What could of turned into a worse situation, ended up turning out pretty great because of calling them and being able to take my truck there close to Timberline ski area and Mt. Hood. They fixed a pretty huge job, figuring what went wrong with a rebuilt tranny and let me know everything that was happening. Feel was very honest and comfortable talking to owner or son. Felt a lot of confidence and trust in them and would definitely take a car back there again, or recommend to others if back in area. The tranny ran well for the next couple years before eventually got a newer truck, was stoked. Great guy, and shop!!:) Thanks so much gain!! +++

The first was a few months back and I called in a frantic because my car was having issues. I'm a single mom and at the time I was the only one financially and physically taking care of my two young children. I left a short massage at first at multiple auto places nearby and they were the only one to call back. I let them know that I was really in need of help because I had to be able to get to get my kids to school (they were missing that day due to the car) and I had to get to work later. They made sure to get me in that day and were so kind and reasonably priced. I didn't feel as though they took any advantage of my situation. Skip to the last couple days I called because my brakes were grinding. They got me in just a couple short days later. When they called for me to pick up my car I told them it may take me a few as myself and my kids would be taking the bus. Instantly they said not to worry about that and they would bring my car to me. Less than 10min later they dropped it off. Honestly, it warmed my heart and truly took the stress off my plate! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! You don't know how much your customer service meant to me. I'm a customer for life!

Worst experience I've had in my entire life. We found this mechanic, based off good reviews and one…read moreof the lower prices we were quoted we thought it was a slam dunk. Came in for a new transmission, broken AC and a leaking tire. Was told it would be a week, which sounds good as that was every time line we were told from other places we called. A week goes by and the parts still weren't in, again I mean that's just shipping and it happens, can't really blame the shop. After a week and a half they install the new transmission, but said there was something wrong so they kept working on it. Another week goes by and they say they need to order ANOTHER trans. At this point we are very frustrated as we needed this vehicle back 3 weeks ago. But I mean who knows what is really going on so we just hang tight. Finally, a MONTH later, we get a text that the trans was replaced and good to go but they didn't have time to fully fix the ac. Didn't have time? You had it for a month and decided until the last day to look at the AC. They replaced the blower motor but said they would have to take the whole thing out and didn't have time for it, so it was ultimately a temporary fix for a full charge. After asking for a price break down he gave us $150 off. Woopie after a $7,500 ordeal that didn't feel sufficient. They then charged our card for the second half of our bill after we explicitly said "we do not authorize this charge" and we also don't remember saying they could save the card on file..... if that wasn't all enough to make us never come back we then find out the tire was never fixed after it went flat on the road a few days later. To which the guy says "looks like I forgot" !!! Now the AC stopped working because again it was never actually fixed in the first place. Truly unacceptable from start to finish. They clearly do not care about doing a good job and just want your money. He asked us multiple times to pay the remaining balance before we even picked up the vehicle or had any work done. Avoid at all costs.

But Nash wanted to still make this right. Upon talking to Nash the next day, he wanted to send an employee an hour to my house to pick up the Van and take it back to his shop. After receiving the Van and looking it over, it was determined the transmission needed removed and rebuilt. Nash rebuilt the transmission and had his employee deliver it back to my house, without asking a single cent. I am blown away by this generous new Owner, who didn't even own the shop when it was rebuilt before. I haven't really driven the Van since receiving it back yesterday. But on a short test drive, it ran without issue. Thank you Nash! Original review: I had my 2001 Honda Odyssey transaxle rebuilt by Trans Medic about three years ago for $2,400. Unfortunately, my experience has been frustrating from the start. This van was a highway commuter. So it wasn't a lot of hard shifting or stop and go. Ilive an hour away, so every trip to their shop means a two-hour round trip and arranging for someone to follow me. After the rebuild, I had to make not just one, but two extra trips because the shift solenoid wasn't functioning. From day one, the van still had a hard shift into first gear, but I lived with it. Now, only 30k miles later, the transmission is again having trouble engaging in D3 and D4. The D4 and check engine lights started flashing, and a P1753 code pointed to a TCC issue. I replaced both the TCC and shift solenoids myself to save on labor costs--both looked very old and oxidized, which makes me wonder if the originals were ever replaced during the rebuild. I bench tested the solenoids I removed, and they were both operational and within spec, meaning the issue clearly runs deeper. Despite my repairs, the same shifting problems returned almost immediately. Now I'm getting a P0740 code, and the lights are back on. Yes, Honda Odyssey transmissions, within a few years of my 2001, are known for problems, but this should not be happening again at just 30k miles. The shop's 12-month/12k-mile warranty is useless in situations like this, and when I called today, I was told to bring it back--something I'm unwilling to do unless they commit to a no-cost rebuild. And would be again, two people in two different rigs, making two different two hour round trips. I'm glad others may have had better experiences, but for me, the quality and follow-up were deeply disappointing. I came here based on reputation and all the solid reviews. I harbor no ill-will or anger, just total disappointment. Now I'm getting rid of the van As-is and stressed out. After also replacing front tires, brake pads and oil change, the same day I did the solenoid swap. That was $400 tossed away. And to those reading, NEVER buy a 2001 Honda Odyssey.

Ended up having my truck dropped off a week early and picking it up the day before I was originally supposed to bring it in.
