Update of review 11/17 Had a problem with my transmission again. It was not related to the repairs they had done. They happily checked it out right away and Bob had it fixed and I was on my way again. Thank You for the quick repair even though I had no appointment. Here again they took great care of my truck and me! read more

Once again, excellent service and repair. A very capable shop. All work done at fair prices.

Doug's is a full service shop, not just transmissions. Darren is really on top of checking things out and researched my daughter's Kia. It had blown engine but he followed a recall on it, talked to several dealerships and one who worked with him. She was able to get a whole new engine installed free. Darren also saved her on the diagnostic test at the dealership and only charged her an hour labor. I cannot say enough positive about this shop but ask for Darren, He's the man! read more

A honest and professional shop. I brought my truck into Doug's shop because I believed I was having an issue with my transmission. They test drove my truck and checked the fluid. They informed me that my transmission didn't have any problems and even offered advice on what my problem could be. Great group of guys. In the future if I have any issues I'll will be definitely returning. read more

Good honest folks. Had my truck back the next day. I'm very satisfied with their work. I would recommend!

Stay away. This is a dishonest shop. New clutches don't go out after less than 10k miles. Old ones do, when the old clutch is left in place. I referred my Mom to this place. She was supposed to have her timing belt changed in a Honda accord. The dealership later showed her it was impossible to have been changed, as the OEM belt was still on and incredibly brittle. When they do use parts, they are the cheapest available. A new heater core shouldn't go bad in less than a year requiring a replacement. All of these jobs were billed well over $1000. I know we aren't the only people to have this happen to. Stay away if you want to keep your cars running and money in your pocket. read more

Darren and his crew are amazing. I'm so happy I found this shop. I've taken my vehicle for tune up, oil chack water pump and 100k maintain. My vehicle and future vehicle will be servised by this shop. Good price and great quality work. read more

I stopped today for some insight on a problem, and The gentleman that helped me was very nice and put me at ease. This is a real business that prides itself on courtesy, and Darren is a true professional. read more

My wife's Yukon transmission went out. Every other shop had a wait tome to even look at it. Doug's was able to to take it in the next day and they replaced the transmission within a few days. They gave us two year 100k warranty and so far 40k miles added it's been running great. This was super convenient for us as it is my kids transportation to therapy and appointments. I highly recommend them. read more

We have brought both of our vehicles here for several years ( Lexus and RAM 3500 dually) Sarin has always made sure everything is done and done correctly. Labor rates are very good and service is prompt and dependable. read more

My beloved desert vehicle failed the State's vehicle admissions test and the state gives you this form and you are encouraged to take it to your mechanic for repairs. The state's computer reading of my vehicle showed that I had a missing cylinder that was not firing. Upon Doug's Transmission's assessment, they found that the issue was in completely a different cylinder and that my last mechanic failed to change the plugs and/or replaced them with the wrong plugs causing the coil packs to short out giving computer errors in the vehicle. The issue was resolved and we passed the smog admissions test with flying colors. My vehicle was repaired in several hours. Their services are great with me and they deliver in a timely manner. read more

"Honest * Reliable * Friendly * High Quality Work" Earlier this year I was searching for a transmission shop for work needed on my Honda. After reading through reviews and feedback posted on-line, I chose Doug's Performance Transmission. I've been completely satisfied with their high level of work, very reasonable rates and great customer service! I would recommend them to anyone needing transmission or auto care work! read more

I took my vehicle here early this month for what I assumed would be a massive overhaul to my transmission. I dropped my vehicle off after a quick test drive and they got back to me with an estimate the following afternoon. Overall I was very surprised with how quick the estimate and repairs went. It took about a day or two (closed on the weekend) to repair. The overhaul consisted of a master rebuild, a drive shaft replacement, and replacement of the yokes. The most important thing is I received a fast and honest quote. For the amount of work I had done I believe I paid a good price. The quickness of service was also a plus. Things to note: They (like normal people) eat lunch. The couple times I stopped in I waited around for them to get back. So Id show up before 11 and after 1230. Their work is warranted. This was a big deal for me. All my work is covered by a 2 year / 24k mile warranty. My repairs went fantastic but my engine light came back on so I may need to bring mine back. Either way i'm content with the work. Overall, I am satisfied. If you are looking for good honest transmission work in the east valley, Dougs is for you. read more

