We recently took our 2008 Chrysler Town and Country in for trans problems. Both Susan and JJ were very friendly and thorough! I read their reviews and chose them. I’d do it again if I had to! They are good people and I’d rather support a locally owned business than some chain or dealership! They’ve taken great care of us and I highly recommend them! Total spent was right around $6k for remanufactured trans with unlimited miles warranty, both axles, fluids/filters, oil change, trans mount, brakes and couple other pieces. Compare that to others and the choice is clear! Go to S&L and you won’t be sorry! Shop local and support private business...

I would like to Thank Ms. Susan for working with me ..I live in Cameron and went looking for someone to work on two of my vehicles ,both needing Transmissions and Ms. Susan answered all my questions and the price was right. Well when I went in to make a payment I meet Ms. Susan granddaughter who was very cheerful and good with the paperwork. And there was Lance the mechanic who is very good at his job he believes in doing a job and do right the first time and uses new parts and if he notices something else wrong and course he fixes it. I would advise everyone and anyone if your can is broke down take it to S &L Transmissions and by the way th...

So I've had S&L transmission in Sanford do my transmission twice. Even though it was expensive, it still is better than buying a new car. It had it done very quickly, troubleshooted it when needed, but overall, I've had a good experience and they've always stuck by with their warranty and their quality of work. They offer a 6 month warranty and they stand by that. Most businesses will only either offer 60 or 90 days. Thank you Susan. Mark Grindle

S&L is an amazing auto shop! Their communication is top-notch, and they take the time to explain what’s best for your car and why. They’re honest, fair, and truly focused on giving you the best value—not just the highest price. If you’re looking for a trustworthy shop in Sanford that delivers quality work and great customer service, this is the place to go!

4.5 stars I can’t say enough good things about S & L Transmission. After searching for over an hour in every direction, this was the only shop willing and able to take on my 5-speed Tremec under a ’71 Chevelle. When you’re dealing with a full resto-mod full of aftermarket parts, all the simplicity of a classic build goes right out the window — and Susan and her team never backed down from the challenge. From start to finish, Susan, Lance, and their office manager, Victoria, were easy to communicate with, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. I’ll admit I’m not the easiest customer — I ask a lot of questions (and then a few more) — but they...
