My rebuilt transmission by Dr. trans went out after 30,000 miles and I was told there is nothing they can do about it I had to spend another 4000 to rebuild my transmission again at a totally different place. Don’t get sucked into it they didn’t even offer a repair or any help at all only said the warranty covers 24,000 miles and since I was at 30,000 miles there’s nothing they could do. Unbelievable I will never recommend this place to anyone

Master technicians and experts in the transmission field. An impressive service facility, very clean and organized and Chris has pioneered specialized tools for doing precision work. I had to get the transmission rebuilt for my 2013 Ram 2500. Not only did Nancy keep me updated throughout the entire process, Chris took the time to teach me about my transmission and the broken down components which caused the failure. Dr. Trans is an outstanding transmission service shop, and I drove away with confidence and peace of mind... worth every penny, and I recommend this shop for anyone in need of transmission service. Thank you for the peace of mind and for getting my truck back on the road.

Now I know what you did with my lower control arm chassis mounts last summer Dr. Oooga Booga 🔪☠️. I think the helicoil job will cost me more than the “free work” you did on the TTRS. Edit: 2 years later I finally pulled my transmission again to fix the work I argued with Dr Trans over criminally high markups on bearings and seals for my Audi. Found the input shaft bearing collar destroyed. The bearings inside were intact and in good working condition. This means that the same monkey who stripped out my unibody with the subframe bolts (see photo) most likely pressed input shaft bearing (see photo) incorrectly to the case. Shady shop, high prices. Maybe not the experience for everyone, but I guarantee you everyone doesn’t have the same eye as I do.

Chris and his team are amazing. Period. So knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. I brought them a very unique project that most shops scoffed at. They are masters of their craft and took the job without hesitation. It was easy to describe my goals and they executed the plan perfectly. If you need any transmission work bring you vehicle here. Don’t think twice. Do it.
