Sakul Pranjal
I recently had a transmission oil change done at Mister Transmission for my 2006 Ford Explorer, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. Kyle was absolutely fantastic throughout the entire process. From the moment I arrived, Kyle was incredibly polite and professional. He took the time to explain the transmission service in detail and made sure I understood what work would be performed on my vehicle. What really impressed me was his willingness to go above and beyond by helping diagnose some additional issues with my car. Since my Explorer is an older vehicle, it requires careful attention and expertise. Kyle demonstrated both, treating my car with the care and precision it needs. He was patient in answering all my questions and provided honest recommendations for improvements without any pressure. The transmission oil change was completed efficiently, and my Explorer is running smoothly. It's refreshing to find a service professional who genuinely cares about doing quality work and ensuring customer satisfaction. I highly recommend Mister Transmission, and specifically ask for Kyle if you want someone who combines technical expertise with outstanding customer service. He made what could have been a stressful experience into a positive one.
