I'm very confident after having my 2017 Ram 1500 transmission serviced here That it was done right. I was very pleased with the service and will return for future needs. Thank you Joe.
William Myers
Super trustworthy spot? truly appreciate Joe! I was having issues with my car and Joe gave me super solid honest advice when he could have just done the work on my car I was inquiring about to take my money like everyone else? but instead he took his time to really help me! Thanks Joe!
Chazmith Newton
Joe is the kindest man? he made me cry he helped me so much with my 20 year old sentimental Porsche. Also he's one of the smartest people I've ever talked to. He's honest , kind and treated me like his daughter? even though I'm too old to be. Thank you. There are not many people on earth left like that. HONESTY !! RARE !!!!

Daytona Auto Repair is the best. I have known them, Joe Miles, Et al, for almost 15 years and I would never take my vehicles anywhere else. In fact, I am having them rebuild my engine and transmission and upgrading the entire rear suspension including a new Dana 44, for my antique Corvette! So take that for what it's worth to you. But, to me, I have owned that car for a long time, more than 30 years, it means (almost) everything to me. So, if I can trust them with that, then you can trust them with your car as well. These guys are the best! Sincerely, Rich Williams Astor, Florida 32102

Came to Daytona for jeep week with our son and his girlfriend. His jeep transmission went out day two and these guys saved us. Towed it in Thursday rebuilt a transmission and Monday afternoon we're headed home. Knowledgeable shop that clearly knows what they are doing and treated us right. Thanks for the great service.

My 2017 F350's transmission went from a faulty valve body I installed and decided it needs to go to a transmission shop. We looked up A1 transmission called late at night and Joe picked up explained in great detail and with loads of knowledge about what my transmission will need. He got me in the next day and even came with a tow truck to pick it up. Joe had my truck back to me a week later. My F350 shifts better than it ever has. He recommended upgrading the torque converter for the extra power my F350 is pushing and recommended kevlar disks. My whole experience with A1 transmission and Daytona auto repair was amazing. Joe was extremely transparent and great with communication. Joe is even writing something up and helping me with the faulty remanufactured valve body I purchased from a 3 party company. I highly recommend A1 Transmission and Daytona auto repair.

Joe is knowledgeable and helpful. Did great work on two of our vehicles.

Professional, timely, and cost-friendly.
Jason Holley
Joe was great! He took care of my vehicle and had it completed at the time he quoted. Very professional!
Carissa Castillo
Joe was very helpful and up front about the job, but it is hard to give a 5 star review when you have to spend $5k+ to get your Jeep fixed. But I would definitely use them again. They knew it was my only way to get around and finished it up on a Saturaday for me.
Dave Hobza
Team did a great job on our Jeep! Drove great after work completed. Very professional and like the automation around communication. We paid online and came after hours to pick up Jeep. Our key was not in lockbox. I called around 9 pm and owner answered. We checked second lockbox with him on the phone with us which also did not have the key. Owner volunteered and drove to shop on a rainy night to get our key. While their mixup the owner's customer service turned the situation into a positive experience.
Tom Schwent
I brought my car in to get checked out and the two gentlemen that I spoke with were very kind, honest, and knowledgeable. They talked to me in a way that I could understand without talking to me like I did not know anything. Their customer service is excellent and i ended up not getting my car done due to finances and they did not charge me for any time or work that they put into my car. I will be making them my new mechanics, I highly recommend this place to everyone.
Melinda Smith
Ran diagnostics quickly. Always the same team.
Bill Shoup
Always excellent service! Very honest and trustworthy.
kenneth reed
Great place. Fast and efficient.
Paul Kelly
Very friendly, courteous service, extremely knowledgeable personnel, all aspects of the repair are explained in detail, repairs are prompt and having their own tow truck certainly makes life much easier, no need to spend an hour on the phone dealing with other tow services. Great communication and the finished repairs were top notch! Highly recommended
Kathleen Lantinen
The best experience I could have imagined to the worst problem I could have expected. My barely used truck broke down, the dealership was of zero help, my regular mechanic ran a check and discovered a transmission code. I was then referred to Daytona Auto where I was treated with the utmost respect and curiosity. And I didn't have to do a thing! Joe at Daytona Auto took care of putting in my warranty claim, he explained everything to me, told me what to expect and when my truck would be repaired and it was done on time and ready for me to drive away! No hassles No worries and done right! Thank you Daytona Auto for your service! The vehicle they diagnosed and replaced a transmission in is a 2016 Chevy Silverado Custom with only 62k In 3 days from start to finish!
Theresa Foley
I have a warranty through an after market service and was looking for a repair shop that has the experience required to get a successful resolution as the horror stories abound with wasted efforts! Fortunately I found Daytona Auto Repair. Joe explained that I should review the language in my service contact so I could better determine my path forward. I received his estimate and what he thought the warranty company would provide in response. Joe informed me they would opt for the less expensive used transmission verses the cost to rebuild with new parts! Exactly what they did! Having this info provided me the knowledge to expedite the repairs without the lengthy delays I would otherwise have incurred. No I didn't get 100% coverage but wasn't expecting to. What I did get was an excellent job in a timely basis with a cost predicted almost to the penny! Thanks Joe for the guidance through a mine field and hopefully a rebuilt transmission that will last for years to come! With gratitude, Warner Shue
Warner Shue
Great service. Had the transmission in my 2006 BMW go bad. They were very professional, starting with a full explanation of what was involved, frequent updates on the repair progress and high quality work to get me on my way. They are honest and knowledgeable. My new ?go to? for all future repairs. They earned my loyalty.
RJM
Superb customer service ?? Couldn't find anyone else to get the job done , and these guys got my vehicle and 4 days later this problem was fixed amongst other things as a courtesy!!! Thanks Again I'm very impressed and Satisfied
Rodney Gilyard
Attention to detail.
Gene Kelly
Transmission went out on van and they fixed it in a quick timely manner with excellent customer service. I give 4 stars so far because I just got it back and headed straight to nc so so far so good. If the van is still driving smoothly in 6 months then I will give this shop 5 stars. I did study the other reviews and feel that everyone has a different situation and how my personal situation was handled I am a satisfied customer.

