  This is the place to take your car for maintenance and repair. They are very friendly and professional. Also transparent and honest. Stephen and SteveO were great to work with and constantly gave me update on my vehicle. I will be a returning customer in the future.

  To tell the full story of what I went through with my vehicle would probably take 15 paragraphs, so I’ll try my best to keep it short. I started experiencing a rumbling sensation and took my vehicle to another transmission shop in town. After several days, I discovered they hadn’t even looked at it and hadn’t been honest with me. I searched Google, asked around on social media, and Gears Transmission came highly recommended. Everything initially went well, but two or three weeks later, I began experiencing problems with the vehicle losing power. Gears checked it and confirmed that the transmission was working properly. I then visited a local garage that misdiagnosed the problem. I spent money on a repair I probably didn’t need, and while I experienced some added power, it didn’t produce good results. I returned to Gears and asked them to take another look. They identified a timing issue, which I had repaired at another garage. That repair helped, but now the vehicle was still misfiring. After dealing with the problem for several more weeks, I called Gears again. They completely understood my frustration. One of the guys offered to ride with me so he could experience the issue firsthand. I later found out that he was the owner of Gears Transmission. He was incredibly polite, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. Most importantly, he listened. He explained what he believed was happening and asked to keep the vehicle for a few days so they could properly diagnose it. While they had my vehicle, I was juggling transportation with my wife. Gears even offered to pick me up in Ooltewah and bring me back to the shop. When I got back into my vehicle, I was honestly shocked by how smoothly it drove. It felt like a brand-new vehicle. When I asked how much I owed, they told me there was no charge. I wasn’t expecting that at all and I was completely willing to pay. They knew I had already spent weeks going from garage to garage, receiving different answers and paying for repairs that didn’t solve the problem. They took the time to find the real issue, fix it, and get me back on the road. I’ve dealt with several repair shops over the years, but I’ve never had an experience like this. To say Gears Transmission went above and beyond would be an understatement. The owner listened to my concerns and made things right when other garages had failed, even though he wasn’t obligated to do so. Thank you to everyone at Gears Transmission for exceeding every expectation.

  This transmission shop is absolutely nothing short of amazing! I called them the Thursday before the 4th of July to get a quote on having the transmission in my 2014 F-550 rebuilt. They were very quick to get me a quote, and it was better than the competitors. Not only was their quote better, but they also do everything in-house. From building, washing, and painting to any machine work that needs to be done. They truly are a one-stop shop for anything transmission-related. When dealing with Steve and Justin, they were top-level when it came to customer service. They made sure I knew exactly what was going on throughout the process and ensured everything would be done professionally and efficiently. When I asked about turnaround time, they told me it normally takes 1–2 weeks. After I explained the urgency of my situation, they said they would try to get it done within a week. Well, they beat their own prediction. I dropped the truck off Monday at 10:00 AM and picked it up Wednesday at 5:00 PM. The same week, in just 2 days. That’s unheard of. So not only did they beat the competition on pricing, but they also had it rebuilt in less than 72 hours and backed it with a 3-year/100,000-mile nationwide warranty. I highly recommend Gears Transmission for any and all transmission or automotive repair needs.
