AAMCO Transmission Indianapolis Indiana

I had (I say had, because since September 5, 2000, AAMCO Transmission at 4016 N. Keystone Ave., Indianapolis, IN has "had" my van) a 1992 Dodge Caravan.

The biggest mistake of my life was having it taken there. I had it picked up on a flat-bed and transported to the AAMCO since I didn't want it driven until it was fixed (the transmission had just been totally re-built and all it needed was a front pump seal). After almost 2 weeks of putting me off and giving members of my family, myself, and finally, my regular mechanic different stories, they told me that the transmission was totalled and would have to be completely rebuilt at a cost of between $1500. - $2000.!!! I explained that, that was impossible, the transmission had just been re-built and had not been driven even a complete mile since the re-build. The shop manager laughed in my face when I told him I planned to contact the corporate office concerning what I considered to be fraud on their part!!!

To make a long story short, I have retained an attorney. I am also filing a complaint with the State's Attorney General and am planning on contacting the local newspapers and all the television news "Ask Channel... For Help" shows.

All I can say is .... if you have a regular mechanic that you can trust - wait until he has time to take care of your vehicle before you take it to AAMCO. Without a doubt, if you are female and they think they can get away with it - you're in for a major rip-off.
