Be very aware of using the Mr. Transmission franchise for auto repairs. I
learned my leason when I was over $3000 poorer and had to have the dealer
fix my vehicle when they got through with it.

Interesting series of posts. There's posts from customers complaining about
poor workmanship, and franchise holders wanting their money back.

The costs of auto trans "repair" and scare stories like this are why I only
drive manuals, as a manual trans can have all sorts of internal woes and
still function, when an auto is stranded on the freeway.

I did have an automatic once: a 72 Valiant station wagon with a 318 V8 I
paid $250 for and used as the service "truck" for my rally car. We called it
the Vogon 'cause it was big, ugly and a sickly yellow. The thing was
indestructable and carried all the spares with no noticable loss of
performance.

It did amaze me to find the amount of people who have had problems with Mr.
Transmission. It does look like they bilk the franchise owners in addition
to the general public. I actually met the two mechanics who worked on my car
after it was too late to do anything but take the car to the dealer. One of
them had a very hard time even reading English as I had him run a computer
diagnostic of the transmission error codes. The other, the supervisor, was
responsable for replacing a sensor that only functioned for a dash gauge
readout. For some reason he thought that it would fix the problem and he
ended up trashing my dash gauge which Ford repaired for me.
