We took our Honda CRV to their shop because the car would hesitate before shifting and then clunk when it finally did. AAMCO said we needed to rebuild it so they did. The car still had the same issue when they returned it. Two weeks later the whole transmission when out and stranded us. They rebuilt it again and the same hesitation problem was there. We kept taking it back and they would give us a runaround and not repair it.

The transmission went out again and we took it to another shop and had the transmission replaced with a used one. The new shop said the overdrive switch caused the hesitation and replaced it. The transmission probably never needed rebuilding. We tried to sue in small claims court but AAMCO got their attorneys to move it to a district court. We had to hire a lawyer and go to hearing and to court.

We lost since we signed AAMCO's agreement each time agreeing to their service terms. We ended up paying AAMCO for ruining our transmission and attorney fees. And then paid another shop to replace the transmission that AAMCO worked on twice. I would never recommend anyone go to AAMCO since they have inexperienced mechanics and don't stand behind their work.

common scam for aamco

AUTHOR: Mike - LAKESIDE (U.S.A.)

if you happen to notice aamco franchises, they put up a banner saying under new managment on a regular basis ( when they have enough customers pissed off)

our local aamco ( i drive past it several times a week) had put the "under new managment" banner up 3 times in the past 7 years. ( they must keep is on hand, as its getting kind of warn out around the edges)

once they get your car into their shop your going to be subject to all the scams they can come up with.

beware of their free transmission check up or "special" flush and fill, its just to get your car in their shop and find lots of bogus problems

Not Always True

AUTHOR: Dragon - Yuma (U.S.A.)

I work for an AAMCO Transmissions now yes i am sure there are some AAMCO's that should not be in business for various reasons. I have been running the center i am at for 3 years now. I will admit i have been wrong but if i am i try and rectify the problem. I have people that have been doing business with me for years thats because i treat them right. I am sorry that the AAMCO you went to did not treat you fairly and i know it would be hard to go to an AAMCO again but try and reliaze not all AAMCO'S are the same. Please try another AAMCO even a different location maybe. But not all are bad. Thank You