Just had my service vans transmission rebuilt by Doug's. This is my 2nd vehicle in 2 years done by them. The 1st one is still shifting like new and running great ! If you're having issues with you transmission save yourself time and make them you 1st stop !! read more

The service I got here was ok. They were very nice people and even gave me a ride home and picked me up but they missed a very important issue on my car that I am very glad Patriots caught. Also I felt the labor costs were a tad extreme. All in all I won't be going back here. read more

So glad I went out of my way to find these guys! Quick and honest service! Great Workers! Will be going back for all my tires......!! read more

Hard to find trust worthy individuals to work on your vehicle. Doug's Transmission has them. Oil changes ,Transmission work,any problems needing addressed on your vehicle these guys will fix it right the first time. Talk to Darren he is very knowledgeable. I will continue to support this business. Also they give Veterans a 10% discount. read more

This place is sad for some reason I got lied to from these people . I take my car there to find out what the the noise is that was never making before. They check it out drove it to come back and say ur car is ok not a thing wrong. I knew there was something . So I took it to, two other places and they tell me it's a lifter which is pretty important control rod can do other things bad so why couldn't dogs auto and transmission tell me this is it cuz he's friends with my nephew whom they all don't care about me but don't take it out on my car by lying to me. 4is the rate I give. This could have turned out bad. Who can we trust any more read more

These fine fellas installed rear differential gears in my older mustang.There was a minor problem after a couple of months or so. They went above and beyond what might have been required and re-did the whole job at no cost to me! I've been most impressed with their honesty and quality work. As a retired/disabled mechanic I can say without reservation that these are the guys you want fixing your car or truck. read more

Honest, fair priced and high quality work. If you something done on your vehicle and need it done fast, I highly recommend these guys! Amazing service. read more

This is my second time there, and both times went very well, I will be back a third time when I need them, they seem very honest and are fair. They do a booming business also. read more

took the ole beater in with a leaking transmission. This place is great, the manager was very nice, and helpful, the other workers were great. they didn't try to up sell me, or try to get me have things i didn't need done. if you need trans work , run to this place. no pressure here. 2 thumbs up. read more

The guys at Doug's are honest and straightforward. While waiting I watched as Darren helped a loyal past customer find parts and arrange for a replacement transmission elsewhere because it was better and less expensive for the customer than rebuilding the existing transmission.. I guarantee most shops would not help someone find a better solution. But that is why they have a loyal following. I will absolutely bring all my vehicles here for service from now on. read more

I was impressed with this shop. The techs are very professional and know their business. I got a very fair price on a new transmission for my van. The shop manager Darren was very courteous and helpful. My car was fixed right the first time with no defects in instsllation or workmanship, It is a very busy shop and they could use a bigger building due to the growth of their business. The only improvement they could use is some outdoor shelving or racks to put parts on as they are removed and installed on the vehicle. while it is on the lift. I was a little worried because parts seemed to be everywhere when I went to look at my vehicle. People say it is one of Apache Junction's best transmission shops and I will have to agree. Highly reccomended. I would certainly go back to them. read more

Doug's Transmission is definitely the place to go. Darren is so kind and straightforward when it comes to diagnosing the issue(s) with your vehicle. Everyone is super friendly and makes you feel comfortable the second you walk in the office. Great group of guys; I highly recommend stopping by and seeing them if you are having problems with your vehicle. read more

