Worst Auto service I ever received! Stay away!

It looks like the previous two reviews were made by the owner and employes. Reads more like a commercial than reality in my opinion. My experience was nothing like the above.



PROS: Cheap Prices (sort of)

CONS: Poor, Un-professional Workmanship & Incomplete Job



More than a week late & my car does not work properly. I took it to another transmission shop and they said that Escondido Transmission has the worst reputation in the area for bad transmission jobs. That mechanic said that my transmission was not built or installed correctly & I may have to replace it very soon.



Escondido Transmission uses the cheapest parts available and substandard equipment and labor. That's the opinion expressed by Two transmission shops that I personally had to visit about my continuing transmission problems.



My car was returned filthy inside & out and I still can't get out the stains on my carpet and upholstery.



When I went back to Escondido Transmission to complain, The owner Art Vargas went into a fit of rage. In my opinion, he was demeaning, threatening, abusive & expressed that he actually "hated" me because "I was not smart enough to see how great of a mechanic HE is". Obviously, customer service is not in Art Vargas' skill-set. More than a little self-righteous for my reality.



In My Opinion, You Couldn't Do Much Worse Than Escondido Transmission!



I hope my experience will help you to avoid this kind of unnecessary disappointment from a very poor quality transmission shop in your time of need.

Great place!

This is a great place to take you'r car to, small and friendly with fast service. I would suggest this shop to any one who doesnt want to deal with people trying to make them buy parts they dont need or off the chart prices. It's been over 7 years I been taking my vehicles here and am completely satisfied. Thank's Escondido Transmisson and Team!
