THEY STEAL FROM POOR COLLEGE STUDENTS BEWARE!!!!!! Too Those With little to no mechanic experience, they will try and scam you out of hundreds of dollars. a year or two back i had a crappy car and it had a horrible transmission, i knew this already and told them this. They still requested to take the car into the back just to check out the transmission, no actual labor was done, keep in mind only until it was over did they tell me it cost anything for them to look at it ,let alone hundreds of dollars, they ended up telling me what i already knew which was my tranny was failing and it would cost 2 thousand dollars, for them to tell me what i already knew it cost me 350 dollars for a less then 30 min of service. being a broke college student having to pay that ridiculous price just for them to tell me its another 3 k which someone could have told me for free. absolutely disgusting they knew i was young, struggling and needed the car for school do NOT give them any business they steal from poor college students. read more

The Owner here Bob is a great man who has over 30 years experience in the transmission business and works with his customers to get the job done right the very 1st time........... I highly recommend Aamco Total Car Care 112 Patchogue read more

AAMCO Transmissions- STAY AWAY. had transmission service done. my fault for not asking , assumed the price would be under $300 as I have it done every 2 years between dealer or mechanic, but they had the nerve to charge $650 for fluid and filter. I called the dealer to verify cost, read off the invoice and same service 299 plus tax, be warned, they are over price read more

I honestly believe Frank at AAMCO has the most comprehensive vehicle expertise in Suffolk County. When my car stalled during flooding in a storm, all the other shops I contacted advised that my engine was probably damaged or destroyed by hydrolock, which is when water enters the intake manifold. Frank told me right that he thought it was an electrical issue and that the car could be repaired. He also assured me that if the engine was the problem he would repair or look for a replacement engine. Three days later the car was fully repaired and multiple problems had been corrected. Before going to Frank, I read positive reviews and they are completely accurate. Whatever your vehicle needs, Frank will give you a knowledgeable and honest answer. read more

Brought my car in for normal transmission service. Told them i had a slight vibration. They said I needed brakes. After brake job still had vibration. The next day the calipers shifted off the rotors and destroyed my rim and side wall they either didn't put the bolt in or didn't tighten it. When i tried to jack the car I noticed they didn't replace my lug lock socket. Had the car towed back. They fixed the brakes. And after a week replaced my rim but refused to replace my damaged tire. When I got home the tire was leaking. Now my antilock brake light comes on. Horrible and dangerous experience. I don't want to bring it back to fix these issues. I would recommend not having any work Done here. read more

Gae me one price and promised repair to be done on 5 days. didnt have tools to do the job, but took my car drivetrain apart the first week so I couldn't take it elsewhere. Salesman and owner are liars. second week they said got parts mixed up and everything was reassembled wrong , third week they put used parts in my car without telling me and suspension parts i did not approve either. Then they charged me double the original price quoted. Got my car home and two days later my brakes wouldn't work and my car wouldn't start. No return calls and I was forced to bring my car to another mechanic. They are scammers and not experienced to fix drivetrains under AAmco. Fraud. read more

I finally say screw them and take it to another shop who then take it apart and tell me what's wrong apparently they just bandaid my existing case that was in my truck and took my money and lied never again will I trust this place read more

YOU'VE BEEN WARNED. Bob, the old owner of this shop, has retired. DO NOT. I repeat. DO NOT take your car here to the new owner Frank. He is a con artist and a scammer. I dropped my car off on Monday to be diagnosed for ABS, 4WD! and traction lights. I typically bring my car to Jeep but with a wait time of over a week I was calling around to see who could look at the car that day so I can get back to work. I dropped it off by 9 a.m., possibly sooner. By 4 p.m., an hour before the shop closes, no word, so I called. I was told it wasn't going to be able to be looked at. I was disappointed that no one contacted me but gave them the benefit of the doubt. When I was told it would be looked at first thing Tuesday I waited until 1 p.m. to check in, since no one was checking in with me. I was told it just went up on the lift and I'd get a call in an hour. 2 p.m., 3 p.m. roll by, and I call at 3:45 to be told they're still not done diagnosing. I voiced my disappointment, calmly, with the timeline to this point. I get a call 15 minutes before the shop closes that I need wheel hubs and bearings, and ABS sensors in the back. A $1,000 job. It was just the right side I needed, come to find out, but I wasn't even told that. Just told in the back. I understand it's good to do things in pairs, but to not even be told that was suspect in itself. I was already uneasy at this point, but already missed out on two days of work, going to be three now because it's the end of the work day, so I call the next morning to OK the work so I can get back on the road. But before I do, I ensure it can be done that day, because I couldn't afford to miss another day and what I thought would be a one-to-two-day job has now already been three. I was told the parts were in stock and it could be done Wednesday. Again, 4 p.m. rolls by with no word. No word they got the parts, that work has begun, so I call. I'm told my car is on the lift and they're wrapping up, that it would be done by 5 p.m. IF NOT the morning. I respond that the owner, Frank, who told me the diagnosis and who I called to OK the work said it would be done that day. So the person I spoke to at the shop said OK if you were told today then it'll be done today. 5 p.m. and no call. I give the benefit of the doubt that maybe they're staying an extra few minutes to wrap things up. Still, no one reaches out. The shop opens at 8 a.m. and by 9 a.m. Wednesday morning I still had not been contacted. Again, I call. Frank responds he was "just about to call me" and said my lights are still on after all the work was done. I'm upset, unsure of what to do as he tells me an electrical technician would need to come by to check out my ABS module. I tell him I'll call him back after voicing my frustrations again over missing now another day of work. He calls me back, almost right away, to tell me it's my battery that's the issue and I'm good to go. So, I got to the shop and three different times during talking and trying to ensure that this is, in fact, the problem and that I'll be good to do after, different prices for the work that's been done. He never gave me an actual price over the phone, saying all he had was an estimate. As I was talking with him, a couple comes in and says the same thing about their price! Was told $600 and get there and it's $750. He negotiated with them, but then said he wouldn't with me. Eventually, we settled on him replacing the battery for the lack of communication. I also needed an air filter and an oil change. I went and got a filter, replaced it, and, the next day, now Friday, today, dropped it off for the day for an oil change because I have a package there. Wouldn't you believe it, all three lights are still on. I contacted Frank with no response. This guys is a scammer. He ensured me that the battery was the issue. I paid him for the parts he told me needed to be replaced and that were supposedly the source of my problem, only to be out $1,000 and a week's worth of work and back at square one. Save yourself the time, money, stress, headaches and lies. Avoid like the plague. read more

