📞 Call (267) 249-5891Why a portable jump pack beats jumper cables
We do not string cables across a travel lane or ask a stranger to nose their car up to yours. Our technicians carry professional lithium jump packs with reverse-polarity and surge protection, which is why we can safely start modern vehicles with sensitive electronics — start/stop systems, hybrids, and turbo four-cylinders included.
Where we jump start cars in Philadelphia
- Center City, University City, and Fairmount street parking and garages
- South Philadelphia, the Sports Complex lots, and Navy Yard
- Northeast Philadelphia, Roxborough, Manayunk, and Germantown
- I-76, I-95, Roosevelt Boulevard, and Kelly / MLK Drive shoulders
- Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) terminals, garages, and airport hotels
When a jump start is not the real fix
If the battery died while you were driving, or the engine stalls again shortly after a successful jump, the alternator has likely failed. A jump start or even a brand-new battery may not keep the vehicle running. In that situation we recommend calling a tow company and having the vehicle taken to a mechanic — we will tell you honestly on scene rather than sell you a service that will not solve the problem.
What to have ready when you call
- Exact location — cross streets, garage level, or a dropped pin
- Year, make, and model of the vehicle
- Whether the dash lights come on at all, and whether it died while driving
- Payment method, collected at time of service
