Aamco Transmissions

went in for repair and service and it was a disaster , they are crooked & incompetent,
I asked for repair to a tranny mount , a leak in drive shaft seal , and to put in spark plugs that I had with me plus to clear the engine light that I fixed the problem for already........................................

1. the tranny mount was re bolted on but he used washers as spacers to compensate for the main exhaust mount that he took out and returned in the back of my truck (exhaust mount now needs repair by redoing the whole job he did over ) ........................................................................

2. there is a leak in the drive shaft seal still , he instead drained and refilled the tranny and resealed the tranny pan , when he was done he told me he put a used gasket in there to save me money , its now leaking all over my newly sealed driveway and a mess on another one I had to clean up (now needs a new gasket and tranny flush redone) ........................................................................

3. plugs are in and seem ok , but the engine cover is missing and I have to get a new one ..........

4. he cleared the engine light but said he checked it first and that it was a 02 sensor and would not pass my next e test , I refused as this was just checked and I fixed it as it was a bad gas cap , I later took it for e test and it passed with flying colours ( proof he tried to rip me off )....................

I am currently awaiting an appointment with ford to re do the job and fix the problems they created & to see if there is any damage to tranny ......

It seems like we all have basically the same review is some form or another.
Since Jordan took over about 3 years ago I have to say he is as professional and honest as there is. I am 50 years old and drive about 70,000 km per year so I have taken my vehicles to many garages over the years. The staff and Moe are outstanding. They definately rely on customer service as their #1 selling point and matched by their quality work.
670,000km on my van and they keep it going strong.

I have been taking my maxima there for two years I always get a honest opinion and the service is very reliable.

I recently had my brakes done at AAMCO and I am so happy i chose them. I was treated with respect, offered a coffee while i waited, and the mananger was even willing to take me home so I didn't have to wait around. Before i choose AAMCO i called 3 different shops and AAMCO had the best price by far. I would strongly recommend these guys, Jordan is the manager and he was great. If you need auto work deal with Jordan at AAMCO.

Jordon and Moe are both very professional and courteous.
I recommend them as I find there service exceptional and the fact they will accommodate you with pick service if it is required is greatly appreciated.

Aamco Transmissions on Fairway was far the best service I have seen. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Great indoor waiting area, with coffee and magazines. I called many car places and Aamco beat every price. I would greatly recommend checking them out, I had a great experience and will be a repeat costumer.

I would like to compliment Aamco Transmissions & Total Car Care on making my visit so positive! I took my car in for service - the wait time was as promised with coffee, treats & magazines. I liked that I could look into the garage area through the waiting room and actually see what was being done to my car. The manager Jordan was very helpful & courteous. Pricing was reasonable and I will be back because of this positive experience!

The new management team at AAMCO led by Jordan is unmatchable. Definitely recommend.

Thanks team!

I am a 28 year old female who has no idea about cars. I was recommended to AAMCO by a friend and sure enough they explained things in great detail with me.

Great service, great location and I recommend to anyone with doubts.

Please do yourself a favour and do not step foot in this establishment.

I had an experence with this repair shop that was less then decent. I had some work done by them and they would not honor the warranty on the transmission. Also I also felt that the customer service guy was really pushy and was very unclear about what part of my transmission was broken. He said I had to sign to an rip and take apart estimate for a cost of $350. Which I agreed to, then after he said he could not put my transmission back together without fixing it completely since it would go aganst his duty to protect his customers safty. So I said fine and went ahead with the repair, only to have it checked out at another transmission shop after it broke less then a week later and was told that nothing was replaced or rebuilt in the transmission, all that was done was it was put back together with new oil. It was a transmission oil return line that was the issue, not the transmission at all. I paid over $2400 for the repair from aamco and they refused to stand by the work saying that they fixed the transmission and since it was the oil line for the transmission it is not thir problem. I will never take my car there. Also the review above almost looks like a employee of the shop trying to fix the rating since it touches on all of the other persons problems that they stated.

Please dont judge the new owners from my reviews and remarks about the old owners. Rowan the owner and Brian the manager are the new owners. My remarks were about Mikiea Bydeweg and her staff who have since all left AAMCO. My remarks should not effect AAMCO Kitchener as part of your choices of transmission shops.
