Gene Brown's Transmission

Nov 13, 2024

Got a catalytic converter and o2 sensor replaced here. They're priced reasonably well and seem to be an honest bunch. It's hard to find a good honest mechanic now a days, I would definitely recommend Chris and his team.

Superior customer service! All the guys were so very kind! They were fast and very fair affordable pricing. I'll definitely be coming back for all my automotive needs. They blow any competition away!! I was able to call and have an appointment scheduled right away before i was going out of town. Only needed a maintenance service but they are awesome!!

I can't say enough good things about the whole team over at Gene Brown in BrookHollow. From the moment I walked in, Cris made me feel like they genuinely cared about giving me the best service possible. Unlike many shops, he took the time to fully explain what was going on with my car and helped me understand which repairs were truly necessary and which were not. They went above and beyond to source parts at the best price, and they even gave me options to fit my budget without sacrificing quality. Their honesty and reliability stood out to me the most. There was no pressure to approve unnecessary repairs or services, which I greatly appreciated. It's rare, very rare, to find an auto repair shop that values transparency and customer satisfaction over profit, and Gene Brown is truly a gem in that regard. Highly recommended to anyone looking for an honest, customer-first auto repair experience.

I've been coming to Gene Brown for many years. Cris is always very honest with me and only performs the services REQUIRED. I really appreciate that and I recommend all my friends to come to Gene Brown on San Pedro.

I’ve been bringing all my cars to Cris and his crew. Including my family members vehicles, we’ve been nothing but satisfied with their work and reliability after the repairs have been made. Thanks Gene Brown Transmisson!

Rebuilt the transmission, transfer case and troubleshoot multiple issues with my 20 year old Jeep. Excellent service and honest hard working crew. Thank you.

Chris has taken care of multiple vehicles for our family and follows up to make sure work was done to our satisfaction. 05 Expedition and 17 Transit.

I have had a good experience with Gene Brown's transmissions. They changed my transmission fluid with no problem. Chris, the Manager, said I had an oil leak When I went to Valvoline, I was a quart low! Excellent work!

Wonderful transmission shop! Took our box truck first to another shop for a scheduled repair and wasted an entire day when they said they ordered the wrong part but in reality just didn’t get around to doing the job. Called and talked to Chris and they promptly fit us in, got it repaired within a day. Loved their professionalism and affordability. I’m a fan and will definitely be back. Thank you!

People here try to steal your vehicle after they work on it

Chris and his team figured out why my bmw x1 was blowing white smoke out of the exhaust. He communicated well, was very personable, and fair pricing. I highly recommend him for any car issues. Was taking my car to premiere1 but will now take it to Gene Brown.

Chris was awesome. I had an error code on my 2017 Nissan Titan XD. After taking it to the dealer, the dealer wanted to charge $10k for a new transmission. I called Gene Brown Transmission and discussed the error code with Chris. He researched the code and told me what the probable cause of the error code. I had the dealer make my truck drivable and took it to Gene Brown on San Pedro. Chris and his team took pictures of the transmission pan and showed very little shavings. He quoted the parts and repairs and saved me about $6500. I did not need a new transmission, only the speed sensor, which was part of the transmission valve body. Chris and his team are straight-up and honest. I will be taking my truck there from now on.

Had an issue with our Infiniti QX70 transmission not shifting beyond 3rd gear. Cris had our car picked up from our home and quickly diagnosed the problem. Unfortunately the part was expensive and on back order. It took a while to fix, but Cris and team fixed the issue as soon as the part arrived and at a reasonable price compared to what the Infiniti dealer was going to charge.

The mechanics at this place know their stuff and walk you through every piece. I had a clutch replaced on an '89 Jeep Wrangler and received text photos the entire time to update me on progress and for the option to have additional work done. The end result was quality work at a fair price. I recommend this place to all my friends and family.

Cris and his mechanics are extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend them. Cris is very nice and super easy to talk to you and explains everything to you especially if you don't know much about cars. I'm sending him another one of my vehicles for transmission work.

Garret was perfect! Great service, quality and pricing!

