Here’s what some of our Princeton, MN customers are saying about us:


I am a mechanic but don’t do transmissions so I had Randy rebuild my Dads transmission and he did a great job at a very fair price. He gave us a quote and did it for that amount and did great work. He uses the car every day for work and it’s still running great. I’d recommend them to anyone, including my own customers when I can’t do what they need. Great shop.

I was referred to Affordable Transmission's Randy Merrill by Peterbuilt's Technician of the Year, who knows Randy from their years of experience working together in the auto repair business. Randy Immediately diagnosed the problem and did the repair with a more than reasonable price. Friendly, prompt, great service at a very reasonable price and I highly recommend them for any of your automobile repair needs.

After calling a few places and being drug around by random quotes and timeframes I called these guys and Randy? I think, was straight to the point, explained the whole process, gave me an exactly quote, time frame and had free towing pick up my vehicle. I was 100% shocked at the professionalism and timeliness and had no problem paying the price which was very in the middle of the road with others and rebuilding a transmission. Also there’s a 2yr, 24,000 mile warranty. I highly recommend these guys!

Brought my 95 Ford F150 there. Randy was a huge help. I thought I had to replace my whole transmission but I didn't. He saved me thousands and did exactly what he promised. I am super grateful i brought my truck there. Thanks!!!!!

Excellent service once again on the transmission for my race car. Very affordable. Will be back. Thanks Randy and crew.

Affordable Transmission & Performance Customer Review


I do most of my repair work myself, but draw the line at transmissions and differential repairs. We found Randy a few years ago and he repaired my son's F-150 transmission which is still rolling strong! This week I brought my vehicle from the south metro up to Affordable Transmission for a differential rebuild. Randy knocked it out in a day and the car is quiet again and like driving a new vehicle - 2000 Town Car...Thanks Randy!

This is the second vehicle that I've had repaired there and the service has been fantastic. They maintained professionalism throughout both of my experiences. After my repairs were done they blocked me through everything that was repaired and showed me the parts that they replaced. Brought it back in because I felt there was something going on with it and they took care of it all free of charge. Thank you so much for the guys at affordable transmission.

Amazing business! Long story short after a little pushback at a dealership I purchased a car from and a free diagnosis (on paper) from this shop I was able to return a car with a transmission issue. I swear I was at the point of tears but the gentlemen at this shop had my back 1000% and they had never met me before - had plenty of traffic already - could’ve told me they didn’t have time today - I’d have to leave the car, anything?! They took me in anyway, I was recommended to this shop by another loyal customer of theirs (a friend of mine) will definitely be back!

Google Review


I took my car to the nearest place when my transmission was going out, which was a car dealer. They diagnosed it wrong and my repair would have been astronomical. Had my car towed somewhere else, they diagnosed it but could not fix it... Affordable Transmiission came to the rescue and saved me money. Great customer service too. Thank you!

My Jeep sounds great! They did a complete overhaul of my transmission for my 04 Jeep Liberty and I couldn't be happier. Thank you Randy!!!

I took my car here to get a second opinion on a quote for a transmission fix from another auto body shop. I felt like the owner here gave me his honest opinion and I felt like I could trust him, which to me is huge. I will definitely be coming to this shop again for any and all maintenance in the future!

Affordable Transmission & Performance Customer Review


30 days has gone by and my chevy impala transmission still works!!! I can honestly say the shop name speak for itself. He seriously was the only affordable shop in the metro within my budget. With warranty included, which I could not find any other shop with the same deal. Also he came across 2 other damaged parts that was not apart of my transmission. Of course I was not expecting any other damage besides what I brought my car in for. He helped me out and worked with me to make it affordable as well I appreciate that. Last thing he does not only install your transmission he also brings you in and educate you. He showed me my damaged parts and explained why my sh*t would not drive lol...when you treat ppl good and not hustle them.. You'll be in business for a long time.. Thanks alot again...

While visiting family in Brooklyn Park, MN, developed a wheel bearing problem on Saturday, 5/5/18. Before returning to South Dakota, showed up at Randy's door (Affordable Transmission) early Monday (5/7/18) morning and he worked us into his schedule. We were on our way before noon with a new LF premium wheel bearing assembly and new premium front brake pads and rotors. Randy provided us wheels to return to our son's house while they worked on the Tahoe. The next time either of our vehicles needs mechanical attention, I hope we're in the area of the professional crew at Affordable Transmission. Thanks again, Randy.

