WHY TEMPE DRIVERS CHOOSE US

Transmission Specialists. Experienced Builders. More Repair Options.

From slipping gears and harsh shifts to electronic problems and complete transmission failure, our specialty is finding the problem and matching the repair to the vehicle—not treating every issue as a full replacement.

Before you approve a major replacement, compare your options.

Not every transmission issue requires a complete replacement. Some concerns involve fluid loss, electronic controls, valve bodies, solenoids or other components. We investigate the likely cause, explain what we can confirm without teardown, and discuss available next steps.

Get a clear explanation of the problem, possible repairs and costs so you can make an informed decision.

My transmission was having issues in my family’s 2017 Dodge Caravan, I called a few places but couldn’t really get any solid information about what could be wrong. I came across Arizona’s Reliable Transmissions and they were straight to the point, they told me what the possible issues could be and I then just dropped my van off with them for a few hours for a free external diagnostic. It was just a solenoid pack issue & they had my vehicle fixed the same day! I’m forever grateful they saved me so much time and money!

My transmission in my 2014 Dodge Ram went out. I was looking for transmission shops that would work with my extended warranty company and I came across Arizonas Reliable Transmissions. They were actually apart of the preferred network of shops for car shield so I went with them. They made the whole process very easy, all I had to do was drop my vehicle off with them and they took it from there contacting the warranty company and getting everything rolling. They kept me updated throughout the whole process and had me back in my vehicle within a week.

I have a 2018 Chevrolet Suburban that was having weird shuttering issue. I took it over to Aamco they told me I needed to have the transmission rebuilt. I took it over to Arizona’s Reliable Transmissions for a 2nd opinion, come to find out it was just a matter of a fluid exchange & a transmission computer module update. Took it in on a Monday got it back on Tuesday running perfectly. Saved me thousands of dollars. I would highly recommend

Sean and the guys do amazing work. I have trusted them for years to handle all of my transmission repairs. I'm a partner in a shop next to his but I did do mobile repair for a number of years prior and Sean at AZ reliable was always my guy

Car has been shifting hard, so I took it in to A.R.T. Very friendly staff, and they test drove it for a long while but couldn't get it to shift hard (my curse with vehicles). Since they couldn't find anything wrong with it, they said they couldn't provide a diagnosis and didn't charge me anything. I went ahead and had them do a transmission service anyway and they were quick and reasonably priced. Will be back when the shifting issue becomes more frequent.
