AAMCO Auto Transmission Repair
AAMCO Transmission ripoff misleading unreliable

I had my 1995 FORD Explorer transmission rebuilt by AAMCO in sacramento, CA about two years and my car suddenly died (car idling normal but all the gears slipped) last week. I took my car back to the original AAMCO who did the the first rebuilt transmission ($2500) and challenged them on their workmanship on a short-lived rebuilt transmission. I was hoping to get about 4 years or 40,000 more miles out of my car before giving it up. They did the $79 "external diagnostic work", but they had to charge me a $98 "starter diagnostic fee" because my car would not start up. Then they recommended an $700 "internal diagnostic work" on the transmission so that they can find the "problem". If they found the problem with the transmission, it would have costed me $700 $2500! If there was nothing wrong in the transmission, I would have to pay $700 more "diagnostic fees". So I became frustrated with their rationale and ideas. I pulled my Explorer out of their shop ending up paying the $98 fee (I had a coupon for "free external diagnostic check) And added to my frustration I realized that my rear license plate with new registration stickers have be stolen. AAMCO is not holding up to their high standards and expectations for a rebuilt transmission that only lived for two years or under 20,000 miles.
