I needed an emergency transmission service after Walmart botched my oil change by dumping the wrong fluid. Al and ABC were very accommodating and made time to diagnose and repair my vehicle the same day I was able to bring it in. Friendly, professional and good people at ABC!

Recently dropped off my 2016 chevy Silverado for transmission everyone knows the issue with the 6l80e. Called up the shop and they knew exactly what i was talking about, they are doing the thermostat bypass to keep the tranny cooler and changing the fluid to the Mobil 1. Keeping me away from the GM Parts counter. Great pricing and quality work. Honest transmission shop that gets his business off the quality work and word of mouth and not ripping people off Save your 6L80E transmissions and go here

I stopped in for an estimate and the owner was very upfront with me about a transmission job. Very knowledgeable about how too do and the savings he could find doing the job. 👍

I came here needing a mechanic I can trust and this shop has been that and more! There’s been times I needed a hand with something and just drove in and Al came right out and helped me. I call and need something by a certain time and they get me right in. Great mechanics! Fast friendly and gets the job done well! Sorry to hear about the loss of Lucy dog. She will be missed! Thank you for being a shop I can count on. In this day and age it’s incredibly hard to come by and I appreciate it so!

Al and the crew installed a new clutch in my Jeep wrangler, they got it in and out super fast and at a very reasonable price. Couldn't be happier with the service!! Thanks!

Great people. Fixed my transmission couple months ago, haven't had any problems with it since. Owner told me anytime I had any concerns to bring it in and I had something that I thought was related and the owner immediately stopped what he was doing and it turned out to be completely unrelated and minor. Good honest mechanics are tough to find and these people stand behind their work...

The reviews are true about this place. We needed a second opinion after the dealer told us the transmission was shot and needed to be replaced to the tune of $5k. ABC did a thorough review of the vehicle and found the root cause was that the spark plugs and ignition coils needed to be replaced. They explained everything clearly and the car has been running great ever since. They were also very helpful in explaining what was likely happening to cause the transmission to behave in the way that it did and how that tied back to the spark plug issue.

I needed a transmission oil pan replacement and was able to describe the situation over the phone instead of having to travel up from CP. Paul did an excellent job at gathering all the information, agreed to do the work, and communicated effectively. They ordered the part, called me when it was in, and gave me a time to show up so they could do the work while I waited. I came in, they got my truck on the lift, did the work, no surprises, test drove it, and I was out in about an hour. The owner, Al, was very friendly and pleasant to spend time with while I waited. It was well worth the drive. ABC is now programmed into my phone.

Al is my new old friend. He diagnosed a problem while walking to look at the car. He is a wealth of information regarding cars in general. He pulled no punches and took care of the of the issue at hand quickly and without breaking the bank. Recently took our car in for routine transmission maintenance per the manufacturer. I did not realized how rough it had been shifting until I got it back from ABC! Super smooth shifting and great power! Thanks to Al and the gang.

I had an appointment set up because I assumed it was my transmission. The owner test drove my vehicle and placed it on the computer. He said it appeared to be something electronic in the motor sending the signal to the transmission and not the transmission itself. He was very open and suggested I bring it to a dodge dealership to have them further diagnose. He as well said he would keep my appointment for my later date just in case I needed it and asked me to call him if I didn t. He did not charge for the diagnostic. This is how you establish relationships. I highly recommend using ABC.

Honest work, honest prices. The transmission on my pickup was bucking and shuddering; they were aware of this issue and the manufacturers recommendation to change the factory fluid (Dextron) to Mobile1. Thank you ABC for solving a worrisome problem at a very reasonable price.

Excellent service station. Al is awesome. I trust them 100%. If he says you need it, you do. As a woman, I always feel informed and confident in their service. They explain everything you want to know. I highly recommend Al and his team. My household has been happily patronizing ABC for over 7 years (we have 5 vehicles including an F350 work truck). I send all my friends and family to Al and his team. They are the best!

