Service was excellent. I am a single woman have trust issues with mechanics taking advantage of me. I took my 1997 truck to Blackfoot Transmission in in April to have the transmission looked at prior to driving it to Indiana, because I thought there was a problem - when cruise control was on, it would not stay on going uphill. Although the owner, Robert Lee, was very busy, he took the time to take the truck for a drive with me and determined that all that it needed was an adjustment to the cruise control cable, which he did. He didn't charge me anything! He also recommended that I have their free 72-point inspection done. I ran out of time but drove to Indiana and back with no problem. Later, in August, I made an appointment to get the 72-point inspection and a transmission service. There was also a squeaking sound that I thought was a rock in the wheel and there had been a squeaking sound in the front end ever since I bought the truck. I got an appointment that day, Robert Lee drove the truck, felt there was a problem with the motor mount, and I left the truck with him. His shop later called to say that the problem was U-joints in the back going out. I told him to go ahead and replace them and thought I would be without a truck for several days. They called the next morning and told me the truck was done! It has never sounded so good! The squeaks are gone. I feel confident that I can drive it to Indiana and back without a problem. I trust Robert Lee completely and would highly recommend him to all the single ladies who don't know who to trust. He has integrity and the costs for services were very reasonable. Thank you Blackfoot Transmission!

Description of Work: Having spent many years in the automotive business as either a mechanic or manager of same, I am acutely aware of when someone is trying to fleece me or of substandard workmanship. Blackfoot Transmission has always been incredibly honest with me, and their workmanship beyond reproach.

I was told from another company that I needed a transmission rebuild which would have costed me $4000 but after taking it to Blackfoot Transmissions they found out that it was something much more simple to fix, saving me thousands.
Description of Work: The provider was honest and affordable. I would recommend them to anyone.

Response from BLACKFOOT TRANSMISSION
To Whom It May Concern: Hi my name is Robert Lee I am the owner of Blackfoot Transmissions. I am responding to a complaint that was filed by [Member name removed]. [Member name removed] called me last year and told me that his vehicle had broken down on the one-way in town and that he needed me to come over there and tow it back to my shop. We have done lots of work for him in the past despite people telling me to stay away from him because he's a crook. I gave Mr. [Member name removed] the benefit of the doubt and We went and picked his vehicle up and [Member name removed] told me he wasn't going to have any money to pay for the repairs for a couple months. I told him there wouldn't be a problem with that, he said that he just needed a place to store it so that it wouldn't get towed. We brought the vehicle to me shop and he left it here. I was in contact with [Member name removed] from August when the car was dropped off all the way to December with no problems. After that [Member name removed] and I lost contact and stopped talking and didn't see or hear from him until May. In May I received a phone call from [Member name removed] claiming that we were blocking his phone number which is not true or correct. Later he came into the shop, conveniently just after I had served repossession papers on his vehicle because I hadn't had any contact with him from December 2013 until May. Then he comes in and wants to know a price on getting a motor and stuff installed in his own mind thinking that's going to waive all of the storage fees that I've obviously accrued on this vehicle from December 2013 until July 2014. I gave him a price to replace the motor and transmission on the car telling him also that doing continued work on his vehicle would not waive the previously accrued storage fees. nothing was signed he just came in to get a price for the work. He then proceeded the following week to call me a thief and claims that I broke into his house and stole a bunch of bouncy furniture out of his house and that he wanted me to forgo all the storage fees that were accrued on his vehicle. He claims to have me on video tape stealing from him. [Member name removed] is a liar and a con. He owned a business in this town called [Company name removed]. I'm sure that you are able to research his business and you'll will find numerous complaints about him and find none about me and my business. I take care of people and I treat them right, just as I treated [Member name removed] right. I held on to [Member name removed]'s truck for over a year now and I feel that I am entitled to storage fees on the vehicle. This is a big truck, it's a 91' Suburban and it takes up two parking spaces on my lot. I feel like I have been very fair with Mr. [Member name removed]. When he came down I told him the storage fees and everything on the vehicle came to about $3,500 and that if he wanted to pay me $2,000 of it that I would release the vehicle to him and he could come pick it up. He refused to do this, trying to be a con. That is about the gist of my side of this situation.
