Harrell & Beverly Transmissions & Auto Repair

About us

Our mission at Harrell & Beverly is to provide the highest standards of professional, honest and dependable automotive service and repair; specializing in transmissions and advanced electronic diagnostics. We want you to have the best customer service you have ever received. When Harrell & Beverly opened up in Sanford, FL in 1959 a gallon of gas cost just 25 cents, Alaska and Hawaii became the 49th and 50th states respectively, Frank Sinatra was singing his way to the top of the charts. Since that time some things have changed, like the cost of gas. Some things haven’t changed; Alaska and Hawaii are still part of the Union and Frank Sinatra still sounds good. And some things have gotten better with time, like the honest, dependable and professional service you can only get at Harrell & Beverly. As vehicles have changed over the years, so has Harrell & Beverly. From the downfall of big gas guzzlers, to the rise of front wheel drive transmissions, to the introduction of electronic computer controls; Harrell & Beverly has been there each step of the way. Present day vehicles have such sophisticated computerized systems that require technicians to be half computer scientist and half mechanic. The technicians at Harrell & Beverly routinely attend training classes to stay updated with the ever changing automotive service and repair industry.

My Hyundai Sonata has over 110,000 miles on it and is therefore out of warranty---so when the starter began to fail I looked for an alternative to the dealership service center. I have been driving by Harrell and Beverly for 24 years now never needing a transmission service nor realizing that they also perform auto repair services. My search led me to them and I couldn't be more satisfied with this company. They are a family-owned business and it is obvious that they truly care about their customers. I was greeted warmly by each member I encountered; I was well-informed from start to finish about all repairs, the cost of the repairs and the time-table of completion. They even retained my old and damaged parts to show me. My car was returned to me running great and even cleaner than when I dropped it off. The knowledge, professionalism and courtesy of this staff will have me returning and trusting them with all future repairs! Thanks Hope, Don, David and Nelson

They treated me very well. They seem quite trustworthy (you know how difficult it is gain the trust of car repair company's) and I plan to go back to them next week for some additional repairs.

The car was old but with the heater stick on it just made it worse. We were not happy about it. My son does not have a car now.

Response from Harrell & Beverly Transmissions & Auto Repair

"Our family business has been at the same location since 1959 and is still family owned and operated. Our mission is to provide the highest standards of professional, honest, and dependable automotive service and repair. We specialize in transmissions and advanced electronic diagnostics. We always appreciate hearing feedback from our customers. Being in business for almost 55 years now we have received a lot of positive feedback and on rare occasion, negative feedback. When we do, we take it to heart and make necessary positive changes in our operation. The AC issues noted by the customer were present when the vehicle arrived to our shop and was acknowledged to the customer multiple times throughout our entire process. It was also conveyed in writing on the final invoice. While the vehicle was at our shop, the customer didn’t make any objections to our notes. The repair work that we did had no interaction with the AC system and would not have caused the noted AC issues. The AC system appeared to be in a default setting indicating a possible issue with a control module for the AC system but further testing and repairs would have been required to verify and correct. We offered to recheck our work and restated that the AC issues were present upon receiving the vehicle. When the vehicle was brought back for us to recheck it, there were false accusations made towards us. At that point the situation deteriorated and the customer left. Lastly, the customer states that her son “does not have a car now.” At the conclusion of the repair work by Harrell & Beverly (some eight months ago) the vehicle was drivable. It is unknown why the vehicle would not be drivable now unless some other factor(s) that we don’t know about have occurred. We encourage you to continue researching our family business by checking the reviews on our web site, www.HarrellAndBeverly.com. We have years of AAA Approved Auto Repair survey cards that you are welcomed to review as well. Feel free to stop by our shop and have a look around for yourself! We would welcome the opportunity to take care of your automotive service and repair needs.

In my experience they are honest and very good at what they do. They are also efficient on their time and cost estimates, so there are no surprises. They are a bit pricey, but in this case you get what you pay for.
They are all polite and the facility is spotless. It's a pleasure to get work down on my car! And that's very rare these days!

These guys are very honest. I've been going here for about 15 years and they're always checking your cars. They are very prompt about their appointments and their honesty is the best part. In going there, they are going to tell you how it is, if it's worth fixing or not. They have a very clean shop and they are very organized. Their prices too are very competitive.

I drove my car to their shop and they brought me back home so I wouldn't have to sit in there waiting room. Then picked me up when the work was done. I have never had to do a return visit for the same problem. These people are sharp and you wouldn't believe how honest. You will not get junk done just to pad the bill. Trust these guys! You won't go wrong.

Very Professional and detailed. All the staff was comumicative. They called us as requested for repair detail and estimate - faxed us the details and walked us through it over the phone. The car was done when they said it would be and the estimate for repair was pretty on point to exact costs. You will definately get what you pay for here - professional - educated mechanics and

Estimate was actually higher than actual price when they were done due to a part coming in cheaper than they thought. Car was done in timeframe they mentioned. Price was less than another estimate I received. And they were extremely friendly. Highly recommended.

Visiting Harrell and Beverly is like being on the set of "Pleasantville." Every employee is polite, attentive, efficient, and effective. The work is always done on time or early, and the estimates are always spot-on. They are incredibly detailed in their explanations of work to be done and their paperwork is also detailed and organized. The shop is clean and easy to get to. I trust them completely and recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone in need of a good auto mechanic.
