Had a issue with my alternator going out on my car and being stranded 2 hrs away from home and they got me back on the road with a new alternator and they was great on the price of part and labor and was back on the road in less than 3 hrs and couldn't have been helped any better by anyone else. Really appreciate the service and will be going back to them if any problems arise in the future.

I wasn't prepared for all I needed done, but this shop did a wonderful job of updating me at every turn & did all they could to get me back rolling. Even with one last issue they weren't able to take care of, they were able to provide a specialist to help address the issue. The greatest thing about this business is their wonderful and caring demeanor led by the greatest shop office manager ever. Amy was the best!!! I recommend Trantham 10 out of 10!

UPDATE: This following paragraph still rings true into 2023! Just had my vehicle serviced for an issue with one problem, and they figured out the single cause that ended up also fixing EVERY SINGLE other issue that I didn't even come to have fixed this visit! My car is working perfectly now. My entire life banks heavily on reliable transportation. I can not express my gratitude enough. I refuse to go to any other mechanic. These people have always given me honest and straightforward advice and service and prices are heavenly affordable. This place has gone out of its way to assist me with my vehicle problems even during times when they don't even financially benefit. I wish I had all the money in the world so I could just find excuses to take my vehicle to them. I've had so many mechanic chains try to sneak in charges by claiming I needed my oil changed when I didn't and saying something needed replaced that was never broken, and Trantham's provides that security and peace of mind every single time, which is INVALUABLE when going through the stress of vehicular trouble. They really know their stuff!

I moved to Ringgold about four years ago and have been going to Trantham's for all of my car maintenance on my two cars. All the crew are reliable, dependable and do a great job. I can tell you that there have been times I have asked for service and they inspect the component and tell me I don't need it yet. I appreciate their honesty and integrity. They deliver prompt, cost effective and excellent service. Thank you David and the crew. Keith Fawcett

Been meaning to leave a review for this place for months and kept forgetting - I was traveling alone cross country this summer and got stranded in East Ridge with a brake fluid leak with no place to stay or friends/family to call. I found Tranthams on Google and went on a whim, they got me fixed up within the day and back on the road, even cost a bit less than my original quote. Everything has been running great since, thank you!

What a fantastic shop. James (Semper Fi!) and Sammy went above and beyond when my family was traveling and ran into trouble with my Jeep. The way they treated us is what every company in the world should strive for. They were compassionate, understanding and helpful. I'm forever grateful for our experience with this company and would recommend them to anyone in need of auto repairs. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I can't speak highly enough of these guys. Without going into details they fixed my daughter's car for a fraction of what the national repair shop in downtown Chattanooga was going to charge. I coordinated this remotely and they went above and beyond to help her. This is the only auto shop we will use in Chattanooga going forward.

After calling another company with horrible customer service and that company wanting to overcharge me, i'm súper grateful that others reviews of Tranthams urged me to cáll them. Not only was customer service better, i called not long before they were going to close and tow truck came quickly. Instead of having to be towed, David showed me how to get my gears unstuck and i was able to drive home AND they offered to refund most of the Money i paid over the phone. As hard as it is to find GOOD,HONEST mechanics, i KNOW where i will take my vehicles for any issues in the future. Thank you SO much Tranthams, Keep up the honest Good work, it is greatly appreciated!

What a great find. Our family had driven in from about 10 hours away, limping in on a bad wheel bearing hub. Tantham's was able to get us on the road the same day, and for a very reasonable price. They even came in under their estimate! Super nice people.

These guys are the best -- saved my life while traveling on I-75. I wish I could bring my cars to them all the time, but I'm in Michigan. After having serious brake trouble while on the road, just three days after a full brake job from a Ford dealer in Florida, we pulled into Trantham's with horrible loud noises. Turns out the dealer left off the emergency brake, but all the bolts and hunks of metal were clanging around, damaging the drums and more. Duane and his brother quickly diagnosed, got the parts needed and got me back on the road after a couple hours. I use to work on cars -- talking with them during the repairs, I could tell they are very honest and fair. If you're in the area, use Trantham's.

This guys are the best in town. They are honest and fairly priced. I have been having nightmare of experiences dealing with my Subaru at Kelly Subaru. And if the problem is not under warranty, I go to Trantham's. I even go to Trantham's to get Kelly work double checked. You absolutely can't go wrong with these folks.

I found Trantham's service center through a Google search. I had come to Chattanooga to visit family and was going to be here for a few days. I had towed my fifth wheel and noticed that the front of it was covered in oil. I had also been to Atlanta two months prior and had similar problems. Previously, they had replaced the ABS sensor on the top of the rear differential which was where the leak was. They, the other company was really nice but I felt that they were not really eager to help me. Needless to say, it was leaking again and it was due to aftermarket parts and lack of attention to detail. I pulled in to the RV park the night before and was searching for somewhere to go. I found Trantham's but was concerned as I didn't know anything about them, but they were right across the street. I felt like I should go to the Dodge dealer to have this done but didn't want to go that far. I showed up 20 minutes before they were scheduled to open to a very busy place as they were preparing for the day. I was asked if I could be helped, not shunned before business hours and my truck was taken into the stall for diagnosis. Before opening time, I knew what the problem was and what needed to be done. They ordered the part, accomplished the work and surprised me with an incredibly reasonable bill. I was prepared to pay much more than they charged as the other company had charged me double what they did and well look where I was, getting it fixed again. I would highly recommend Trantham's for your auto service, they even told me to come back by before I left and they would double check to make sure it was still good before I headed home to Texas. This is a class act. I could not give a higher recommendation than what I am.
