These guys have helped me out twice. Several years ago with an old BMW I inherited. More recently with a 2002 Mazda MPV which Mazda couldn't diagnose. Mazda wanted over $4000 to put in a rebuilt transmission (and charged me $120 for the "diagnosis.). VALUE couldn't find the problem either, but offered a rebuild for just slightly over half of what Mazda wants.



I know that their work is good, as my old BMW drove for years with no transmission problems again (all of the other parts were another story.)

When i was having transmission problems with my car, I called around all the auto shops for a quote, and one of them happen to be Value Transmissions, worst mistake ever. They said they cant not estimate transmission problems over the phone however, they do have FREE estimates and they said they will even tow my car for free.



Once they got my car, thats when the "bait and switch" happen, they requested $100 for the free estimate due to the fact that it would take them an extra hour to remove some part. When I told them that I was not going to pay them money for a "FREE" estimate and wanted my car back, they said that i have to come back the next day and talk to the rick who can not be reached by phone and happen to leave for the day.



Once they realized that I am not going to fall for their scam, they wanted to charge me storage fees for every day my car was there and would not give me my car back until I paid them $75 for the "free" tow.



I asked to speak with the owner who was being extremely rude and discriminated against me by refusing to take my payment in the form of a Visa credit card even thou on his door was the Visa MasterCard logo.



Total crooks do not bring your vehicle here, if your looking for a honest mechanic
