Freeway Transmissions & Clutches - Salt Lake City, UT

In March of 1967 Gayle Nilson decided to use his vast automotive experience to start Freeway Auto Service in the heart of downtown Salt Lake City. The first 17 months as a general repair shop were very successful, and the future looked very bright. In August of 1968 Freeway Auto Service suffered a significant setback when Gayle was severely burned over 75% of his body. Due to Gayle's perseverance, a few dedicated employees and family support Freeway Auto Service was able to overcome this immense challenge and evolved into the successful company that exists today as Freeway Transmissions.

In the early 70's, Gayle decided to use the expertise of his labor force and expert in transmission fixing. Freeway became a well respected firm and built a name for itself along the Utah Wasatch Front. In the late 70's Gayle's insight and inspiration led to the development of a customized remanufacturing process that produced quality transmissions on a volume basis. This successful remanufacturing process is still utilized today.

The remanufacturing procedure spawned the growth of Freeway Transmissions beyond the valleys of the Wasatch Front to several states in the Intermountain West. Freeway's wholesale and retail operation were based entirely in its centralized downtown location until 1988 when growth necessitated the need to expand. An additional fixing facility was opened in Murray, Utah on 900 East just North of Interstate 215 and still exists there today.

In 1991, a partnership started the Torque Converter Company on 400 South in downtown Salt Lake City. The firm started remanufacturing a wide variety of torque converters as a complement to the already successful transmission venture. Due to the growth of both the transmission and torque converter company, a decision was made to consolidate both remanufacturing processes in the same building. In May 1997 Torque Converter Company moved and was followed by Freeway Transmissions seven months later to our current facility on 1700 South in Salt Lake City. This 45,000 square foot location exists today as Freeway's Production Center and Corporate Headquarters. The original location on 600 South remained in operation as a repair facility.

Rob   from   West Jordan, UT I recommend Freeway Transmissions with no reservations. Since 2008, I have taken my personal vehicles, my son's car (while he was at Basic Training), and now all the cars from my business to the shop in West Jordan, UT. I get outstanding service from Keith and his team. They always diagnose the problems quickly and accurately, then give me options to get me back on the road. They've done everything from major transmission work to brakes and oil changes for me. The repairs were always quick, economical (I have checked around), and the customer service is always very friendly and professional. I DO recommend Freeway Transmission to my friends and family whenever their services are needed.

Kathleen R.   from   West Jordan, UT Keith was wonderful! The repairs were made the day I brought the car in. I was glad to learn that you do repairs other than transmissions. Next time I need vehicle repairs, I will definitely come to Freeway Transmissions.

Kelsey W.   from   Provo, UT Mario and Gordon went WAY above and beyond the call of duty to help make my experience one to remember. I give them five ***** and highly recommend them.
