Years of Experience


Transmission problems are easy to misdiagnose and expensive to get wrong. Our technicians specialize in exactly this kind of work, so you get an accurate diagnosis, a fair price, and a repair that lasts — without the dealership markup.
Don’t wait for a small leak or a rough shift to become a full breakdown. Our team catches transmission issues early — saving you time, money, and headaches down the road.
From a diagnostic light you can’t ignore to a full transmission rebuild, our NAPA-certified technicians handle it with honesty, transparency, and fair pricing.
Not sure what's wrong? Our technicians pinpoint the exact issue before recommending any repair — no guesswork, no unnecessary work.
When a rebuild is the right call, we do it in-house with quality parts and decades of hands-on experience.
A small leak can lead to a big repair bill. We fix cooler lines and seals fast, before the damage spreads.
Your transmission isn't the only thing that needs to work right. We keep your brakes safe and reliable too.
One shop for everything — oil changes, tune-ups, and the routine care that keeps small issues from becoming big ones.
Business vehicles can't afford downtime. We work with local fleets to keep them on the road.

We’re not a chain and we’re not a dealership — we’re a family-owned shop that’s been part of this community since 2004. That means real accountability, real relationships, and technicians who explain what’s actually wrong with your car before they touch it.

More then fair on the prices and very knowledgeable on all vehiclesPosted on Google Phu VanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great experience with honest mechanics. They quoted my repair at half the cost of what the dealership quoted me. Theyrepaired it in a couple hours and now my car works perfectly. Thank you Jerimy and Patrick. Y'all have a customer for life.Posted on Google John RobinsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Needed work done on my 54 chevy pickup. Jack Dempsey and his son's Patrick, Tony and Jeremy took excellent care of my vehicle. They replaced my 350 with an LS. Jack removed the old transmission and built a solid 4L80E. Truck runs like a beast. The guys are Very Honest, Personable and treat you like family. They do a great job and always up front. Prices are great. If you have an issue, they'll look into it right away. If you need work done, don't hesitate to see Jack at Alternative Transmissions...Posted on Google Igor EscribanoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

It’s not every day that you find a shop as trustworthy and efficient as this. After a horrible run of mechanics, it’s a relief to find a place I can depend on now whenever I run into car trouble. Jerimy was incredibly patient and flexible, and helped us find the most cost effective way to solve our problem without cutting any corners along the way. Took them less than a day to get our transmission swapped and it runs amazing now. Really can’t ask for much more, peak customer service from the moment we entered the door. We will 100% be back!Posted on Google AARON BUNTONTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Old school shop, honest up front pricing and they won’t sell you something you don’t need!Posted on Google Asha ChettayarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Car trouble is my absolute least favorite issue to deal with, it is so stressful and overwhelming especially when you don’t know much about cars. I was told by another mechanic shop that my transmission needed to be replaced. It didn’t feel right to me… but then again, I don’t know anything about cars.. I took it into Alternative Transmissions and Jeremy and the team looked at my vehicle, even test drove it, he told me there was absolutely nothing wrong with my transmission. Im so grateful to them for their honesty and kindness. They made me feel safe and that is exactly the energy you need when trying to deal with car troubles. Highly recommend them and will be back for any future needsVerified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
