Highly recommend . I have been going to Sal s for years. I had my car towed there and the problem was a pump. This pump was replaced by Sal s in September so it was still under warranty. Sal s is honest and the staff is amazing.

What a well run business! I am from upstate and had customer stranded in NYS with vehicle issue. Sal and family walked me through the process handled my customers concerns and made billing super easy with text invoice payment. Excellent communication, quick service, and fair pricing.Thank you SalJason Gattari

Let me explain my experiences for my ford focus.I paid 2 times already for the transmission problems and I have to pay again and again for the future transmission problems Since you have transmission mechanic shop, it is very natural to not expect and pay any more problems from customers side.

Absolute worst mechanic/transmission shop you can go to. I do not know how there is one hood review or this place can even be in buisness.I brought my truck in with a transmission leak. He calls me the next days says it s ready. I go get it and drive to work about 15 miles. Everything is great. I go into work then come out for a few minutes to move my truck. The truck starts throwing random codes and acting up. Now I need to get it towed 15 miles back to Sals. They tell me the car has an electrical issue which I didn t believe, because the transmission was leaking again, and they need to call someone to look they schedule it. The day comes and the guy doesn t show, so they still have the car giving me nonsense, finally he says he looks at it and the lead frames bad cause it s leaking again, so finally he like we re going to change the lead pan so I say ok, then after starting he calls me and say I need a full rebuild that there s so much metal in the pan just some powder, after asking around and some research I find out that some small metal dust is completely normal. But I took his word since this is supposed to be a reputable buisness.Fast forward about another week they tell me it ready so I go to pick it up. As I m Walking in he calls me. So I walk in he says there is a problem, the dealership sent him the wrong part so it s going to be another $2,000. I am appalled because it is their job and responsibility to check and make sure they use the correct parts. Later that day he says there s another option we can reuse the lead frame (which is now good all of a sudden) because that was never the problem. So I am like whatever do what u need to do reuse the parts if u have to because I need my truck back. 2 days later I get the text it s all good ready to go. I go in the shop waiting he still hasn t gave me the keys. he prints out the paper work make me sign and pay, then after all is done he tell me the car is having engine issues now. Which the car had no engine issues when it first came to the shop. So I drive the tru k home it runs and drives horrible. I pull up to my house and open the hood because the whole car is shaking now, they even brok the dipstick and put it back like nobody would notice. I will not bring my vehicle back here. They will see me in court. Do not bring your vehicle here for anything I do not know how they are even in buisness.

My auto Sn95 mustang didn't wanna shift pass 2nd gear, upon diagnosing it, the technician noticed that when we put it into Drive the computer still showed 2nd gear. He advised to try to first replace a throttle position sensor, instead of doing any big expensive job, I bought the sensor and came back. It took them under an hour to install. Anyways its been a year and 5k miles with no issues. Truly amazing.

Mr. Sal is the best transmission repair Master. It was not only fast and professional that he fixed the transmission momentarily but he added a great value by not asking for an appointment to diagnose and also it was a great experience that he does not charge a lot for the repair services. Really recommended!!!

Sals Transmission is the best shop in Brooklyn, he is very honest and he gives the best price, if he promises at some time, he will either make it earlier or on time. If I have any problems with my juke I go straight to Sal. Great service

Sal s transmission was fantastic! I was using another mechanic, asked them to do a trans fluid change @78k mi. 2 weeks later my car was having trouble shifting up from 2nd to 3rd. They refused to even diagnose my car. I went to the dealership: they originally quoted me $8500 for a trans, just as I walked out the door the quote was $5600. Sal s quoted me $3600 test drove the car, free diagnoses, explained my issue in full detail. Was thorough and kind through the whole process and even apologetic for the time it took to install the trans. I now know a place I can trust for maintenance and repairs. Having saved anywhere from $2000 to $5000

I rarely do any reviews, however this time is an exception, since I am truly amazed with service. I recently moved from Florida, where I used a dozen of "good" mechanics. Sal is the best I have ever met as the car "technician", not simply a mechanic who knows how to properly take apart / assemble the parts. Highly recommend for any type of work (don't be mislead by the "transmission" title), you will be more than happy!

What a great place. I was going to sell my car when the fly wheel and converter went. Sal fixed for a good price and works like new. Even asked me to come back in a month. He test drove on the spot and said all good. No extras. Forgive me but I cant remember her name but the sweetest girl works at the front desk and she actually helping to push cars into the shop. Old school Brooklyn fair price and good service. I'll be back for all my servicing- steve dService: Transmission

One of the absolute best transmission repair or put in new transmission stations that there is within 25 mi of me. And I don't know if the 25 mi if they can beat Sal. The owner is a very personable person. Once he evaluates your car you really do not need to get a second opinion. He also does all types of repair and adjustments. All of his workers are professional and extremely courteous. The work is done within the parameters of what sal tells you. But if it takes longer or if you really need something else that he sees, it's done within a respectable time. I have a charger 2013 that had some very particular problems. His mechanics like romaine who worked on my car. Figured it out in more than a respectable time. The garage is super clean, and there's plenty of lifts to get you in for the day. My name is Chris and I have a 2013 Dodge charger srt, and sales transmissions does all my work. I raced the car on a monthly basis extremely fast and I trust him with all his repairs.

Sal and his team/ family are the most professional, caring, proactive and diligent group of people I had the honor to do business with. I was treated like I was family, Sal and his team kept me up to date with what they were doing and what was going on with my vehicle. It was a pleasure and I wish this business 100 million years of success they deserve it.Service: Transmission

Sal was very professional and honest.Another shop told me I needed a total transmission rebuild because of the leak I had. I went to Sal for a second opinion and he figured out in a few minutes that it was just a hose. $100 and 45 minutes later I am leak free.Sal saved me $2,300. I couldn't be happier nor recommend his shop enough.Service: Transmission

Owner Sal, is a nice and professional man who does his job for 100%. My transmission on my Mercedes broke gave the car to them got it back in two days. They made only one mistake when did not add enough oil to transmition when they switched it but it was not fatal. Couse when you add oil to transmition you have to run car for few minuts and make transmition work they dod not do it bit is fine. But when i came back i got car start kicking anf hoghr RPM they fixed it free of chargend and clead my computer. Siper cool and super nice. Recomend 100%

I've heard about Sal's Transmissions for many years and thought about using their services way back when, but went with another business. That decision turned out horribly. When I had transmission problems with my current car I didn't hesitate to bring it to Sal's. Sal and Desiree are professional, friendly, and accommodating. My working hours makes it difficult to be there during their working hours, but Sal worked with me so that I could pick up my car at a time that worked for us both.EDIT:Decided to add another repair service from Sal. Two weeks ago while driving home my driver's axle gave out. Called Sal's and spoke with Desiree. She told me to have the car towed to them and they would call me back with the diagnosis, even offering a tow for me. Luckily, I had AAA and had the car towed to their shop, and within a couple of days I was back on the road.Services: Transmission, Steering & suspension repair
