Our car broke down in Texas and the list online suggested this place, they were very polite and seem professional however, after paying almost $4,000.00 and only 2.5 years later the transmission is out again and our warranty is no longer valid because as they said "that company is no longer in existence" Yes. Please stay away from this people unless you have money to throw away. read more

Warning! This shop has changed name to "Young Mans Automotive" in an effort to side step negative reviews. Took my truck to this place for a second opinion on my transmission after being quoted a hefty price to rebuild from another shop. It had been over heating. They have a "transmission expert of 30 years" supposedly working there who assured me my transmission was in great shape and all I needed was an after market cooler. After spending $750 on an after market cooler and service, my transmission fails several days later. I took it to a professional shop who had quite the knowledge and expertise and I had failed several planetary gears, overdrive box, and they rebuilt the whole transmission. Also, the cooler was installed incorrectly which could have damaged my system even more. There were so many metal shavings found in the transmission oil that we had to flush my radiator. I'm sure this shop is great for replacing alternators and oil changed, but do yourself a favor and take your transmission to a specialist. Wasted a whole lot of money when them and back to square one. read more

if you want to get ripped off and have your car sit here for three weeks go ahead and give them a shot. Otherwise I would suggest going somewhere else that doesn't have a bunch of phony five star reviews from the owner. Make sure you read all of the reviews before you go to this place. They are complete amateurs and only want to make money. read more

When picking up my truck to take it home to Oklahoma the transmission was in pieces in the bed of my truck WTF!

This is a horrible business. Look closely at the plaques on the wall: Richard garZa was certified back in 2007, so as of June 2015 it is without a doubt expired (ASE and ATRA certifications need to be renewed every 5 years). First he'll say that they need to open up your transmission, which he'll try to charge you $380 for. Then, after you tell him you're going somewhere else, his manager Dave will call the office phone and talk to you. Dave will say anything to keep you there: 40% off special, student discounts, etc. Dave's a really dishonest guy.

Scam artists plain and simple. Discovered Master Transmission online and since they're located near me, I brought my 2001 Hyundai Elantra in to have them check it out, as it had been shifting erratically every now and then -- huge mistake. I did some research on the problems I was having and determined it was likely a faulty speed sensor, and mentioned this to the manager and the mechanic on duty. After driving the car for about 15 minutes, they determined there was a major problem with the transmission and that they'd have to open up the transmission to diagnose it. Believing these guys to be trustworthy, honest people I allowed them to proceed with the diagnosis (a $400 expense). A few days later the manager calls- apparently the transmission needs to be completely rebuilt and it's going to cost me $2500. At this point my options are to eat the cost of the diagnosis and try to take it elsewhere for a second opinion or to bite the bullet and proceed with the repairs. I decide to go ahead with the transmission rebuild and (begrudgingly) fork over the $2500, a huge amount of money for an already struggling college student. A week or so later I get another call from the manager-- my car is ready to be picked up. "Great!" I thought. "This was incredibly expensive but at least now my car will function as it should" --not the case. After driving the car for less than 12 hours, it began to shift erratically. Again. THE EXACT PROBLEM I HAD BEFORE TAKING IT IN WAS HAPPENING AGAIN- NO DIFFERENCE WHATSOEVER. At this point, I'm irate-- what did I just pay over two thousand dollars for???? The "repairs" they supposedly performed were under warranty, so I took the car back in and explained what was happening. A few days later, another call from the manager-- "Hey we've got your car ready to go, turns out it was just a speed sensor acting up so we went ahead and replaced it." I can't believe what I'm hearing-- is this guy really telling me that the SAME SENSOR THAT I INITIALLY BELIEVED TO BE THE PROBLEM WAS ACTUALLY THE PROBLEM THE WHOLE TIME AND I'D BEEN DUPED OUT OF $2500???? I go back to pick the car up and am obviously upset. I demand the manager show me physical proof that the transmission legitimately needed to be replaced, proof that I hadn't just been scammed out of a huge sum of money-- to no avail. He obfuscated and told me that they "don't keep those kind of records" and that "the faulty parts had already been thrown away"-- according to him there was absolutely no way he could prove to me that I had paid for a necessary repair. PLEASE AVOID MASTER TRANSMISSION AT ALL COSTS!! Learn from my experience and, if you're ever faced with a transmission issue, talk to friends and family-- get recommendations and references and make sure you're dealing with an honest person or establishment. I learned this the hard way-- you don't have to. read more

