i got my transmissin fixed on my pick up truck , they charged me $2100.00 an I was very happy with the job until now, i went back with the same issue and I was told that I need to fix the transmission again , The sad part is that i do not abuse my truck and i have to fix it again , i was told that the cost will be between $2100.00 to $ 2300 for the same issue that it was fixed, They're nice people but i dont think is fair to pay again for the same issue

This is a follow up on my transmission work done by Hamden Transmission. The eight month old rebuilt transmission lost reverse. There was an $1800 fee offered to repair the reverse by Hamden Transmission which I declined. After researching the internet I found the fix . The actuation rod that tightens up the reverse band can wear down and become to short for the braking band to stop the reverser drum from turning . When the reversing drum is stopped the power goes through the planetary gears to provide reverse. I learned all this by study last week on the internet. The owner of Hamden Transmission flat out told me the the reverse band was broken and that the transmission had to be removed and completely taken apart. That would be true if the reverse band was broken. The reverse band was not broken and the problem was that the actuator rod was not properly measured during assembly. At least that is what I figured out happened because now the the transmission works normally in all gears including reverse. This actuator rod lengthening was accomplished with the transmission in the truck. I bought a GM new actuator rod from GM for twenty dollars plus shipping that was a little longer and new and not worn down. and that is all the money I had to spend. Through careful research we found that all that was needed to do to install the new actuator rod was to remove the oil pan of the transmissions and there was a special technique to install the new actuator rod without removing the valve body of the transmission. Perhaps a three hour job. I have a reputation for honesty and as demonstrated in my original Yelp complaint for shoddy service at Hamden Transmission, I was expecting better from a man known for competent and honest work All this begs the question.. how come a a guy with no special skills can fix this problem for (really!) 20 dollars in parts and an afternoons labor and Hamden Transmission wants $1800? Draw your own conclusions. And he was very mean and ugly about it.

I had a good relationship with them. They rebuilt my Lincoln Navigator Transmission. I never had any more problems. I'd go to them again, if that doesn't convince you; they do free Diagnostics.

My visit to Hamden transmission was for information purposes at the time, I find that they are a small business and they pay attention to customers needs and detail to the jobs at hand. I have a transmission issue and of all the shops that I have talk to I'm leaning towards giving Hamden transmission center my business
