Aamco Transmission
Consumer Report

Here is my tragic story of our Aamco experience...

Honda Odyssey 2003 was purchased used on 10/31/06.

Jan 22 Van began to slip gears. Had it towed to Aamco for transmission repair due to free towing. Charged $3062.06 to rebuild transmission.

April 10 Van again began to slip gears. Took back to Aamco and needed another rebuilt transmission and 3 mos out of warranty. Charged us $1587.55.

June 22 Van is packed with the entire family going to our vacation destination in SC in the middle of a down pour, the transmission again begins to slip. Called the local Aamco and they picked up the van. Same story, needed another rebuilt transmission in the amount of $2406.59.

After spending our vacation week with phone calls to Aamco to no avail, we had to borrow money from relatives in order to get our family back home.

July 20 Van is again packed with entire family to travel to NC vacation. 30 minutes outside of our hometown, Louisville, Ky it happened AGAIN! 13 months after last repair. Had to call a relative to pick is up off the side of the highway to return home. Unsure what to do at this point... We had the Van towed to our nearest Aamco dealer. We fortunately were able to borrow a car from a family member and continue with our vacation trying not to despair.

The new Aamco dealer seems to think that if we simply add an external cooler to keep the transmission fluid from over heating we should be fine. The new tab is $2835.60.

We are currently on hold trying to get some assistance from Aamco Customer Relations. They are very, very hard to speak to. Just leave a message and wait to see if anyone calls you back. We are also thinking of small claims at this point. This would make it $9891.80 in four years for FOUR transmissions.

There is a reason that these transmissions are not lasting. There is a reason why they continue to fail right beyond the warranty. This is not right, this is not fair, this is not safe and Aamco should back their products and stop ignoring this issue.
