I heard good things about New York transmission group so when the transmission in my van started banging and slipping I had it towed to them and they had me up and running like new in just a couple of days. I would definitely recommend them. read more

The shop was very thorough and kept me up to date with everything. My 4Runner drives even better now after replacing the neutral safety switch, and giving it a transmission service. I would use this shop again. read more

I took my car to get transmission changed. The owners where very nice and professional. I had to take the car back to get programmed. They weren't able to program it but their people made sure they stole my sunglasses and airmoto. When I called to put in the complaint I got the answering machine. Left a message of what happened and no one ever returned my call and my car was never fixed. I would highly recommend you take it elsewhere or not leave anything in your car for these thief's to take. read more

I have a 1965 Thunderbird convertible. The car is fully detailed and is "my baby". I fix everything that my car needs right away and the rear seal on my transmission started to leak. The mechanic that I use for my family car did not feel comfortable working on my classic car so I started to search for a transmission repair shop that works on classic cars. It's not that easy to find. After many calls, one repair shop stood out way above the rest. It was New York Transmission Group. Jeff, the owner, answered the phone himself just like I did when I owned my company. I liked that. There was no doubt in my mind that Jeff knew exactly what I needed and how to do it. From the moment I pulled into his shop I knew I was in good hands. Jeff did not do the repair himself but paid attention to the repair from the beginning to completion. He is a real "hands on" guy. I liked that too. A big plus is that Jeff does much more than transmission work and works on all cars, new and classics. Business owners know how difficult it is to run an honest business and Jeff came through with flying colors. New York Transmission Group is now my go to repair shop for any repairs to all my cars. I did the hard work of finding a honest auto repair shop that knows their stuff. You can thank me later and please say hello to Jeff. read more

First and foremost, I have to credit the 20 reviews prior to mine. I went to New York Transmission Group to have my car repaired because of those 20 prior reviews. I went to NYTG on a Saturday morning due to a transmission fault code. Arriving at the shop, I saw mechanics and cars being worked on. I went directly to the office on the left side of the building. Jeff, the president of NYTG, said a scan and road test was necessary to do a preliminary diagnosis on the car's transmission. After the road test, Jeff assessed the transmission had an electrical issue and would need to be left at the shop for further diagnosis. I left the car there and got a ride back. By Monday afternoon, NYTG contacted me and explained some broken wires could be the source of the problem. By Tuesday afternoon, NYTG contacted me and said my car's had been repaired. By Wednesday morning, I picked up my car and drove to my commute. As far as I can tell, the people at NYTG are honest, hardworking people. Their reputation is solid and a fantastic model for local businesses to follow. I wish them continued success. If your car has to be repaired, I say go to New York Transmission Group like I did. read more

I would totally recommend going there it was a great experience for me anthony the manager made everything clear and simple and was able to identify the issue my car had inside the transmission you would paying for quality and good service in a short time manner read more

Well, I will be honest. The staff was responsive, work took 2-3 weeks. It is a transmission. All good. Price for me stuck me good. Folks it is a transmission. My key was lost in the work but the staff gave me 50 bucks back for another key. Thought 7-11 was the only place to get another replacement key and they obliged that was great. The transmission itself? Oh my good lord it was like I was and still am driving a new car!!! Stellar work, pricey but far reached the warranty terms which is all I wanted to prove a point. Amazing work, attentive, I even brought it to have a few bolts tightened. One hell of a transmission!!! Any questions go for it!!! read more

My car started to make a horrible grinding sound and after doing some research, I found the stellar recommendations of NYTG and brought in my car. Their shop appears extremely busy. Initially they thought it was the catalytic converter, so we left the car for further testing. After a few days, there were able to take a closer look at the car. It turned out to be an oil leak which ended up being a much less expensive repair. We felt extremely comfortable with this shop, they explained everything clearly, and the fact that the ultimate solution was much less expensive than their preliminary evaluation attests to their honesty and integrity. The car is back in good working condition, and I would have no hesitation using them again in the future. read more

NYTG is the best! We live over 350 miles from them but found the perfect used car for our daughter there. Jeff made the experience effortless and went WAY out of his way to make sure we had nothing to worry about. Car was detailed and all the mechanicals were checked and taken care of. He even had one of his guys deliver it to our home. Can't say enough about how great NYTG is!! read more

