I have a 2009 Chevy HHR. I've driven it all over the place. Mainly to work in Port Arthur. Then,…read moreafter I retired, I used it as a Waitr delivery driver for almost a year. It had ALWAYS made noises. Rattling, clanking when I hit a bump. You know, usual stuff. Well, it got to the point where I couldn't hear myself think. I brought it to Alton's because my wife recalled one of her relatives had worked there years ago and said, "They are good people". My wife is a good judge of people. I called and spoke with Miss Susie. She said to bring it in and they would take a look at it. A day later, she called and said it was the right wheel bearing and the control arm. When she quoted the repair price, I wasn't surprised, but money was tight so we passed. I told her I would pick it up the next day. I asked how much for checking it out. She said nothing. I was surprised. Well, we pooled our resources and got the money! I called her and authorized the repairs. Less than a week later, she called and said it was ready. She also stated that the price she quoted for the wheel bearing as too high and adjusted it. Since the cost was a lot lower, they replaced both front wheel bearings! When I got there, I was ready to pay the full quoted price, butas it turned out it was a few dollars less! Since I've gotten my car back, it rides and sounds like a brand new car! I applaud Alton's and highly recommend them for their professionalism and honesty.

Because my transmission had went out . All makes used ideal transmission 2 Rebuild my transmission. Once they got it back From ideal transmission. All makes reinstalled it .Drove it for A-day , had to bring it back to all makes because the transmission had went out .all makes took Trans out sent it back over to ideal transmission for repairs. solenoids went out so they replaced them .All makes reinstalled trans. I went to pick up my truck when it was ready at all makes, not long after. I picked it up transmission went out again. This time it was the torque converter And the pump gone out. Ideal transmission Replaced parts . Sent it back over to all makes ,they reinstalled it. I drove it for a little while about a month and transmission went out again. This time ideal transmission said they wanted the whole truck at their place, to see what is causing it to keep going out. I was out shopping when I got a phone call from Terry letting me know that The torque converter in the transmission was out . that it will cost me $1501.00 . I said oh no I'm not going to pay another penny . I asked her why is it that amount terry said its because they were not the ones who did the R&R labor , which is pulling out and putting in. I said That all makes said that you all wanted the whole truck there. To possibly see what was going on and repair it. When I said I'm not going to pay another penny .. Terry told me that she is going to have her mechanic guy stop working on it and not going to put tran back inside the truck because they had already pulled it out .I said OK that is fine all makes said they have no problem putting it back in. because I paid them the r&r but what was the reason asking for the whole truck if u are going to half as do the work .Ideal transmission ask for the whole truck. terry said they will replace the torque Converter And all makes would just have to put the transmission back .She says she would put transmission in the back of the truck and call All makes to come pick truck. Ideal transmission put the transmission in the front of my truck on the passenger side And put the torque converter behind the passenger seat With fluid still inside the torque converter. I did ask mark what could be causing the transmission to continue going out he said that all makes was putting it in wrong . that they kept busting the pump And vice versa With all makes mechanic shop. Mark said it could be the Fly wheeISo I replaced Fly wheel brand New also the transmission mount Was replaced So when my truck got back to all makes they installed the transmission. I drove it down the street and it went out again and I had enough I said I would not spend Any more money. And I wind up picking up my truck . I brought it to Ed's transmission they cost me $500 to get my truck back . Eds said that 4th and 5th gear is out the pump was good and torque converter was good but As you can see it was just one thing after another I talked to several shops and several people and they told me that ideal should have just tried another transmission but but unfortunately that was never done so here I ended up taking my truck elsewhere And having it repaired.. This is my experience with ideal transmission I could never enjoy my truck because the transmission kept breaking down Because of one thing after another ... If we would have only tried another transmission or you Are used better parts
