Pat Barrett Transmissions 135 Bergenline Avenue, Westwood, NJ 07675

"Rich & crew replaced the 46RE trans in my 1999 Dakota RT. Previous shop: was Gold Seal, closed, in Upper Saddle River. Big trans, 5.9 engine and a tight fit. A Perfect job, + reversed flowed the trans cooler. 4 years later, it runs perfect, driven 366 days a year, towing, and loaded with tools or heavy Home Depot items. Repeat customer, I travel from Long Island for this shop and I'm frequently stuck in traffic for hours on the GW Bridge. Trans: never over-heats, and shifts perfect."

"Rich and his crew are VERY knowledgeable, VERY professional, and straight shooters. Potentially saved me from spending thousands of dollars by correctly identifying a problem another place couldn’t, and quickly! I cannot recommend them enough and I will absolutely be coming back if my car needs other work. THANK YOU!!"

"DO NOT GO HERE!!! I left my review below with what these people did to my car already. I’m coming back for the second time because rich decided to call me and proceed to tell me how Honda is wrong and he’s being working on cars for 40 years. On top of that proceed to hang up on me and curse at me. And claim I started cursing at him first. On top of that rich then proceeds to tell me “ it’s a legal law when your car is messed up and I fixed it you have to bring it back here “ these people are delusional and don’t know what they are doing nor what they’re talking about! Once I called back the second time after they hung up on me twice and informed them I was recording our conversation they hung up on me a third time. And incase they want to reply and say this never happened email me and I will gladly send you the voice recordings of our conversations. save yourself and your car DO NOT GO HERE! Secondly let’s address there reply. To my original post Yes I did bring them my car and yes the clutch was wasted seeing as I bought the car from someone used and they were informed of this on top of the fact that I was bringing my own parts all brand new. When the car left yes it did work for a while but if they took the time to read they would see they adjusted the pressure on my clutch petal meaning it was wearing the clutch down quicker. Also when I left there shop that day they hadn’t connected the sensors in my car back so half way home I noticed I couldn’t even see my speed. I had to turn around and go back to the shop for them to plug in said sensors. Also these people have a personal beef with Honda because they assume everyone must go to the same Honda dealership. I took my car into Honda not thinking it was a clutch issue because it had just been fixed 8-9 months prior. I know how to drive a manual car they should learn how to work on them considering there only argument is “ I’ve been doing this for 40 years “ well you’ve been doing it WRONG for 40 years And also notice they reply to continue to argue. I just stated my opinion that’s all. 1. They called me and proceeded to argue and curse at me as I showed in my picture. 2. I actually did record the whole conversation and he proceeded to continue to hang up on me multiple times and curse at me. My driving skills are fine these are old men who can’t evolve with time they don’t know what they’re doing."

"DO NOT BRING YOUR CAR HERE!!! It will absolutely be the worst thing you ever did! SAVE YOURSELF ! Got my clutch replaced with them about 8-9 months ago. Car started giving me issues to go into gears so I took it to Honda. Honda removed the transmission and showed me proof that “ pat garrett transmissions “ adjusted my pressure in my clutch petal causing the clutch to be worn down quicker. On top of that there were burn marks from the amount of pressure being applied and my flywheel had to be resurfaced. And the pressure plate was flatted as you can see in the photos . These people are a total scam! And I will be taking legal action against them seeing as Honda provided me proof with photos. Ridiculous!"

"The Honda dealer told me that “my transmission was NOT repairable and needed to be replaced for $4400.00. “. Richie at Pat Barrett Transmission looked at the car and repaired it in about 1 hour. SAVED me over $4000.00. This shop is personable and COMPETENT. WELL WORTH THE TRIP."
