    I took my van into advanced transmission honor approximately 17 February. I had the vehicle towed over there because the owner informed me that there was no fee for diagnosis. I let the owner know that I needed a price for the insurance company. The owner inform you would be a couple days so he could give me a price and once again told me there would be no fee for diagnosis. Three days later, the insurance company could not get a hold of them. They would not send pictures, so I had to go down there takeoff work and get pictures for the insurance company. after three weeks of ******, and trying to reach them, they would not release the vehicle until a fee of $1040 was paid for the diagnosis. A pint arriving to get my vehicle. The issued me an invoice for removal and installation of the transmission. However the transmission and all the parts are boxed up and thrown in the back of the van , I never authorized any service on this vehicle whatsoever. And furthermore, they just threw everything in the back upon leaving. I told the customer service manager that I intend to pursue this and that I felt I was wrong. He stated go ahead the boss never loses even people with a lot of money, have tried and failed horrible business

    Worst experience ever! My transmission failed and I took my vehicle to Advanced to have it rebuilt. I was traveling through *******, Az. to *****. ***, the owner, gave me the old song and dance about being a traveler's friend and taking good care of us. He took us alright! He charged me $6000, and of course would not return the vehicle if it wasn't paid. When leaving the parking lot, the transmission was making a whining noise. The mechanic said it was alright and just needed to break in. The transmission was shifting very hard and I called Advanced just to be told it would be ok. Halfway to *****, it started acting up really bad, banging real hard when shifting. I was closer to home than back to Kingman so I continued. I called Advanced several times on my way and was told that it would be worked out with a shop in ***** once I got there. After getting home, *** gave me a name of a shop in ******* that I could take it to. *** said he would make everything right. The shop found that there was no second gear installed. *** refused to believe it and demanded I bring the vehicle back for him to fix it. The vehicle certainly would not make it another 1100 miles back to Kingman for repair and *** refused to pay for the repair in *****. So, I have a $6000 paperweight.
