Stumbled in here defeated in the midst of a long roadtrip with a slipping transmission. Previously rebuilt in Denver and still under warranty so I ended up not servicing here, though their professionalism made me wish I did. Brian was as helpful as he could be and runs a great team- thanks Isaac and Joe for a speedy diagnosis!

I am so very grateful for Brian and his crew at AAMCO Transmissions & Total Car Care on North 3rd in Coeur d'Alene. I was miserable hauling a boat from the Seattle area with my F350 Ford truck without air conditioning during an August heatwave. Shop after shop turned me away, some quite impolitely. I was dreading the thought of the return drive over the mountains in 80°-90° temperatures. Brian was willing to do a quick diagnosis. Then, he hooked the truck up to his diagnostic machine, identified what he thought might be the issue, and voila! Cool air. What a relief. Anyone willing to help a traveler under such conditions is a hero. I very highly recommend this shop for your regular service as well.

I recently took my pickup to AAMCO for a transmission service and oil change. I couldn’t be more impressed. I live 2 hours away and it was well worth it! Brian, the manager and Isaak, the technician, were incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and most importantly, honest! They took the time to explain exactly what needed to be done and didn’t try to push any unnecessary upsells, which I really appreciated. It’s rare to find a shop that prioritizes transparency and quality over sales tactics. I left feeling confident in the work done, and my pickup is running smoother than ever. Highly recommend AAMCO for anyone looking for reliable, honest service! I will definitely be going back again!

I got my truck dodge Ram 2500 back over a week ago they did an amazing job. Not only that but they gave us the opportunity to speak to the mechanic to show us the broken transmission and keep the small piece as a souvenir. My truck is running excellent. I highly recommend this place they will take care of your vehicle like their own.

This AAMCO is an excellent choice for all things transmission-related. Brian, who works there, is fantastic! He is knowledgeable, kind, and highly professional. He represents the business exceptionally well, making you feel valued and respected, unlike some shops that can come across as predatory/sales oriented. If you qualify for their 6-month no-interest credit card, I highly recommend it. The process is secure, streamlined, and convenient. Just be sure to pay it off within six months to avoid any interest charges! Overall, I had a 10/10 experience and would recommend this AAMCO team to any friend or colleague in a heartbeat!

Save yourself time and money and the headache of having to deal with place. I took my car there on veterans day and it took them almost a month to fix my car and everytime I talked to them it was something else wrong with my car. I came back in for my 500 mi reinspection and they told me they couldn't look at my car and scheduled me appointment for a few days later in that time I ended up having another issue with my car and took it to the Nissan dealer for repairs when I get there the Nissan mechanic asked me why I have a block of wood holding up my engine to my shock I said what are you talking about and he quickly escorted me over to my car to show me that the motor mount Aamco supposedly replaced was being held up by a block of wood that they bolted down! Not only that I had axles put in my car at Aamco and they never put the axle nut on my new axles I paid for and they forgot to put a brake clip in. I spent a large amount of money and had to go to Nissan and have everything that they fixed redone because they did such a poor job fixing my car I will never ever recommend Aamco to anybody take my advice and do not take your car there unless you want to have to pay double for getting the repairs done at another place less than one month later oh yeah they also took off the center caps to my custom rims and never gave them back! Tried to get a hold of someone to express my concerns at the corporate level and you can't get a hold of anybody! This company is a joke scamming people out of thousands of dollars!!

I have had an excellent experience each of the 2 or 3 times I have used this shop in the past and no exception on my most recent visit. Manager Brian is professional, knowledgeable and patient. Despite it being a busy shop, he spends the time needed to understand the situation and find the most affordable solution for your problem. I will be back for all my repair needs.

If you want honesty and knowledge these are your people for your transmission. I am so happy and thankful I took my car to them. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone. They gave me my faith back in humanity. Without going into a long story I was told I needed a $7,000.00 new tranny by the lot I bought my car from. It turned out that it only needed miner work because the staff are honest and trustworthy.i had my car back in two days. I am 100% satisfied. Thank you Brian and thank you to your staff. She drives so much better now. Pick AAMCO in Cda, ID. They will do you right.

Great shop to work with. We had to put a new transmission in our older Ford F350 super duty diesel. The guys did a great job. Brian at the front desk was really nice. When the diesel shop asked us to check on the engine the guys at AAMCO stopped what they were doing to help we check some things. The whole staff here is really nice and they know their stuff. I would highly recommend them.

Great service from this AAMCO location, helping to diagnose my daughter’s Nissan Altima. It’s refreshing to find a place that shoots straight and explains the situation.

Aamco took care of our problem with a speed sensor. After we had it worked on it was still giving us grief, so we made another appointment and they repaired under warranty. Since it is a small shop there may be a bit of a wait on getting an appointment, but it is well worth it. Brian was a pleasure to talk to and made the whole experience that much better!

Excellent experience and service! They completed some brake work in an efficient and affordable manner. While they were on the job, they located a chronic problem that no one else has been able to fix - repaired it and only charged for the additional parts. Overall, I was very happy with the care received. Update 9/4/18: I've had two more opportunities to have my truck serviced at the Coeur d Alene AAMCO and they continue to provide excellence above and beyond. I am so impressed with the quality of both the technicians and the customer service. The store manager, Brian, is an absolute pleasure to work with. Keep up the great work!

I was moving about 1,400 miles away and need my truck to get me there so I brought my truck here. These guys at AAMCO, not only put in my own part, they also made sure that it was in good condition as well as the rest of my transmission, at an amazing price!!! Now it runs better than ever!! These guys are truly exceptional mechanics!!! The manager, Brian, made sure that I was ok with all the maintenance that was done and was very helpful towards any question I had.

These guys worked on my 2002 2500 DURAMAX SIERRA, and I cannot say enough about the quality job. I had my cracked bell housing replaced (which is a huge lengthy job to R&R in Allison transmission, also why I was referred to these guys to do the job as many shops don't want to work on Allisons ) I was also recommended to install a shift kit while they were at it to lengthen the life of my truck and WOW!.. I'M SO GLAD I DID. my truck has never driven better, the ease of shifting and speed and glide between gears is mind blowing. No more shaking at 70 mph and runs strong and fast. I can't believe what a difference all the work has made. They also noticed my starter was on its way out and took the liberty to fix that and work it into my original quoted price as I was already spending a lot at their establishment. I didn't feel ripped off once, I felt looked after and cared for and they considered me and the importance that this truck means to me. Thank you a million times for getting the job done right, and WELL. I'll absolutely be back! Bryan is a stand up guy and owner(?) Thank you to him and his team.

Had a warranty done on our transmission on a Chevy express van. Brian went above and beyond to help see everything through and the tech's are experts in their field. Best of all the moral compass is pointing in the right direction. AAMCO has my business for from now on.