Great service and staff. Highly recommend
Eric Stratfold
Honest people, they really fix what needs to be fix and not try to sell you all the extra stuff you don't need. Made me feel welcome as a young woman walking in. A lot of other places I tried saw me as easy money because I was a girl. They saw me as a person that just needed help. This is where I send friends and family.
Amanda D'Arcy
I called Joe and even though they were busy he took me in and serviced my Mercedes SUV.excellant service and price.anyone out there if you need mechanical things done..european and all makes ..you need to call Joe at Daytona Auto Repair
Rocco Colanero
My experience was great, Joe and his staff did a great job on getting my vehicles back on the road. I Have multiple personal cars and always take them to Joe. He gives me an upfront price, estimated completion time and is honest on the work needed for each vehicle. I've had engine and transmission replacement, engine maintenance, brakes, radiator and additional work done and always satisfied with the work. I highly recommend Joe and his staff.
Joseph Endara

Good service friendly staff
Bob Huck
This was my first time going here Joe and his staff was honest and good. Joe was offering a free scan diagnosis on cars so I took him my Honda and my mercedes. For my mercedes I was sure it was my transmission going out and wasn't looking forward to putting that money out to fix it but after Joe scanned the car he told me it was my shifter ...thank God and thank you Daytona auto repair

Daytona auto repair gives great service, and really have great knowledge of vehicles. They know cars and what their doing. They have very skilled machanics who know how to repair your car. They are honest with their estimates. They did good quality work on my car.
michael smallwood

Had 355 gears installed in my 93 lincoln town car came out great... no gear noise. They do great work. Highly recommend
Ramon Nichols
I was in town for bike week and transmission on my 2018 Chevrolet. Joe is very professional and knowledgeable. He went out of his way dealing with warranty company. And got me a new transmission installed by the time bike week was over. Very satisfied.
Brandon Jenkins
I live in VA, but stay in FL with my parents for months at a time. Joe treats me like a local. Being a woman from out of town it is good to have someone trust worthy when I need cars repairs 750 miles from home. Never makes me feel stupid or taken advantage of. Highly recommend Joe and his group of mechanics.
Cindy Clark
Best shop in town
joshua dehaan
I never have a problem with Joe and staff. I took my car to another place to fix my shifter cables due to proximity and TIME constraints. They got everything to go back in gear EXCEPT reverse (no matter how hard they tried). I dealt with that for almost 9 months then it broke loose again. This time I took it back to Joe (being as that 5yrs ago he'd fixed this problem before) and I was not disappointed one bit. Joe is very good and usually VERY busy, but he still takes the time to get my vehicle done in a timely matter. Lesson learned: Joe and staff took care of me, and even REPAIRED the screw up the other place did, which solved the lack of reverse engagement. THAT is what I call COMMITMENT, and great customer service. A-1 Daytona Auto Repair has been my place for over a decade and will continue to do so. I might have saved some time and convenience at the other place, but I got what I paid for....shoddy work. Thanks a bunch Joe and staff!! ~Pete Edwards Port Orange, FL

Excellent Auto Repair!!! Joe was fantastic and he got my car back on the road! Very fair with pricing!

