I had an issue with my torque converter on my 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and Academy transmission came highly recommended. I met with Mel and was very comfortable with the information he gave me about the repair of my vehicle.They completed the job I. A reasonable amount of time and at a reasonable price. I would highly recommend Academy transmission to all of my friends. They were up front with the repair, the price was reasonable and the service and friendly atmosphere will keep me coming back. If you have an issue with your transmission the check these folks out. I guarantee you will not be disappointed. These folks really know their stuff when it comes to transmissions. Don't go anywhere else but Academy transmission.

They do decent work, but they are very slow. If its your only car, find another shop. You have to wait 6-8 weeks for an appointment, then be sure to not miss it. We had a family medical emergency and missed our appointment. I called 3 days later and was pushed out another 6-8 weeks and had one of the owners yelling at me for begging for a closer appointment.The other issue is they dont work full time at this shop. Your repair will take weeks to complete.Service: Transmission

I have been dealing with Academy for years. They are the only one that I would take my trucks to for transmission work. Extremely knowledgeable, fast, and far priced.

Mel and Thaddeus are excellent professionals!! We've been dealing with them for many years and have always had good results. They not only troubleshoot the problems with our vehicle transmissions, but they are very courteous and they take the time to explain to us the problems they find with our vehicles. Then they give us an estimate to repair the problem. We have recommended them to friends and realtives and we will continue to do so!!Service: Transmission

The worst experience I ever had.I brought my sons th400 to this clown because he came recommended from a few of my customers. I own an auto parts store in Newburgh.I was charged 2k for a "complete rebuild" Ill make this long story short, The first red flag was I dropped the pan to put on a aluminum B&M pan and there was a pile of seeds just laying in the pan as well as metal filings-All the parts inside this transmission was the original and I have the parts to prove it-The 2nd rebuild is perfect-I never leave reviews but this guy got me-

Thank you to the employees at Academy Transmissions. You guys were very polite, professional, and knowledgeable. I really appreciate that you took the time to explain in detail all the mechanical problems I had, and the repair options. The cost to repair my vehicle was fair. Job well done.

Academy Transmissions fixed my car professionally, timely and were very accommodating. They called me when my vehicle was done and the whole experience was hassle free. I would bring my vehicles to them ten out of ten times. Thank you for the great work you do!

Academy saved my car and money!So my 2008 Mazda 3 was having transmission problems. My car would only let me go through gears 1-3. So I take it to the Dealership. Dealership took a few days to look into it and perform a repair. The dealership ended up making the issue even worse. After the dealership performed their "repair" my car would now only go through gears 4-5. The dealership said the only step after that would be to replace the transmission. After feeling screwed by the dealership I went to Academy Tranmissions. What a difference! Friendly owners and an attitude which felt like they truly cared about me and my car. Academy Transmissions was quick and accurate in finding out the true issue with my car. Academy Transmission successfully resolved an issue with my wiring harness and saved my car from a very costly transmission replacement. Don't get screwed by the dealership! Go to Academy Transmissions! They will absolutely take care of you. The knowledge and skill of Academy's crew is unbeatable! I am an extremely satisfied customer.

They fixed the Transmission. In the process they broke a valve in the Cooling system. I overheated leaving the shop. They refused to take responsibility for the damage and left me stranded on the roadside. When I towed the car back to the shop they told me to get the car off their property.Service: TransmissionService: Transmission

Mel checked my clutch and gave me pointers to help me decide if I should have it replaced. No pressure and they were very friendly. . Go see Mel about your transmission BEFORE you go anywhere else.

I dropped my vehicle off to be repaired . They took it out for test drive , put it on computer diagnostics , and checked a few other mechanical devices . They found an engine code which was contributing to the issues with the transmission . Transmission was fine and told me how to fix the issue .Mind blown !!!! No charge for anything they did . What a class act operation !!I cannot thank you guys enough ! Im still in disbelief . A+ guys !!
