The check engine light on my dashboard came on, and I took my car to an Aamco shop, where a mechanic told me that the diagnostic message indicated that there was something wrong with my transmission's torque converter, and I was told that I was going to have to get the transmission replaced. I was given an estimate of $6,000, which is more than what I paid for the car when I purchased it six years ago.
I decided to get a second opinion, and I took the car to this shop in Salem, which is an hour away from where I live. Robert identified that the issue was a bad solenoid, which had been causing the check engine light to come on, even though there was nothing wrong with the torque converter itself. This saved me a considerable amount of money, to say the least, and I am very grateful to Robert for his honesty and integrity, because I was certainly prepared to pay to have my vehicle's transmission replaced, if that had been stated to be the necessary course of action.
This is an honest mechanic. I highly recommend this shop. read more
