Took my car there after spending $1300 on wheeels and axles at Michels days before. They quoted me 1400-1900 MAX depeding on extent of damage. ended up being 2400. I still do not have my car. I took it in Tuesday last week they sadi it would be done thursday, friday at the latest. then oh you need a new part Monday morning for sure then Monday at 12 then Monday at 4. I sent my husband up there to wait until four. bet you he comes home with an excuse and no car. or even worse a broke car. It is Tuesday Dec 22 2014 so close to christmas yet they DGAF.
I searched the web and called the number on one of the Google ads. I talked to Steve Huffner at Mr. Transmission at 11642 Jones Road in Houston. He told me he was the person who put the ads on Google, and wanted a good review. He told me he was hired to turn the company around. He says my car does not qualify for the $1,385 special, but he will do it for $1,985. I agree to the service. He tells me that this is the final price according to the web special. He picks the car up for free and has it towed to Houston, and he pays the tow truck $180. I am promised the car will be fixed in 4 days. I prepaid the bill and sign a contract that says he can charge me for whatever he wants, which is different than what his online ads says (no hidden costs and walk out the door price). What a fraud and slimeball. Don’t do business with this guy!!
Steve told me he paid for a Google advertisement, but online today I saw advertisements for at least 4 websites below all pointing to Steve at Mr. Transmission and the same advertisement. See the actual websites as noted on the web pages below. And view the video that goes with the website.

Once the car was at Mr. Transmission, I got a call from Steve Huffner. He said that due to internal parts in the transmission that were bad, I needed to pay an extra $800. I said that the quote that I got included a complete rebuild and that I did not owe any more money. He said that the parts were excluded on the contract and that I owed the money. At this time, I believed I was defrauded since they had my car as hostage and they were extorting money from me. I paid the amount as a result of fear that I would never get my car back unless I paid. Then, Steve informed me that I owed another $450 for more parts. I paid that amount as well since they would not release the car until I did. I got the car more than 10 days after I was promised it would be done.
These costs were in excess of the advertised prices per the 4 websites Steve paid Google for and my contract. Look at the video on his website. It talks about no hidden costs and walk out the door costs. This is deceptive advertising by Mr. Transmission and Steve Huffner. This is a bait and switch and I was defrauded. The Sheriff’s Department has said they have gone out to see Huffner a dozen times. They suggested a class action lawsuit to shut them down. Put them out of business by doing no business with Mr Transmission.
I have a 2006 Mercedes benz that had mechanical problem I took it to Mr. Transmission. They told me it was a transmission problem they made sounded like they knew what they were doing. I paid them almost $5,000 for them to replace transmission. I trusted them I was in good hands n that the problem was fixed. After about 10 months the same problem came back n this time, I took it to Mercedes dealership to diagnose d problem. Long story short, Mr.transmission lied to me and all the parts they claim was replaced by new were still the original. I ended up spending another $6,000 to have Mercedes dealership fix the issue. Everyone at Mr. Transmission works as a team liars and scammers. Just like the previous rip off report, they are the con-artist. It is now under the new owner/management by the name Tim. However they still practice bad ethics. When a lot of money is involved in fixing a car, please take it to your dealership and repair it. Too many rip offs who only takes advantage of you whenever they can...I am suing them to seek justices.
Took my car to get repaired from a car wreck. The manager met with Farmers insurance agent and went over the repairs that were necessary. Mr. Transmission called me and told me that they could also do the repairs to wheel and tire, exhaust manifold and right front strut. The insurance company paid them $4800. They told me the car was completed and had it towed to the body shop only to discover they did not do the work that they had been paid for. They put in a rebuilt transmission and only replaced front casing. the back and middle was also damaged. They did not replace the manifold or wheel and tire. When I called they refused to discuss and said they did everything they were paid for. I had to pay for it myself to get the car fixed. It took weeks and meanwhile I was paying for a rental car. The accident occurred in December and I am getting the car back tomorrow-4/19/14.
