My drive axle snapped and I had to get my car towed. I was referred to Nick's precision transmission and I wouldn't go anywhere else. Brian, the mechanic, is awesome and honest. They let me know everything that needed to be done on the vehicle and didn't give me a crazy price. My car was fixed and I didn't miss a beat with work.

Hands down, the most polite and professional auto repair shop i've been to. I see why discount tire recommends them. They've done great work on my vehicles.

Nick place is like home no matter what you are going through but always remember when you have family work for you that you look at both sides because they come in thinking this is their family and they get into their own feelings. Don't forget people are watching you because you are an important part of the company working at the front desk no matter what and you have to have tough skin but be polite when you don't want too. Always talk to your family afterward because maybe they can come up with another way to express their self and make them feel better don't jump in the situation with family

I purchased new tires and need an alignment so I made an appointment at Nick's. I'm only available on the weekends so it was a couple of weeks for my appointment. Little wait and my car was serviced in a timely manner. Nick and the others were very curtious, friendly, and professional. While I waited, I heard Nick interact with a number of customers and treated everyone with respect and was upfront.

My car came out driving as straight as a laser beam. I would recommend Nick's for an alignment or any other service.

@ Nick's Precision Transmission. They treat you like family. Nick himself goes over and beyond to make sure that your needs are met. But don't just take my word for it go see for yourself, Tell them you heard about them in Paul's review and see for yourself. You'd be glad you did!

I was told about Nick's Transmission by a Employee who told me I have nothing to worry about he takes care of everything with the Warranty Company!
Since I've been to the Dealership and was taken for 2 Transmissions at the time of visiting Nick's Shop.
And being in the Managers Life since he was in the 1st Grade I knew I would finally get the Job done Right.
The Day I went there they put it on the Rack, told me to take it Back to the Dealership!
Turning my Business away, Mgr won't speak to me.
Since then I've had 2 more Dealership Transmissions!
The 1st of the 2 was Slipping

The exceptional reviews were on target for Nick’s and I’m all the richer for waiting a month for an appointment. I purchased a Groupon wheel alignment back in August 2020 and now my brakes seem to rub. I admit I was late for the appointment armed with an expired coupon but Nick told me if I could wait he would try to fit me in. A short time later Nick told me my brakes were at 50% and my car was aligned. I would highly recommend Nick’s especially to women who want an honest assessment of their car repairs and cost. Did I mention the waiting area is small but it seemed large because of the

Hands down the best service shop in the Chicagoland area. The crew is hardworking, honest, and always provide excellent communication.

Our car is 21 years old & very fussy, the team at Nick's keeps us going strong no matter what the issue is. We're former Honda dealership customers and the experience we had there drove us to look into repair shops all over the city. None, and I mean 0% of them, gave us the 5 star quality & customer service that we've gotten at Nick's.

Even AAA's recommended "premier service center" was a dismal experience when it came

They took great care of me! On price and quality work on my work truck! I ended up having problems 2,1/2 years later due to mother nature. Yes it was out of warranty? It didn't matter to them. They treated it as if it was still under warranty. I cant even begin to tell you what this meant to me and my family. So yes I strongly recommend them. Its also family business and they make you part of it.

Though I did not get any service done with Nick, he was kind enough to get on the phone with me to discuss issues with transmissions for the model/make of my son's car, and give me some perspective as to how I should help my son proceed.

I appreciate the conversation, and thanks to Nick, I think I have a solid approach to getting the issue resolved. This is a promise: if I have any issues with any transmission on any vehicle in my house (4 cars), Nick has my business. Thanks, Nick...your time and expertise was really appreciated.

Side note: if any of you readers have a 2015-16 Ford Focus

This place had the best customer service that I had ever experienced. Nick explained in detail what needed to be fixed. After the service was completed we took my car on a test drive to make that I was satisfied. He also advised me to come in for a two week checkup to make sure that my vehicle transmission was still running well, no charge. This service also came with a two year warranty.

I haven't lived in the south side burbs for long so finding a great auto repair shop with great service and reasonably priced is hard to find. I was lucky to be recommended to Nicks by another great company discount tires in crestwood. I first brought my car here for alignment and brakes. Everything was great. I'm 42 and it's hard to find any company that still values its customers with respect and a very very family feeling. It's something that I believe has been lost in the customer service trade. I highly recommend Nicks. It's a place I would send my mom to.

My family and I were on a two week road trip and we ended up having transmission problems when we got to Chicago. My wife found Nick's Transmission online and it had great reviews so I decided to drive down there to see if they could take a look. My transmission needed to be rebuilt because it was so bad. Nick, Jim and the whole team were awesome and they were able to rebuild my transmission in one day. They basically saved our vacation!! Jim gave me a ride to the train and picked me up the next day when it was ready. I highly recommend these guys!

Nick and his staff do great work and Nick is a pleasure to work with. I have been bringing all my cars to him for the past 5 years. He works closely with my warranty company for covered repairs and is very understanding when you have to pay out-of-pocket. I don't take my car anywhere else.

These guys are true professionals. They went above and beyond to tend to Nissan Altima. Every time I use them they are reasonable and are very friendly and are customer orientated. I 100% recommend them.

Carmax referred me to Nick's and I have never been more satisfied! Nick is the most honorable, polite, knowledgeable and genuine person I have ever met. His staff is really friendly (especially Jimmy) and the service is excellent! Nick kept me in the loop during the entire repair process and if you are not happy, he isn't happy. He is always friendly and the customer service is excellent and the prices are very reasonable. From now on this will be the only auto repair shop to touch my vehicle!

The shop did fix my issue...but only after several trips back to report the same initial problem. By several I mean 5 or 6 times. this happened over the course of 8 months or so. They did eventually fix the problem but that was after they replaced my transmission(which was not even what they fixed to cure my problem) and $2k later! I wouldn't say that it is a bad shop, but I wouldn't say that it is a good shop. Plus, everytime you visit you will come out smelling like cigarettes.
