Steve and the guys at Transmission Hero are terrific! He…read moresaved me big $$! I took my 2018 Chevy Silverado there to get a transmission fluid service done because I had the "Chevy Shakes", and I wanted to see if that would help. There were codes on my code-reader that didn't make any sense, along with the "Random Misfires" code. I was fully expecting the verdict would wind up being that I'd need a new 6L80 transmission (or engine problems). But Steve's integrity came out right away. Steve said we should not do a fluid change until we first do diagnostics and see the whole picture. He's a talker... and very dogmatic, so be patient and listen to him... he definitely has tons of experience in this. He explained to me that many Chevy/GMC 5.3L V-8 engines have Active Fuel Management (AFM), and that the AFM programming in the Engine Control Module (ECM) and the over-complicated programming in the Transmission ECM (TECM) can cause the Torque Converter to lock & unlock too much; there's too much "noise". The shifting from V-8 to 4-cylinder (and back), changing speeds, braking, all cause constant Torque Converter "chatter", and I could definitely feel it. It was shakin' & shuddering! So they first ran diagnostics, and very importantly, live diagnostics while driving it so they could see the converter chattering, engine misfires, live data, etc. He told me there's likely "nothing wrong with your transmission", but we need to quiet the noise. He proposed an AFM Delete. Not the cheap little thing you get on Amazon, mind you (those don't work well), he was able to re-flash the ECM & TECM to remove the AFM programming, improve the transmission function, and also we went with new plugs, coils, and wires; BAM! No more shimmy, shimmy, cocoa-pop! NO codes on the OBD-II Scanner/Code reader! Now I have one smooth running pick'em up truck with an engine that's a full-time V-8, not dropping cylinders due to AFM. And... not sure why, but over the 2 weeks since we got this great resolution, it's getting better fuel mileage too! What I thought was going to be a very expensive problem, Transmission Hero got me out the door for a fraction of the expected costs. Thanks Steve.

I have already made a consumer complaint with the FL Dept of Agriculture and Consumer Services as well. These people took a $900 deposit, kept our vehicle for 3 weeks, did nothing on my vehicle, and now will not refund our $900. The continued to give excuses daily for reasons as to why the work was not done. Claimed they ordered the part but it never came. Claimed they are still waiting on a refund for the part they never got, yet could not show any proof of having ordered the part. Actually told me they did not have my money to give me because they used it to move their shop. After getting my car back with nothing having been done, they continued to give excuses daily as to why they still had not refunded my money.

I was referred to Gary by another local business who could not diagnose an issue I was having with…read moremy 2004 F-150. I left the competitor and dropped it off with Gary. In less than a week - I had a diagnosis as well as a few different options ahead of me. Gary explained in great detail the pro's and con's of the options provided and even made a recommendation. I opted to replace with a re-manufactured engine (that came with a 3 yr/100,000 mile warranty). Carmen - who was an angel to work with throughout the entire process - quoted me a time frame of less than a week from the day they take delivery of the engine. Less than week later (including a holiday) - I get a call to come pick my truck up it was fixed. I get there - my truck runs better than it did the day I picked it up from the dealership. Gary must have spent a good 45 minutes talking me through all of the things he noticed, his extensive testing, explanation of next steps to break the engine in, the free oil change they threw in, etc. I go back into the office and Carmen had everything lined up and stepped me through all of the paperwork that came with my new engine as well as guided me through the steps to get the warranty registered to me. She even told me to call them if I notice anything crazy with my truck and they would have me towed in at their expense - just to be safe!!! It is a pity that I am leaving the area - just when I found "The last mechanic I will ever need...". I highly recommend Gary's Car Craft - you will not be disappointed!

Gary's has already screwed two of my best friends. They both went in with small engine problems and…read morethe both wound up getting screwed for over $6500 for the one car and $850 for the 2nd car. The last car a BMW came in for oil drain pan seal replacement that cost $5000 and when he received the car back the brake lights were not working. Now how does that happen! Gary said he did not do that, so my friend left it with him again and one month later he says it is fixed but it was not two months after that he says it is fixed and wanted to charge him another $850!!! After calling bullshit on that he lowered the bill to $450. This is a pattern with this business they start with the original problem and then other things pop up making that bill larger and larger. Do not take your car to Gary's Car Craft.

