From the beginning, John, the owner, and his son Jonathan were honest, knowledgeable, and straightforward with me. What I appreciated most was that they took the time to properly look into the problem instead of immediately telling me I needed the most expensive repair. They explained everything in a way that was easy to understand, kept me informed throughout the process, and got my Camaro repaired and back on the road. John and Jonathan genuinely seem to care about their customers and doing the job right. After all the stress I had been dealing with trying to get my car fixed, it was a huge relief finding a transmission shop I could trust. Great customer service, honest people, and quality work. I'll definitely be coming back to El Monte Transmission for any future transmission needs. Thank you John, Jonathan, and the whole team! Highly recommend!

He explained that the transmission was having trouble shifting into third gear and would eventually need to be rebuilt. He also provided an estimate for the repair. Since the car is older, I decided not to invest additional money in rebuilding the transmission. Even though I chose not to proceed with the service, John still took the time to explain my options and recommend what I should do next. He went above and beyond, especially considering that the diagnostic was free. I truly appreciate John's honesty, helpful recommendations, and excellent customer service. I highly recommend him.

I was recommended to take my 2013 Nissan Sentra to GP1 when the transmission started to have…read moreissues. After doing a lot of research and comparing I was confident that GP1 also had the best prices when it comes to the Nissan transmissions. This is something that they specialize in compared to normal transmission shops. Cindy was extremely communicative and very transparent with me the entire time my car was at GP1. They helped me understand what my options were and what all price estimates and different scenarios entailed. I eventually decided to replace my transmission entirely with a new one due to the age of the car. The whole thing took about a week, which was no problem for me. There is a 2 year/ 25k mile warranty they stand by so I'll be coming back to give an update on how my transmission is working but overall my experience was very positive and I'd recommend them to other Nissan owners.

My dad first recommended them to me and said they are trust worthy shop to go to. He was right about that. I took my Honda civic in for an AC issue and Ayeme was able to find it was under warranty and recommended me to a trust worthy dealership to have it fixed. I had visit other dealership around my area that made it difficult just to inspect my car, but at L&T it was a smooth process and I was greeted with smiles and professionalism which I appreciate. I stopped going to L&T since I moved further away but now this shop will be my primary go to moving forward. I will gladly drive a bit further to have the assurance my car will be taken care of. Thank you Albert and Ayeme and also your team for everything.

I was quoted $1,450 to replace the blower motor and resistor. The explanation given to me was that it would have to be aftermarket parts and it was labor intensive, thus the $1400+ cost. I declined the service because it seemed to high a price and, this is where I'm disappointed by the owner, while he explained the cost, he said it with a smirk. This didn't settle well with me. He charged me $265 for the synthetic oil change and for the inspection. I assume that he changed me 2hours for the inspection. After I left I searched what the average constant for replacing a blower motor and resistor. The average cost is $200 parts and labor minus tax. I ended up buying the parts and replacing the blower and resistor on my own for under $100 and it took me about 2 hours (because I am not a mechanic). I'm certain that a professional would have taken less than an hour to fix. I am looking for an honest explanation from the company as to why I was quoted that amount and why the inspection was so expensive. I really want to give them a second chance but I might be looking for another mechanic. I take 2 cars to get regular maintenance and the occasional big ticket item.

I had an excellent experience with Alexander Auto Service while diagnosing a persistent misfire on…read moremy 2016 Mercedes-Benz Metris. I had previously taken the van to the dealership, where the spark plugs and ignition coils were replaced, but the misfire was still not resolved. Alexander performed a thorough diagnostic and correctly determined that the fuel injectors were causing the problem. He replaced the injectors and used dealer-level Mercedes diagnostic equipment to properly code and program them to the vehicle. We also discovered significant carbon buildup on the intake valves, which is common on direct-injection engines. Alexander had the proper walnut-blasting equipment and performed an intake-valve carbon cleaning. I was very impressed with his knowledge of Mercedes vehicles, advanced computer diagnostics, fuel-injector programming, and direct-injection systems. His diagnosis was accurate and his work was professional. The shop also provides general auto repair, tires, wheel alignments, transmission repair, and other automotive services. I highly recommend Alexander Auto Service to anyone looking for an honest and knowledgeable mechanic, especially for difficult diagnostic problems that other repair shops or dealerships have been unable to solve. I'm very pleased with the work and would definitely bring my vehicle back.

I brought my vehicle in because my air…read moreconditioning wasn't blowing cold enough, and I ended up being charged $253 for a diagnostic that I did not authorize. On top of that, I was quoted approximately $1,700 in repairs. I went in expecting help with my air conditioning, not an unexpected diagnostic charge and a repair estimate that high. I was extremely frustrated with how the situation was handled, especially being charged for a service I did not approve. Customers deserve clear communication, transparency, and the opportunity to approve charges before work is performed. Based on my experience, I would encourage anyone considering this shop to ask questions, confirm all diagnostic fees upfront, and make sure they authorize any charges before allowing work to proceed. I would not return based on this experience.

Waldo is very friendly, knowledgeable, and kept me informed every step of the way. I have been told by other transmission shop that the minimum fees to diagnosis my car (Subaru 2015) will at least take one day and if there is a tramission problem it will cost around $3000-$4000 with one week repair time.. Luckily, I was referred to Os Transmissions by my mechanic and met Waldo. He made sure that we just need to replace the tranmission valve body just around $1500 and it only took half a day! He did the diagnosis right away after I went to him. Just right after the replacement we have been driving and traveling for one week and my car runs smoothly. He gave us warranty for one year. Waldo and his team is a pro! # Highlights: - *Fast and accurate diagnosis*: He quickly identified the issue with my transmission and provided a detailed estimate. - *Quality workmanship*: The repairs were done efficiently and correctly, and my car is now running smoothly. - *Competitive pricing*: The cost was very reasonable, especially considering the high-quality work. # Rating Breakdown: - Quality of Work: 5/5 - Customer Service: 5/5 - Pricing: 5/5 - Timeliness: 5/5 # Recommendation: If you're looking for a trustworthy transmission shop, look no further than OS Transmissions. They truly care about their customers and do excellent work.

I've repeatedly had to chase down updates, and by my count, the promised completion date has changed more than 30 times. After driving my vehicle over 20 miles, they are now telling me it needs a replacement engine. The shop then had my car towed to an Audi dealership and told me to deal directly with the dealership from that point forward. Now I'm being told I have to pay the dealership to retrieve my car, which still isn't repaired and appears to be in worse condition than when this started. After months of delays, broken promises, and poor communication, I have completely lost confidence in this shop's ability to repair my vehicle or take responsibility for its work. Based on my experience, I would strongly recommend taking your vehicle elsewhere.
