When it comes to experiencing the abruptness of an automatic or standard transmission failure, most people have no clue what to do. Fear enters the mind. Confusion starts to manifest itself, when in fact, all we need is some basic education. Essentially we want to put a strategy in place before we start the process of purchasing a replacement transmission. We will end the confusion right here by providing some education on the GotTransmissions.com Blog.
I’m 55 years old now and have been messing with mechanical stuff since I was three. My dad bought me a yard sale lawn mower for one dollar when I was about 4 years old. I think he got tired of me taking his apart every day!! The point is that my most developed skills are understanding and repairing mechanical things. I have owned an automotive transmission shop for 25 years, which I sold three years ago.
Another skill and secret I developed was to listen to what my customers had to tell me and what their expectations were. The most important thing I ended up doing was educating them. I found that most folks have no idea how to ask or determine what solutions are available to them. So, I would spend the amount of time deemed necessary to educate my customer in terms they understood as to what choice is in their best interests. Some customers understood in five minutes and sometimes I spent hours with showing them damaged parts and new parts and providing a thorough understanding of my recommendation. This was really one of the fun parts of running a business.
The main choices that face you are:
#1. Do I buy a used transmission?
#2. Do I buy a remanufactured, rebuilt or reconditioned transmission?
#3 Do I buy a new transmission?
A good question to ask yourself is ‘why did my transmission fail’? This is critical to know, since you don’t want an underlying problem causing another transmission failure.
These questions are rhetorical and don’t require an answer today.