Colin Dennis
The shop in Holly hill is unparalleled in customer service, knowledge and technical ability. I've been in there twice and Joe has gone above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of. This is a shop that truly stands behind their work 100%. They are up front and honest. I am now a customer for life.
Cory Diamond
Great guys! Brought my car in there because of a broken sensor probe and they checked it out for free and also replaced two of my bell housing bolts that they found missing. Didn't charge me anything! Highly recommend them!
Allen Kang
Stressed out how I was going to fix my AC I called Joe he made me feel at ease just over the phone I went in they hooked my car up to a computer and realized it just a simple fuse problem fixed it just like that! I will definitely go back for a automotive problems and will definitely recommend. Thanks Joe
Tabitha Horne
Very happy with transmission rebuild.

Joe helped my son who is there for college. He didn't over charge, he actually went above and beyond to help out my son. Anytime my son is having a problem, he calls Joe and he always helps him out. Would recommend them to everyone.
Cindy M
These guys worked so quickly and helped me with my issue for less than anyone else around. I will definitely be back for any other automotive needs!

Joe is the greatest he told me what was going on with my jeep and repair costs were better than I expected
Jim R
Was traveling on a florida fishing trip when i broke down and the staff helped me out right away. They ordered the parts i needed and had me back on the road that day. Great work, great price and just real nice people. Just be careful of the dog when you walk into the office, hes a loud barker! If your not ready for it he will surprize you. But he really is a very friendly dog.
Tony Capone
Best auto repair shop around. Honest and upfront on all repairs. Highly recommended
Michael Neidig
Joe and his staff do an amazing Job. They are very kind and reliable and have done an amazing job on my car.
Shellie Morrison
I took my Acura here to Joe as it started shifting hard, and being on vacation, I really wanted to be able to get home when planned. Long story short, I took it to Joe thinking I needed a rebuild, he took it in looked at it, drove it, ran diagnostics, and told me I had an issue with the ABS module that was causing it to shift hard. He very easily could have dropped the transmission and rebuilt it and charged me for something I didn't need. But I feel Joe was very straightforward and honest. Good to see that honesty in the business world.
Mark Vaughn
Joe and his team are a life saver! They got me in asap had my car back in no time. Thought its was going to cost alot more than what it did. My mom recommend Joe best choice! Being a women I have always been scard to go to a repair shop, thinking I would get over charged. Not in this case! Highly recommend I will deffently go back to Joe next time I have car problems! Thanks Joe
Nicole Charbonneau
Joe services all our vehicles when we are in Florida! We wish we could bring him to Canada with us.

I had my escape for about a week when I started to have transmission troubles . so I call and Joe anwser and got me towed right in . Joe was a very honest man and funny. He got my escape back on the road and going great . I definitely give this place a 5 plus stars
Christina Paige
As a Warranty Company, my clients having a Repair facility that will shoot straight and treat them Fair is the difference between a customer enjoying their experience or being dissapointed. On The First claim Daytona Auto Repair worked for us I saw Joe treat the customer he never met like he would his Mom. I would definitely recommend them.
Jim Scully
Joe and his staff are experts and very professional. If you're looking for a trustworthy and reputable mechanic, look no further. These guys know their stuff and are very willing to go above and beyond to explain your options.
Ashley Larsen
Awesome service !! Highly recommended for any and all auto repair needs!