Al and the guys at ABC are awesome! Extremely honest and extremely helpful!! I have been using them for all my repairs for years, my entire family uses them! I have had trans repairs, motor work and drive train work done on all of my work vehicles! They have even stayed late after hours to make sure my truck was ready for work the next morning! We refuse to use anyone else and risk being taken advantage of or getting subpar work! ABC has the highest quality workmanship, top tier customer service and they are as honest as the day is long! Only reason I am rating 5 stars is because 10 isn t an option! Go to ABC!

I keep my cars and trucks past 300,000 miles, so having a place like ABC is absolutely necessary. Im picky and I like my cars to be 100% repaired right and reliable even if they are old. Al and his guys can fix just about anything, and theyll tell you when its not worth it anymore. The quality of work is better than dealerships Ive been to and the cost is lower. This operation is family run, so its no surprise that they treat you like family. First thing you should know is that they are transmission experts, but they do all types of repairs! Ive had ABC rebuild transmissions in 3 different cars, and Im really happy with the work! The transmission Al built for my Taurus and Civic have lasted longer than the original. I have no doubt the transmission I just had done in my Crown Vic will do the same. When I thought the transmission in my F250 was shot, he was able to service it and its still working great. He could have sold me a new transmission that day, but he was honest and fair. Al and his guys have fixed everything on my cars and trucks, from check engine light issues to electrical problems and wheel bearings and chassis parts. I use them for fluid changes and other maintenance items. Al & Debbie are there every day, and they know who you are and what you drive. Its so nice to be able to have a face to face conversation about what my truck or car needs and have all the options. Recently, Al recommended I buy used parts for a really old truck I had, and it saved me a bundle of money. He got them from a salvage yard in Texas, and they were rust free fixed the issue with the truck like it was new. Thats the type of out of the box thinking that sets this shop apart from the others. I cant recommend ABC Transmission enough.

*****Review Update: Your response to my review is very telling. You have clearly done this to other customers because you have me confused with another party you just admitted doing this to!! I guess I was not the only customer who complained about suspicious behavior You said my truck had the wrong everything & you didn t want to fix it? I DON T EVEN OWN A TRUCK!! I have a completely different vehicle, so obviously I wasn t the only person you did this to. I have a bad feeling the reason you rushed me out is because you did something to my car that made it worse & when I can prove it, I will let you know. My original post: Very odd experience, wanted to get my Transmission fixed but they decided my car wasnt worth it because other things in my car needed to be fixed. Things that had NOTHING to do with the Transmission. Who are they to decide if i should get my car fixed or not? This car had sentimental value to me. Very weird that they decided for me that i shouldnt do it. Makes me wonder what they did to my car while it was there, the fact they wanted it out of the shop so fast. Very weird people

We had transmission problems while traveling to the Adirondacks from St. Louis, Mo. We had the most fortunate chance of finding Al on the Internet. Al was a straight-shooter and let us know the problem and he fought to get the price of the part we needed at a much better price that what he was initially quoted. He and his guys provided us with super fast and wonderful service! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!

We are from out of state. We were pulling our travel trailer on I 87 when we noticed smoke coming from our 2004 Silverado. We had an emergency and had to be towed. We called ABC transmissions. Despite a very busy schedule, Al told us to have it towed to him. He stayed late to check our truck. He let us park our travel trailer in his lot. The next morning, his staff worked on the problem immediately. He showed us what the problem was. Now we are able to get back on our way and enjoy our vacation. We are extremely satisfied. ABC transmissions is excellent in every way.

While vacationing in Lake George my reverse blew. My truck was towed to ABC transmission where Al gave it a road test and confirmed what my mechanic back home --200 miles away-- had told me. Al did not charge me for his service to look my truck over and he confirmed I would be safe to drive home. He is an honest, trustworthy, and knowledgeable man. He took time out of his busy schedule to fit me in last minute and made sure my safety came first. Fabulous customer service! Thank you!

As others have noted, Al and his team are not here to take advantage of you. I brought a vehicle in convinced it needed a new transmission, Al showed me it didnt. Although they have not been able to nail down my intermittent electrical issue, they have also had a very practical approach, keeping my schedule and budget in mind. I have no reservations going back to ABC transmissions. If only Al did home improvement too.. :-)
