    This was right after a 12 mile drive yet they said this was 6 gallons of gas and they charged $25.00's for this, smh!

    I took my car in over some weird mishap where I filled my tank seemingly yet no gas went in so my car would not run because to my surprise was still on empty when I thought it was full with a broken gas gauge. Anyway my point is I needed a thermostat so I got that done but did not realize their $105.00 diagnosis fee is added on top if the final cost I understood it as it had to at least be over that amount to work on of maybe I would owe it if it was less then that and for them to look it over. Anyway it cost me $340.00 to fix my thermostat which was done at the end of the second day my car was there. So I waited 2 days and like I have never experienced anywhere else I had to pay the extra $105.00 on top of the total cost. They also charged me $25.00's for gas yet the gauge was just above empty as soon as I got in it and I drove 12 miles and the empty light came on. My mini van in the City gets 16 miles to the gallon so less then a gallon and they told me they put 6 gallons in, like I told them that is a bold face lie! They also said you were out of gas we put some in and drove for 8 miles, why would you have to drive for 8 miles to check anything out?! Zero recommendations here plus they are very short with you when asking any questions.

    Front counter. They have a keurig and water cooler you can access

    If you are looking for an honest and experienced auto repair shop in Troy call Allied Transmission…read more This place will give you the best price, quality work, speedy repairs and service. The owner Rob is a really nice guy and will go out of his way to make sure you are happy with the service you receive from them. I have referred several people to Allied Transmission and i always hear back with satisfied results.

    So these guys are real class act. I got my transmission serviced here and my rear diff as well…read more They showed me how nasty my rear diff was. And they also told me my trans fluid was looking very nice but this was a used car so I wanted to start fresh and change all fluids. So waited 3 hours for my car to be done after I spoke with some one there earlier that day and was told it would take 30 minutes tops. Not only was I late for a very important meeting but also had to go grab cash to pay for my service. I was told one price when I walked in and got charged more after my car was done. I was just trying to get out of there fast. While watching my car have service done, it looked like they had 3 teenage kids working there. One was working on my rear diff. He attempted to drain the oil out smooth but got it all over the floor and all over himself. Witch was funny. Then he put the diff cover back on without a gasket.... :-/. I did not want to say anything till he was going to put the oil in. But since I was looking at him one of the other co workers came by and noticed right before I was going to say something. So that was scary. A few days later.. My car starts to jerk on the freeway and making grinding noise when moving from park to gear in the morning. I took it back and they said they forgot to mention that my oil pan had metal shavings in it.. I do not recall this what so ever. I only saw the rear diff being changed. So took it to the dealer and this shop put the wrong trans fluid and did not inform me of my trans needing repair.. Witch I would have of done at the time of my oil flush. Well now I have a broken trans and this shop to blame. DO NOT COME HERE. Shady shady people. Would not even help me out with taking care of this. They want to charge me the price of a new trans to rebuild me old trans.. Very very shady. Will never come here again and I will always talk down on this company. Oh yes, forgot to mention they also had 3 customers who had been waiting for their cars longer than I had to wait for my car while I was there. And when I came back for them to look at my car again, one of the same guys who was there the first time I was there was also complaining about some work they did that day.. At the dealer they pulled my tans out and said who ever worked on this tans must have been high on something. The filter was not on right and the oil pan was not even tight.. Wow what a piece of work.. Stay away from these thrives. Wish I could give them no stats or negative stars.

    Customer service is top tier! From the ease of making an appointment to the explanation of what…read morewould be done to the car, can't say enough about Car Fix Troy. EVERYONE we met with was exceptional friendly and did not rush through explaining the services needed. I might also add that the appointment was made two hours before their closing time and on a Saturday at that. In a day and time where customer service is not always at the forefront of concern for businesses, Car fix seems to still value it. Highly recommend. Mr.& Mrs. Jerry Williams

    Car Fix Troy - October 2025…read more VALUE - Highly Suspicious & Questionable. Hourly rate for service $200 per hour - You pay for overhead. I'm deeply disappointed with my recent experience at Car Fix Troy. I brought my vehicle in due to an ABS warning light. The salesman looked up the dealership model, found what the cost of a new replacement part was, to use that as the "Shock Price" in my case a new ABS Module was $1800. However, Car Fix of Troy offered a "deal" at over $300. That sounded promising--until another employee admitted the job should've taken no more than 1.5 hours and explained that I was being charged $200 per hour. I knew something did not seem fair. When I protested, explaining that is unusually high for labor - $200 per hour, the salesman promised me before I approved and left my care with them, he assured me they'd revisit the labor charges. He justified this with vague references to overhead and reprogramming costs, saying he had to purchase programming access from GMC. The job was supposed to take five hours (according to the salesperson) but stretched overnight due to "reprogramming issues". I wasn't contacted until well after the promised time. But, the next day, he was cold and dismissive and decided he would give me $50 off. I was actually charged $200/hour for labor totaling $400. He took $50 off the cost of the ABS Module. In my previous encounters, they had me run SNAP financing. From that time, it felt like my pricing was based more on my financial approval than the actual work. Every time I've brought a car for attention by Car Fix of Troy, I've had to return for additional repairs. I allowed them to do other work on this car that was over $4,000 initially. However, when their next quote was over $5,000, conveniently aligned with my approved financing and spotless payment history, I declined. These experiences have eroded all trust. I won't be returning.