So absolutely stunned this place is still in business! They supposedly rebuilt the transmission and charged thousands of dollars only to damage more parts while they were at it. Said it was ready to pick up and when went to pick it up there was another issue and then another. Thought they could be trusted as they have been in business for a while! Had to take vehicle to another shop who had to replace all sort of parts that were damaged and clearly the transmission was not rebuilt! Very shady! Stay clear! What could have been a simple repair turned into a nightmare! Now having to pay over $5000 just to get it fixed, out the $3000 for a 10 year warranty transmission rebuild! Rebuild haha more like transmission destroy! All we asked was for them to refund what they didn't rebuild and no response! Now they simply don't answer phone calls! Anyone else have $3000 to throw away??? Then this is your place! For the rest of us single parents who do all they can to make ends meet, thanks for screwing us over and lying to us!! After looking at Reviews and arrest records of Howard David Yeubanks he is NOT to be trusted. Has opened other transmission companies, claimed warranty, conned people out of thousands of dollars and then closed shop only to open another and claims that his employees are certified. read more

ZERO STARS!!! My transmission went out for starters they charged 1300$ for the rebuild and after my cruise control didn't work! I needed the car so didn't worry to much about it. But then not only 2 MONTHS of having the car the TRANSMISSION WENT OUT AGAIN!! I call them they tell me I have to PAY for the tow because they wont. Even if they do a crappy job. THEY ARENT MASTER TRANSMISSION EXPERTS! A waste of my time and money. I went with them because they claim it's free towing but they tac it on the end of the invoice. So u PAY for it in the long run. Never again will I send any of my vehicles to them! JUST LOOKING TO MAKE A QUICK BUCK! Don't Do It! read more

This shop is always providing a reliable good service. They are upfront and will tell what be the best recommendation that is applicable without making you spend lots of money or even file a claim with your insurance. They can be trusted. read more

only made a yelp account so I can tell everyone how AWFUL this place is. Got my transmission replaced here about a year ago, what a surprise not even a year later and it's gone completely out. Took it back a second time since it should have been under warranty but alas, i went "over the mileage" about 1500 over. Tell me why after I get it fixed the second time, not even a week and the car is literally having the same problems as before if not worse. So I have to take it back in AGAIN. AFTER I JUST PAID THEM A SHIT TON TO FIX IT A SECOND TIME. I only went back the second time because I thought my car was still under the warranty. They did try to work with me and give me a discount, but it's really frustrating because they keep telling me my car is going to be ready by certain days and then they call me last minute before they're about to close and say it's not. I've had to call into work multiple times because of this ( i need my car in order to work because my job requires me to drive). I've called them TWICE today. Once around 10 am and another around 5pm asking if my car would be ready today. The man said yes. The guy literally just called me (5:56 pm) and said my car isn't going to be ready until tomorrow. This is making me call into work AGAIN might i add i'm supposed to be there at 6. Cool. Don't really like this business and I would not recommend to anyone. Don't waste your time here unless you've got thousands of dollars to throw in the trash read more

Deceptive!!! Deceptive!!! Dishonest!!!! FRAUD!!! READ... READ AND KEEP READING ....THE MANY POOR REVIEWS DAVE AND HIS SHADY SET OF CHARACTERS HAVE GOTTEN! My transmission failed on my car last week. I had it towed to a local dealership. The service technicians told me the transmission was bad and the cost to replace it was going to be $5500. The car isn't worth that much, so I started calling transmission shops to see if anyone was interested in buying the car with a bad transmission. Dave or David Eubanks of Master Transmission, located a short distance from the dealer was my first call! David talked me out of selling my vehicle with as is, with the bad transmission, and offered to pick it up for free, claiming he does transmission work for the dealer and would charge me a fraction of the cost. After giving him the vehicle vin #, he quoted me $800 to $1000 to repair the transmission and he would tow it to his shop for free. He calls me the same afternoon and tells me that due to the convertor being bad, he will need to conduct an inspection by taking the transmission apart for a fee of $385.00, but not to worry, the fee would be included in the repair. I told him I didn't want to spend more than $1500 regardless of what he finds, and he again promissed it wouldn't cost that much. The following day, I called for a status, and he quoted me a fee of $2700.00. I told him I couldn't afford it and how upset I was that he took advantage of the situation by misleading me and misrepresenting his fees, and services. He pleaded with me to keep the car there for repairs, and told me all I would have to do is say "repair it". He wouldn't charge me anything for the repairs, until I sold the vehicle. In fact, he would keep the car on his lot, while advertised for sale. Any interested party, would need to see the vehicle, while parket on his lot. Once the sale was complete, he would give me the difference! I told him I was on my way to the shop, and when I got there he had just stepped out of the office (lies lies lies.. I was just on the phone with him in the parking lot). He stuck me with a towing fee $95 and an inspection fee of $385.00. Payable only by cash or cashiers check!!! The vehicle was on the lift and the transmission was in a box. I asked his technician why they didn't conduct a diagnostic check, as advertised, on their website and technician claimed they did, however would not provide me with a copy. He said instead they wrote it on the invoice. Right! David Eubanks is in the business of deception, not auto repair. From what I've read, he closed down his last transmission shop, called the Transmission Depot. He needs to be put out of business permanently. I will be reporting to all the local media, and filing with the attorney general. P.S. READ THE EXPIRED read more