We went to Dougs Transmission this am because that seemed to have a lot of support. We arrived at just after 9am. Explained the situation and let them know this car was really needed to get to work. We dealt with Darren who was amazing. He looked at the car and was pretty sure he knew what it was. Called to check if the part was available, gave us an estimate and told us he would squeeze it in and have it ready by close. THREE hours later he called to tell us it was ready! 3 HOURS! Unbelievable customer service. He also gave us a heads up on something else we need done. He wasn't pushy, just wanted us to know. We were so impressed with him. We made arrangements for my sons car to get an A/C charge next week. We will definitely be back for any future work. read more

I feel very confident about my repair. It seems like they went through it with a fine tooth comb. The price was very reasonable as well, Jacob kept me constantly in the loop during the entire job Thanks for making what can be a stress full situation a pleasure! read more

I am from out of town and the clutch throwout bearing failed on my Dodge 4x4. They were very professional, honest and promptly got me back on the road. Price was fair and they did not try to take advantage of me as a broke down tourist. I highly recommend them. read more

If you want quality work done fast and efficiently combined with fair pricing. Go to Doug's Transmission. I recommend them

Was referred to Dougs Transmissions by King Windshields and they were great. What I thought would have been possibly an expensive job was minor adjustment and a little maintenance. DARRYN was great and professional and even funny. I will recommend you guys. read more

Went to Dougs to have my air conditioner repaired less than a year ago. Air isn't blowing as cold as it should. Was informed that while still under warranty for time isn't still covered because over mileage for warranty? How absurd is that. I don't drive the air conditioner. Mileage shouldn't matter. I didn't use it all winter. First off the repair cost more than the original estimate but I felt like they would stand behind the job and I trusted them. Won't make that mistake again read more

Extremely Impressed ! ! Long Review but worth it ! I was in town from San Diego to visit my Girlfriend and catch some Spring Training Games. I had just bought a Used Truck (2004 Chevy1500) While driving out to Az. I felt the O.D. in the Transmission was not engaging, RPM's were running high on the freeway. Being a Retired State Mechanic & owning a small Custom Shop in San Diego, I'am the type that has Always done all my own work since I was 18. I found "Doug's " on the computer and went there Really expecting them to tell me my Transmission was gone. (Being an out of towner and all) When I arrived they came right out and immediately hooked their computer up and took me and the truck for a approx. 30 min ride to check everything, ( I will call him the "Computer Guy") well, he was Very open and up front of what was happening at every moment. We got back and he said Transmission was running good & Strong But, I did have a Miss in the Engine & MAS sensor wasn't pulling the proper amount of Air in. It is a custom lifted truck so, they suggested "Let's pull the Differential covers and see what Gears are in it" ( to see if it was upgraded) They offered to pull Diff covers to see what gears were in it and service. The (Gear Guy) pulled Diff covers, found the truck had custom Lower Gears in it, explaining the High RPM's but Tranny was great. These guy are Very Honest, Forthright, I was very impressed with them Not trying to sell me anything or falsely telling me things were wrong with my truck, so I let them have the work they found, Complete Tune-Up, Service Axles, Replace MAS sensor. The work was completed in a very timely manner, good quality, the biggest part was they Never tried to sell me anything I didn't need and the Quote matched the Final Bill and the Price was very good. (Better than Cali) While I was there, I sat back and watched how they deal with customers, Men & Women, They were always honest, spoke with respect (Not over anyones head) and professional. I returned to San Diego and took my truck into my shop and looked it over, they did everything they said and properly. I Highly Recommend Anyone one, Male or Female needing Automotive work to Experience the same treatment I did, you will leave happy and confident your money was spent well. My Girlfriend knowing Nothing about car's, I have recommended for her to go there for Any issues she may have, also any of my friends & customers that go to Az. with their toys to play, I have and will tell them to go to Doug's for any issues. As a Mechanic myself, I'am very Happy to have found Doug's while in town. Thank You Doug's Transmission. M.Bean Bust-A-Nut Motorsports read more
