Today, many transmissions are replaced
needlessly. The reason is that many facilities are not equipped
with the latest
technology or staff to properly diagnose electronically controlled
transmissions. Another reason for needless replacement revolves
around unethical business owners and sales staff.
What you need to do:
- Find
a facility with transmission Certified Technicians. Members
of ATRA (Automatic Transmission Rebuilders Association) are
continually trained and attend technical seminars to receive
the latest information on transmission technology.
- Locate
a facility in good standing with the Better Business Bureau
(BBB). This is a great indication that you will not get the
run around if things don’t go as you would expect.
Find
a company that is a member in good standing with Tom Martino
at Troubleshooter.com.
All companies are required to meet with Mr. Martino personally
and sign an agreement to abide by a strict code of ethics.
- Visit
the staff at the transmission repair facility and spend as
much time as possible asking questions either in person or
over a lengthy telephone conversation. The more you learn
about the company, staff, and your vehicles problems, the
better off you will be through the repair process.
- Remember,
if your only question is; how much will it cost to fix my
transmission?, you will be influenced by whichever company
offers you the best lie. No person can honestly tell you
how much a repair will cost without extended diagnosis and
the ultimate determination of your vehicles repair needs.
- Find
out about various warranties or guarantees of workmanship
on the repairs. It is often important for repairs to be warranted
as a protection of your investment.
