These guys did a great job replacing a broken shift cable on my Nissan. Staff were friendly and fair with the estimate. For once I felt like I wasn't getting ripped off at an auto shop. read more

I had my transmission fluids done there it's a great place I recommend it great people and clean place

So grateful to them for being able to replace my completely fused transmission. Even the tow truck drivers could not take my car off the bed of the truck because the wheels would not turn. Also found a cracked engine mount. When picking up our vehicle, Mr. R. showed us all the parts that had to be replaced and the damage to all of them. Thank you for a job well done. read more

I recently got a Cadillac transmission repaired and rebuilt so, far so good. I'm very please. The owners are very honest and nice. Looking forward to doing business again. read more

Continental Transmission has been off of 72 & Harlem Ave. since 1979. They are a reputable mechanic shop, sure mechanic shops come and go. But this was owned by two brothers and a brother-in-law. A small family owned, started out among family and great friends. Which has lasted for almost 40 years this July 5th, 2019. How have they kept they're company going even through crisis you ask? It is because they are honest, hard working, family business men who care about their customers. In the beginning it was hard, they would get home to their children and wives at midnight sometime. But they persevered! Accomplished their goals, they take pride in their work, they care about their customers. They always aim to please, because of that, they are often criticized by other companies competing with them. Their prices are more then fair because, you are getting quality work. You might save a couple dollars elsewhere, but you'll be back because of the shortcuts they took. Not only that, they will find more things wrong with your car, and in the end you're paying more. Go to Continental the are the Doctors of all cars. You can rest easy when you leave your car. read more

What a great place to go when your car needs a little love and TLC! Being a female, I am always sceptical of car repair establishments...as if there trying to pull one over on me. However, when I first pulled in to Continental Transmission I knew this place was different...they cared and they weren't going to do anything that wasn't necessary, but they would take pride in the work that they did do. Very friendly and my car never ran better and I didnt't have to pay the sky high dealer prices! Thank you! Thank you! read more

Wow. When they say trying to find a good mechanic is harder than finding a good doctor, they were right. This place is out to scheme and scam you out of your money. I could understand that it is tough times out there, but there are better ways of conducting your business than this. When I walked into the place, I seriously could not believe that the BBB actually recommends this place. I couldn't believe that after I was almost schemed into paying 1200 dollars for a rebuilt trans. The funny thing is that at the time I went here, I was about 19 years old, and still had my one car from high school. It was a '91 lumina. But is was in good condition. For some reason when I was making left hand turns the trans would slip. I knew a decent amount about cars so when I brought it into this place and he told me I needed a rebuilt trans for a broken seal, I knew I had to get a second opinion. Sure enough I went a little further north on harlem and got an estimate. 9 dollar part plus 30 labor. Holy Shit. I just saved 1160 dollars. Plus they filled up the rest of my trans fluid for free. The car worked fine for the next 2 years. (Till i crashed it). I can't believe how sneaky this place is. If it was my choice this place would be shut down for scamming. They have no business being in business if this is the way they unproffesionally conduct themselves. And if they read this, YOU SUCK ASSHOLES! read more

Yelp needs to get on their game... Why is the only review for this place a lying 1 star review and then there's 5- 5 stars reviews that "aren't recommended" (if you scroll all the way down). This place has always given quality work with a fair price. I've referred plenty of friends and they all agree. Some have gone else where first and gotten crazy estimates. Gone to Continental Trans, and received the honest truth and a repair that is affordable and reasonable. They also are trusted enough to do work for all car dealerships in the area if their staff is overloaded. The owners came from Italy and built this business out of nothing but a hard work ethic and honesty. They treat their employees very well, most have been there since day one (1979)! No small business would last that long if they were scammers! Again YELP, this isn't the first business you've done this too with hiding good reviews! You only favor business that pay your crazy rates! That's not what it's supposed be like. Get it right! read more

WATCH OUT!!! Just learned that work completed by Continental Transmission 6 months ago has now left me with a completely destroyed transmission. My mechanic has informed me that the work was so incompetent that no reputable shop would ever claim this work. When confronted Continental claims the work but said that was all that was required to get the car on the road. They completely messed up an easy repair and did not even replace all the connections. This has now led from a $600 job which Continental charged me $1200 to now needing a $3000 new transmission. They have very short warranties because they know of their incompetence. WATCH OUT!!! read more

I have used thier services on 2 occasions. One for my 4X4 and the other for wifes sedan. They offered a free road test to see what the problem would be, and then they fixed it fairly quick, my car was ready the same day and my wifes was ready the next day. It's been over 3 years we have had our cars fixed by them and no reoccuring problems. Sounds good to me! read more

Totally professional. Estimate was right on. Fixed in a timely manner. Definitely recommend to others!

There a few times in life when you are surprised at the honesty some people show you. I came here after I was referred, having been convinced that the clutch/flywheel on my 4runner was shot. As a matter of fact multiple people with car knowledge told me I was looking at anywhere between $700 to $1500 to repair. I came here already expecting that to pay big. I was prepared for that. I even told the mechanic what my issue was and he even agreed it was probably that. Turns out it wasn't a clutch issue at all. The mechanic determined It was a loose nut that connects the driveshaft to the transmission. All it needed was to be tightened. Not only was I baffled at how simple the fix was, I was even more surprised they didn't try to gouge me for repairs I didn't need. They could have easily told me, "yeah, your clutch is gone. Gonna have to replace it." And I wouldn't have known any better. The bottom line is they didn't. The nut was tightened and I was on my way with a smile and relief. Wish every business was this honest. Thank you Sal! read more

Joe & Sal are fantastic businessmen! Their prices are extreamly competetive, and their work ethics are second to none. I have recommended Continental Transmission Service to several of my friends (all with complete satisfaction) . . . and they have also recommended this excellent transmission shop to thier friends as well ! In fact, One of my referrals recommended this shop for BBB's (Top Honor)Golden Torch Award (Stop by - you can see her letter hanging on their wall) .This shop keeps you totally informed about the necessary repairs, before they service your vehicle, and are focused on complete customer satisfaction. All (7) "Certified" Techs are well trained and do great efficient work! This is why they are so highly rated by the Better Business Bureau. Most of the Dealerships in the area send their transmission work to Continental. They warranty their repairs, and are a wonderful repair center. They have been in business now at this same location since 1979, and have a great reputation! I read the previous review - and don't agree at all with this young mans comments! I have been in the Automotive Parts Business now for 44+ years, so I know a liitle about this business! read more