I was having some car problems (entire car was shaking, "Service Engine Soon" light came on/flashing and most of the acceleration power was gone), and also I was hearing screeching of metal-n-metal coming from one of my front wheels and the brakes were being a little janky so I went to my usual mechanic. They hooked it up to the diagnostic machine and both codes that came back were transmission codes. They don't handle transmission jobs but referred me to a guy out in L.I. who is a transmission specialist and told me that he usually gives referrals a hook-up with an extended warranty as well as would come and get the car towed to his shop. So my mechanics speak to the guy in L.I and give him the diagnostic codes. He comes back and says it's definitely the transmission and that in his shop they just get a new transmission from the dealer and swap it out. When I asked about the price, the guy in L.I. told quoted me $4000 + another $200-$300 if the computer on the new transmission wasn't programmed and had to have someone from the dealer come in. On top of that, there was no special extended warranty, "Just the manufacturer's one-year warranty", and I would have been responsible for covering the entire cost of the tow. Because of all this, I started looking local and shopping around. From the very start, Cary was very straightforward with me and personable during our 10 -minute conversation. He said that they specialize in transmission rebuilds and if anything is wrong with the transmission they would go that route. He told me that sometimes engine issues can mask transmission problems and found it odd that the "Service Engine Soon" light was on with no engine codes. He told me that if it was an issue with the transmission that it would not be as expensive as the quotes I got for getting a brand-new transmission and talked to me about some alternatives. He also said that regardless of where I end up going, it would be ill-advised to take the word of someone who hasn't actually gotten their hands on and driven the car. He then offered to run his own diagnostic check and take it for a spin to see if they can pinpoint what was wrong. The following day I get the car over to NYTG. Cary is very friendly and accommodating and we even cracked a few jokes. After about 20 minutes, the diagnostic check and drive is done- now 3 codes are showing (the two transmission codes and now one engine) and the mechanic who drove it said it seems like it could be a misfiring cylinder or similar thing. Cary tells me that he wants to take care of the engine issue first and then move on to the transmission. He graciously asked me how I was planning on getting back home and told me that his driver was going to take a trip and could drop me off if I didn't mind waiting an hour or so. I was a little taken aback as I never have been offered a complimentary ride at any mechanic before, but I opted to take an Uber back. After a few days, he calls to tell me that one of the cylinder coils was dead and also suggested replacing the spark plugs and giving the car a tune-up. I agreed and after a few more days he said that the engine issues were fixed, and there are no longer any transmission codes. What it cost to fix the engine was about 1/6th of what I was quoted for the transmission (and what could have potentially just been switched out when the issue wasn't even with the transmission, had I ended up going to the guy in L.I.). Cary also told me that while the car was up on the lift they saw the brake issue and told me flat-out, "Your front brakes are completely shot- it's just metal rubbing on metal, you have a broken caliper on one and I'm surprised that you haven't gotten into an accident with how bad this is". I did already know about and was planning on getting the brakes fixed but was going to have it done at my usual mechanic once the engine/transmission problems were taken care of. Cary did also say, "Since we have the car here already I can take care of it, though I honestly wouldn't feel right about giving you the care in this state because of how dangerous it is" but did give me the option to go elsewhere. I asked Cary if he could just do the repairs. Several days later Cary gave me a call and told me the car was fixed, but did say that his driver was off that day but could try to arrange for a pickup which again was unheard of to me, but I again took an Uber. Cary did say to keep an eye on things over the next hundred or so miles and if anything comes up, to let him know and he'll take another look. So after getting the engine and brakes taken care of I still ended up paying less than half of what I was quoted on the transmission at the other locations and the car has been running great. I really appreciate the honesty and customer service experience I got from NYTG and I would highly recommend them!!! read more

Loved this place. very honest, quick, professional and personable. if you have prior experience with shops that try to make some money from you, Jeffs establishment might change your mind. Great guy, great service. read more

I've done mechanical work independently for some time, including engine rebuilds. When the transmission on my 2010 Bentley Continental GT started shifting slowly, I knew I needed a second opinion. Cary was quick and professional. We ended up needing to replace my unit. He got an incredible deal on a new unit from Bentley and stuck to his estimate even though the job became extremely complex. These are the only folks I will trust with my transmission work going forward. Five stars read more