I have used Gene Brown on brookhollow for some time now. I used to take my old car there and received nothing but top notch service! Cris and his team kept me going for 17 years in that car before I decided to sell it. While I have not needed his services since buying a new car for a few years, something came up and the first place I thought of was Cris at gene brown. I absolutely did not want to take it to the dealer and leave it for 2 weeks or until they got around to it. Cris ordered the part I needed, called me when it came in, then gave me a ride to & from his shop and installed it in just under an hour…how great is that! I wouldn’t take my car anywhere else. Cris and his team are the best!

I’ve been traveling to San Antonio on a project there. My 2007 tundra started to act up this past weeks trip. Loss of power and heaviness I what I felt. I ended up at Gene Browns. They were very helpful and got me back on road fast! Final cost $450. They saved me!!!

THEY WILL HOLD YOUR CAR HOSTAGE This has to be the worst mechanic shop I’ve run in to. Not only will they take your business they will hold your car hostage before anything is done. Everything they have touched has messed up in one way or another is asinine to believe they are competent. A company should get your vehicle in when next in line. Not this place you will see tons of work trucks getting done well before your vehicle because that’s the steady income. Then when your car comes around it just so happens it needs more work done on it. They over charge and like to think they push their weight around. I will never take a vehicle to them again.

Tony and everyone here are life savers! When my vehicles transmission went bad, I was very stressed. They have worked with me like no one would I am extremely thankful for that! 10/10 recommend!

I’ve known Garrett for a long time and know he provides nothing but the best to his customers. I asked questions and was given detailed answers and accurate price quotes! Thank you for always being a great company to work with. I highly recommend Gene brown transmission and Garrett to anyone looking.

Gene Brown’s was super quick, honest, and inexpensive with my car repairs. They exceeded my expectations and the pricing was very fair. When I am in San Antonio, I will take my car here.

Apr 27, 2024

This shop and the people are top tier when it comes to customer service and repair. They were transparent with me the whole way and even helped me with options when my transmission went out. As anybody who’s had to pay for a transmission can tell you, it’s a stressful experience but the guys here without a doubt helped me through it.

Does the basic but still having issues on the car. Avoid this place

I am a teacher and had major issues with my car. I have to have transportation as a single mother, I don’t have any other way to get to work. I called Gene Brown on a Friday night to leave a message and Cris answered. I told him my situation and he had me bring my car in the next morning! He promised to get my car fixed and even offered me transportation to work. He graciously fixed it for a reduced price and I was able to get back to my life! He is amazing and very knowledgeable. I will always go to him with my car needs from now on. He does it all. Transmissions are what he is known for but he does it all. Thank you Gene Brown! So many of us need support! You sure supported!

Chris was amazing, best experience I've had with a mechanic since I've moved to san antonio

Chris at Gene Brown Transmission has done a great job for me everytime. I have had both my daughter’s vehicle, and mine repaired here. We are so very pleased to finally have a person whom I can trust and speaks openly and honest about the repairs that needed to be done. He troubleshoots the problem thoroughly to ensure not to replace parts that don’t need to be replaced. I am pleased with the work that Chris and his team has done for me and my daughters. Thank you and job well done.

Dec 27, 2023

Great service and thorough work! Will use them for all my transmission services!

Nov 27, 2023

Called for a quote and to ask his opinion. Really helped me figure some things out. Thanks so much!

Excelente atención al cliente buen servicio

Gene Brown’s Transmission has consistently provided excellent service for many years for my vehicle. If your car is having issues, you can trust that this shop will take care of you and get you back on the road as soon as they can. They always do a great job and are honest about prices. I’m very happy with the work done each time I use this shop, and it is my go-to recommendation place for all vehicle related issues for my friends and family.

Nov 27, 2023

Honest and straight forward... There is a reason the shop has been there for so long Chris is one of the few good guys left in the automotive world

Nov 27, 2023

I took my sons car in after purchasing it. Let's just say. I purchased a lemon. Chris has been more than helpful to help me with my investment. Transmission redone and he's always going above and beyond to make sure I'm happy.

Nov 27, 2023

They did a good job repairing but could have done better at keeping us informed and apprised of delays and changes in schedule and status. Took longer than promised but didn't tell us what was going on unless we called them.

Nov 27, 2023

They fixed my issues and I will recommend them to everyone!
