Transmission Repair in Fairfield, CT

“Great experience. Great communication. There are not a lot of places left that can and will work on classic cars. Fairfield Motorworks took care of my problems and explained everything else I needed. I will
Continue to bring all my vehicles there and will not hesitate to refer them to anyone.”

“I was visiting from Florida when my 2010 F150’s small coolant leak (something I’d been managing for almost a year with occasional top-offs) suddenly got much worse in subfreezing Connecticut weather. Being 1,200 miles from home, I was worried about getting taken advantage of by an unfamiliar shop — especially with the holidays and a hard deadline to drive back to Florida.

Summit Auto Repair diagnosed the issue quickly and explained the repair clearly. This was a labor-intensive job — intake removal, crossover pipe, seals, and gaskets — and their shop was packed right in the middle of New Year’s week. Even so, they triaged my situation, worked me into the schedule, and respected the urgency of my travel plans.

They quoted a fair price, almost identical to what my trusted shop in Florida estimated. Once they had the intake off, they confirmed mine was still true and did not replace it — resulting in a final bill $400 under the estimate. They could have put in a new intake and I never would’ve questioned it, but they chose honesty instead. The owner even showed me the failed parts afterward.

Since the repair, I’ve driven about 1,800 miles — CT to FL, a show weekend in South Florida, and local driving — with zero leaks and zero issues.

Summit Auto Repair did excellent work under pressure, treated me fairly, and earned my trust. I now have a shop I can count on when I’m back in Fairfield. Forever grateful.”

“These guys have many years of experience. I've know Scott and Steve for over 30 years. I worked there for Scott's dad Bob many years ago. They are extremely trustworthy and know their stuff. I highly recommend them.”