I noticed that my Jeep was having trouble getting up to speed when I started to enter the highway. It didn't have the power that it used to. Also there were small signs of oil underneath the car. I searched through the labyrinth of transmission repair shops and luckily found NYTG in College Point, New York. They quickly diagnosed the problem and recommended rebuilding the transmission. They were honest, diligent and performed an excellent rebuild for a fair price. I am very pleased with their service. Great group of guys. Thank you! read more

I was stranded when my car broke down in a neighborhood that I was unfamiliar. I called them since it was the nearest auto repair shop that I found. Carey that helped me was very friendly. His instructions was very clear and speedy response when he was coordinating a tow service pick-up. For the repair, my vehicle needed the transmission to be rebuild. They provided me a quote in a timely manner and explained the job very clear. Good communication. After the repair, my car is now running great. These guys delivers quality service. read more

Reliable and honest service. Respectful staff. Highly recommended. Location is tricky to find but worth the search.

Highly recommend NYTG. Very thorough explanation of the transmission job that was to be done. Jeff kept me constantly updated on the progress. Job was done in a timely manner. I was even told that I should bring the car back after driving 1,000 miles for a follow up to make sure all was working properly. read more

Been having transmission trouble for a while that I had been putting off. The car is old and not worth fixing for most people so, the guys talked it over with me to see if I really thought the serious work would be worth it. They did their best to save me money wherever possible as noted by their frequent communication and consultation as to what I wanted done. Finally, the work was completed - in a timely manner too, despite an additional complication that they found and addressed for me. My 22 year old heap drives like a dream now. read more

Cary and Jeff, did a great job of taking care of my car. The work was completed in a timely manner. Had a Torque Converter, Transmission, Driveline and Transfer case all redone. All the work was done clean and neatly, they explained all work that needed to be done prior to fixing it. After completion, Cary sat down,and went over all the service and work that was done with me. Knowing that the car is driven back and forth to Florida, they did advise me, that they are a part of a network of mechanics and should I need anything on the road, they will set me up with somebody. read more

My clutch burned out completely while crossing the George Washington Bridge into New Jersey. Had to make an emergency stop off the first exit. Not only did they help me work with the Palisades police and port authority to get a tow over and accommodate the camper we were hauling, they also jump through impressively fiery hoops to get my vehicle operating again as soon as possible. We were traveling back home after a holiday week vacation, and had a very tight timeline to adhere too. We are now only eight hours behind. Amazing service for such a complicated repair! read more

Excellent experience, the owner is honest and friendly. They did a great job for an honest price and they did it quickly. They replaced my transmission and they very well with my warranty company. It was Just a lovely experience and I am a satisfied customer! Thank you. read more

Friendly service from the first phone call. They got my car in, diagnosed what was wrong, and fixed it quickly and efficiently. Car runs great. They even gave me a ride home while they worked on the car which was a surprise. Mechanics were transparent in what work they did and sent me picture of the car being worked on, a nice touch. They explained what was done and why. Would recommend and would go back. read more

rebuild transmission on a 2008 Ford Explorer. very satisfied with the work, truck runs like new. Will recommend, thanks.

Did a good job diagnosing and fixing transmission. Took their time to fully explain the problem and all the possibilities. Would definitely recommend them. read more

Brought my car to K & B and found out it needed a rebuilt transmission. I took a little longer due to Covid-19 but the car is back and runs as good as new. Jeff treated me with the utmost professionalism. read more

Thought I was having a transmission problem (engine seemed to be racing and yet not accelerating). Jeff took it for a test drive (2005 Dodge Caravan) and said it was a catalytic converter problem, not a transmission problem. He sent me to a shop where I had it replaced (the price was a bargain). The car runs like new. Excellent diagnosis. read more

My car had break and transmission issues. Brian, Cary, and Jeff quickly diagnosed the issue. I was given a ride home while they worked on the car, and they picked me up when the car was ready. Great service, competitively priced. Totally recommended. read more

very knowledgeable people and definitely knows what they are doing. i have a 2012 rav4 and i am a very skeptical guy about transmission flush. i dont let just any mechanic touch my AT as not everyone knows how to properly handle AT. i took it there and these people are very nice and very knowledgeable, they told me whats needed and also scanned my var for safety and for free. the car fluid was almost dark but its fully red now and shifts like air smooth, thanks guys. will definitely come back for future maintenance. read more

