AAMCO Transmissions & Total Car Care

Rebuilt the transmission for my Mercedes S550. Both Chuck and Jack communicated well about the concerns and process. The actual Mechanic that did the rebuild is a master of his craft! Kudos to him! He loves what he does and it shows. The car is running great! Thank you and see you for my annual follow-up. *Side note: don't use Snap as a financing option. You would end up paying 200% of your loan. There are other options available.

I had a really great experience here with Chuck. Took my car in with a check engine light on (thinking it was my transmission from a couple months ago repair from a further AAMCO location) and turned out to be a hose leak, and fixed the same day. Friendly service and quick repair.

Nice People. Wasn't able to afford diagnosed repairs. I had previously paid to have a leak diagnosed. Asked the leak be addressed which wasn't done. Was given a doomsday diagnosis. Bought leak and anti slip product, had someone else install it. Transmission is working fine. I Do Still have to have O ring seal replaced as originally diagnosed. Am going to have it done soon. They didn't charge Me for the doomsday diagnosis on a Positive note. And as I said, they're Nice people.

Do yourself a favor and trust all the other negative reviews. Like many others I had an estimate for a transmission replacement from somewhere else but decided to come here for their “free diagnostic/estimate”. Yeah, not true. Called me to say they couldn’t really tell me the cost to fix it until they checked all the codes it was throwing… but there was no check engine light on when I dropped it off. Either way I agreed to allow them to move forward with the $299 charge for diving deeper into it to determine if it could be rebuilt or if I would need a new transmission. But nope ofcourse that was not enough, called me back and said now they needed to start taking it apart before I could get an estimate but to do that I needed to pay $1,495 upfront before they could start. At that point I to

No one is EVER going to want to discover their vehicle has transmission problems. Everyone had advice as to whether I should fix the car or ditch the car. After a million used cars viewed, I unfortunately realized that the horribly high price tag for replacing a transmission is still better than what it costs to replace an entire car, even if I go for a decent used model. Ugh! Thankfully, I finally got the BEST tip: call AAMCO; and luckily for me, my closest shop (Glen Burnie, MD) has Chuck. With his help, I learned the standard services are valuable enough (towing, the possibility to REBUILD rather than replace, and an entire nation of branches prepared to honor your warranty for up to three years!), but he was also able to match OR DO BETTER than the best price I could find elsewher
