Best Transmission Repair In Plainfield, IL

Transmission Rebuild

★★★★★

“ Ron and his team are great! About two months ago, I needed a transmission rebuild and I found a guy to do the work much cheaper than anyone else... Unfortunately, it ended up being the worst experience I've had with a shop thus far. The prior trans failed within 3 weeks and instead of honoring his 1 year warranty, he dodged me completely, stopped answering my phone calls and disappeared... A TOTAL waste of time and a lot of money. Frustrated, stranded, and in serious need of a good trans, I found Last Chance Auto and saw all the great reviews. Ron said he had a lot of experience with Honda transmission and that he'd get me back up and running. Sure enough, within 5 days the car was ready and it's been running perfectly ever since! I've been extremely satisfied with LCA (Last Chance Auto) and would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of good work. Thanks again guys!”

- Fernando R

Trans Went Out

★★★★★

“ When the transmission went out in my 2003 Camry with 85000 miles I shopped around and picked Last Chance. Ron quoted a fair price competitive with other independent shops and performed the work and has been running smooth for almost 3 years and 20,000 miles now.. So I have taken my Ford Econoline van my girlfriends Suzuki my daughters KIA and the Camry back in for minor and major repairs. As an airline pilot who is obsessed with knowing the details of the mechanical condition of whatever I fly and drive Ron understands that and explains in as deep and complete detail including the engineering behind what he is fixing as I want. I used to work on my own cars because I trusted NO ONE! I don't anymore because I trust Ron way more than myself. I've had two return issues. A very minor leak on the transmission which he found a seal had been pinched during install. They replaced it HASSLE FREE. The second was a noisy bearing on my Van after a repack. He discovered bad bearings and replaced the bearing no charge hassle free! He stands behind his work and knows his profession like no other! This is my family mechanic! Took me 20 years but finally found him!”

Clutch Replacement

★★★★★

“ First took my Dodge Neon to last chance a few months ago to replace the clutch. Great price, great people, especially the owner Ron. Most impressively there has been an issue after the repair was made, and Ron and his team bent over backwards to make sure it was right. He really works to take care of you until your happy.”

- Harley J

Most Friendly

★★★★★

“ This is one of the most friendly interesting auto repair shops I've ever been to. The customer service is got to be one of the best in town. They actually gave me a ride home free of charge. The only question asked was do you live close. The only downfall was that I had to wait two days to get the vehicle back. Is that a downfall, when the dealer would of had it a week. I think not! At the best auto repair shops in the world, people schedule jobs for a reason. This place excepts walk ins. But any service thats highend, quality and reasonably priced is going to get busy. How long does it take to rebuild a transmission? Some shops that I found on the internet told us up to a week and a half. I thought a down time of two days was more than fair. They gave me the rebuild estimate on the spot. Before they gave me a free ride home after the price made me so happy I threw my keys at them and started to run. Then I remembered that I needed a ride home. Opps! A lot of people these days are not educated about their vehicle or anything auto related. They without a doubt taught me a great deal about my vehicle and all about the auto industry. Everyone does things different but after this experience I learned my lesson and now I understand a lot more than I did before. How different businesses work there strategies how they suck you in. How a lot of people have to educate themselves before they talk negatively about something they don't understand. Their repair rebuild went great I didn't even have to rent another vehicle. The transmission rebuild service they did for my Toyota Camry worked out beautiful. Their standard warranty is 1 year or 12,000 miles on a rebuilt transmission. They offered a lifetime but it wasn't necessary. Great customer service very knowledgeable technicians.”

Fluid Was Low

★★★★★

“ I thought my transmission was going, but the people at Last Chance said that although the symptoms sounded like trans, the mileage was too low for it to be that. They were right, the fluid was low and needed replacing but the trans was fine. They took it for a test drive, looked under the hood, did the computer thingie and talked to me about the vehicle and consulted with each other before deciding that all I needed was an overdue tune up. I was impressed with how friendly, professional and efficient the team of people at Last Chance was. I felt like I was letting my very own Dad evaluate and take care of my car just like my college days. The price was fair as well.”

- Nora Parkman

Transmission Rebuild

★★★★★

“ First we thought the brakes were locked up so we needed a tow. Then after the tow that turned out to be free in the long run we found out something else. They connected their diagnostic scanner and concluded a different situation with the health of my vehicle. Several trans codes were in the computers history. Wow what a learning experience! I'm glad my buddy from church gave me there card and it was in my wallet. Then we found them on here and that was the least we can do. To let people no what kind of place this is. Fair budgeted price they even towed it for free. I guess they tow it for free with any major job or project. Thanks Last Chance!”
