Lakeland Transmission & Auto Service Lakeland Transmission & Auto Service is an independently owned shop in Monticello, MN that opened its doors in January of 1998. Though our business was started with a emphasis on transmission repair it soon become evident that there was a great deal of problems with the rest of the vehicles systems that would affect the transmission and so a certified general repair technician was added to the staff. As business grew so did the need for more equipment and space.

In the year 2000 we expanded our transmission rebuilding facilities, added 4 more hoists, and purchased more up to date equipment and added more staff. Our growth has allowed us to control the quality of our service and increase our commitment to our customers that they receive the best service and products available.

We have any of our repairs on our car and truck taken care of with Lakeland. Because of the time consuming head light repair on my Passat, he called and asked if we wanted the other one done before anything quit working. Saved us $300 since the bumper was already off my car. If there is something he cannot do, he sends us to what he feels is the best. He has never led us wrong! Highly recommend!

Russ the owner and his employees take care of your vehicle they don't try to sell you parts for car or truck or SUV. They tell what needs to be done right now and other things can wait later. True honest place to go doesn't matter where vehicle is he hires tow a towing company to bring to his shop.

I've had several vehicles serviced at this shop and have always been extremely happy with their service and prices. They've given me very reasonable quotes, and when it came time to pay up, it was less than quoted. Friendly, knowledgeable and no sales pressure to perform pointless maintenance. I will continue to use them in the future.

Wonderful staff, great work with outstanding follow up which is why I'm taking another truck to them Monday.

I just wanted to say how happy I am that we found Lakeland Transmission! We lost our previous mechanic of several years to a dealer shut down, and felt lost without them! It's so nice to know that we found a place that we feel so confident in the work! They are so professional and nice to talk with... The importance of that can't be underestimated, as car trouble is so stressful as it is!We will be bringing all of our car needs to them and we'd recommend them to anyone we know! Thank you! :)

We will be recommending your shop to anyone that needs any work done. We were told our Dodge truck might need a new engine. Within a few hours of bringing our truck in we new the answer. Quick service and a fair price is what we received. Fast and courteous. Thank You.

We just wanted to thank you for looking at the problem with our Lexus. You expalained our options in great detail and were very helpful. We truly appreciate your honesty. Everyone hears horror stories of repairs on cars that are very costly or unnecessary. Every time we have had work done at Lakeland Transmission we felt we were treated very fairly. Your dealing with us on the Lexus is just an example of your excellent work ethic. It is always a pleasure working with you. Thank you.
