I was told by other large repair franchises in town that I needed a new radiator and transmission to which I was obviously suspect. In my search for quality mechanic's in town I found Alvie's based on the other reviews and then talked with him on the phone. He listened to what I wanted and didn't just try to sell me stuff. In the end he found I did not need either a transmission or radiator but just some leaks that needed repair. Been a month and running great! Thanks Alvie! - Nate Dickinson, July 17, 2015 Birdseye 5 Star Review

"Thank you for the great review and bringing us your business."  Alvie

Alvie's has a customer for life! I was referred to Alvie's Transmission Service Unlimited Repair from another shop that I trust and respect and was not left disappointed. My issue was resolved quickly and respectfully with no hassles and 100% honesty.  The guys did a great job with diagnosing and troubleshooting my issue with the utmost respect. If I am ever in need of automotive repairs I will look towards Alvie's from this point forward.  Alvie's is proof that good mechanic shops still exist! Thanks, Alvie! - Michael Roach 5 Star Review on Birdseye 2-5-15

"It's good people like you who keep my doors open, thank you for letting me help you."  Alvie's

By far the BEST experience I have had with any transmission shop or automotive tech in general was with Alvie's Transmission Service Unlimited Repair Service in Jacksonville Florida. Alvie has a passion for his craft and takes the time to make sure you know what's going on, how and why. Not only did I get a great JASPER remanufactured transmission unit from Alvie for a great price, but I came out of the experience far more informed about the details of automatic transmissions than I had before. Follow up support was top notch and I felt like I mattered as a client. I have recommended Alvie a number of times and my friends have come away with the same great experience as I did. I will be back the next time I need transmission work, without a doubt. Huge thanks goes out to Alvie, Matthew and the whole shop (which by the way is clean and very well organized too). You can't go wrong with Alvie's!  - Keith, Birdeye Review 5 Stars

*TOP NOTCH** I am new to the Jacksonville area as I just moved here from Atlanta where it is extremely difficult to find a trustworthy mechanic. But Alvie, his wife, and the other mechanic Kevin are GREAT people and very knowledgeable. Although I only came in for a standard "oil change", they made me feel CONFIDENT & COMFORTABLE bringing my vehicle to them for any type of service. I am proud to say that Alvie's Transmission Service Unlimited Service is now my "GO TO AUTO-SHOP" ;-)  -  Leon

Alvie helped us so much last Dec. when our transmission died! He is very knowledgeable & answered all of our questions. His service was quick & made our Van run like new! Great Customer service and follow-up. - Heather

Want to express my sincere thanks to Alvie at Alvie's Transmission Service Unlimited Repair in Jacksonville Florida.  I took my Dodge truck into him and from the moment I walked into his shop and saw it...I knew I wanted this man working on my vehicle  Extremely well organized with every tool, part and piece of equipment immaculate and in it's own place...you could literally eat off his floors...I am not a mechanic by any stretch of the imagination...Alvie told me right off it may be a minor problem and he would check it out...as it turned out  it was not...my Transmission was shot (had almost 180,000 miles on it).  He then advised me I could go in one of two directions...I could replace it with a used transmission or a new JASPER re-manufactured transmission...he advised me based on his over 30+ years of experience...that if I put a used one in, I might get a good one that would last or I might get one that would go out in a very short time and they are risky (no warranty). He told me if he were I, he would opt for the new JASPER transmission with a three year warranty...I said Alvie, I am going to rely on your judgement and your experience and I'm going to opt for the new JASPER transmission...I know you wouldn't steer me wrong...to which he replied, "No, I would not...not intentionally anyway".

He then installed the new transmission in my truck and I have had it back now for over a month and it is running like new! I highly recommend Alvie and Alvie's Transmission Service Unlimited Repair Service, if you want to put your vehicle in the hands of a experienced professional and a good, decent, and honest man, take it to Alvie.  Rest assured, it is in good hands.Go by and see his shop and say Hi.  Tell him Dino sent you! -  Dino Cox, Jacksonville Florida as stated on our Facebook Page!