What a breath of fresh air! After getting the 'bad news' of a transmission issue, I found myself in the hands of the team at Affordable Transmission. For the first time in a long time, I felt that my needs, my concerns and my transmission problems would finally be in the hands of qualified, experienced technicians with a bedside manner that you'd expect at a quality hospital! There were no shortcuts, no quibbles about quality - just 100% get down to business at the right no-nonsense price to get the job done with a personal guarantee. This is MY kind of shop and one I'd recommend all day, every day. Check out Randy and the team at Affordable Transmission for all of your automotive repair needs! You'll be glad you did!

Too bad it only goes up to 5 stars. This guy went far above what I expected. Rebuilt the transmission for half the price that we were quoted from another shop. He also showed us every single part and why he replaced/fixed it. Great places, definitely coming back for any kind of car problem in the future.

Google Review


Randy @ Affordable Transmission is a trustworthy, "straight-shooting", no nonsense, talented, professional mechanic. He stands behind his estimates and work - no matter how much time it takes. He will research a problem, if necessary, and evaluates every option to provide the best solution. He works countless hours to accommodate his customers - before and after his posted business hours. He shows you the problem parts he replaces and explains why they were a problem and what he did to fix the problem. This guy lives and breathes transmissions - not sure he has any other life - which is great for his customers - but leaves little time for himself. Randy, thanx for all the dedicated service I have received from you. You can always count on a 5 star excellence rating and recommendation from me!

Affordable Transmission & Performance Customer Review


The best shop I have ever brought a vehicle for service. Randy is always very straight forward, and honest about what's going on with your vehicle. Myself, my friends, and my family have all had work done by Randy, and it's always done amazingly well.

Randy and his Son are awesome! They recently helped us with an engine repair the day before an out of state trip. Incredible turn around on that project when we were in a time crunch. Top notch guys!

Randy did great diligent work and will be bringing all my future car repairs to his shop!

I had a problem with my transmission not shifting into 3rd gear, a couple of years ago. Randy showed me where he found a hairline crack in the drum that would not allow the fluid to build enough pressure to shift, with the repair and the new performance converter, my car is more consistent and reliable. Very informative, professional, and trustworthy. Thanks Randy

Affordable Transmission & Performance Customer Review


My son brought his truck here for an odd noise and wanted them to check it as he was going on vacation and through many attempts with new parts and lots of time at cost of there own due to the nature of the problem and repair which is Big in the auto shop industry, they have made yet another happy customer. Rick is very dedicated at making sure his customers feel they are a high concern and does an honest affordable repair! My son wanted me to give a shout out to the guys at Affordable.

Google Review


i brought my 4l60e transmission out of a 2002 silverado 1500 in for a full rebuild, added a shift kit, and upgraded sunshell. i could not be happier with it. 3 years of hard use and 100,000 miles and it still shifts like id did the day i got it (shift kit is well worth it for hauling, it shifts like a rock)
I would recommend affordable transmission to any one looking to get a grate transmission rebuild quickly and affordably.
the best part is that they saved all my old parts, and showed me exactly what components in the transmission had failed and why.

Google Review


Randy gave us great advice, as my teenage son was working on his own transmission. He took the car for a test drive with us and told him what was likely wrong with it and what it would take to fix it, giving us an estimate on how much it would cost if he fixed it and giving us advice on where to get parts if my son decided to fix it. No pressure, he said to take some time to think about it. My son and I followed Randy's advice, found a remanufactured tranny and replaced the tranny ourselves. Works great! I went back to thank him. He is extremely knowledgeable with 35 years of experience and it shows. Highly recommend Randy for any car work.

I have a fleet of company trucks and when one truck goes down, I bring it to Randy because I know I can rely on him and his staff to get us up and running as quick as possible. Great service and will continue bringing our trucks to him when needed. Thank you for the latest repair on our dump truck!

How can I begin. I came to your shop soon you open for advice on my impala harsh shift. Randy you took the time to give me a diagnosis and found a hidden code. You told me to give you a call if I want my trans fix. I called you the same day you told me you can squeeze me in.. you and your crew worked on my car which would take 4-6hrs to do but you guys got done in 2 hours. You told me the price and that's what I paid. Now my car drives brand new, smooth n fast get up. Your shop.and staff are amazing and super nice. Thank you for giving my car life again..I fell in love with my car all over again. I will be coming to you from now on.

after being stranded the guys at the shop towed my car in and stayed late to fix it ... the best part it was still cheaper than the other shop who did not care that I was stranded....great job!!!!!!