Worst place to go. They try to scam you out of money and they don't care, and they don't own up to their mistakes. They lie and try to push the problems off to " corporate " but if you looks up the website it says "family owned". Don't go their read more

Ok try this one more time. two years ago my dodge trans went out. Took it to Richard at MT and they got it right in. Wound up being shot so they rebuilt it and all was good with the world. Then July 4th 2015 it quit moving.. Called Richard and once again got it right in. Dave called next day to inform me it had some elect problems but they were still gonna take care of it and it would be ready next day. didnt get it back next day like said but I can understand its a business. Spoke with them earlier and it should be ready today. I will update when that happens or repost but it is very hard to find any type of mechanic that will not take advantage of you. Thx Richard and Dave read more

DO NOT GO HERE!!!!! My daughter went in for a fluid change and was conned into allowing an inspection of her transmission. Not aware they would break it down into pieces They called the next morning stating it needed to be rebuilt and would cost $3500 to put it back together. My husband had a diagnostic check completed days before and transmission was fine! We have that documented thankfully. We told them to box up the parts and to not complete any work. Within a 30 minute time frame they claimed it was ready. We were disputing and after 10 days including holidays, they contacted the finance company and stated they had to get it off his lot or he was filing a lien on it. They definitely con young women and if they do that they will con anyone. You cannot speak to them because they yell and talk over you when you won't pay for work they claim they completed. I wouldn't trust the work and they offer no warranty unless you pay another $350. If they do such great work why wouldn't they offer a warranty on what you just paid for??? Masters????? Definitely CON MASTERS!!!!!! #DB read more

I can confirm everything the other reviews stated especially Daniel P. everything he is saying is the same thing happen to me. I took my daughter's car to them why it was running but the AFL light was on. I told Richard Garza by phone it is probably the sensor needed to be replaced. He said they needed to look inside to see what the problem was but it will cost $385. He didn't say they had to take it apart and I didn't tell him to take it apart because I know you don't have to take it apart to check it out. When I got there from Dallas He showed me His diagnosis machine because I requested to see it. and it was the size of a laptop. I ask him let me see the printout. He didn't have one. He said the transmission needed to be repaired. I told him I will take it someone where else for a second opinion. He told me he had to take it apart to check all the parts. He took every part out of the transmission and it was laying on a table. I told him to put it back together and I would pay the $385 because at this time I didn't want them to fix it. He then tried to talk me into it, when he didn't succeed; we went backward and forth and he didn't want to put it back together after I talk with 3 other transmission places in Denton, they told me since he has took it apart to go ahead and let them fix it. After the suppose repair the cost was $2300 Cashier's check. I was not going to pay that. I received a call from the owner who told me his name was Richard (a lie) also but looking at the review from Daniel it probable was Dave which told me he would only charge me $1750 . I then ask for 3 year warranty. He gave it to me. When I went to pickup the car, the mechanic said it needed a Transmission mount which is an additional $135.58. The total cost was $1885.58. Beware they ask you to pay in a Cashier's check, now I know why. After a week, the car was shaking and making a noise. I took it back to Master Transmission, the owner was there, I told him it was a Vaccum hose and he agreed with me and told me he will have it check out. When I went to pick it up Richard was there and Dave was gone. Richard told me because the car was 1 qt oil low that was causing the shaking. I told him that not true I know a little bit about cars, nevertheless, I took the car to get a oil change. 3 weeks later my daughter put the car in reverse to back out; it back up a little bit and stop. She shifted it to drive, the noise started up again and it would not move. She had to get someone to help her push it back in her parking space. I am so glad it happen why she was in her apt complex. Do not take your car to Master Transmission, especially in Denton, TX off of Hwy 35. We really need to file a lawsuit. Richard has nerve to ask me to give them a good review. I am glad I waited because they are a scam. Even one of the Transmission places I called said I shouldn't have took my car their. read more