Fantastic service. They were very careful not to charge me unnecessarily. In fact they did a free check of the AC system on my Ford Excursion. Would recommend to anyone. They are located in Holly Hill so don't put Daytona into your google maps use Holly Hill.
brianaustin82
Simply the best car service center I have dealt with. Full one stop service from the difficult engine and transmission issues to the simple wiper blade change they do it all. Never trying to sell anything you don't need. In timely manner they do get the job done with their superior workmanship. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Gabor Kovacs
Took in my car was running pretty bad. They have it running like knew. And figured out some really weird problems.
Randy Thomas
Daytona auto is hands down the best there is in the area. My family and I are from out of state and he took us in as his own. Repaired my vehicle and worked with me on pricing to allow me to still have enough money to have the best purposel for my fiance. Hands down a great team and speedy , thorough work. I wouldn't go to another shop if I lived down here. CHOOSE THIS SHOP!
Travis Seeman
I met with the owner to diagnose a transmission concern in my SUV. I'm on a very tight budget and the SUV is pretty old (year and mileage). He gave me a very honest and upfront opinion without trying to convince me to have the repair performed at the shop. I was very pleased with his courtesy and candor. I'll be sure to consult with him first about any future vehicle concerns.
Chad R
I have nothing but good things to say about this company. My cars transmission went down 11/24/15 around 1pm. A1 Transmission had it in their shop by 4pm that day and I got my back on the road in less than 24 hours. Great service my family and I thank you for getting us back on the road so quickly for the holidays. I would 100% recommend this company to anyone that is having automotive trouble. Honest reliable company. Again THANK YOU A1 TRANSMISSION.
Ezekiel Gerthung
I originally went to Aamco because I was told over the phone they could diagnose my vehicle for free, when I arrived they told me they could look at it but a diagnosis would cost 90 dollars. I mean 90 dollars just to tell me what is wrong is crazy. I called Daytona Auto Repair they said a diagnosis would not be a problem, in under 10 mins they figured out the problem a part was ordered and 4-5 hours later my car was ready to go. They were even nice enough to provide me with a lift to and from my home. Joe is a great mechanic and a great help he was a life saver and right before Thanksgiving also. This place is Awesome, I am an totally going to go back to this place in the future!
Gerry Juarez
Great customer service! Fast and friendly. Researched the cost and they were right under the average cost for a transmission repair.
Ben Williams
I was very leary when I took my van there as I used to work in the auto repair business myself and know firsthand the tricks they like to pull but I must say these guys seem to be very honest and very professional. They rebuilt my transmission and they had the best price in two counties (Flagler and Volusia) and a good warranty. There are no leaks not even a drop and it works perfect. I highly recommend this repair shop for any thing under your hood.
Philip Ozment
These guys are great! They call you when they say they will call. They explain everything in great detail. Their prices are reasonable. Our transmission went out on a Sunday afternoon. We got it to them on Monday morning without an appointment and they fixed it by 3:30. Told us it could be as low as $560 or as high as $1,595. It ended up being $560. They treat customers the way they used to be treated years ago. Very friendly and attentive.
Diane Hawkins
Honest. Affordable and Reliable Service. Joe and his team did an excellent job repairing the transmission on my Jeep. It rides as smooth as butter. I am very impressed on how they took care of my concerns, let me know exactly what was wrong with it, and discussed everything up front, including the price, which was very reasonable versus others. It took me a while to find them, but I am glad I did. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Lee Hall
Very honest, knowledgeable and very quick at getting the job done. I trust them with anything, they're amazing!
Charlene York
Once again the Team did a great job repairing my daughter's car. Fast, effective, reliable, and reasonable repair service. I am confident that their work will keep her car on the road. Thanks for such great work!
Charlie
The entire staff including the owner went above and beyond to ensure I did not buy a flipped/scam '99 BMW. They knew I was planning to drive it home to NC **IF** I purchased it. They knew I was due to arrive w/ luggage. They took pictures in case the seller insisted on retrieving his car so I would see the evidence. The seller was a liar, insisting that was not oil leaking as we all watched it drip while on the hoist. Those bad people are out there. IF IT WEREN'T FOR DAYTONA AUTO REPAIR, I could have been stuck on 95. The seller sure knew this was my fate had I purchased the BMW. DAR knew it too and did everything they could to prevent it including holding the seller off as long as possible in hopes my delayed flight would make it in time. I wish I could do more to thank them than leaving this review. THANK YOU. ALL Y'ALL AT DAYTONA AUTO REPAIR!
catherine o gullison
Did you ever come back from an auto repair shop and feel you had been treated with respect, given a thorough education on your problem and had them find the answer was rather simple and fix it free! Well, I just did and they have a new customer for both of my cars!!!!!!! Joe was all of the above and so was the mechanic that did the work. I highly recommend them just from one experience. Stay tuned and I'll update you all as I continue to have more work done.
Robert Stuart
Went in to have truck looked at because it was making an awful noise and would not stay started. Everyone was very kind, even stopped eating lunch to help us! We were informed that the only thing wrong was the truck had the wrong oil. We are so grateful for the great service and the honesty of the people working here! Thank you so much for the great service! We would highly recommend this shop!!
Marc Fratina

My car was overheating. I called the day before Christmas eve to get them to pick it up. They were courteous, honest, and trustworthy. They could have went along with my thinking it was the head gasket but they were honest. It was only the water pump, costing me 1000+ less $$ than what i was prepared to pay. Good people!