Excellent customer service. Very thorough, and personable. Randy went through the steps and showed me what my alternator and battery should be at. Didn't take advantage of my lack of knowledge for vehicles. (I'm a young female) Even the towing company was professional. Will definitely be back for any car repairs.

After getting a transmission flush and a filter change at ford dealer i thought it was over filled and they just told me its a little full and it should be fine so I drove for 8000 miles and it was still over filled so I wanted to get an second opinion. After reading reviews I found randy affordable transmission and decided to bring my truck to him and I'm so glad I did. He not only stop what he was doing and did a quick check and then drew me a picture and explained why its not good to over fill a transmission. Then he also finished what he was doing and fit me in that morining and corrected my fluid level. Randy a small time shop that is honest and if anyone wants their vehicles to last I suggest going here and quit getting screwed over by dealer and franchise shop that just want your money and don't care about you or your vehicle. I've been to a lot different shop looking for a guy like randy and I'll recommend him to everyone even if I have to drive an hour one way to get honest work.

As the name suggests, they're affordable and honest. Quality work too. Definitely recommend.

My college age daughters transmission was acting erratic and I was looking for a transmission specialist and I came across Randy at Affordable Transmission so I gave him a call. Brought my 2005 Chevy Trailblazer to him and he did a 'no charge' analysis of the problem, which turned out to be an issue with the transmission and school me in what the problem can be as well as what he was going to do to correct the situation. Which I found quite refreshing compared to what I have received from other repair shops. Randy repaired my daughters transmission in the time frame he said it would be done in. Pick up the car and he proceeded to go over the parts that were replaced in the transmission and showed me the failed part that came out of my transmission. Randy has earned a new customer, being that I have four cars, three of them being older. Hhe will be getting a lot of work from our family. Now I live in Savage and intend on bringing my vehicles some distance for his service that should tell you how much I was impressed with his repair shop. Thanks Randy!

I needed work on my 2007 Chevy Impala, the transmission was slipping from 1st to 2nd when I would be at a stop sign...but not every time. I Googled Transmission Repair for Maple Grove and I went to a Franchised Repair shop first because they were near by. I had to pay $130 to have them tell me that I needed a whole new transmission (rebuilt) and my Valve Gaskets needed replacing...$4800 total. They told me the Solenoids and Valves were fine but that transmission has had issues and is only rated for 100K miles. So I picked up my car and told them I would think about it and then brought it to Randy at Affordable. I told him what they told me and showed him the paperwork and he said not to trust those guys and pretty much guaranteed it was the valves and Solenoid. He got in the car with me and hooked up the Code Machine to see if it would spit out a code but of course...it was running fine and we couldn't get it to slip. (he didn't charge me a dime for that). The first place also erased all of the old codes so he couldn't confirm the issue. He has had a lot of experience with my transmission and told me it would be about $650 to fix. If he had to rebuild the whole thing...$2250 vs. the $4500 at the other place. He also would check the Valve Gaskets but he said a lot of times its just seepage and they don't need replacing. I dropped my car off Thursday morning and it was done at 4:30 the same day. I rented a car and my total was $750 vs the $4800 and the car is running fine. He was correct about the gaskets and didn't charge me anything for that. I know why the "Franchise" repair shops do what they do but they should re-evaluate their methods and go for the repeat business rather than trying to get it all the first time. It's like going to the dentist for a toothache and the next thing you do is wake up in the chair with all new teeth. Randy is a straight shooter, he doesn't advertise, he could be like the others and tell you that this needs fixing or replacing but he doesn't. The only thing he doesn't do is anything with the tires (balancing, alignment...etc.) From now on I will bring my car there for any repairs...I just wish I would have found him sooner when I had my brakes replaced. I am sure I would have saved about $400 on that bill. Thanks again Randy!

It is refreshing to find the real deal! Vehicle repairs can be stressful and expensive. Randy is thorough. He's an honest guy who explains why, when and what needs to be done and has saved me time and money.

It's 5:15pm on Tuesday the 6th of January. I am in the Cities heading back home 3 hours north pulling a U-Haul trailer, when I notice that I have no tail or trailer lights. Not one repair facility in the Brooklyn Park area is willing to try and help. I am desperate. I make one last call to Randy @ Affordable Transmission. He gives me directions to his shop and waits for me to get there. Randy and his son stay late, They located and repair the problem. What a relief. Thank you for taking the time to insure that I am able to safely drive back home.

Randy is awesome. He took the time to diagnose my truck properly and not just throw money and parts at it. He is a stand up guy, and tells it like it is. If you can't handle honestly, go drive your car to the "stealerships" and have them charge you an insane arm and leg. I'm having different issue with my drivetrain, and will be calling Randy in the morning to get my truck in. 2 thumbs up...

