Honest! Honest! Honest! A bum transmission was installed in my truck. It was said the rear differential was the problem. They checked it thoroughly. The rear differential wasn't the problem. They charge me a discounted service fee for what they did instead of charging for what they could have both honestly and dishonestly.

A1 Gear & Auto was recommended by others as a reputable shop. Brought my F150 in for a differential service. They are honest and took the time to look over my recently purchased truck. I have already brought our other vehicle in for service. Will recommend and continue to use them.
