A Plus Transmission

Being a girl who doesn’t know too much about cars I’m always very skeptical when coming to mechanic shops, but wow the owner of this shop was not only super friendly but he showed me exactly what was wrong with my car and what needed to be fixed. There was no pressure at all! He is a very honest guy and I felt happy to know my car was in good hands. His prices are fair and he did an amazing job. My car is running as smooth as a whistle: D highly recommend

Very honest, Quality work, great prices. My 2001 F150 had some serious transmission damage and literally coasted into this shop. My local shop quoted mw $ 3,800 for a new transmission A Plus did the repairs for $ 1,800. A few weeks after the repair the transmission started to shift rough. They took in the truck and were honest that a part they had replaced to try to improve the transmission performance was not working as specified so the owner bought the correct part and ate the entire $ 300 cost, charged me no labor and only charged me for fluid and filter. ($ 80). Very few shops actually know how to repair transmissions as it is more profitable to just throw in new or rebuilt ones. Hai is unusual in that he REALLY knows transmissions and goes out of his way to do great work and save the customer money. The truck shifts better than new!

A+ Transmission is a gem.
Hai, the owner, is excellent at explaining what is needed and he came in at the quoted price.
My Tacoma shifts and starts like a new truck. Thanks Hai!

My 98 Tacoma automatic finally gave up reverse gear and the forward gears were starting to slip so I needed to bring it into a shop to get work done. A friend recommended this place and I’m glad I took it here. The price was more than reasonable and the service was top notch! Hai got my truck fixed in 3 days and the transmission shifts great! My Tacoma has 230k miles and I’m hoping to get into the 300k range thanks to Hai and A Plus Transmission!

Hi, my name is Larry,
I am giving A plus transmissions 5 stars because of the solid transmission they repaired for me at a VERY reasonable cost! I would like to add the repair shop prior left me stranded 5 times !!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SHOP!!! AS THE OWNER TAKES MUCH PRIDE IN HIS WORK! I haven’t had not one thing go wrong since I took my truck there! Almost 2 years now!

Hai and Danny took very good care of me and were able to rebuild my transmission after I had 3 shops tell me I had to get a new one. Not only did they save my transmission but they did it in one day and the difference I saved was $ 3000.00 otherwise I would have had to sell my car for scraps ! Thanks guys!

Wish i could of got service, no one to get ahold of. Office was bare, no one in the garage. Free tools and electronics any one?
I was waiting for at least.10 waiting to see some kind of life. Saw this little asian girl shoot past me and not even look at me.
Maybe a bad day? Either way i won’t be back in town to give it another shot so my rating stays.

I’m glad I went to this repair shop. The owner, Kai, is extremely helpful. He is sometimes hard to understand, but he is genuinely interested in helping his customers. He spent a lot of time with me to help assess my car’s transmission problem. He showed me exactly where the problem was, which I was glad because I need to see things for myself! He went out of his way to explain every detail of what needed to be done and why. His pricing was much better than the other place I spoke with. Very fair and honest!

One of the many trips I made to San Diego, my car started acting funny and heating up on the way, so I pulled over to give it a breather. Hoping that everything would be okay ten minutes later, I tried starting my car again and it wouldn’t. Fortunately, I had AAA and they towed me to the nearest auto shop in Escondido. The took me to a Honda dealer, where I was told my transmission was out of commission. They gave me an estimate worth half the price of my car, wanting to charge up my ass. No, thank you! So I tried Unilocaling and Googling around for deals to no luck. Just when I was giving up hope, one of the Honda workers approached me and stealthily recommended a reliable and affordable auto shop just two miles down the street, which was A Plus Transmission. I called and spoke to a nice Asian man name Hai. He told me he could cut me a really good deal since I was a student, and he felt bad that I was stranded. The price was just a pinky compared to the arm and leg Honda wanted to charge me. I got AAA to tow my car to Mr. Hai’s shop. Upon arrival, Mr. Hai immediately got cracking on my car and calling around to ordering parts. Fortunately, Mr. Hai was able was able to finish working on my car by the end of the business day. Thank goodness the nightmare was over and thank you Mr. Hai!

THANK GOD I CAME HERE! My car was driving pretty bad for a few days and I went to a few shops to get it checked out. I think because I was a girl, alot of them tried to rip me off because I would call my bf and he would tell me that their bill was tooooo expensive. So I found A Plus Transmission through one of my customers at work and they highly recommended Hai. They said he is very reasonable with the prices and he does an excellent job so i thought «why not». Took my car there the next day & he was surprisingly very nice unlike some of the jerks i met at the other shops. He took my car for me and returned it within the next day for an awesome price! I would have given him 7 stars for not trying to rip me off! Awesome, fast, friendly place that I will be coming back to again! Now my car is running smoother then ever. Thanks A Plus Transmission! You guys are theeeee best!

I’ve needed a new clutch on my 1993 Toyota MR2 for a while, and finally had the work done at A Plus Transmission. Hai and the guys were able to complete it within a day and a half (a very complicated job due to the mid-​engine design). I also had a fairly major oil leak, which they diagnosed and fixed at a very reasonable price.
Overall, I’m very happy with their work and pricing, and would recommend them for any transmission issues.

I was visiting some friends in San Diego when my ’05 Accord broke down. I checked out the local Penny Saver and happened upon this shop. They offered free towing and diagnostic so I thought I would give this shop a shot. I called up Hai and he and had a truck out to me in about 30 minutes. He told me the job normally takes 2 days, but I told him I needed my car back sooner since I needed to get back to work the next day. Luckily he had a replacement unit in stock, so he was able to get the car back to me the next day!
