Granite Falls is just across the Catawba River from Hickory, so a dedicated transmission shop is a short trip down US-321. Whether it's a lake truck, a commuter car or a CVT crossover, we'll find out what's really wrong first.
Getting here from Granite Falls: About 20 minutes to our Hickory shop via US-321 South.
Life around Granite Falls often involves the water. Pulling a boat out of Lake Rhodhiss or Lake Hickory on a steep, wet ramp is one of the hardest things you can ask of a transmission. Add daily runs on US-321 and the hilly roads around town, and it’s easy to see why transmission fluid here works harder than the owner’s manual assumes.
The good news is that a lot of transmission trouble can be prevented. A fluid and filter service on schedule, with the transmission, transfer case and differentials all covered for trucks that tow, does more to protect a drivetrain than almost anything else. When something has already gone wrong, our shop is about 20 minutes down US-321 in Hickory. We road test it, scan it and check the fluid before we recommend anything.
If you drive a crossover or sedan with a CVT, we work on those too. We’ll be upfront that CVT parts can be hard to come by, and we’ll tell you your realistic options before you commit. Call (828) 855-3444.
More often than the 'normal' schedule. Towing adds heat, and heat breaks down fluid. Ask us when you call and we'll suggest an interval that fits how you use the truck.
Yes. We diagnose and repair CVTs, though parts for some units are hard to source. We'll tell you up front what's realistic for your vehicle.