I called and spoke with Randy about the transmission on my 1999 Ford Taurus Wagon. I appreciate the phone time he gave me (almost 10 minutes) and his honesty about my particular car situation. My transmission slips if I accelerate too quickly. It is in need of some other repairs also. He explained the most common problems with 1999 Taurus wagons in terms I could understand and in the end, recommended I consider buying a different car. I would recommend Randy to any of family or friends.

I had a great experience working with Randy at Affordable Transmission. Randy is a very knowledgeable and professional person to work with. When I went to pick up my vehicle after he had finished the transmission repair he showed me all of the old parts from the transmission and explained what was wrong with them. There were no hidden or un-expected costs. Very happy with my experience at Affordable Transmission.

Needed a transmission, and could not be any happier than I found this place. I have tried many places over the years, and this one is at the top. The interaction with the place is just spot on. I felt that they treated my the way they want to treat their own vehicle. I can highly recommend them.

Google Review


I have to take the time on how fortunate I was to find Affordable Transmission. I am not one to write many reviews and this one is definitely worth every word. Randy (The Owner) is a stand up man and took great care of my car's transmission. He went above and beyond the simple repairing of my transmission. He took no short cuts and even repaired and upgraded items that others would not. My husband John was completely impressed as well. He said in all the years and transmission repairs he has never had someone go the extra yard like Randy did. Bottom line I drove several hundred miles just to have him fix my transmission and I would do it again with any other car. Rest assured you are at the right place. I own my own business and I know what it takes. He is the best.

Google Review


After 2 paralyzing estimates from two "reputable" repair shops I found myself at Affordable Transmission. Randy at Affordable Transmission managed to accomplish a cylinder head repair/valve job with extra attention to details the other shops never even mentioned, saving me over a thousand dollars in the process. Randy clearly explained what the issues were and the repairs he felt were necessary to keep me safely on the road and out of the repair shop in the future. As a single woman, I would strongly recommend Affordable Transmission to anyone who wants fair & honest pricing along with trustworthy expertise. I will remain a customer of Affordable Transmission as long as they remain in business.

Google Review


Just got my truck back from having it serviced by Randy here. We got service that you don't get out of more expensive places and his prices were unbelievable. The work was done very quickly. When we picked it up he went through piece by piece and he explained everything he had to fix, not only that, he built it back up better than it was before, I know it runs better than I can remember it ever running. Communication was above and beyond anything I've gotten done anywhere else. I could not recommend him more highly. If you're reading this and need to get work done, just stop looking and give him a call, it'll be worth it.

I recently needed some transmission work done on my 2005 Pontiac Grand Prix. Because of the scope of work I needed I was shopping around online looking at different quotes from transmission shops. I called up Affordable Transmission and spoke to Randy. He took his time to tell me in detail what I was to expect in getting services from his shop. He explained to me he personally rebuilds the transmission himself and most shops just install a rebuilt transmission off the shelf. He also warranties his work for 3 yr 36,000 miles. The other shops only did 1 yr and 12,000 miles. And his prices were comparable to the other quotes I received. I was also amazed that he quoted me 2 days for the repair, and it only took 1. Overall I am very satisfied with the service I received and will be sending my friends and family to Affordable Transmission in the future. Thanks again Randy!!

Google Review


I had heard Randy also does performance transmission work, and through word of mouth I learned his reputation was good. After some talking back and forth, I felt comfortable enough to leave my 1972 Chevelle with him so he could improve on my non-original overdrive transmission shifting characteristics (it was from a 1992 suburban). When I dropped it off, he reassured me it would be well taken care of (it was), and I would be very happy with how it would be calibrated (I am). I will absolutely recommend Randy to anyone who needs tranny work done-both late model vehicles and older ones. He was very fair priced, and it took less time than I had planned. He explained what he did to it and respected my almost 40 year old car like it was his own. Thanks Randy!

We have taken at least six different vehicles (two caravans, one large sedan, and one small four-door, and 2 two-door cars) to Randy's Affordable Transmission and we always get them back in a timely manner. There have been times when I have had code lights on in my car and I took it to Randy's and they explained exactly what was wrong, how they would fix it, and how much it would cost. Randy has (probably) saved us a small fortune by going to him instead of our dealers or bigger corporations. Randy is a very personable and agreeable guy, I trust him to take good care of our cars. Affordable Transmission is a car's best friend!! --Rebecca

Randy has repaired two transmissions (03 Taurus & 00 Dakota) for me in the last month. Both are working better than new. Very affordable pricing. Randy did more than just replace broken parts with the same old ones from the dealer, he upgraded them. Randy will be seeing all my cars for future repairs. I highly recommend!

