I took my 2000 Honda Accord in for transmission repair in August of 2011 after being quoted a ridiculously outrageous price for a new transmission from the Honda dealership. I also needed to have some brake work done and an engine mount replaced. I received estimates from a few other places before taking my car to Aamco. I found both Jeff & Jim to be incredibly courteous and professional. The place is very clean and the waiting area comfortable. They reassured me that they could handle the repair and gave me an estimate that I considered very reasonable. They were able to complete all of the work that I needed for way under the price that Honda had quoted me for the transmission repair alone. The work was completed sooner than anticipated and my car has been running great ever since! I also liked that they offer extended warranties on the work they do if you want additional peace of mind for a costly repair. I will not hesitate to take my car there from now on for all regular service and other repairs.
It is indeed rare to find a business that is honest and has integrity in now a days and when you find somebody or some place of business, not only does it surprise you but also makes you feel good that there still are people who believe in doing business with pride and honesty. In my case, I was told by a local transmission shop and a dealer that my transmission was shot and needed to be rebuilt or would have to be replaced with a new one. Truly and as a last resort I called AAMCO and talked to the owner himself and he offered to look at the car for free. After checking the transmission he called and said that the transmission itself was not shot that it was ok but it just needed a change in electrical surges and tweak to computer. The total cost of $450.00 vs over $2000 from the other transmission shop and my estimate from the dealer I took it to was over $4000. I could not afford that. I was so thrilled and thanked god that I made the call to this AAMCO. Otherwise I don't know what I would have done. So thankful to be pleasantly surprised by the level of service from this AAMCO and I will take my vehicle back for any other services that I may require in the future.
Brought my car here upon recommendation of my best friend. I know nothing about car repair but she said they were honest and did great work and would help me finance if I needed to. They gave me a great price and finished the job in less time than I was expecting. I love driving my Spider and now it is a pleasure to cruise around Sarasota.
I took my car here, the AAMCO location on Clark road in south Sarasota, for a full rear brake job. I knew I needed new rotors and pads. The guys working there looked over my car and did the work as expected, at a reasonable price, without trying to upsell me on any other work.
We brought in an older car, over 200,000 miles, and almost 20 years old. There was quite a bit wrong, but Evan listened to what we were trying to do and made a recommendation to cost us the minimum amount of money so that we could sell the car and feel good that whoever got it was getting a fair deal and a safe vehicle.. Sure enough, we had a 90% plus improvement and how the car ran, and we minimized our expenditure. Thanks to the professional recommendation and the shop, listening to what our needs were. I highly recommend.
Fast, nice and affordable!
I was on the road with a car that I purchased from a private seller. I needed it serviced for my trip back to Las Vegas. First, I visited two Jiffy Lube locations to get the transmission fluid and filter changed; plus the differential oil changed. I was told that one location did not have the differential oil and the other location did not want to discount the price because I showed up with the correct differential fluid and the gasket. Then I was told that Jiffy Lube doesn't take off the differential cover and replace the gasket. Fine. I went to AAMCO TOTAL CAR SERVICE and asked Mr. Evan if he could do the work described above. I got an appointment for 8 AM the next morning and my 2010 Grand Marquise was road ready by 3 PM. I consider the work just general maintenance, so the cost was a little high; however, the work was done RIGHT and done on time. You get what you pay for so see Mr. Evan, the Store Manager, for attentive and friendly service. Thanks, Evan. :D Michael at The Diamond Grader Lab in Las Vegas, NV.
AAMCO has serviced my vehicle several times and the service is always courteous and reasonably priced. We will continue to be a repeat customer.
