It was a freebie. I would give them a B because of the cost. It was not the cheapest place to go.

I've been going to them for years. I've recommended them to everyone I know. They do an excellent job. If something isn't right you can take it back to them and they'll fix it until it is right. They even give you a loaner car in the meantime.

I like them for older cars. They service all makes and models. Their employees are all certified and know automotive repair. They have cleaned up their waiting room area and its improved. They have a lot of long term customers.

The front brakes on my truck were seizing so it required towing by AAA to KC Martin.
I've used them for over 12 years now and have never found them un-trustworthy. They provided a quick diagnostic and estimate for the problem. The work was done in one day. Not much more to say. I'll continue to use them in the future as I've been very happy with every service I've had them do.
Response from K C Martin Automotive Service
"Thank you, Mitchell. We try our best to keep it simple for you and provide the best service we can. We hope to keep it going with ya for another 12 years! We appreciate your business."

KC Martin Transmission is awesome. They originally had my 2001 Honda Odyssey (195,000 miles on it) this past January to rebuild my transmission. They provided me with a free loaner vehicle while they worked on my transmission. They had my van about a week and I drove theirs until mine was fixed. Andy in the front office always kept me in the loop as to what was happening with my repair. They provided me with a 2 yr warranty on the rebuilt transmission.
Last week I called KC Martin Transmission because I was noticing issues with my transmission hesitating when I tried to accelerate in the mornings. I took it to the shop Tuesday morning and explained that I was noticing the problem seemed to occur when the engine was cold - either overnight or after it sat all day (cooler days). A technician and I took it for a drive and of course, it didn't act up because the engine was warm. They kept my van (and gave me another free loaner van) so they could test it in the morning again. They were able to get similar issues, so then they did some more testing on it and determined the torque converter was in the early stages of failing. They replaced the torque converter at no charge as it was still under warranty.
I am very happy with KC Martin Transmission and would definitely recommend them to anyone needing repair work. The price I listed above is approximate, as the rebuild took place 6 months ago and I don't remember the exact cost.

I checked out several repair shops. KC seemed to be on the low end price wise and very knowledgeable. The repair works as expected. They thoroughly explained everything they did and why, then what to do to care for the rebuilt transmission.

It seems like every thing was working correctly. I was disappointed with staff not calling me and telling me that need a extra day. I called a 1/2 hour before they closed and I ask if my status of my vehicle but I was told that they need more time to finish the work in which they had all day. It made life hard to found out the last moment to find transportation for myself and daughter the next day!

Thourough explanation of all the possible problems with not getting cooled air. Ran the diagnostics, discovered a potentially costly problem but gave less expensive option and actually recommended that I go that way. Very knowledgeable, clearly experts at this and very patient in explaining the entire challenge. Nice people to work with.

Regular mechanic was booked out and Toyota dealer said there was 3 hour wait. Stopped at KC Martin main shop and they  were slammed with work also. They got on phone to their transmission location who said they could take me right away. Went there and nice waiting area to use while work was done
