary, with hydraulic and electric brake units tested and wiring harnesses replaced or re-terminated. On-site metal fabrication allows us to add gussets, reinforcement plates, and custom brackets to restore original load capacity. Corrosion is treated, seams are sealed, and exposed steel is primed to slow future rust. Each repair concludes with load testing and a documented safety checklist so trailers leave our shop ready for demanding towing tasks.

Local relevance

Salt, potholes, and winter road grime increase the risk of hidden corrosion at welds and seams, turning small impacts into structural concerns if left unchecked.
