I came in on a day when the mechanic was sick, and I still got a little of the help I needed! My bumper came off the frame and it was popped back on, all while refusing a tip! This place has charm and is worth visiting at least once to meet the kind staff.

I showed up without an appointment at about 10 am on a Saturday morning. Within three hours, I had all brakes and rotors replaced, a spare tire replaced, and the rim put on. The cost was very reasonable for the services provided and the quality of work. This is my third time having work done at Tran’s Auto Service, and each time the quality of work and reasonable prices help to restore my faith in auto mechanics. I would highly recommend coming here to have your automotive needs met.

Dropped in without a specific appointment to repair a short section of exhaust pipe that had disconnected due to rust. They were able to weld a repair for me at a fair price and I was on my way in just 40 minutes! Thanks!

Because they couldnt help me they waved me diagnostic fee. Theyve been working on my vehicle for years. Great work! Far better than Dunhams.

I got nothing but kudos for these guys. Excellent job done, especially when I took my Toyota Tundra to 2 other places who tried to charge me three times what they did. The fault in my vehicle finally stopped after three years of taking it around different auto shops including Firestone. These guys are not just technicians who just replace parts, they know what theyre doing. Yes, in every business youll find people unsatisfied for different reasons and circumstances, but take a look to the majority of satisfied customers giving the 5 stars rates. Im recommending a lot of coworkers and friends for the simple fact I trust these guys.

Trans Auto is awesome! The staff has always been honest with me concerning my auto issues and always treat me with respect. I tell everyone I know who need auto work about them. Its hard to find a good, honest mechanic; I’m glad I found these guys. Keep up the good work!

I highly recommend this place. They service my Cadillac Escalade truck for all its maintenance needs. They are fair w/their pricing. Plus I have found them to be honest, which unfortunately is a rare commodity amount this profession. I just had some work done to which another shop quoted the work at the high end of $800. Trans did it for under $500. PLUS they really do aim to please their customers.

I was on my way to a first date, my car started making a terrible sound. I called ahead to ask if they could take me because it was getting close to closing time. They fixed the car no problem- I was even able to make the date. So thankful!

Dont trust your vehicle with these ppl. Especially women. Just being honest. I went and got an oil change..first time $31, last time it was $35. They did not change my filter! And STRIPPED my oil plug bolt/nut. Had to have the shop across the street (Manyo five star service) they gave me peace of mind.

Kevin and crew went out of their way for me after my car lost all of its oil last night. Their graciousness and service was exceptional! I cannot say thank you enough! I will definitely spread the word about your integrity and workmanship.

I’ve always had good experiences at Tran’s Auto. I used to take my car here when I lived in Milwaukee and always found good and honest service. As girl, I’ve never felt like they were condescending or trying to take advantage of me like I’ve experienced at other places (in fact, I found them after O’Reilly’s Motor downtown had taken me for a fool for the third time). This year, I was home for the holidays and took my car here once again and received the same great service I had in the past.

Listen to those one star reviews. They kept my car for three days and couldn’t do the work. Instead of saying they couldn’t do the work they want to charge for work they didn’t do. Pay attention to crooks like these they only come in areas where they can mistreat people. Your customer is your biggest asset and when you treat people unfairly you lose standards.My problem is they did the work on my vehicle and sent me on my way. When I left my vehicle still had an engine light on and no fuel gauge working. They told me I had no gas to make sure I immediately put gas in. When I put the gas in my engine light came back on, as well as the fuel gauge was still not showing how much gas I had. I called them they said bring it in they would contact me with the details for another part in the morning because there is a sensor that had blown out during installation. They called me saying fuel pump was defective and it would be another two/three days to get it back. I questioned that and he refused to fix the work they did and offered a refund minus fee for looking at the vehicle. Question? When has someone been recharged for work they havent done? If there was a manufacturer default and they couldnt fix it why not just refund all my money. This was the first and last time I will ever take my vehicle to a place like this. The transaction was done when they couldnt fix the problem. I should have just been refunded my money and sent on my way.

Excellent service. Im fairly new to the Milwaukee area and had a cracked rim. I needed my new rim mounted and balanced and was turned away from several other places (or told to come back tomorrow) for just one rim. These guys took care of me the same day with no issues.

I had my car towed to transauto and it was there for four months, I couldnt afford to have it fixed so the Owner threw my keys away or lost them. I find it hard to believe that a Professional business would do this to a Customer...I Contacted the BBB,and found out that im not the first to get screwed over by Kevin the Owner of Transauto, now I have to get contact six Involved as well...

Review №29

As with all relationships some people get along and some dont. Being a long haul trucker with 4.5 million miles of driving experience and a mechanical background Ive never had a problem with these guys from brake jobs to transmission work. But you CANNOT show up at a business and expect anything to be done for FREE, it doesnt happen in the USA. If they can service a Beamer, Benz and Chevy in the same shop they arent stupid or cheap. But if youre someone with no mechanical knowledge everytime you take a car in for service youre going to feel people are ripping you off. Car ownership is NOT cheap and if you buy an old, cheap car expect big repair bills.

I would rate zero stars if I could. Stay away from these crooks. My niece took her vehicle there to have her tranny looked over just as a general inspection. There was a discrepancy on the cost of diagnostics which wasnt performed to the tune of 40 dollars which wasnt previously agreed upon prior to her leaving the vehicle only when she decided she didnt want a full diagnostic or to work on the vehicle further did this price come about. These guys couldnt produce paperwork verifying the codes they claimed to have scanned, or come up with a problem with the trans other than saying they checked the fluid to see if it was empty. Long story short she had to call the cops because they were holding her vehicle until the 40 was paid. Once the cops got involved they released it immediately. This type of shady business (if I dare call it that) should be limited a back alley. I wouldnt recommend this place if your car broke down right in front of it.

They take advange of woman....went there to get brake pads put on my car....they called me later on that day to tell me that my back calipers were seized and they could not put new brake pads on so I had to get new caliphets...I told the person who called to just put my old one back on because I could not afford new calipers.... he told me he couldnt and that I HAD to get calipers but he wouldnt know the price until the next morning, so I sad well dont do front brake Ill just get the back done.....He called me the next morning and told me that the calipers would be roughly $500 a piece, I said no way could I afford that so he then says ok well put old brakes back on ( thought you said you couldnt do that)....So I said well just do front brakes to then he says well you still have to pay the $ 90 for the back brakes also..WHAAAT???.....I said never mind im coming to get my damn car....I gor there and the were made me pay them for taking my tires off and putting them back on basically in order to get my car back....I will bever ever do business with them again
