Report
I am very happy with the service and communication I received from Leon's Transmission. I would recommend them to anyone needing Transmission work done. Transmission repair is extremely expensive and finding the cheapest garage is not always the best decision. You can depend on Leon's quality work at a fair price.

I've been going here since I was a kid. I'm 42 now and the new customer service is very poor. I can't remember the guys name but he was very rude and just wanted to make money off of me.

I brought my 2015 Lexus GS 350 F sport for a transmission service. Awesome prices amazing customer service they had everything in stock ready to work on the car. Most shops don't wanna work on this car But at Leon's transmission they have trained technicians That don't have any problem working on this type of car, Plus I didn't have a ride back home and they gave me one super cool! I recommend this place 100% Thank you Chris H thank you Lupita for the ride!
