Quality Transmission Parts Used in Repairs

At Mister Transmission Sault Ste Marie, the type of transmission parts used depends on the specific repair, vehicle type, and manufacturer recommendations. The goal is always to provide reliable, long-lasting solutions while maintaining transparency and performance standards. All parts used meet strict quality and safety requirements as part of professional transmission service and repair.

New Transmission Parts

New transmission parts are commonly used when replacing critical components such as sensors, solenoids, seals, or electronic controls. New parts are often preferred for precision, durability, and compatibility, especially in modern systems like automatic transmissions and CVT transmissions.

Rebuilt Transmission Parts

Rebuilt transmission parts are frequently used during a transmission repair or rebuild. These parts are carefully inspected, reconditioned, and tested to meet performance standards. Rebuilt components are commonly used in manual transmissions and complete rebuilds, offering a cost-effective and reliable option.

Use of Used Transmission Parts

In most cases, Mister Transmission Sault Ste Marie avoids using unverified used transmission parts due to reliability concerns. When used parts are considered, they are evaluated carefully and discussed with the customer beforehand.

Amazing!! We were in a pinch as we were from outl of town and they did everything they could to help us. It was a Friday afternoon and they called around until they found the parts needed and even stayed late to do the repairs. Both the mechanic and manager were very willing to accommodate and very polite and courteous. Otherwise we would have been stranded for the weekend. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

Mister Transmission provides truly exceptional service. When our car broke down, they were quick to diagnose and problem solve the issue, even when that meant weeks of back-and-forth communication as me and my partner worked to figure out how to get our car back to the United States. Thank you so much Devon and Joelle, we are so grateful to have stumbled upon your garage and cannot say enough about how fantastic you guys are!

Abigail Schuen
I got stranded in Canada after my car broke down after crossing the U.S. border and Mister Transmission was a life saver!! They fit us in even though they were busy, let us sit inside until we figured out next steps, and even drove us (and all of our roadtripping stuff) to the car rental facility! They truly helped us figure out what were our best opinions and eased so much stress. I cannot reccomend Mister Transmission enough!!
