After Jim drove it and the tech had it in the garage for 15-20 minutes, Jim showed me two coffee cups; one with nice pink new fluid and the other with muddy burned fluid stating it was from my car. He quoted me $349 to remove transmission & reinstall. Once out he could diagnose and quote the cost to repair. Repair could cost $500 to $2000, no idea until it was out of the car. I brought my car to another shop. The had me watch as they drained the transmission of relatively clean but obviously not brand new, pink fluid. They adjusted the transmission, performed a routine service - all for about $100. The transmission is as good as new! Stay away from American at 1801 Belcher Rd. Largo!!
