I had a personal job for spark plugs to do on my own vehicle and thought I could trust them. The spark plugs were a design flaw 2 piece design that break off in the heads. You need a special tool which is $100 so I asked them to do it. The service writer Justin said they had the tool and could do the work. After complete I asked him if they broke any spark plugs and he replied "We didn't break any" I said "Great" and drove away. A week later I started experiencing problems. P0420 code which is for Catalytic converter plugged. I replaced that and then got a P0171 code, which is too lean. After several parts I decided to pull the plugs. #6 and #8 were broke off in the head and had to be extracted. The two broken plugs were loose not like the others. After removing all 8 it was found that they did not do the job. I sent a picture to Justin and he denied that they did not do the job. He said that they would do the right thing and make it right, but when I spoke with Bruce the owner he was very rude and just wanted to pay me off for the labor and spark plugs. He also denied that they did not do the job. More recently my company requested a quote for catalytic converter on a bus where it had been cut off. Justin quoted us $597 over on the price of the converter alone. If you get work done here get a quote, check the pricing and check to make sure the work was done right. Also request that Technician #76 does not do any work. That was the technician that didn't do the work and lied about it. In the pics provided you can clearly see the difference between the old design and the new one. You can clearly see rust on the old plugs so they are not newly replaced. When I showed Bruce the plugs he tried to tell me maybe I received old stock and still denied that they did not do the work. So much for doing the right thing! I don't like writing bad reviews, but in this case I believe I should warn people since your vehicle is your lively hood. We need shops who we can trust. I understand things break but be transparent with your customers and don't blame them for your mechanics wrong doing.

I can't say enough good things about Larry Skalet (the owner) and his team at Master Transmission…read more We were on a road trip from northern MN to AZ and our transmission went out in Detroit Lakes. It was Saturday at about 4PM. For starters, Larry was the only one who would answer the phone over the weekend. But he was willing to come out to DL that evening and get us if the car couldn't make it to Fargo (which fortunately it did). After we explained our dilemma to them (I had a work interview early that week and our son was starting a new school), they worked over the weekend to completely rebuild our transmission and got us out of there by Monday at noon. In fairness I did pay them a bonus to do so (my suggestion, they did not ask for it), but they absolutely pulled out all the stops to get the transmission done for us as soon as they could. In addition, their price was well under what I know a competitive bid is for a full transmission rebuild. If you're looking for designer coffee, Muzak and fluffy couches to sit on while you wait, you'll be disappointed. (However, all of those things are a $5 Uber ride down the road.) Their operation is pretty no-frills. But that's not what I'm looking for or want in a transmission shop... I want someplace that can get the work done quickly, well, and for a fair price. If that is what you're looking for, this is the place. They're just imminently decent people who do really solid transmission work. I know I'm the first review on Yelp for them, but please don't let that keep you from giving them a try. You won't be sorry.

I first tried Fargo Automotive & Transmission for some manual transmission repairs on an older vehicle. They charged almost half of what the dealer quoted me, and when I had the work done, the car shifted smoother than the day I bought it. They have consistently gone the extra mile to explain exactly what's wrong with my vehicle, and they've given me options for choosing OEM parts or other manufacturers. Fargo Automotive & Transmission has earned a high level of trust from me over the years.

Brought it into FIF and they found the other side was going bad as well, changed my breaks and rotors and still kept the price well under what I expected to pay. Even checked if I had a ride back home which was super nice. After their team looked at the vehicle I got a comprehensive report texted to me with scores on how serious each issue was, and how much it would cost to fix each problem. It was really nice to look over the list, pick and choose what repairs were truly important to me, and have a record of the other issues my vehicle might have. They gave me regular calls/texts each day about where progress was on the vehicle (parts took longer than expected to arrive). It drives good as new. Super appreciative of the team there and I will definitely be back next time I need work done on the vehicle. Color me impressed. 10/10

They got me in within a few days and worked on the tranny. Didn't fix the problem so they had me come back in and they replaced some other components. Still was having issues.

The sheriff deputy that sat with her while waiting for a tow truck recommended Matt's. I was so impressed with the complete diagnostic breakdown they sent that included each price for each repair, and ranked the repair by color (green, yellow, red). When the long list of repairs were made at an extremely reasonable price, the truck ran like new! It seemed to be in great condition. We just (July 2021) moved my daughter to Florida in the same truck that now has 265,000 miles that actually pulled a U-Haul the whole way. It made it with no problem! I credit the incredible work done at Matt's two years ago with that truck still running like new. They are true mechanics that know how to fix vehicles and extend the lifetime of them! Thanks for honest, great work!!!
