When the transmission on my truck started to get a bit loose i decided to catch the problem early and fix it while the repairs would be cheap. I went to A Transmissions and told them the problem.
The manager test drove the car and told me the price would definately be between 800 and 1200 dollars. I left the car with him and went home. The next day he said he had found several things broken and the price was now 3000 dollars. I asked him if it would be cheaper to get a new transmission and he replied that they dont make a transmission for my truck anymore. (2003 Ford Explorer Sport Trac)
I reluctantly said ok and told him to go ahead with the work. (I wish I would have been more car savy then.) When the final bill came in it was over 4000 dollars. There was a transmission removal fee that had been tacked on, a overnight storage fee, and several other fees not previously mentioned. As an 18 year old saving money for college, they drained my bank account.
I heavily suggest avoiding this business due to the untruthful nature of the salesmen.
