  • Starts driving in higher gears

A COOL TRANSMISSION IS A HAPPY TRANSMISSION

An automatic transmission works much harder and runs hotter when towing heavy loads or driving in extreme conditions. Extreme heat is dangerous to your transmission. If you regularly drive in these conditions, you may want to consider having us add transmission cooler to your vehicle. For regular driving conditions, keeping your transmission fluid fresh is the best preventative to transmission failure. The older the transmission fluid, the thinner it is and the less likely it can efficiently keep your transmission cool. Contact us today to discuss your transmission and we can recommend the right service for you.

REPAIR OR REPLACE?

If your transmission has failed, the next step is to remove and disassemble it and inspect the components to find out exactly what caused your transmission to fail. We call this process an R.D.I.. Since every vehicle is specific for how much time this process takes, we’ll give you the price up front before we start!

Next, we’ll give you a quote to repair/rebuild your transmission with the different warranty options. Depending on the issue, it may be more cost effective to replace your transmission with a remanufactured or low-mileage used transmission. We’ll lay it all out for you so that you can make the best decision for you and your situation!

MAINTENANCE

Regular maintenance on your transmission can help extend its life and keep you from costly repairs. We recommend that you change the filter, fluid and pan gasket once a year or every 12,000 miles. If your transmission doesn’t have a pan we can drain it and fill it with new oil. Another great way to keep your transmission going strong is a friction modifier additive called Lubeguard. It helps keep your transmission up to 40 degrees cooler and optimizes transmission performance!

CLUTCHES, 4X4’s & MORE

The transmission is not the only part we are certified to replace! We specialize in clutches, transfercases, differentials, drivelines, C.V. axles, and U-joints..

We also service transfercases, fron and rear differentials, and engine oil.

Amazing service! My car has been having a lot of issues, and the team down at Action Transmissions has been great to work with in fixing it up. Had a full transmission rebuild and some other bad parts diagnosed and replaced. Communication is quick and clear, vehicle servicing is speedy, the staff have always been friendly, and most importantly, they actually listen to what I have to say about my vehicle. 10/10 repair shop, would definitely recommend AC to anyone whose car is in need of a transmission tune up~

Couldn't have been happier with the customer service. On delivery of my snow plow pick up, made the repairs and worked with me every step of the way. Can't think of any way they could have done more. Well done!

I've had several visits to Action Transmissions since the end of August when I was introduced to their services (and I live in Salt Lake County). They have taken great care of both me and my truck and its many issues, which includes a transmission replacement. Their customer service is over the top! Highly recommend; well worth the many miles driven. #taketwo 🙂

Very nice Employees, Have me a rundown of pricing, and options. Needed something from car and they aloud me to get it when vehicle was already in shop. Vehicle runs smoothly and have a warranty on it which puts mind at ease.

I had a old 1978 suburban that I got the engine running only to find the transmission not working. My friend helped me tow it to action after talking with Joe. I told him if it was much over the diagnosis fee I would probably scrap it. The diagnosis after a complete tear down showed the burnt up parts.Between it and the drive shaft it was more than I wanted to invest. I ask that they send it to scrap metal to pay diagnosis cost.I just got off the phone and they said Merry Christmas their staff decided to pay the parts and labor for free to me.I am overwhelmed by their generosity.I know they are good people worthy of your trust.Please consider them for your work...SincerelyAnthony Coulon

When our 2017 Hyundai Tucson’s dual-clutch transmission failed at 125k miles, the stress of the dealership's ever-changing price quotes left us searching for a better option. After exploring five different shops, we were fortunate to find Joe, Rosalyn, and Stephanie at Action Transmissions in Provo. From the start, they went above and beyond, coordinating to tow our car to their shop at a discounted rate and ultimately saving us over $600. Their communication, dedication, and competitive pricing made all the difference. Action Transmissions truly offers the best service, price, and warranty in town. Highly recommend!

Action transmission is awesome. Stephanie, Joe, and especially Lyle who did the work. We broke down on I15 and were towed to Action and they went out of their way to accommodate us as we still had 800 miles to get home. They expedited the parts and were very friendly, hospitable, and knowledgeable in diagnosing our problems. Highly, highly recommend them!

Great service. I’m from Ukraine and it’s the best car service I found in Provo by far. My headlight didn’t work. Lyle and Joe reacted immediately and problem was solved in 10 minutes after arrival without any lines or long waiting. Absolutely recommend!!

My experience at this shop was 10/10! Stephanie was so kind and helpful and great communication from drop off to pick up. I got a transmission replacement at an affordable rate compared to the dealership and other local shops in UT county & my repair took 1 day and was ready for pickup. Would highly recommend this place to friends and family!

