I don't have to tell you that a transmission repair is probably one of the most expensive auto repair we ever have to make. An auto expense that could potentially exceed $3,000 really demand that you do your homework to find the right transmission repair shop. For two weeks, I researched and interviewed over 10 transmission shops before I eventually selected A-1 Transmission. My criteria for selection included: Past customer reviews, length of warranty - time and miles, who performed the actual work - employee or business owner who guarantees the work, customer care skills and how did they make me feel when I met with them. A-1 Transmission owner "John" was able to satisfy all of these requirements for me. I took my truck to the shop and two days later the owner "John" called and asked me to come over.When I arrived my transmission was on a table and completely taken apart. John showed me exactly what my problem was and asked me to feel and rub parts to understand where certain areas had unusual or inappropriate wear. I thought I would wait a month before posting my review. A month has passed and I have driven to Austin, TX twice. My 04 F-150 truck has performed flawlessly. I'm now comfortable enough to report that I'm extremely happy with the repair. That said, I also have the confidence of a written warranty for 24,000 miles or 2 years. The experience from start to finish was very pleasant. I highly recommend A-1 transmission. And while I hope never to have to rebuild or repair another transmission, if I do, I will most assuredly return to A-1 Transmission. read more
