US 30 Performance Transmissions

I failed emissions and called a few places before I spoke with US 30 and thank goodness I did… I was told by other companies that my failed codes required a rebuilt NOPE! It was a sensor in the transmission. I passed emissions yesterday and saved a lot $$$$! Thanks for being honest guys!!!

My transmission had been increasingly touchy for several months, and finally when it refused to shift into second gear I searched for help. Route 30 had been recommended to me by a previous customer, whose transmission is still holding 100,000 miles after it has been rebuilt by this place.
I pulled into the place, on the corner of Route 30 and 14^th Street, with hesitation. The neighborhood is rough and the building was dilapidated. Even the sign itself was not really noticable or inviting in the least. «Was it fstill open?» I wondered. I walked inside and was a bit afraid as 4 – 5 guys were sitting around playing cards and eating. Is this a front for something? Then a guy jumped up, and with a whiskey voice asked if he could help me. Crap — am I safe???
All the worry for for NOTHING: turns out the crew was on lunch and just enjoying each other’s company. What at first glance had give me pause was all an illusion. I soon realized how wrong I was, judging just by appearances. What this place lacks in atmosphere it more than makes up in heart, soul, cheap prices, honesty, integrity and quality of work.
My car is old, but it needs to last until I can get back on my feet again after too-​long a period of underemployment. Todd, the owner, works hard with his son and his girl pitching in to make this a full-​service family affair. I came in for a transmission, but the son noticed my badly cracked windshield and broken side mirrors. He told me they could get the parts and repair these safety issues for cheap. Really cheap.
Since the focus of the business is on transmission, let’s get to that: Todd quoted me a very fair price for the work: for parts (INCLUDING the windshield) and labor it was under $ 2,000. Although I did not get another quote for comparison, I am sure if I took the car to a dealership the work would have cost double.
The transmission also has a 12,000 mile or 12 month warranty. Turns out on my long drive to Chicago, the transmission started to sputter. It was the first time I had gone over 60 mph and I was frightened. I took it back to Todd immediately, he took it for a drive, and agreed to fix it with no questions and no attitude. It did take longer than I had hoped, as the man who originally rebuilt it had a major stroke. But it was well worth the wait to get it done.
I was impressed that Todd took total responsibility for the issue: he kept repeating that it was «entirely his fault» (I knew it wasn’t) and apologized profusely repeatedly. That tells me volumes about his integrity. How often do you feel you can trust a mechanic — especially if you are a woman? I’ve been talked down to and also had one guy try to sell me on an add-​ons that were not needed. Not here, not at US Route 30.
Todd and his group does transmissions and much much more. They are open for your business — no hesitations here!
