York Transmissions

This place was amazing and friendly place. A couple years ago, we couldn't afford a new transmission (2014 Acadia) and found this place still rebuilds. A little after our 12 month warranty, we noticed a slight shudder and they still replaced converter though it was out of warranty. After another year, our flex plate became damaged due to a failing starter and they were able to help us out and even gave us a super price to replace. I will continue to recommend York Transmission to anyone.

My transmission crapped out on us half way through the bay bridge headed to Delaware. I spent a couple days doing research and I came across York Transmission. Mind you I live in MD, the guys here at York Transmission are HONEST, they are professionals at their craft. They kept me updated throughout the whole process and even showed me what went wrong and what they were doing to fix the problem. They even upgraded some of the parts since the ones from GM are junk.I couldn’t be more thankful for them, especially when I felt like all the shops around me here in MD were cash grabs. If you’re in need of a GREAT TRANSMISSION SHOP to rebuild your tranny LOOK NO FURTHER… Jackson you’re the man dude !!!

I had my 2016 Hyundai ELANTRA towed there on a Sunday. Monday I called to see what the protocol was since I’ve never been through anything like this before and she said that they would get back with me that day, which never happened. The next several days I would call to ask what the status was and she would just say they didn’t get to it yet come to find out she’s told me days later ( over a week) that the code machine was not Working. She said sternly that she would call me, but she didn’t call me. I would call On a daily to get an update. Finally after a week and a half I call there and she said they ordered a transmission. They ordered a USED transmission that I did not approve of. Not a rebuilt transmission, a used transmission. She never told me it was a used transmission. She gave me a quote over the phone which was different than what i had paid. I feel like the information was not clear to me and I was over charged for a used transmission. The company I work for also has a garage and I talked to two mechanics there and they said it was way too much for a used transmission as well. almost $4000.00 for a used transmission doesn’t seem right.

Please read my story: York Transmissions is one of the only honest auto mechanic garages I've ever been to! **2014 Ford Focus SE** with Dual Shift Transmission owner here from Maryland. While driving on Route 74-PA from MD, my car stopped functioning normally: the engine was revving very high RPMs, but there was no response from the drive train (transmission) of the car. I made it to Red Lion, PA before getting a message that the transmission was overheating and to stop the car safely- it appeared on the little dashboard screen right above the steering wheel. I shut the car off and spent an hour or so waiting only to discover my car wouldn't start: the battery was more than likely dead from the recent December cold snap. I managed to restart the engine after 10-15 attempts and wiggling the battery + terminal wires, and a check engine light appeared. With the transmission shuddering and hard shifting, I made it to an AutoZone in York, PA, where I had a code reader give me the check engine error, and the store clerk informed me with an informational printout that I not only had a bad battery, but (!) my transmission clutch B gears were stuck engaged! With a new battery installed, I somehow made it to York Transmissions, parked it - without the ability to reverse the car which I found out in their parking lot (!), and left my car there overnight with an apology note for my park job. I spoke with the owner, Jackson, in the morning about my car situation and he immediately impressed me with his in-depth knowledge of Ford Dual Shift transmissions and his genuine and personable demeanor. He contacted me back promptly after inspecting my car, told me he reset the clutch actuators, test drove my car a few times to ensure it was running properly, and that there would be no service charge. He wished me a happy holiday. Transmissions aren't cheap: next to an engine repair, they're one of the most expensive items to replace in a car. Not only is money tight - and I communicated I'd definitely need a bank loan to pay for extensive transmission/clutch/TCM replacement, but it's a week before Christmas. Jackson and York Transmissions were honest and treated me with integrity. Where do you get that level of humanity or service these days? I highly recommend this garage, and if I ever need transmission work, I know I can trust Jackson and his team with my vehicle. Trust is priceless; being honest and kind costs nothing. This garage has integrity in spades. Thanks y'all for reading!

First let me say that the service here is phenomenal and they are not in business to rip anyone off. That being said, these people are very professional and knowledgeable about transmission rebuilding. I have had 3 cars serviced here over the years and I have been completely satisfied with the service and results of their work. The first car (Cadillac CTS) trans got smoked by a faulty transmission cooler in the radiator. Second car (Ford Focus) , transmission threw a part thru the case, so I purchased a used transmission with 60k on it and had them install it. The third car is an Infiniti Q70 AWD and the internal transmission cooler inside the radiator was being contaminated by coolant. I retained their services yet again and they do not disappoint. Just picked the vehicle up yesterday and all is well so far. Great job guys and thanks for hooking me up yet again! Highly recommend this business, and if you choose to retain their services, you must realize that transmissions are complicated mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic systems, and to give them ample time to complete the repairs on your vehicle. Also remember that respect gets you respect, so be nice!
