I can't recommend Pro Transmissions & Automotive of Athens enough. My sister's Chrysler Town &…read moreCountry was originally taken to Global Tire in Dacula, where she was told (after serious lack of communication) the engine was completely dead and would cost around $10,000 to replace--more than the van was worth. I told her to take it to my buddy Danny at Pro Transmissions & Automotive who I've known for half of my life for a second opinion. Danny did what Danny does: he properly diagnosed the problem and determined that the van did not need an entirely new engine. His team replaced the necessary gaskets, completed the head-gasket and timing job, and got my sister back on the road for about half of what the other shop had quoted. Honest diagnosis, quality work, and a huge amount of money saved. If you're facing an expensive repair, take your vehicle to Danny before giving up on it. I cannot recommend this shop enough, a second opinion from the right shop can make all the difference! Thank you for being you Danny and always treating your customers like family and taking the time to do things right!

The details such as, "we've got everything from here" "we have coffee ready for you, feel free to have some" "please let us know how we do, and how our service is" That is what makes a business so far exceed its competitors.

From the moment I walked in, the team was professional, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. They took the time to clearly explain what was going on with my vehicle, gave me an honest estimate upfront, and didn't try to upsell anything I didn't need--which is rare these days. What really impressed me was their efficiency and attention to detail. The work was completed quickly, and everything was done right the first time. It's obvious they take pride in what they do and genuinely care about their customers. Finding a trustworthy mechanic isn't easy, but these guys have earned my business for the long haul. If you're looking for honest, reliable, and top-quality auto service, I highly recommend them. -- Bob Hendrix

If my car broke down in front of Japanese Motor Works I would push it to the nearest Honda…read moredealership to be repaired. Japanese Motor Works are incompetent and dishonest. They will tell you they have identified the problem with your car and how to solve it, yet after they have implemented their solution they will inform you it did not solve the problem but they will still charge you for it. You still need your car repaired so now you are trapped, next they will pacify you by assuring you this time they have definitely identified the problem and how to solve it, so you give them the go ahead and cross your fingers. A few days later you will receive another call informing you their new solution did not solve the problem either but they will still charge you for that too. They will drag this process out for weeks and squeeze you for 5 to 10 times the amount of their original quote. I am not the only person to have this experience with Japanese Motor Works, they are notorious for it, ask around and see for yourself. You would think they would notice the lack of repeat customers and see it as a sign they might not be doing good business. Charging people for something that does not work should be illegal. What a pathetic way to make a living.
