AAMCO Transmissions CentersReviews of aamco.com

I came here to replace my Ford's transmission that cost me nearly 8K. It ran fine for less than 60 days until it didn't. We came back to get it fixed under the "warranty" they promised. Warranty being if the mileage drove after being fixed was less than 12000 miles, they'd fix it without cost. That was not the case. They asked for another 3K to fix the transmission per this "warranty" which was not even outlined originally. They even threatened to keep MY car that is under my name, insurance, title and wouldn't give me my key unless I signed a paper agreeing to pay this 3k. The manager was rude, unprofessional, disrespectful, and directed microaggressions towards me and my husband as people of color. They want your money. They are "binding" by mouth only and argued that paper documentation isn't necessary even when people are paying thousands to get their vehicles fixed. The manager boasts that he has 4.6 ratings on Google but on other sites, this place doesn't even measure up. I do not recommend this service at all. There is better people and services out there.

I'll try to make this brief the date was August 13th. Took a Jeep to figure out where I was losing transmission fluid. Transmission work fine. I had one estimate for a 1900 and some dollars later on it was determined 600 of that was for a oil pan gasket replacement which I did not request another 80 was for a brake line relocation which I did not request. Just wanted to figure out the leak situation and get that fixed well almost 5 days later was told jeep was fixed. That was on a Friday parked it in the garage Saturday morning transmission fluid all over the floor. They're not open on weekends drove another vehicle down there Monday wanted to refund took the cardboard that was underneath the jeep with pictures and showed them the problem the owner chad proceeded to tell me that was b******* also threw around a few f-bombs. Needless to say the discussion never went my way. I asked him how he determined that the jeep was fixed. Asked if they started it to warm up the transmission or even drive it around the parking lot. Crickets no answer just more cussing. Told me the vehicle was too dangerous to drive. So that's why they never checked it. I guess because I didn't want to pay for all the other repairs that I didn't ask for that they didn't check it I don't know. I said could you just put it on the lift and raise a little bit and start the engine to get the fluid moving crickets again followed by more cussing bottom line. This is the last place you'd want to take a vehicle

My 2020 Malibu is in their shop because it had a delay before going into drive, and I told them Chevy dealer would replace it for about 5500 and Mark convinced me that since I drove the car in it shouldn't be worse case scenario. They would charge 1295. To disassemble and reinstall plus the parts so I said go. Once apart they said it would be 6700 To install remanufactured or 5500 for used. GM said the Trans was 2877.+tx and aamco said to install it would be 2374. Instead of the 1295. Bringing the cost to me up to 5,748, more than GM originally quoted me. I'm now stuck using Aamco because of the additional 1295. it would Cost to reinstall the Trans and get the car to JM Chevrolet in Lufkin, which offered to take 500 off If I bring it to him because of how this Aamco on Rayford road is treating a retired senior citizen on a fixed income

AAMCO Auto Gaithersburg (Emarald Auto) if you value your time and money don't waste your time horrible service.. I have a complaint with County about them. One of my issues is they charged an additional $500.fee. for labor that originally said it was a shop fee to install outside parts. Then after I said I didn't want them to do the work they said it's for Labor never said anything about this misc fee. I had to pay an additional $1000 to get my car back and they didn't repair the car. Ridiculous is this the AAMCO way 😳.

My local AAMCO has always been great to me and my cars. Definitely saved me money. Over the years I've been to at least half a dozen locations, and never gotten gouged, so something about their business model is female-client friendly in a way a lot of auto shops aren't, so I appreciate that.

Unethical Practices and Lack of Communication – Avoid AAMCO I recently had a deeply disappointing experience with AAMCO, Irondale, Alabama, and would not recommend their services to anyone. Here is a summary of my ordeal: I received an initial quote of $2,597.95 for vehicle repairs and paid $1,300.00 on April 3, 2024. The vehicle was promised to be ready by April 8, 2024. However, after being informed of delays due to staffing issues, my husband and I visited the AAMCO shop, only to find out that my vehicle had been transferred to a Ford dealer without any prior notification. The sales representative confirmed the transfer and assured us that AAMCO was handling the situation. We were not informed about any additional costs involved with this transfer. On May 1, 2024, AAMCO called to inform me that my vehicle was ready for pickup, with a new total cost of $4,750.02. After deducting the $1,300 already paid, I was left with a balance of $3,450.00. When I questioned the unauthorized additional work, the sales representative admitted to making the decision without my consent and insisted that he had the right to proceed without notifying me. He further stated that the vehicle would not be released until the balance was paid in full. This situation caused significant financial strain and highlighted the unethical practices of this AAMCO location. I strongly advise against using AAMCO for any vehicle repairs. They do not communicate additional charges to clients, and the owner believes he has the right to conduct work without the customer's knowledge or approval. Save yourself the hassle and choose a more reputable service provider.

On 4-29-24 i took my Mercedes to the AAMCO TRANS. at 3620 Inwood Rd. Dallas Tx. and i was expecting a financial NIGHTMARE. To me it seemed my first gear was slow to engage. They checked it out, drove it around found nothing wrong. I asked them to keep it overnight to do a early morning cold drive, they did and found nothing wrong. I could not believe they were HONEST enough to tell me they could not find anything wrong. Most shops would have LIED and taken advantage of the situation. I was so impressed i had my transmission serviced anyway. These guys have my business i am sold.

I went to aamco in Knoxville Tn 104 stekoia lane. Made an appointment on tuesday They said they do a vehicle courtesy check no cost Transmission was slipping. They said the only way we can tell whats wrong is removing the pan and check contents $825 dollars to do this. Well give you credit when we rebuild the transmission. They said the transmission going to have to be repaired. I asked for a quote. we cant till we determine what parts need replacing. Give me a quote on intalling a rebuilt trans. we cant till we find out what the transmission cost. They had my transmission removed torn apart. Told me it was going to be $6,849 dollars to rebuild in house. I we put a rebuilt transmission in it will be $11,000 dollars. I had to have my truck to do my job so I told them to rebuild it. My bad. I went to pay and pickup my truck. Started writing a check. We cant take a check. ok Pulled out my debit card we cant take a debit card. I said why. Because we think you will stop payment if we except that payment. We only take cash. They locked my truck in their warehouse until I went and got cash. 6 thousand 8 hundred 49 dollars cash. Paid them didn't get home 3 miles away it started slipping again. Went back they drove it said its not slipping. Pulled it in their garage worked on it 45 minutes Told me it was a quart low on fluid. The Transmision is still not right They say there is nothing wrong with it. Stay away from this company.