This place is a money making place they keep your vehicle for days sometimes weeks and fix this that and the other thing and never fix the real problem oh and you better have cash they don't like credit cards but love suckers who believe what they time them so good luck read more

I've had a few bad experiences here. I wouldn't say it's a rip-off or scam, but I never get the car back in the same condition. Something always falls apart soon after. I'm suspicious to say the least. read more

Horrible customer service, rip people off with giving you one quoted price, and then when the work is done the price has change most of the time gone up. The mechanic work is horrible they have put two engines in my car both of which have fault, so long story short I urge you to take your business else where, it well save you time and money read more

Ok ... well i brought my truck to be fixed it needed a new muffler and tail pipe. My trunk doesn't lock properly once you've opened it ... and it was secured before i dropped it off. AND NO REASON TO OPEN THE BACK DOOR ... It was there for a new muffler .... They took my truck for a road test to test the muffler ... and because someone clearly opened the back everything we had some brand new items fell out on the road test and were destroyed. The owner refused to take responsibility and/ or deduct the items that were in boxes and now clearly broken. Being a woman for one i feel very taken advantage of and i will NEVER return to his place again. KARMA that's all i can say! When it happens to him i hope he will remember me and how unfair, bias and unprofessional he was. Never again. read more

Bob is great with the customer he's knowledgeable about cars and he's willing to work with you as soon as something goes wrong with my car I call him he fits me in tight away also if it'll be awhile he'll take you home and pick you back up also if it's a big job he'll help arrange for a rent a car read more

Theses are great,brought my car in and instead of selling me a new axle which they could of they said that it popped out.Only charged me 1 hrs labor with all the test drives and lift time checking it out read more

I have been a customer for over five years, and I have to say that I love the service. Anytime I have a problem with my car, I go to Bob (Aamco Patchogue) and he fixes me up either on the same day, or the next (outside of weekends). Quick, reliable and I never feel like I have been taken advantage off for not being knowledgeable about motors. All I can say is... I trust my family to their service and care. Allison C read more

I would give zero stars they fixed my transmission but wired my car wrong causing a hole to burn in my battery which could have cause my car to blow up. Owner will not take responsibility for this and all I'm asking for is the money I laid out to fix it. He called me a liar. Yeah I would put my kids lives in danger over $400. I will never go back to them and because I know I'm in the right I will keep fighting. read more

See all

Brought car in to have transfer case rebuilt and change oil pan gasket due to leak. Price was stated at 2600 , then on pick up was changed to 3400! Kept my car for three weeks. transfer case was not rebuilt and refurbished transfer case was installed. Owner Bob only wanted to give 90 day warrenty until i pointed out to him adamantly AAmaco allows 1 year warrenty on any assembly done! 3 months later tranfer case failed. Another transfer case had to be reinstalled. They kept car another 3 weeks and i had to struggle to get to work again. Brought back car again in 5th month due to vibration problems and bob the owner refused to honor warrenty and text me he would not work on car. Nina his office manager says my car records were all of a sudden no longer in system and she couldn't verify my warrenty, which was a lie. I contacted AAMCO Headquarters and they had to enforce him to honor warrenty to make adjustments and he kept my car anothet 3 Weeks...and then gave me receipt saying he couldnt find anything wrong! My car is now leaking oil again from the pan gasket! This AAMCO is incompetent and their mechanics are not AAMCO certified to fo any mechsmic work. AAMCO is now monitoring their workmanship due to numerous complaints at this location. read more

I took my 1999 Saturn here because its transmission -- rebuilt by another shop six months earlier -- was in bad shape. John and the crew diagnosed the problem and had it repaired in a few days. The car is running perfectly. I will be back for whatever I need from now on. Highly recommended! read more

I brought my truck to Bob. The service writer told me that it might be an adjustment or something simple. They called me within three hours- they needed my approval to drop the transmission. I have had my transmission completely rebuilt by Bob and his service writer. I was told that the transmission was just like new- This was the sales pitch. I was charged $3,450.00 dollars and given a one year warrantee. The main transmission rebuilder, at this location , had a death in the family so my truck was there for weeks. I asked why such a low warrantee if the transmission is just like new. I was told that corporate does not allow a longer warrantee because it is a four wheel drive and that this transmission will outlast my truck. One year and three months later, the transmission was doing the same thing- internal failure. I was told I am out of warrantee and would have to pay again. Bob is always a nice person and very well mannered- this means absolutely NOTHING- they cannot help you!! Of course they will take you home- in another customer's car, after you authorize the work. They took me home also. DO YOUR HOMEWORK- find out the warrantees and know that the main mission at AAMCO is to remove your transmission so that you have to have it rebuilt by them. I actually purchased a dealer transmission from DODGE and had them install for a lot less with a three year 75 thousand mile warrantee. That's correct 3yr/75,000miles warrantee. Google AAMCO complaints. It is rampant. read more
