Pine Forest Transmission & Repair Service

I am military (in between bases) and brought my truck to Pine Forest Transmission and Repair. I brought my truck in for service work to be done. I paid for services that did not happen. I wanted to bleed the brakes. Upon return nothing was fixed to include air in the brake lines. I wanted carb work done and that also turned out to not be fixed. I paid $ 85 for exactly nothing to be done with my truck. I will not be returning and would not recommend anyone take their business there. If you do choose to take your vehicle there then make sure you are getting what you are paying for. Hope this helps someone in the future.

Such a great place! The air conditioning in my car stopped working and I’m not used to the heat down here so I had to get it fixed ASAP. I called and was able to get in the same day. I was in and out of pine forest in about an hour and the cost was about $ 100. I’m from out of state and know NOTHING about cars but they explained what was wrong and the got the part that my car needed very quickly. Great customer service, and very trustworthy.

Found this place by the power of Unilocal,and due to all the good reviews. Decided to take my Kia sorento in to get the A/​C fix. with in a few minutes Terry knew what was wrong with it (A/​C clutch). Gave me a estimate ($ 800). Was stuck there with my family and had no other means of transportation and it was lunch time, so he offer his truck. We arrive at 1pm and they where finish by 4pm. That car runs smoother n cooler then ever. They are straight to the point.

AMAZING! Moved from NC to FL last week and a mechanic told us there was nothing wrong with the car even after diagnostics. Took it in and about 4 hours later had a smooth sailing car for $ 220.37 for new spark plugs, full diagnostics check, re-​gearing my engine and put my transmission and engine back to a full connection.
You won’t be disappointed in Terry and his family of a crew!

Look out! Another 5 star review & rightly so. Out of state & needed a place we could trust. These fellas took the time to explain what the problem was & literally we were in and out an hour & $ 150 later
We had been told by our good olé boys at our hometown place (uggggg) that they had fixed out check engine light & fixed the misfire that was happening for our van. $ 450 later. :(Soon the light came back on and misfiring reoccurred. Out of state ta boot.
The mechanic hooked us up to the computer for the diagnosis. Explained to us thoroughly showing us how and where the misfiring were happening. He proposed it was the 02 sensor.
Quoted us $ 150. Replaced it within an hour and she’s been purring ever since. No hiccups.
Very grateful to find folks who believe in their craft no matter what the work. I would recommend these fellas for locals & travelers alike. Oh and say hey to frisky the 16 year old shih tzu who is your waiting room pal. :)

They are awesome and work with you. They are also inexpensive compare to the rest. Would definitely recommend them. They rocked :)

Gotta give props to Terry & his staff. I came in without an appointment and an engine misfire :(Terry’s tech diagnosed the problem correctly (defect coil pack) and had me back on the road in UNDER AN HOUR!!!
And the total costs of this repair was less than a dealer would have charged for just the part!
We are new to the area, and it is refreshing to discover that competent, honest automotive repairs still exist!
Don’t let appearance sway ya. If you want fancy schmancy waiting rooms, then head over to the dealer and bend over!
Kudos to the Pine Forest crew!

Excellent turnaround time at a very reasonable price. I dropped it off, in the late afternoon, and it was ready the next afternoon. It’s hard to find quality mechanics that do good work, and don’t charge you an arm and a leg — especially in Pensacola, FL. This looks to be a long-​time family owned and operated business. I’m a car enthusiast, and am very hesitant to let others work on my car, but am limited with my free time. I highly recommend this shop for transmission work on all cars.
They just replaced the clutch/​flywheel friction plate/​pilot bushing/​throw out bearing on my ’03 Nissan 350z. The cost was a VERY reasonable $ 378, where-​as another mechanic quoted ~$ 450, and the dealership wanted over a thousand for ~4.5hrs of labor.
PS… They didn’t have any trouble with the fact that the car was lowered, in-​case your vehicle is.

Took Mazda in for break job. Had to return a couple weeks later — breaks making noise. Techs found defective part, replaced for free! Nice to see a shop stand behind thief work!!! 100% Positive Referral.

I have a well loved 1995 Ford Exploder — err, Explorer. It finally hit the wall about three weeks ago — the transmission went caput! The car got stuck in second gear, and wouldn’t go above 29 miles per hour!
I was expecting a rebuilt transmission to cost about $ 2000-​$ 2500. I was amazed when Pine Forest Transmission gave me a fixed price bid of $ 1300. Better than that, when they had a few unexpected discoveries in the course of rebuilding the transmission, they honored the original quote they had given us without additional charges.
I can’t tell you how impressed I am with Terry, and his entire team. They really did a stellar job, and the car is driving like a new car now. If you’re looking for a trustworthy transmission shop that does business the old fashion way (with a handshake), then this is the place to go.
