Aamco Transmissions

I just bought an ’85 CJ7. I was out and about one day when the stick shift went completely wobbly on me and I was unable to change out of reverse. I thought it was the clutch and called Christian to ask if I could have it towed in. He said yes and I had it towed in within the hour. Less than a half hour after he got the car on his lot, he had called me back and told me that it was a relatively simple fix and that he would fix it free a of charge! They could have easily got some money out of me, but they took the high road and just won a customer for life. Thank you!

All the people at Amco have been beyond helpful beyond full I explain everything in great detail gave me so many options and I have absolutely loved my experience with them

Terrible terrible customer service do not take any vehicles here! Total waste of time!!!

My heater stopped working on my 2003 Chevy S10. Dropped off my truck around 8am and by 10:00am Christian had found the problem and a quoted price. The thermostat was stuck open but also they found a Crack in the water pump but them came the bad news, the heater still did not work. Christian recommended that I get a cooling system flush, and that did the trick. Christian saved me $ 1,000 repair bill by not having to do a heater core replacement.
Thank You Christian and staff.

Wonderful service and they had my car finished on time and under the quoted price. Who does that? This Aamco sure does! Really made my day to know there is a great local transmission shop that delivers what they promise to their customers.

The service technicians/​staff (Christian, Jim, Jesse & Will) at AAMCO are the most amazing, experienced, caring, and understanding mechanics EVER!!! They give exceptional and outstanding customer service, are extremely efficient, friendly and informative.
My car was a complete nightmare in need of repairs– these guys were not phased at all. They are flexible and worked within my budget. I am truly grateful for all their service and support. I highly recommend them and give them 10 stars!

I was referred to AAMCO by Big O Tires since after doing an oil change and some other work for me as they saw what appeared to be a transmission oil leak. I was totally freaking out since I know from past experience that could be thousands of dollars, however, Christian quickly put my at ease and assured me they’d find out exactly what the issue was. After only a brief wait, he reported that my transmission was fine and that apparently someone didn’t tighten T-​case plug from a prior service (that’s another issue altogether and not with AAMCO). In addition they ran a check since my engine light was on and provided me the service codes as well as tightening the nut that was loose. I was so relieved as I was preparing for bad news as my SUV is older and getting up in miles. I highly recommend this mechanic shop for all your auto car needs as they do way more than transmissions and are very honest and reliable.

Contrary to the cheeky commercials I will not go to this location again. My daughter was told she needed a whole new transmission for thousands of dollars. So, we went for a second opinion. Roman’s Transmission on Dutton Ave. (Excellent Service) told us the transmission is fine, and all she needed was new transmission mounts. It cost us less than a thousand and the car runs fine. By the way, AAMCO discovered she was missing her transmission dipstick. They ordered a new one and said they would call the next day. Over a week later, they haven’t called.

I took my van to them thinking it was a transmission issue. They looked over my van and told me I had a bad alternator. My vans issues are over.

We had a truck that felt like the engine was slipping. We anticipated the worst and went to another local transmission shop that was suggested by a friend. They kept our truck all day to tell us that it needed new transmission– end of story. They quoted us over 3,000.00 to solve our problem. We are a hard working family of five and because money was tight, we went to Aamco for a second opinion. They ran diagnostics on it only to inform us that it was merely a sensor that was under 40.00, which they’d fixed. Needless to say we were ecstatic. You can’t always get good news when it comes to car repairs, but the integrity of this particular business left our faith renewed in people who do the right thing– even if the wrong thing could make them a whole lot more money. Thank you Aamco. Meant to leave this review a long time ago.

I have an 2003 Ford Focus coming up on the 150k mark, that I love and that I have taken good care of. Recently I’ve thrown a check engine light, which they checked for free. I was running very lean, needed a new hose and a tune up. Fast and friendly, good price. Last night my car decided to overheat and very dramatically send off a ton of steam and radiator fluid. Looked like I was burning up. Aamco tried hard all day to find something but only saw a loose wire that probably stopped the radiator fan from running. They fixed it for free. I am definitely working with these guys to make the 200k mark on my vehicle. Hat Tip!

The owners are absolutely fantastic! If you want honest, trustworthy people working on your car, visit this shop.

My car needed transmission service, so I took it to Aamco. Turns out, I needed a total rebuild, but my car was ready in two days, and the final tally was far below estimates I received from other transmission shops. Since then, Aamco has become my go-​to auto repair shop. Besides the skilled and meticulous work, their prices are always lower than the other repair shops in the area. Saving money, of course, is a good thing, but the icing on the cake is their first-​class customer service. Christian is beyond professional — always going the extra mile rendering service beyond what I am paying for. He even helped me get a fantastic deal on a car rental while mine was in the shop. Simply invaluable. The bottom line? When you need your car repaired, this is where you go. I can’t imagine going anywhere else.

