"Our customers trust us to point them toward the best possible repair, not just the fastest one," said Tim Smith, owner of American & Import Auto Repair.

We're also able to offer financing, so a transmission repair doesn't have to derail somebody's budget. It fits exactly how we've always done business here: honest work, at a fair price, backed by a company that stands behind it."

American & Import Auto Repair has built its reputation in the Tri-Cities area on ASE-certified technicians, transparent communication with customers, and a full range of auto repair services. Adding Certified Transmission's factory-quality rebuilt transmissions to that lineup allows the shop to offer transmission replacements with dealership-level quality at independent-shop prices plus financing options help make the repair affordable for customers facing an unexpected transmission failure.