Sadly, a couple of months ago after hiring these young guys and leaving a glowing review for them…read moreafter they replaced my front brake pads and rotors because I had sought mechanic help for squealing brakes. Needless to say after they replaced said pads and rotors the brakes continued to squeal. They suggested it would go away "shortly after driving a bit", but if not, they'd return and "oil them". When the squealing continued "after a bit", I contacted them again and heard nothing back. I tried again and was told they'd been sick, but promised to stop by that evening. They never showed. I contacted them again, but did not receive the courtesy of a response. Now I question the money I paid that did not solve the problem and their lack of responsiveness or accountability for stopping my brakes from squealing and following through with what they promised to do to make it right. I no longer recommend these guys so please disregard my earlier glowing review!

I have done business with this company since it was a business,..back when they were located on Blanding closer to 103rd Street up by Paint Pros...if. not mistaken that was their shop location, however this goes back to 2013-2014... The Actual owner was doing the work then with helpers or other mechanics... I brought my car to them based on a referral from a friend...saying they were New and Honest and did Good Work at a Reasonable Price Point....THE HOLY GRAIL in DUVAL it seems...so I did...and they did..and I established rapport with the owner as I promised I would do my work solely with him if he met those expectations given from the referral....I ended up moving to the Southside and lost touch...when I looked for them again they were gone...they moved....Fast Forward maybe 10 years I still have the same Car and I was in need of some repair as I had not found another "HOLY GRAIL" type shop since...so I just thought...I KNOW I USED TO HAVE A GOOD A MECHANIC....I just couldn't remember the name...so I just began typing Auto repair and Automotive into my contacts to see what popped up...then the SCHUTTER name pops up...I am like Ohhh Ish!!! That's them!!! Thinking ahhh I am saved no more BS Mechanics saying they can do X Y Z work but in actuality are full of it...So when it starts there are a few repairs done with some exceeding $1000 in price...and a few of the prices I felt were kinda exorbitant...however not too outlandish and these WERE my "Guys" you know...I THOUGHT...hey even if they charge me a little more...I am going to get SUPER QUALITY...OEM Parts...Good Word for that Money........Uhhhhhh I DON'T THINK SO..... So there were a few things that I should have but never went to War about...my Wipers stopped working Totally...anybody that Lives here knows you can't have that...so I requested them to fix them...and over $400+ later I get my car...the wipers work .. however the intermittent setting is something out of a bad movie...they do what TF they want to do, however this Company sent my car out like that and charged me...I didn't say anything that time as my main concern of having wipers was addressed,..however I was not very impressed by the work...ok the next outing..my vehicle was towed to them by some guys I know that Own a Towing Company...can't remember the actual work done however it was definitely several hundred dollars...they call me and say hey car is ready...ok great...I get there and there is some weird A indention near the bottom of the door on the passenger side....and for the 1st time my car is staged to parked after repair outside right next to a FNG Dumpster...from what I guess that was to conceal the indentation...I asked and they immediately blamed it on the Tow Truck Drivers.. without hesitation... I let it go as the work was done the indentation is not big time visible and again been working with these guys for years...Ok final thing which brings me to the reason for this review....you can see pictures and video on Social Media...I have a very slow leak from my Transmission Oil Cooler Line...I now have a Neighborhood Mechanic who does smaller jobs for me....he and I looked at and located the leaking culprit a d it was the Lower Cooler Line....he was swamped at the time and needed to truly diagnose the issue before working on it, but was 1000% certain the leak was very slow and it originated from that Cooler Line. He couldn't do the work so I decided to take it to my "Big Dawg Mechanic" the ones I knew or THOUGHT I KNEW could do Big Work. I say and explained in VIVID DETAIL to the intake guy while outside Hood Up looking at the issue. Oh BTW on the way there my Power Window mysteriously went out...so let's kill 2 birds with one stone...I asked for that to be fixed as well and I have had this done at other places...but hey I am here let's fix it...ALL THEY NEEDED TO DO WAS TIGHTEN THE COOLER LINE....THAT IS ALL...They fixed NOTHING actually loosened it more than when I brought it... ***************UPDATE********************** So after KYLE one of the owner's now or runs the books, stated to me "We'll give you the $140 back, just don't ever come back, what's the Card Number the charge was made on?" I waited 3-5 Business Days quietly no other talks except what I had posted initially, as I figured I was done with them and them with me.... but Oh No,.. as it would have it THEY WELCHED ON THEIR WORD............

After comparing a few shops, Epic Powertrain stood out--better pricing than most and the quality shows. They were upfront with a clear, transparent cost breakdown and no pressure. They also upgraded key components and back their work with an 18-month / 18,000-mile warranty, which gave me a lot of confidence. Since getting it back, the truck drives noticeably stronger than before--smoother shifts, more consistent power, and overall feels tighter than stock.
