Allstate Transmission really explains all their findings using easy-to-understand terms, which is why we love dealing with them for vehicle transmission problems. Aside from knowing the exact issues, you’ll understand the cost breakdown even more.

This repair center has been open since the late 1980s, and we appreciate that they can diagnose both older and newer car models. You can even bring vehicles that heavily rely on computerized transmissions, and they can diagnose them accurately.

We love that this repair center offers free towing, so no need to panic if your car breaks down somewhere else.

However, it’s worth noting that they don’t usually send updates unless you ask for them. To avoid disappointment, we suggest informing their staff that receiving frequent updates is part of your requirement from the outset.

Keep in mind that they’re not the fastest repair center you can go to, as they really take their time to do a detailed inspection. 

Additionally, for quick repairs, don’t expect this repair center to have a waiting lounge for you. 

Provides a cost breakdown

“Super knowledgeable and trustworthy! Very helpful, they explain what they find in their testing. And they break down the cost fee so you understand what it is you’re paying for and what’s wrong with your vehicle. I also really like that you’re able to continue maintenance service on your transmission afterwards with them. I will definitely be returning to them for that! The only two negative things that I would have to say is that one they didn’t reach out to me for any updates. I did have to call two times to get an estimate of when my car would be ready. And second, they don’t have a waiting area/waiting room so the day you take your car to get it looked at, you’re kinda out of luck if you don’t have an available ride or anyone to pick you up because you can’t wait there and there’s really nothing close by either that you can to go and kill time at.”

Keeps clients in the loop

“I’m extremely satisfied with Allstate Transmission. I had a problem with a fresh rebuild from another shop that they diagnosed quickly and then when the decision was made to have it rebuilt again they we super fast. They went above and beyond. Nicole kept me informed throughout the entire process and the bronco runs and shifts perfectly now. I would highly recommend.”

If you’re quite unsure about your transmission issues, you’ll love that they offer free diagnostic examinations. In fact, we normally bring our car here for a second opinion, which is perfect if you really want to ensure that the initial diagnosis is accurate.

We love that they usually beat the price of their counterparts. And it’s a significant discount, so you can really save much if you’re having your transmission repaired by these guys.

Here, they take time in inspecting your vehicle, so if you need to be somewhere else, they can just request you to leave your car. Don’t worry, you can expect them to call within the day to discuss the issues, including the costs.

And since you need to leave your car for more comprehensive inspection and transmission repair, we love that they thoughtfully consider offering a free shuttle service.

Moreover, if your car suddenly stops working, they can tow it wherever you are—free of charge.

Meanwhile, we also love that they discuss the repair timeframe. Even better, they make sure to finish the repairs on time.

Always treat their clients with respect

“I am always treated with respect here. They believe me when I tell them what is going on with my car. A rare thing when you are a woman going to an automotive repair shop.

They work quickly and always keep me up to date on what is going on.”

– Tamara Hock, Google Review

Very efficient

“They are amazing! Pulled out my bad transmission which needed too many parts to rebuild, so I opted for used transmission (car too old for new one). From time of transmission delivery they had it installed within a day! Their pricing was great, they are quick, efficient and friendly. I will be taking my car for other work I need done as well. I am one happy camper!!! THANK YOU Advanced Transmissions for the amazing job!”

When our car started jerking every time we shifted gears, we automatically figured that it was a transmission problem. And since we know that the Transmission Factory has been around since the 1970s, we didn’t think twice about reaching out to them.

We called them first to inform them about the issue, and we appreciated how they took the time to explain what was happening with our car. You can also expect them to gauge if it’s time to have a more comprehensive diagnosis, or if you can wait it out.

When we brought our car, one of the mechanics immediately checked the transmission. They also checked if there were other issues we might’ve missed before conducting a thorough diagnosis.

What we liked most about this repair center is that they offer various repair options to their clients after conducting a thorough vehicle inspection. It actually gave us the freedom to decide which repair route to go to, which is perfect if budget and timeline are very important.

The best part is that they get the job done in a timely manner.

