Transmission Repair Near Long View, NC

Long View borders Hickory on the west, so our dedicated transmission shop is practically next door. Drop it off and we'll call you with what we find.

Getting here from Long View: About 10–15 minutes to our Hickory shop, via US-70 or I-40 East.

Long View drivers are about as close to our shop as you can be without a Hickory address. That makes it easy to bring a vehicle in at the first sign of trouble, which is exactly when transmission problems are cheapest to fix. A slight delay into gear, a shift that’s started to feel firm, or a few drops of red fluid on the driveway are worth a look before they turn into something bigger.

A lot of local driving here is stop-and-go: short trips on US-70, a few miles on I-40, back and forth through town. That kind of driving keeps transmission fluid hot without ever giving it a long, easy run. Regular fluid and filter service helps a lot. When something has already failed, we diagnose before we recommend. That might mean a solenoid or valve body repair, a full in-house rebuild, or a sensible used unit for a vehicle with a lot of miles on it.

We work on CVTs too, and we’ll be honest that parts for some CVTs are hard to source. Call (828) 855-3444 to get started.

What we see around here

  • Town straddles the Catawba and Burke county line along US-70 and I-40
  • Short, frequent trips through Hickory traffic, the kind of driving that heats up transmission fluid
  • A mix of commuter cars, crossovers with CVTs, and work trucks

Visiting the shop

Can I drop off my vehicle before work?

Our hours are Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 6 PM. Call (828) 855-3444 ahead of time and we'll work out a drop-off that fits your schedule.

What if a rebuild costs more than my car is worth?

Then we'll tell you so. A used transmission may be the more sensible fix for an older, high-mileage vehicle, and we'll lay out both options honestly.
