WHY JAY EGGE AUTOMATIC SERVICE?

TESTIMONIALS

  • "Jay Egge Automatic Service is considered one of the premiere transmission and driveline repair facilities in the Tri-State area and they live up to their reputation every day with excellent customer service and some of the best technicians utilizing state-of-the-art equipment in the industry."

    Max Mauer

  • “Jay Egge Automatic Service has been a very important option for Nordstrom's since 1988 because when they analyze a product - whether it is for warranty or for something that didn't test well at our shop - they'll give us a very straight opinion about what is needed for the repair. And it doesn't mean just because they open up and look inside that it needs to be completely rebuilt. Sometimes they find small problems that can be fixed for a lot less expense and still have the unit be completely functional and operational as a good used unit for us. That's why we drive a lot of business to Jay Egge Automatic Service. There are a number of transmission businesses in our area. Jay Egge Automatic Service has proven to Nordstrom's that they want to work with us whether it is a partial repair, a welding job to fix a broken case, or a complete rebuilt unit that we may need for our installation and diagnostic center.”

  • "Shout out to Jay Egge Automatic Service. They inherited a huge mess from another transmission shop, and never gave up on our dually! Now it's working great!"
