These guys give you your money's worth. Transmissions can be tough for the customer - if a transmission has to come out of a car for a rebuild, you're looking at a couple grand, bare minimum. But Craig is clearly used to explaining the cost of these repairs to people who are not too happy to hear about them (as I was), and he very clearly delineates where each dollar is going. He worked with me to determine the right repairs that stayed within my budget. His mechanics got the work done in a reasonable timeframe and communicated with me clearly about when my car would be finished. Craig even allowed me to bring the car back after a couple weeks for a complimentary test drive, just to make sure everything was holding up fine. My car shifts more smoothly than I've ever felt in its 10-year lifespan, and that is thanks to these fine folks.
A note, however: as of July 2025, if you pay with a credit card, they do pass on a 3% surcharge to their customers. Because the cost of the repairs can run in the thousands, it can mean hundreds in extra charges. I paid in cash and had no problems, but from a convenience perspective I admit it would have been lovely to use a credit card.

I find car troubles to be super stressful, but everyone I interacted with here made the process so painless! The receptionist is so kind and personable, and Craig was incredibly helpful! He was able to get me back on the road much quicker than he originally estimated and gave me regular updates along the way! I hope I never have to deal with transmission troubles again, but if I do, I’ll absolutely be coming back here.

These guys are truly trustworthy! I had a car towed in, first time doing business there. Craig is very patient, and really understands business ethics. He got my car in and out in two days. Did the work needed to be done and nothing more! Without hesitation, I highly recommend American Transmissions, Stone Mountain.
Give him a call, you will be glad you did!

Nobody wants to take their car to the shop, but Craig and the team at America Transmission make it painless and keep you informed on the progress, even if it takes longer than quoted to get parts. Very happy with my transmission work here.

I called all the transmission places in the area and this is the only one that answered respectfully and helpfully. 5 star customer service. They are very busy so make sure you catch them on a weekday morning

5 years ago I had a slipping problem with the transmission (46RE) of my 2003 Dodge Ram Van. I brought my van to this shop fully expecting to pay for a rebuild. They advised against it. They test drove the van and suggested that fan clutch may be defective and causing the loud noise that sounds like a slipping transmission. It was a couple of hundred dollars instead of a much pricier rebuild. Right then I knew I could trust these guys.
I took the van back and it was indeed better, but I still felt like the trans was slipping a bit. I had this shop rebuild it for me as a long-term insurance against eventual failure although they thought that it was not necessary strictly speaking at the moment. 5 years later, my van is sill running great, with zero transmission issues.
Repair shops with this kind of integrity, honesty, and competence are becoming increasingly more difficult to find. I am lucky to have one so close to where I live.

SUV drives like brand new. With a 2 year or 24000 miles warranty. Up front estimate and kept informed. Money well spent.

Have had multiple conversations with Mr. Everett and his wonderful receptionist about what my options are with my broken down transmission. He couldn't have been more patient and transparent explaining and helping me decide what to do. He really gained my trust with his patience and understanding. Absolutely recommend for someone who is quite obviously doing business with integrity and not trying to rip people off.

I came to American Transmissions with some kind of rattle that I was sure was the transmission. They did a diagnostic and took a look, only to find that the transmission was fine, and the rattle was likely the catalytic converter. They recommended another shop, which turned out to be another 5 star rating! Thanks!

Mr. Craig and everyone here was so nice and easy to work with. I had lots of questions and they all took the time to answer them. They communicated clearly and set my expectations about cost and timeline appropriately. My truck had been sitting at the dealership for over a month waiting to be looked at. When the dealership finally got to my truck they quoted me a price about a third higher than American Transmission. I had the truck towed to American and not only did they look at it the next day, they had it repaired within a week. They had me come back two weeks later to double check the repair and explained the proper maintenance for maintaining my new transmission which I had no idea about. I’m so glad my friend recommended this place to me. Would go here again in a minute.

This review is long overdue. Craig replaced my transmission in my Sonata back in 2019 . He did an amazing job still going strong 💪. His price was over a thousand dollars less then what the dealership wanted to charge me. Wonderful customer service and performed the service in a timely manner. Thank you so much you are a life saver.

I was referred when my transmission went out. Craig & his team have been top notch. They were very transparent with what needed to be done & the cost. I received my van back with instructions to return in 10 days so they could do a recheck. They let me know exactly what needed to be done & let me know the cost. I didn't feel like I had been taken. I'm a woman & don't know much about transmissions. Unfortunately before the 10 days were up, I was on I20 merging to 75-85 & my transmission went. I got to the side of the road. I immediately called Craig. His 1st concern was for my safety. Then he gave me the number of tow service. My friend picked my pup & myself up & took us home. I received a call & pictures when the tow company delivered my van back to American transmission. I received a call the next day from Craig letting me know that a line came loose. My van was fixed in the next couple of days. The tow & repairs were paid by American transmission. Even though it happened I do know things happen. They jumped on the repair & took complete responsibility. The entire staff was extremely polite & professional. I highly recommend them! I even took cards to my regular mechanic who doesn't do transmissions. I was very pleased with the service.
