    January 29 I brought my vehicle in to the shop to check on my transmission. They said I needed it to be rebuilt. They didnt give me an estimate. I picked it up on February 2 and they charged me $5473.05. I had to bring it back several times because it was slipping. February 28 they said I needed my computer replaced. I picked it up the next day and they charged me $600.27. My vehicle is still not fixed and the transmission is still slipping. I do not feel safe driving my vehicle in this condition

    BEWARE! BEWARE! BEWARE! I would give this place a no star if I could, took my vehicle here, in May of 2022. They say I am defaming and defraud but just speaking the truth, they keep deleting my post, on ******* just so i can not alert people and give them the truth.This place is unprofessional, dishonest, and untrustworthy, and unknowledable.I had to call the police to get my vehicle back, did a dispute with my bank, received my money back. After a week of #$&*, from these people, I got my vehicle back, worse than when I brought it to them.Took my vehicle down the road to JUST RITE Transmissions, these guys were very, professional, honest and trustworthy and very knowledgeable. I wish I would of brought my vehicle to these guys in the first place, they have a 4.7 review, that says it all. This aamco only has a 4.3.Do not take my word for it, compare the 2 places, for yourself. Then you will see for yourself. Good luck and godbless.
