HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. I drive a Chevy Trailblazer and recently suffered my second blown transmission in less than two years. When I called Capitol, the staff was very courteous, very professional, and highly knowledgeable about what they were doing. They rebuilt my transmission for a reasonable price and guaranteed their work with a three year 100k mile warrantee. My car has not driven as well as it now does since the original transmission came out. I am so satisfied that I personally called them to thanked them for a job well done. It feels like brand new again and I am loving it. - Norris S.

First of all, Brian and Paul at Capital Transmission are regular guys who understand and put their customers first. I needed a tranny and Paul was up front about the price of the it and what was needed to be done. When the truck was finished everything was working properly. Brian went out of his way to fix a few other things that were wrong about the truck on his own, which I appreciated. I would highly recommend Capital Transmission, thank you again Paul and Brian! - Madelyn B.

Paul & Brian at Capital Transmission & Auto were awesome! My car was leaking transmission fluid. They took the car evaluated it and fixed it at a very reasonable price. What more could you ask for! Highly recommend for any auto repair. - Michael D.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! I called them this morning and told them the problem I was having with my car, they fixed it within hours. very affordable. Go see Paul & Brian at Capitol Transmission - Damion S.

I cant write how nice Paul is in this short review. Im so glad that i met him and he helped me a lot. His personality and professionalism is on very high level. - MR

This business and their team are above any beyond any regular repair center. I expect good service and value no matter where I go but these guys in my first interaction with them show they go above and beyond. Highly recommended! I can say I've never worked with a service center I have liked or done business with twice, nor have ever recommended one in my life, but these guys will gain all my future business simply due to honesty and trust. - Mike V.

Paul and his team are friendly, thorough, and above all, trustworthy. Despite a decided lack of car-knowledge, Paul walked me through each step of inspection of my vehicle without any technical jargon or shady fees and practices. I've definitely found my go-to for any and all things related to my vehicle, and couldn't recommend Capitol Transmission enough! If I could give 10 stars, I would! - Patrick G.

I highly recommend Capitol Transmission and Auto Care. Paul and Brian were professional and diligent. Capitol Transmission extended courtesies that I would have otherwise had to pay for if those tasks were performed by any another shop or dealership...I received quotes from three other shops/dealerships and Capitol Transmission’s quote was lower and offered a 3 year/100,000 mile warranty. If you have transmission issues, look no further! Take my advice and bring your vehicle to Capitol Transmission. - Madeline N.

This place is awesome! When my transmission went, Paul and his team took care of it in a timely manner and with so much professionalism. Paul is extremely knowledgeable and his customer service is impeccable. I was more than satisfied with the results and would recommend this place to anyone with no hesitation. After my encounter here, its no wonder why this Capital Transmission takes so much pride in their business. - Mabel B.

Thank you for all your help getting me back on the road. Great job - and all with a smile! - Mike K.