I'm not really in writing reviews but I was compelled to write about this place first off the energy when you walk into this establishment is amazing the customer service is a ten and these guys explained everything that was needed to be done. I actually found this repair shop on yelp and reading the reviews made me gravitate to them , I needed a transmission for my 2000 Honda Odyssey for the second time around and these guys noticed someone hands had worked on it and they didn't do a good job . I gave these guys a shot and they knocked the ball out the stadium. My van is riding like 2019 not that I rode in one before but you get what I mean. Lastly,the administrator the wonderful lady, the charismatic the gem who was amazing and very helpful with all my questions sadly I've forgotten her name but she made this experience drama free I'm definitely recommending this place to everybody. read more

I've had at least three transmissions done over the last 25 years. This is just about the most honest repair shop you could ever go to. If you want your car fixed right come here. If you just want cheap... you're not only a fool, you'll end up paying twice... come here first and get the job done right for a reasonable price. Period. P.S. Bob hasn't changed a bit in 25 years.... read more

Jeff and Cary were super helpful and informative when I brought my car here for a second opinion. They thoroughly looked at the vehicle and researched the issues extensively. They even reached out to the dealership's service center with their findings and tried to see what they can do for me. Very professional, nice guys. Would definitely recommend this place for anyone who is having any type of transmission issue. read more

This is the place to go if you are having transmission problems. Bob was very helpful and informative during the process. Great service, would definitely recommend to friends and family. read more

Bob is one of the most honest mechanics I have ever met. He is honest and explains everything. I highly recommend him.

Took my car here and BOB the owner...great guy made me aware of everything he was gonna do fr A to Z it was a great experience. They offer to take you back home if you have to leave your car and they call you when updated info is needed..he doesn't over charge for unnecessary work my car was under water took it to aamco they wanted so much too it to my dealer they charge me for no work I was out $200 Bob was honest and told me what he believe I needed to get my car back on the road and it drives well. This will be my new place to go to for all my car work. Thanks Bob I tell all my friends about my experience at your shop read more

Turned to K&B after the transmission completely failed in our 2015 Hyundai Elantra. They were really helpful over the phone, got all my information and arranged for the tow truck - even calling to confirm they'd received the car once it arrived. Can't remember whether it was Jeff or Cary (the work was done almost 2 years ago), but they explained exactly what was wrong with the car and why we'd need to completely replace the transmission, and then made every effort to get us the most economical solution. While the final cost came in at roughly the same that was quoted elsewhere, they were very helpful and informative throughout the process and it was clear they had thoroughly researched all my options and gone the extra mile to make sure we got the best solution. When we picked up the car, they even went on a test drive with us and gave us tips on how how to maintain the health of our new transmission. The work they did was guaranteed for two years or 50,000 miles, which was also reassuring. I would definitely recommend them to anyone experiencing transmission problems. read more

I recommend them to EVERYONE. They were suggested to me a few years ago when my transmission went. Bob, the owner, took the time to explain the problem to me (I know nothing about cars) and went over various other problems with me ("discovered" by other, less honest mechanics who looked at car prior) and told me what did not need to be fixed, and what did not need to be fixed right now. He saved me a good amount of money that I would have just wasted if I had listened to the crooks out there. K&b is honest and reasonably priced. I'll never go anywhere else. read more

Straight forward, honest and fair prices- and excellent work. The price quoted, is always the price you pay. Not the bait and switch tactics you get at AAMCO. read more

Awesome place. They really know their stuff and will be completely honest and thorough with their explanation of what they need to do to make the repair and why. read more

I just want to express my sincere gratitude to Bob at K& B Transmissions in Floral Park, NY. The most honest businessman I have ever had the pleasure of doing business with. Bob had my car for 3 days and didn't charge me a cent. When I sent the car to him it appeared to have numerous issues that had been diagnosed at another shop, but when returned to me all issues had miraculously disappeared. Thanks you Bob. You are my new go to guy. Gail W. read more
