NY1 Transmissions

First off — customer service was TOP NOTCH. I came in, described my problem (noticed a transmission leak) and Marty was super friendly and took a look. He had is guys inspect the vehicle, and called me later in the day to give me a summary of the work that needed to be done, as well as the cost. He pointed out that there was, in addition to the transmission leak, a small oil leak that probably should be addressed. He wasn’t pushy about getting the small oil leak done, which I appreciated because to me that’s the sign of an honest mechanic — one who will tell you what’s urgent and what isn’t. I’m someone who used to work on his own car a lot, so I know when a mechanic is BS-​ing me. But now I live in the city and don’t have a garage — and I can tell you, their diagnosis was fair and completely accurate.
He gave me a summary of the work order and cost for each issue and the work was done. I came in to pick up my car a few days later, and it was good as new. He took me over to the car, showed the locations of repair and summarized everything done. They even cleaned my engine bay for me! When it came time to pay, it was EXACTLY what they said it would be, no surprises. It was very reasonable in cost, and I would not hesitate at all to bring my car back there for any necessary repairs. Thanks Marty!

Oh Marty, Marty, Marty, you are my savior.
Where should I begin? Marty (the owner of the shop) is by far THE nicest and most trustworthy mechanic I have found here in the City. I moved here recently and living in the Bronx has made it easier for me to have my car with me. Unfortunately for me, I started having issues with my ’02 Camry; slipping gears and a check engine light. Knowing a thing or two about cars, I was pretty sure it was a sign of transmission problems. I also knew that making it back to Rhode Island to get to my family mechanic wasn’t happening.
Being a female with out-​of-​state license plates, I wasn’t about to bring CamCam to just anyone. Like Autumn said below, I didn’t want to be taken advantage of regarding prices and unnecessary work. Two months of researching mechanics in my area, I kept coming across NY1 Transmissions. After reading the reviews and looking at pictures provided here on Unilocal,I decided to give Marty a call. Boy am I happy I did.
After briefly explaining to Marty the issues I was having, he told me to get my car towed to him (I have AAA or else I would have used his tow service) so he could take a look at it. Luckily for me, Marty is available 24 hours (LITERALLY) so I was able to get it there on a Wednesday evening after work. By Thursday morning, I had a phone call explaining I needed a transmission rebuild. After freaking out momentarily (to myself) because I knew how expensive transmissions can be and if it was too expensive my parents would just junk the car, Marty gave me his price and I couldn’t believe how fair it was.
After giving him the approval to go ahead and fix the car, not even a week went by when I got another phone call from him letting me know the car would be done in 20 minutes. I couldn’t believe how fast they got it done! Normally he stays until 6:30pm but he waited a few extra minutes for me to get there to pick it up the next night. He printed out his warranty information (1 year or 12,000 miles whatever you hit first) and also let me know any other little issues he found which really came in handy since I have to get my car inspected soon. Any questions I had he was more than happy to answer for me.
All-​in-​all I will definitely be going back to NY1 Transmissions for my car needs. Thanks so much Marty for being awesome!

My go to shop from now on as they do far more work than tranmissions. I have sudden transmission problems and literally had problems driving up one block without my car stalling. After getting quotes from 3 shops who quoted me astronomical prices without doing a proper diagnostic test, I stopped with little hope left at NY1 Transmission. I really feel that a higher power led me here because from the door I was greeted in a very friendly manner by Marty.
Before quoting me he took the car for a test run and then ran a diagnostics test on the vehicle.
Marty is the old school kind of car repairman, the kind who has a passion for cars and actually has compassion for people and understands how expensive car repairs can be therefore, he has an interest to lessen you of your burdens than he does to rip you off. Understanding that customers come back when they are well taken care of. That’s Marty and that’s everyone he has working for him at this transmission spot. Top Notch Quality Care.
He quoted me 1100 cheaper! than the other rip off spots who obviously had more interest in taking advantage of a female who they think doesn’t know any better.
Marty fixed my car within 2 days as promised. Not like other shops who tell you 2 days and the 2 days roll into 10 days. I got a NEW transmission no used parts, with a year warranty. I will certainly be back for other jobs that I need done, quality service and products what more can you ask for.
They have customers who come from all over. When I was there getting my car problem diagnosed, there was a couple there from Westchester NY who only goes to Marty.
If you are hesitant don’t be. They also have many videos on you tube of the work that they do so you can rest assure that you are dealing with professionals.

Went to Aamco in queens horrible after searching on-​line came across Tri-​state spoke to Marty not only did he towed my car for free he gave me a quote half of what aamco offed, top of that aamco in queens sold me bad solenoids Marty changed them all for no extra labor… you guys are awesome and definitely worth shouting out in Unilocal