Doesn’t overcharge clients

“Robbie and the techs at this shop are awesome. I didn’t tell them I was a service manager at a well known auto repair shop previously. I knew what to look out for and I can honestly say they were very honest with me, they fixed the issue the first try and didn’t over charge me. I had an F250 V10 that needed a tranny rebuild kit last month . I’m happy I found this shop and I’m coming back with another car this week.”

Explains the repair process in detail

“I would definitely suggest going to see Ray and his crew at the transmission factory. They are not out to rip you off, they explain in detail what they are going to do to your transmission and get the job done in a very timely manner. If anyone is looking for a great transmission shop I will definitely be referring them to Transmission Factory. Thank you for the outstanding job guys!”

For those of you who are looking for a transmission repair center that can work on your trucks too, then we highly suggest going to Ken’s Transmission.

They’ve been in the business for thirty years, and we’ve even heard happy clients raving about their fixed transmission that lasted them more than a decade.

What we love about this transmission repair center is that they accommodate same-day diagnosis as long as you bring it in before noon. They can even start the repairs on the same day if there are no other cars lined up for any service.

However, this repair shop isn’t open on weekends. They also have limited business hours on weekdays, so they’re not really a good option for emergency repair needs, especially at night.

Nonetheless, you can still expect their staff and even the repairmen to warmly welcome you. They even explain the issues using simpler terms, ensuring you understand exactly what’s happening on your vehicle.

We also appreciate that we are never pressured into signing up for unnecessary repairs, a common practice at other transmission centers that often results in upselling their services.

And more importantly, they can finish minor repairs in less than two days. 

Quick turnaround time

“These guys are the absolute best in the transmission business. Very affordable pricing and great turnaround time. Thank you to Phil (owner) who took great care of me.”

Good warranty coverage

“Great service, pricing, warranty & fast turnaround! It’s been 5,000 miles since getting a tranny and the van runs better than new. If you have a Ford Transit bookmark this page cuz sooner or later you’re going to need Phil & the crew at Ken’s Transmission.:

Pro-Tech Transmissions is the best repair center to go to if you’re after good warranty coverage. Here, their warranty coverage extends up to three years or 36,000 miles, which is one of the best ones we’ve found around the city.

They’re also known for their six- to twelve-month transmission repair financing plans if your bill is at least $199, perfect for those who need to stick to a budget. We also love that they stick with their original costs.

Another thing that we love about this repair center is that it can accommodate your urgent repair needs. However, don’t expect the team to finish the repair in just a day.

This place is also ideal for those who aren’t knowledgeable about transmissions. They will provide you with the basic knowledge about how transmissions work and why a repair is necessary, so you’re well-informed.

It’s also great that they responded quickly to our calls and texts. They even sent us photos and videos so we’re well aware of what’s going on.

Meanwhile, you don’t need to worry about your transportation while your car transmission’s being repaired.

Aside from having loaner cars, they can also arrange a pick-up and drop-off option for you.

Loaner cars are available

“I took my car in to have the engine looked at because it was running rugged. Three cylinders were firing. The fourth was not. He and his friend looked at the engine. Told me my transmission was fine that I needed a new ignition coil on cylinder three I replaced the part And the car now runs like a dream. The part was not very expensive and he saved us a lot of work. He even had a replacement car with a new transmission and fairly reasonable mileage that he would offer to sell if I didn’t get my car working he’s the best. Thank you for your trust and your help. I would recommend you in a heartbeat. Thank you!”

Quick but accurate diagnosis

“I recently had my car transmission repaired at Pro-Tech Transmissions. I was completely impressed with their professionalism and customer service From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm and friendly welcome by staff. The technicians at Pro-Tech Transmissions are highly skilled and knowledgeable, clearly explaining the potential issues and providing a detailed estimate upfront. The mechanics diagnosed the problem quickly and accurately, and the repair was completed efficient, exceeding my expectations. They kept me informed throughout the process, ensuring I understood every step and were transparent about cost. Most importantly my car is now running perfectly, with a smooth and responsive transmission. I feel confident that the quality of work done will last. I highly recommend Pro-Tech Transmission to anyone in need of transmission repairs, they are trustworthy and reliable shop with exceptional customer service.
