Excellent service! Im lucky to have found this place after my mechanic of 30 plus years died. 7 Oaks is honest and knowledgeable- two of the most important things when getting your vehicle repaired.
Friendly. Competent
They explain things. They keep a tidy shop. Biggest things for me though were theyre honest and they know what theyre doing when it comes to repairing your vehicle. I wouldnt go anywhere else, even though it feels like A long drive from where I live. A really nice place to deal with. So nice to deal with a place that you can trust. Just picked up my truck and the problem

Absolutely the first and only place I would trust for all your drivetrain repairs and maintenance! I recently had to have some work done on my old 2003 Toyota Matrix AWD which was in need of some transfer case repair, I was recommended to see Bob at Seven Oaks Transmission and I am so glad I did. Right from the time I went in and spoke to the service manager Frank I was treated with immediate friendly and courteous service but beyond that speaking with Frank, Bob (the owner) and one of the younger service techs I got the impression that they really knew what they were talking about they showed

Seven Oaks Transmissions is fantastic! Not only did they correctly diagnose and repair the issue I brought in with my Ford F150, they also correctly diagnosed two other issues (Failing U joint and rear brake pads), they correctly repaired all the issues and the Truck drives better than when I purchased it!! They were fair and concerned with pricing and showed me all the failed components! Professional and friendly from start to finish! From Frank at the front desk to Garrett, Kyle and the guys working on the vehicles they are awesome!

Positive:Professionalism,Punctuality,Quality,Value
Brought my car in twice for two separate problems and both times it felt like these guys went above and beyond to make sure my vehicle left their shop in perfect condition. Highly recommend anyone looking to have their car serviced to used these guys as I know I'll be coming back if another problem arises.
