Very impressed with both the work and the integrity of this shop. I brought them a Subaru with an…read moreintermittent transmission fault that had triggered several warning lights. They spent 2 1/2 days trying to duplicate and isolate the problem, thoroughly checked the external wiring harness, and tested the suspected speed sensor. Everything checked out and the transmission continued to operate normally. Rather than guess or start replacing parts at my expense, they installed a used but known-good speed sensor they had available and told me to drive it and come back if the problem returns. At that point they can continue troubleshooting with at least two possible causes eliminated. Sometimes the best repair shop is the one willing to say, "We can't reproduce the problem, the transmission is functioning normally, and we don't want to charge you for work we can't justify." Five stars earned.

I am writing this review to warn future customers about my unacceptable experience with Affordable…read moreTransmission and Auto Repair Center regarding an ATRA nationwide warranty repair. Background and Initial Service: My vehicle's transmission was rebuilt a few months ago by a different authorized ATRA shop. Due to a recent move, the original shop authorized me to bring the car to this affiliate location, a 30-mile drive from my new home, for a warranty diagnosis. Upon drop-off on 11/18/2025, the front desk employee immediately became cold and dismissive when I mentioned the words "warranty repair." The Issue & The Refusal to Diagnose: The problem is specific and reproducible: when the car is cold, driving downhill causes the transmission to shift into what feels like neutral. Pressing the gas results in rising RPMs but no movement, forcing me to shut the engine off and restart it to re-engage the drive. After two days, I received a call informing me they could not reproduce the issue and were refusing to work on the car. I explained to Miguel that the condition requires a cold start and a specific downhill coast, asking them to try again or keep the car longer. He flatly refused any further testing, stating they were done with the vehicle. Integrity Violation and Fraudulent Documentation: Since they refused to honor the warranty, I requested a written reason for the denial of service, which is standard procedure. Miguel went to review my paperwork. When he returned, he presented a form and demanded I sign it before he would provide any written explanation. This form was an explicit waiver where I would acknowledge that the issue I claimed was not present and that their testing proved my claim was false. I refused to sign a document that was contrary to reality, as the transmission issue is demonstrably still present. The Threat and Escalation: Because I refused to sign the false waiver, Miguel refused to give me any written denial and escalated the situation. He told me he wouldn't help me anymore because I was "not a nice person." When I stated I would write an accurate review of this unprofessional experience, he raised his voice and began threatening me: Threats of litigation. Explicit threats of physical harm to myself and/or my property at my home. Threats to contact my employer to have me fired. I immediately took my keys and walked to my car, with Miguel following me out of the office, continuing to curse and issue threats. This behavior is far beyond poor customer service; it is menacing, unprofessional, and a direct failure to honor the ATRA warranty program. The shop refused to perform due diligence, attempted to force me to sign a false legal document, and threatened my physical safety. Avoid this business at all costs.

First of all, this review is for people who are used to going to typical auto shops. You'll have a…read morebetter experience if you know what you're getting into. Alberto's isn't your typical automotive shop. There's no waiting room and it's kind of difficult to find. That being said, the father and son who run the shop were very nice and efficient. My husband took our vehicle in for an oil change. The price wasn't cheap, but it seemed about what other shops were quoting so it was fair. And everything is more expensive right now. It's always scary trying to find a new automotive place. We picked Alberto's because the Yelp profile said they had a waiting room and their reviews were good and they had supposedly been in business 20 years. I think their Yelp profile needs updating because they don't have a waiting room and the father told us they've been in business 2 and a half years and the son said 4 and a half but Yelp said 20 years. So we don't know what to believe, but they did a great job! :D I don't want to give the wrong impression. We would go back there again for an oil change. We prefer supporting small businesses. I just think you need to be aware of what you're getting into so you're prepared for what the experience will be so you don't judge them too harshly.

People do yourself a favor and go somewhere else for your transmission repairs. This place is a…read morejoke. I've been in the automotive industry for 10+ year I've installed over 75 of this exact transmission never without a problem. I recently within the last 3 year made a switch to heavy equipment and just didn't have the time to do the work myself. I removed my transmission out of my Tahoe took it in to do a exchange and I good transmission which the supposed to of have in stock. After waiting for a couple hours I was informed they did not have the trans I needs so I needed to come back and get it at a later day. That was strike one. So when I finally got my trans back I installed it. Drove around for a bit maybe 10 miles or so. The next day I decide I'm gonna take it to work (30 miles away). Well on the way to work I lost 4 gear. So I called and let him know what was going on and he wanted me to bring it in. So the next day I took it in the whole Tahoe. That's strike two So he looks it over and calls me. This guy tried every excuse he could think of to put me at blame for his transmission failing. After a very heated conversation ( I told him not to touch it we would figure it out with the BBB) he tell me he's gonna fix it "and if I wanted to pay him for the extra repairs he was gonna do then that's fine if I didn't that was fine too". So after a week or so it's done. So I go in to get it and it was another 500-600 bill. So I paid it after all he did do the work so I felt it was only right even tho it was his trans that failed within 40 miles. Strike three So here we are 6 and 18 days later and guess what? It failed again. So my wife calls just to find out with they would honor any kind of warranty. The guy gets on the phone being super disrespectful and angry. And surprise surprise he will not honor his work. Pretty much told us to bad it's not my problem anymore. So please people for the love of god do not take your vehicles to this shop. Mark my words you will regret it. For all the money I ended up paying this guy for the shotty work and now I'm gonna have to buy another trans I could of bought a brand new trans from GM. Oh well live and learn I guess. Not all business owners are trustworthy.
