Great Job!

I could not be more pleased. After very frustrating experiences trying to get the transmission leaks fixed in my `66 Mustang, Tim and crew at Brandon Transmission quoted a fair price and fixed it promptly. Not a drop leaking now. I highly recommend Brandon Transmission! THANKS!!!!

Master Transmission Shop

I am a teacher so I always research everything. I have done business with Brandon Transmission on Robertson & Moon. Over the years they have always impressed me. They treat me with respect. They do what they say they would do. And the price is very reasonable. They check everything for me. You can shop around for price, but the quality finds you. As for the other comments on this page, I must address that sounds like... view more one of the other transmission shops in the area trying to discredit Brandon Transmission`s GOOD NAME and I mean good name, I was referred to them by Dr. Rivera of Brandon. He was referred by Percision Automotive of Brandon. I have heard tales of an $18.00 part ""fixes my whole car"", not in this life time, get a grip. Old wise tales are always interesting to hear, but never true.

WOW exactly what I expect from sleez mechanics

I read these reviews myself and they seemed to have really good reviews which generally are pretty accurate. They seemed to be helpful, kind and big on customer satisfaction. However my experience....

I went to their website and found that they offered a free diagnostic check, so I called up and made sure they weren`t too busy for me to come down. They said ""no,"" but they were rude and immediately hung up th... view moree phone. I should have halted there, but I have been struggling with my truck for weeks and I was frustrated, so I went to Brandon anyway. When I got there all the mechanics were sitting in the lobby on a break when I walked in they all got up and took their break in the office. I was greeted by someone, who knows his name he didn`t take the time to give a good greeting, but he said he has been there for 29 years. About 45 minutes after getting there they finally took my truck to run their diagnostic. When the guy came back he called the ""29 year"" front office guy to the back exchanged a few words he came back and said ""your transmission is dead have a good day."" and proceed back to the back office. I stood there until he came back to the front I said well dead doesn`t tell me what`s wrong I just replaced the transmission less than a year ago and I would like to know what`s wrong.... and what is an estimated cost of a fix I was told 2,000 dollars to put a rebuilt transmission in a 10 year old truck. At that point I left.

This is why I said sleez....After searching for a new transmission and quotes upset because I am like most of the people broke and of course the problems happen at the most awful times lol. I later took my truck to another shop out in Ocala Florida, someone I trusted , and he ran the same diagnostic and the only code that came up was a bad transmission coil estimated cost 20 dollars. Now my truck runs perfectly. My thing is I was hoping to find a good mechanic I could go to in Tampa area if a true problem did arise and Now I WILL NEVER GO HERE!!!!!! And on top of it they received a bad review and I will tell everyone I know not to go here. My advice if you do go here there diagnostic is free however get a second opinion because what they tell you is probably a lie.
Because mom always says ""once and liar always a liar!""

Rude

I just took my car there and they were the rudest people I have ever meet. I hate taking my cars to mechanic but I needed help with my transmission, I just wanted them to let me know what`s wrong with it. The came up with a total of $800 for a new clutch and clutch cable, when the thing only cost about 110 at the store and the cable $15. I told them no thank you and left. Well they had also decided to mess with my cl... view moreutch adjustment and now my car wouldn`t even start up at their shop. When I asked them what they did to it they yelled at me and said nothing. I called my buddy at Toyota and he came and adjusted the cable in front of me in two minutes and my car was perfect again. I knew they were lying because I had my clutch changed less than 3 months ago and my cable less than a year ago. Rude and liars, I despised waiting 30 minutes for them to ruin my car and then being yelled at. F them.
