PEP BOYS They never put in any transmission fluid when doing my tune-up/oil change SALEM Massachusetts
*Author of original report: UPDATE
I went in for an oil change/tune-up they were to top off all fluids but it seems that they never put in any transmission fluid. While driving the care it was slipping gears, so I went back to Pep Boys and they said that I needed to replace the transmission I then went to have it checked out by creedens in salem, who work only on transmissions, and he told me that when he took of the cap to check the level of fluid that it was smoking and there has not been any fluid in there for a long time which means they never checked the level or put in any transmission fluid when they did the Preventative Maintenance Service.

We also had new tires put on at Pep Boys before we knew about the transmission issues. They were put on 11/4/08, while driving the car it started to shake so my daughter pulled over to the side of the road because she did not feel safe.
She then called Pep Boys and explained the problem to them that the car was shaking and making a funny noise, they had it towed back to the store so they could check it out, they did state that if it was a different problem and not the tires, that we would be charged for the tow.
Of course they said there was nothing wrong with the car but when we talked the the tech in back he stated the the tires were not on tight, and he showed us by moving them around. So it was there fault, now they are saying that we owe them for the towing of the car.
