What customers said about transmission
DO NOT GO HERE.If I could give 0 stars, I would they charge me OVER a $1000 for a solenoid replacement, and all they did was change my transmission fluid. Didnt tell me thats all they were doing but told me that my car was good to go. And then on the paper they gave me their next solution was a new transmission,…
Great prices and very knowledgeable have had no problems and have had many cars fixed and even the blue and red ones rebuilt that were not previously running. Me and my family have been using him since this place was opened. I'm not someone that wants to rig stuff like some folks hoping for a miracle or out here…
Took my car in for some transmission work a few weeks ago. Staff is friendly however, I was working on something else on the car today and noticed they stripped out my axle nut on the driver side….
Great service from day one to day done. Great communication and precise body work done in a timely manner and at a great value. Although I had to go elsewhere for my transmission issues, the work this particular shop did was great.
They are the best shop I have ever dealt with - very thorough clean explained everything great service fair cost extremely knowledgeable and professional. Would recommend to anyone !!
Great service always. I use Northside for all of my maintenance and repairs. They always meet or exceed my expectations.
