Very helpful and very affordable last service for my car I had a broken oil pan back in November 2024 and replaced within a few weeks my car still running smoothly to this day :)
Took in my Chevy truck to have it looked at. Guy is an honest professional about the work that will need to be done. He doesn't beat around the bush and make up issues. He stands by his work. He is easy to work with. I will be recommending him for any future work.
I had a transmission replaced and the mechanic that was doing the job had ripped the threads out of my starter bolt holes on my engine block. Being unaware, I then drove the vehicle all the way to Houston only for my starter to fall off and leave me stranded. Upon inspection of the starter bolt holes there was rtv and a zip tie lodged into the holes.... the mechanic then confessed and said that he couldn't find the correct bolts and that was his solution. The owner didn't seem to care much and I was still left with the bill. STAY AWAY FROM THIS UNPROFESSIONAL BUSINESS.
I wish I would never have taken my vehicle 2 general automatic transmission
Owners have had trouble with their mechanics. Either they quit or get fired.
no one there is reliable
no one there can communicate . Lack of skills . Lack of priorities
Family first.. customer second. Someone please just open the gate and let me get my car.
Bad place to get your vehicle fixed. My friends car has been back for the same problem 3 times. They have had it more than he has driven it. And paid 3,000.00 and it still doesn't work right.
Ward provided alot of information about the situation of my vehicle's transmission. This made me feel comfortable enough to proceed with the repair. He was very kind and professional.
Please!!! Don't waste your time or money at this place, so called transmission shop. They took $689 for nothing. I went to them for a second option and it cost me more. Dishonest they didn't have the tools to fix my car and still charge me not to fix it!!
Called them told them what my daughters car was doing It drives a little then won’t go . They said they would pick up vehicle n do a free check and let me know problem just for them to just call me and tell me the same thing I told them it was doing and tell me if I want them to take transmission off it would be 600 but don’t know price of repair and I would have to pay 600 automatically but repair price was unknown. I tell them I would just go get vehicle get there and they tell me i have to pay 85 for towing I live three blocks away I could have took it myself 🤦♀️ They did not tell me anything at first About no $85 They got me alright never will do business with them.. Horrible
Thank you to General automatic transmission excellent work my car runs excellent very professional gentleman explain to me everything had my car within a couple of days haven't had a problem since being disabled and having an honest people is a plus I recommend then to anybody very appreciated thank you very much
I have used their service for transmission work and they have been fair and very informative about what is going to be done to my transmission. I would recommend them to my family and friends. I have ask for advice from them and they are always very helpful.
I took my friend to Corpus Christi to pick up her medicines at the base since she doesn’t
drive out of town. I had an accident with a yellow concrete barrier and thought that I had damaged my radiator since the stranger that helped me get my car unstuck said that it was leaking. My friend and I are both from out of town and wasn’t sure where to go. We found General AutomaticTransmission. They put my car up on the rack to check for the leak
and thank God they didn’t find one. They even test drove it to make sure that my car was safe to drive back home, since we were over an hour away from home. They were very kind and professional, even though I was an emotional wreck. They didn’t try to take advantage of us even though we are both women, like some places would do. I would highly recommend these people and their company. My friend and I thank God that we found these honest and kind people. Thank you so much General Automatic Transmission.
Took my car into the shop thought I had major transmission problems found out all I needed was a new throttle assembly Jeff manager really helped me out any other shop would’ve taken advantage of me because I am a woman and he informed me that I had an injury related issue that was making me think it was a transmission repaired my throttle assembly delay fuel injection service and Wala car was fixed thanks general automatic transmission for helping me fix my car in a time of need and not take me for a ride great price great service
NOTE: Account was fixed and money reimbursed by company. Lisa contacted me and all was explained and she contacted company, she was very professional about it.
My grandson took his truck and it was never touched for over a month if not more. It was excuse after excuse. I got on an easy pay plan with a company and they submitted to them that they worked on truck when it was never touched. Snap has been trying to get a hold of them and they don't answer to see why they submitted over a thousand dollars in work. This is fraud . Lisa was the person that was told truck was being picked up and not to work on truck. And it was picked up and removed from their property and taken elsewhere.
.
Awful customer service from the owner's wife Lisa. She was disrespectful and rude to customers. She has no knowledge of vehicles and belongs no where near this shop. I would not recommend this family owned business to anyone. I would give it no stars if possible.
Had a great experience with Josh Lomas he took care of all my issues and a little more. Kept in touch with me the whole way. Thanks for everything Josh.
I've been dealing with general automatic transmission for at least 20 years honest people that the only place you should take your transmission to have repairs down to it keep up the good work and be safe out there
Badass place. This is my Go-To Transmission and repair shop. Guys are friendly and awesome, great work, labor can be pricy but there are different repairs that get the same job done cheaper and these guys will tell you about and do it. Love this place.
Great staff!!! Great prices and honest and I mean “super honest” work!!!! I wouldn’t take my car anywhere else in the Corpus Christi area. Steve showed and explained everything to me about my car. Well done!!! Thankyou to the staff at General Automatic Transmission!!
First time there!
I went to have my transmission fluid changed, great service and friendly guy (approachable) .
If I am in town and need my transmission fluid changed again, I will be going back!
Thanks again for your service G.A.T.
Bad customer service wouldn't let anyone fix my car here unless they take drug test on the mechanic and manager especially. . how would you like having your car or truck worked on a contract employs. mechanic. Bad shop. I would never have my car fixed .Or recommend and I will let all my friends know. And no so habla Espanol. Probably only mechanic does but manager doesn't. Don't go there
Went there to get transmission fluid change on my ford expedition . It has a sealed system. Some guy there told me it would cost $575 just to "drop" the unit for repairs. I told him all I wanted was a fluid change because it was due for maintenance and was affecting the shifting performance.
I left and took it to the ford dealership and had the job done for $210. The shifting problem was solved.
Do not take your car here. Charged 2,300 to fix transmission and broke more than they fixed. They said free quote and then refused to give me my car back unless I paid $500. So I was forced to take their price of 2,300 for a car that I paid 1, 500 for. They broke a cable to my shifting and told me that they were not responsible because the car was older. The transmission still was never fixed right and still has issues that it had before I took it in.
My family has always used this place. My first time personally and had a great experience. Great service and customer interaction. Had some questions and mechanic answered everything. Definitely recommend this place. Oh and great prices.
Worst place to get your automobile fixed. They charged me for a transmission overhaul, $2,300. They never fixed the problem, and refused to give me back my money. I brought my truck in 3 times for the same problem. Each time, they kept my truck for 6 weeks. When I got my truck back I noticed the bed liner was all scratched up, and oil in the bed. Proof that they used my truck for hauling parts. The third time I took the truck back, I was arguing with the son, who is supposed to be the new owner. That is when the father came out and told me to take the truck to a brake shop, to get it looked at. That was the problem with the truck, the whole time. Fixed the brakes, and fixed the problem.
Great people good work fair price. I you need help with your transmission and are traveling through or live in Corpus Christi I strongly recommend General Automatic Transmission. We got a free tow and were treated great!
Go somewhere else! These people are scam artist. I took my vehicle in for a shifting problem. They told me it needs an overhaul, they took 8 months had to threaten them so they could finish it. The problem wasn't fixed. The transmission almost fell out the next day. They towed it back, the next day the transmission leaked all its oil. The third time I went in I had to tell them off after telling me it was ready, I looked under the vehicle and the bolts on the pan were all loose. The company i work with also had a vehicle there and they went through the same thing, the fly wheel was left loose and they almost burned the transmission. I noticed every person that was calling was told they needed an overhaul. I give them -10 stars!