I have a truck with a 4L60E transmission, so of course it went out at 180k miles. I've used these guys for years and they have been fantastic. They had very quickly found that the pump went out and also damaged other components, so it needed to be rebuilt or replaced. They gave me multiple options from $1,200-$4,500. I do lots of towing, so I went with the best option with the longest warranty. I've had it for 2 years now with lots of towing and haven't had a single problem with it. I highly recommend these guys for any transmission work. It may cost a little more than other shops, but they get it done right.

Had them do preventative maintenance on my truck transmission with a fluid change and filter replacement. Truck is shifting smoother, like it did when new (currently has 62k miles).They turned it around quick and were priced very competitive compared to other shops. I’m happy with the work!

I was very pleased with the service I received at Action Transmission. I had my car towed there on a Sunday. They contacted me on Monday. I explained the problem. They gave me an estimate on Tuesday. I was kept informed of the progress on my car and I had my car back on Friday. The staff at Action Transmission were friendly and very helpful. I will recommend this company to others

My car started to feel off during my stay in Utah. As we were preparing to leave the next day cross country, I realized that it may be more serious then I thought as it became much worse.I brought my car in and Joe upon hearing my situation got my car in immediately to get it diagnosed. He came back with not great news however he delivered it with a lot of empathy and was light hearted which was very helpful considering my circumstances.He gave me serval options of what I could do and walked me through all of them. He showed great concern for my family that would be traveling in my car and wanted to make sure that we got back to our destination safe upon my decision of what to do with my car.He helped make an extremely tough situation and did whatever he could to make it easier for me and on top of that showed concern for my families safety.Highly recommend!

We needed our transmission rebuilt and called multiple places to get price comparisons and diagnostics. Action was by far the most reasonably priced and transparent in their recommendations, and Mike was super on top of communicating and keeping us up to date with their findings on the truck. Great experience!

This was my second transmission repair. The work on my truck was amazing- Action did in a week (over Labor Day weekend) what another shop hadn't been able to get to in three weeks. When my car needed help, I came back. Mike Kendall took care of me from first to last, even when it meant taking time from his family vacation. I have appreciated the no-pressure discussion of what they found and what they suggested might be done. Both jobs were done on time and at- or under- what they quoted. Highly recommended!

Stephanie was very helpful and great to work with!Daniel has quickly become a trusted mechanic which can be difficult to find in today’s world! He went out of his way to explain the diagnosis on our transmission and come up with an affordable fix and plan going forward to monitor it.We couldn’t be happier to have found this great shop!

I highly recommend Action Transmissions. They were patient, very communicative, and honest. They are also very transparent about what they see on your vehicle. Action not only sent me pictures of what the inside of my transmission pan looked like, they also sent me pictures of the code that was being thrown by my truck. It's really easy for a shop to tell you you're going to need a new transmission, and you're none the wiser. While I understand sometimes you just need a new transmission, it's nice to know that in a case like mine, if it's just a $100 dollar part, Action will tell you as much, and get you in and out quickly. My "new to me" 20 year old truck is shifting great now. 10/10 would recommend.

Action offered many options for my unfortunate issues with my transmission. They even offered a good financing option. Once the transmission came they had it working in one day. They also worked with me to pick it up over the weekend overall, Stephanie made the experience great by her quick communication throughout the days. Thank you for getting me back on the road as quick as possible.

The technician, Lyle, was fantastic. He worked very hard to find and solve a difficult problem with my transmission computer. Labor costs were worth it.Stephanie was also amazing! Great customer service and she cares about customers.

In looking for a place to get our transmission replaced, I was looking for the best price and a confirmation that they were competent. The price was the best I found and their customer service, frequency of communication and availability were a huge bonus. We haven't driven the car much since, so the jury is still out on quality of work, but great so far. They were also very kind and did a couple of other things to the car that we needed while it was there, things that I expected them to say no to (non-transmission stuff), but they happily did them. Given our experience, I highly recommend them.

Amazing service and amazing. Return calls within one day.They gave me an awesome warranty on my rear axle on my Subaru ascent 2020They work with people really well it’s really rare that there is actually a mechanic shop that can’t be trusted especially in these times and I highly recommend this shop. I’m so happy with them. I have a few more vehicles for them to work on and I will be giving my future service to these amazing people, patriots are hard to come bye I’ll be leaving a picture with me with a thumbs up so you guys know that this is not a made up review

One day after my old truck started making bad scraping noises, Jon brought me the news that nobody wants to hear - that I needed a transmission rebuild. However, I wouldn't hesitate to bring my truck back to Action Transmission with their level of expertise. They were able to rebuild the transmission in my 1995 f150 and completely diagnose/repair the cause of the transmission failure in about 2 weeks, even finding parts to fit my nearly 30 year old vehicle. Despite my persistent (and probably annoying) calls for updates, they were patient, kept me in the loop, and talked me through exactly what needed to happen. My truck now runs better than the day I bought it. Thanks Jon and Action Transmission for what now runs like a brand new truck!
