How to Pick the Right Transmission Shop Near You

AAMCO Utah • Nov 27, 2023

The right mechanic for your next transmission repair makes all the difference. No matter what transmission problem you’re dealing with, you want to be sure your vehicle is in good hands. One issue can easily snowball into more serious transmission repairs when ignored or missed, so make sure you bring your car to a mechanic whom you can trust with accurate diagnostics and repairs. There’s no one you can trust more than the mechanics at your local AAMCO Utah transmission shop – visit your local AAMCO and see why we stand out from the rest.

Look for the Right Mechanics

When it comes to transmission repair – or any auto repair for that matter – finding the right mechanic is key. Diagnostic and repair tools are certainly helpful, but most importantly you need a mechanic equipped with the knowledge and skills to interpret the results from diagnostic work and translate that into effective repairs. There are a few key things to look for when searching for a new transmission mechanic.

Only Trust an ASE Certified Mechanic

Any professional mechanic in America should be ASE certified. Ensure any mechanic you trust with your vehicle has at least this basic certification and maintains regular, ongoing training to stay current with new automotive technology. Transmissions are constantly evolving and improving, so it’s important to have a mechanic who’s up-to-date with knowledge, tools, and training.

At AAMCO, not only are our mechanics all ASE certified, but they’re also supported with ongoing training. Your car will always be well taken care of at AAMCO with the most up-to-date information, technology, and tools.

Choose a Transmission Mechanic with Extensive Experience

Everyone has to learn sometimes, even with transmission repairs. But especially with transmission repairs, it’s important to have mechanics working on your vehicle who have first-hand experience working on vehicles like yours. Different vehicles, transmissions, and other essential systems have different quirks and ways to know what repairs are necessary. The best way to gain this type of understanding is by getting lots of hands-on experience with transmission repairs.

At AAMCO, we’ve been leaders in transmission repair for years and understand the importance of mechanics who have plenty of experience diagnosing and carrying out transmission repairs. You’ll never have to worry when you leave your vehicle with us.

Find a Transmission Repair Shop that Cares

Repair shops aren’t always known for their customer service. Especially with more expensive and serious transmission, finding a transmission shop that values customer care can make a world of difference. Make a stressful repair less of a burden by looking for an auto shop with complimentary services, financing options, and warranties on parts and labor.

Complimentary Services Show the Value of Customer Care

While you can’t always count on complimentary services to save the day, they can give an idea of how well a transmission shop treats its customers. Whether it’s complimentary inspections, loaner cars, a comfy waiting room, or help to get your car to the shop, ask about included services before you choose your next mechanic.

At AAMCO, we offer a complimentary inspection with every service. And if you find yourself stranded by a serious transmission problem, simply call your nearest AAMCO and we’ll set up a complimentary tow service to ensure you and your vehicle arrive safely.

Financing Options Help Ease the Financial Burden of Transmission Repairs

Most transmission repairs aren’t cheap. Don’t let the expense keep you from taking care of a necessary repair – look for a mechanic who offers options for financing larger repair fees. This shows an understanding of the stress put on car owners whenever there’s a necessary repair, as well as simply being a great option to spread out payments.

At AAMCO, each of our locations offers financing for qualifying customers to spread out payments for larger auto repairs over a period of time. Call your local AAMCO to find out more about their specific financing options.

Nationwide Warranties Add a Vote of Confidence in Your Transmission’s Mechanics

When it comes down to it, warranties on parts and services show confidence in the mechanics and parts used at any auto shop. Not only that, but it puts your mind at ease after a major repair service, knowing that if anything goes wrong as a result of that service, you’re covered and won’t be stuck with another large auto repair bill.

When you drive away from a transmission repair service at your local AAMCO, you’ll have our nationwide warranty. This means even if you’re heading out on a long road trip, all you have to do is find the nearest AAMCO and you’ll be covered.
