Brad and Bob were super courteous and knowledgeable. They took the time to properly diagnose the problem but also got the work done really fast and for a very fair price. I'd highly recommend them to anyone looking for a relaible mechanic.

Great group of people and the owner went far and beyond what I expected. He took the the to explain what was wrong, what was done, and what needs to be done as preventative measures. 100% satisfied.

Do not come here. Beware they will con you out of your money. Brad (owner) sounds so good but his words don t match his work. Smh after all this he voided my warranty claims I m at fault when took it to another shop they inspected the parts used and it was the cheapest parts you can get in the market when he charged us for top brand name parts.

Brad is amazing we had a failure in our transfer case being new to the area he didn't shy away even though it was closing time he walked me through the whole process showing me exactly what was wrong and why. I really appreciate that there are still mechanics like this. Good people down at Melvindale motor and transmission. Thank you guys for everythingServices: Transmission, Vehicle Inspection

First time ever going here. Took my daughter's car to them to get her transmission looked at. Everyone there was very nice, knowledgeable and helpful. I got her car looked at and serviced in the same day. Even took the time to show me what was done. Excellent service!!! I will definitely be going back there! Thank you for everything

This place is greatHonest, hardworking, problem solving mechanics who get the job done and done right.Brad, Mac and John will treat you like family (the good side you like)And seek the best lowest cost fix for your car and not run up a bill or sell you a bill of goods. If the job can be done you will be on your way With a smile and a prayer from mechanics who care about you.

Bob the owner was polite ( strictly a fa�ade ) when I took my daughters vehicle back ( twice ) for the same issues on the transmission they rebuilt.It took ( 4 ) weeks to get the vehicle back and the only reason I got it back, I wasn t pleasant at all with Bob on the third week and demanded the vehicle back fixed or not and didn t want to hear another BS excuse..He called the following week to inform me it was ready..To my surprise, the interior driver side had grease everywhere from the carpet, door panel, seat and steering wheel..Should you still decide to give him a try after reading this and your experience goes south, it ll be your fault for not adhering to someone s bad experience..Melvindale motor and transmission

Great place they do great work and are very honest and don't try to rip you off! As a female it's hard to trust someone when you know nothing about cars. The owner is more than happy to explain EVERYTHING to you even if you don't understand what he is talking about. I will go back here for the littlest problem to the biggest because I know they are honest and will get it done right.

OK. This may take a bit to write. I needed a transmission either rebuilt or replaced. Told them whatever was cheaper, go ahead and do. They estimated $1800 (just did one exactly like yours last week) to rebuild, or $1650 + labor for a replacement (labor is cheaper for a swap than rebuild for obvious reasons). So, I chose to let them rebuild mine (expecting $1800 since it was $1800 last week for the exact same job). They rebuilt it, took 3 days, and charged me $2100 ($1000 of that was labor). I paid them. Day 2 it's shifting hard from 1st to 2nd, I call, they say bring it in, they'll adjust it. It starts running hotter than normal, while I'm driving it around town, so I ask them to change the Water pump & a coolant sensor (kicked out a false hot coolant the previous week) while they had the transmission out adjusting it. I call at the end of the day, and they tell me the bill is $250. 2.9H labor... To change a water pump (I can do it in an hour alone in a parking lot, and I'm not a mechanic). At this time I tell them, I'll pay them, but they won't get anymore of my business. I ask if I was paying for the transmission adjustment labor, he says they didn't touch the transmission. Then tells me I must have talked to someone that didn't relay all the information (not my problem). I tell him I'm on my way, don't worry about it, I'll get it checked elsewhere. I drive there, 10m drive, and my car is in the garage with the hood up. I pay the $250, and wait 10 more minute for them to finish my car. 20m to fix a hard shift on a transmission, 2.9H to change a water pump. You got my money, have a nice life. No one should EVER use this shop. Unless you're broke down in front of their shop, go elsewhere... Try calling a tow to ANYWHERE else. They're crooks. They even dented my front fender, and left greasy handprints all across the front of my car. Shop owner is calling me in the morning about the dent, but I'm done with them. Shams. Totally unprofessional. Hope they go bankrupt. Please, if you are reading this BEFORE using them, use someone else.*UpdateMy car has been back in to them 3 times for the transmission they rebuilt. They dented my front fender, left Grease all down both front fenders (hand prints). And, my car still won't shift out of overdrive (downshift) once it's warm, into passing gear (to climb a hill on interstate). Honestly don't know what to do. They NEED to fix their work, but I don't trust them anymore. They even tried to blame it on an intake manifold... Took it to another mechanic, whom fixed it for half what he said, and it wasn't the manifold. I just needed a coil. These guys are crooks, and I am stuck letting them NOT fix my car... I want so badly to reduce my rating to a 1 star, but my transmission IS shifting... Just not correctly...

This place is great! Highly recommended! Super helpful and friendly. Was in the area for work so I was 5 hours from home and had to leave that night. They worked on it right away and had it repaired in an hour or so. Very straight forward. Didn't try to rip me off. Gave me detailed information about the issue and how to avoid it in the future. If I lived in the area this would definetely be my go to shop.

They have worked on a few of my vehicles and my family vehicles. They always do great work and have fair prices. I also send a lot of my customers there. I have nothing negative to say about this shop