Great service and super friendly. There were several maintenance items that needs to get get done — and they were completed on time and within the budget they had quoted. Very honest and knew what they were talking about. I will definitely be returning and highly recommend.

Been coming here for years. They just rebuilt my transmission on my 2010 Ford Escape $ 1500 less the dealer with the same warranty! Place is great! I understood the whole process and it was ready a day earlier than I expected.
Thanks again for a job well done!

This place is awful. Quoted me a price and a time. Went over on both and had to rent a car because they couldn’t finish the job… and they never did. Couldn’t figure out where the speed sensor was. How can an auto body shop not know or not care to research where something is. This place. Needless to say it never got replaced so I ended up paying for the other stuff I needed done (brake boost system) but never got the problem that I took it in for taken care of. So now I have to go somewhere else to and pay more money to get it done properly. Do not go here unless you’re lonely and haven’t gotten screwed in a while

I went through Oilstop for a basic oil change and the other usual little checks. They told me my transmission was leaking and they couldn’t fix it. I called Valley Tire & Brake, my usual car shop, and they said they don’t do the complicated transmission fixes, so depending on where the leak was, they might not be able to fix it. I didn’t want to take it there and have to go elsewhere, so I called AAMCO. I set up an appointment to drop off my truck. I asked them if they had courtesy cars. The guy’s response was that they don’t have them to save me a couple hundred dollars. I thought, WTF are you talking about? I am trying to ensure I have transportation and he’s talking about money. He then went on to explain that a rental car is cheap and claimed shops that have rental cars jack up the prices to cover their use. It wasn’t the best way to respond to my inquiry. I took my car in the next morning. I was bummed because I thought I could be without my car for days, which would have been a big pain. I took the bus to work and was surprised to get a call just a couple hours later. He told me the leak was a pretty quick fix and they had all of the supplies on hand to take care of it. I told them to move forward and they finished up pretty quickly. The bill was $ 145, which is cheap for a auto repair bill. I got a ride to the shop, paid, and was off.

I had a great experience at first. I needed my transmission rebuilt on my car and they did just that. However, when my dad went to change the oil one month after the work was done he noticed numerous nuts, bolts and a few hoses were missing. We then took the car back to AAMCO, they stated because we did not notice the missing parts the same day, we could not prove the parts went missing because of them. Also, they stated those particular parts are «unnecessary». There wasn’t a thing they could do about it. Uhm hello everything in the engine is necessary! I then took my car over to Volvo to get a complete list of every part that was missing, over $ 400 in parts! I was stuck with the tab. Thanks AAMCO! I will not be returning because of this and their rude customer service.

Was beyond disappointed. I never like to give a business s bad review but I was actually lied to about the condition of my car or they really didn’t even look at it? They wanted to do a full rebuild on my transmission for $ 1,700.00. Thank goodness I got a second opinion. My transmission needed to be serviced and was low on transmission fluid, $ 300.00 fix.

Good service and pricing.
Called about a clutch that needed replacing. Christian answered and told me he’d get me a quote and call right back (he had a couple of phone calls going). Less than 3 minutes later, I get a call back and the best quote I could find for the job. He also explained potential costs that could vary depending on what damage was inside.
Dropped the car off that night after hours. Got a call by 9:00 AM telling me more specifically what’s going on and the costs (which were just as he guessed the night before). He told me the repair would be done early in the afternoon. I went by on my lunch break and the car was already out and waiting to have the repairs signed off. I paid, and my wife went to pick up the car later.
There was no hard sell, and nothing promised that wasn’t delivered. What Christian said was going to be done was done, and the vehicle was delivered on budget and on time. That’s EXACTLY what should be expected from an auto repair facility, and they did it perfectly.

Pros:
I didn’t have a bad experience with this place. They called before doing any work on my car, and they were quite friendly. My check engine light is finally off! Will seems like a people-​person and seemed to actually care about fixing my car right.
Cons:
I highly doubt it really took them 3 hours to figure out what was going on with my car as they estimated. It was a really quick and simple fix. As every other car place around, they just want money.
I also called back to get an oil change for my car and they said it’d be $ 99. No thank you!

This shop is pure professional. They go above and beyond the call of duty. I asked endless questions which I received nothing but educated answers. Christian is the manager that I dealt with. Chris was the technician that serviced my transmission. This team is a great place to bring your car to for any and all services. I even had the opportunity to see Christian deal with an unruly erratic customer who he deal with in a great professional manner.

I’ve had my car serviced here on a few occasions and was impressed with the timely, friendly, and competent service. My car issues were addressed and fixed to satisfaction.
There is no fancy waiting room and no donuts but I don’t go there because of the entertainment. I go there for reliable and fairly priced service. It’s a no frills kind of place, and I kind of like it. I don’t want to pay for a swanky waiting room or get all buttered up. I just want my car fixed.
Car repair is expensive and no one likes to having to deal with it in the first place, I totally get it. It’s akin to going to the dentist. But if you have to have it done, might as well get it done right.
