“I can not thank Wyatt and the team over here enough. I brought my truck limping in after being on the road for 5h from out of town. And on a Friday afternoon of all times.... and they worked to get me back on the road that same afternoon. Great people. Knowledgeable. Honest. And considerate.”

Do you offer a warranty on your transmission work?
Yes, we stand behind our work with comprehensive warranty coverage. The specific warranty terms depend on the type of repair performed. Ask us for details on your specific service.
What are common signs that my transmission needs repair?
Common signs include slipping gears, delayed engagement, rough or harsh shifting, transmission fluid leaks, burning smell, and the check engine light coming on. If you notice any of these, bring your vehicle in for a diagnostic.
Do you work on both automatic and manual transmissions?
Yes, our technicians are trained and experienced in both automatic and manual transmission repair. We service all makes and models.

What payment methods do you accept?
We accept cash, all major credit cards, and debit cards. We also work with some financing options for larger repairs. Ask us about payment plans.