Google Review


Trany went out on our Impala. Had a quote from the auto dealership and was so not affordable and was without warranty. Found Affordable Transmissions by doing a search. So Affordable and included a warranty. I am not from the Twin Cities grew up and lived most of my life in a small community where I knew everyone. Randy made me feel safe in selecting his business and I felt so comfortable and trusting in what he told me. The final cost of repair was actually less the what he quoted. Will definitely recommend to all my friends and go back for any other repair issue we have with our autos

Google Review


my car was throwing codes that indicated tranny problems, i brought it here, and he told me he didn't think the tranny was the problem but he would do a flush to see if it helped, he was the cheapest around and the most helpfull, respectfull, and nice person to work with. went above and beyond the requested service, pulling codes with a detailed scanner, and offering to take my car overnight to see if he could figgure out what was wrong for just a basic fee. would bring my car here any time.

I had Randy rebuild the transmission for my 1993 GMC Safari, and he did a great job! I liked it from the beginning; Randy answers the phone, and he knows who I am, and which car is mine. When I went in to pick it up, he showed me exactly what he did, and the old transmission case that the former owner drilled holes into for extra bolts. He explained the entire process, and showed me the higher quality mechanism that shifts between gears that he installed. He kept the price he quoted. Randy did a great job, and I fully trust his shop.

Randy is very honest and reliable. He did a excellent job-car runs like new. He could have charged more but didnt, Had other work done and that was also done well.We are happy to have found this place.

I've been going to Randy for all my auto repair needs for over five years, and have been consistently pleased with both the service and value of what he offers. Being a single woman, it's difficult to find a mechanic that won't try to take advantage of my limited knowledge of automobiles. I mean, doesn't your car run better after a wash? I know mine does! All kidding aside, Randy will go that extra mile to save you money and is honest and skilled in his field. He will take the time to show you the parts and explain what he did and why. How refreshing. I've referred him to several friends who also are very pleased with his service.

I took my 3/4ton Chevy with an allison transmission to Randy because it was leaking and he had it apart and called me with the issue and worked with me toward the best solution for the repair. He had it back to me super fast and saved me a ton of money. Randy is great at communicating the issue, is straightforward with NO BS, and his pricing is great. Like the title says, you won't be sorry if you take your car or truck to Randy.

I checked all over town trying to find someone who would give me an honest answer and a good price. I was lucky enough to find Randy! He saved me $600 off the price i was getting from everyone else and my car runs great. He is a little off the beaten path and not as easy to find but well worth it. I would recommend this shop to anyone!

It's 5:15pm on Tuesday the 6th of January. I am in the Cities heading back home 3 hours north pulling a U-Haul trailer, when I notice that I have no tail or trailer lights. Not one repair facility in the Brooklyn Park area is willing to try and help. I am desperate. I make one last call to Randy @ Affordable Transmission. He gives me directions to his shop and waits for me to get there. Randy and his son stay late, They located and repair the problem. What a relief. Thank you for taking the time to insure that I am able to safely drive back home.

I have a 2007 Chevy Express. The Chevy Dealership has had my van for a week. I need a rebuilt transmission & rear differential. Chevy said the total would be over $6000. I could have cried. We have five children with no work van.

Randy at Affordable Transmission was friendly & knowledgeable from the start. I had a clear understanding of what was going on. I was given a fair but steep price. More importantly I was given a 2 year warranty on the work.

It reassures me to know that there are still honest people in the world. People that are not there to take advantage of the situation. Randy even provided us with a free tow from the Over priced & Over rated dealership.

I went to affordable transmission a couple days ago to get a new starter and a new wire for my power windows and locks it only took them a couple hours to finish it. He charged almost half for what I got quoted at other places! Nice and friendly run by father and son and they can literally fix it all highly recommended

Yelp Review


The best shop I have ever brought a vehicle for service. Randy is always very straight forward, and honest about what's going on with your vehicle. Myself, my friends, and my family have all had work done by Randy, and it's always done amazingly well.

I have a fleet of company trucks and when one truck goes down, I bring it to Randy because I know I can rely on him and his staff to get us up and running as quick as possible. Great service and will continue bringing our trucks to him when needed. Thank you for the latest repair on our dump truck!
