"SIMPLY THE BEST!!! This review is LONG overdue. My husband and I have been bringing out vehicles to Henry Sr. and Henry Jr. for several years. This is a family run business, not a chain or corporation.
Their name says it all - INTEGRITY. Period. Amazing service. Quality work. Lowest prices. You can trust them. They will treat you like family."

Transmission fluid is vital to the overall operation of your vehicle. In addition to lubricating the transmission’s internal parts, it also prevents overheating and metal-to-metal contact.
How often your transmission fluid will need to be replaced depends upon the make and model of your vehicle. Your vehicle’s manufacturer will recommend the correct interval. However, transmission fluid that looks dark brown, dirty, or sludgy should be replaced.

"Henry Jr and Henry Sr are very professional, thorough, cool, helpful, knowledgeable, and all around great people that will explain your issue and recommend the best course of action to fix it. I didn't get the feeling that they were trying to cut corners or scam me out of my money. They showed me the issue I was having and wanted to do the job correctly so that I won't continue to have the issue in the near future. They represent the name of their company, Integrity Transmission,very well and I recommend this shop to anybody that needs help with their vehicle."

What is a brake bleed?
A brake bleed is the process of removing air from the brake lines to restore your brake system to its best. Over time, small amounts of air can become trapped in your vehicle’s brake line. Air in the brake lines can decrease the effectiveness of your brakes significantly. If your brakes feel soft or spongy, you may need a brake bleed.
October is Fall Car Care Month, and now is the time to remember how addressing certain items like brakes, tires, belts and hoses and fluids, including oil, antifreeze, steering, brake, transmission, and wiper fluids, will help keep your car running smoothly and efficiently, saving money at the gas pump.
Other areas of the vehicle, such as heating and air conditioning systems, wipers, and lights, should also be checked periodically. #CarCare saves you money!

"My car wouldn't start one morning so I called AAA. After determining it was the starter, I had them tow it to Integrity at 8a. As per usual, Henry and the folks there were able to diagnose the problem and fix it, same day... on short notice. I will always recommend them, as they do excellent work and are beyond knowledgeable and friendly. "

"Integrity Transmission was recommended to me by a close friend. Like many others, I'm very skeptical, towards mechanics. As soon as I met Henry Jr, I felt very comfortable, very trusting. I left my precious car in the most reliable, trustworthy, integrous professionals I have met in such a long time. Fitted with strong family values that extend to the public, to their community and their customers. Their communication, honesty and reliability are unquestionable. I HIGHLY recommend Integrity Transmission. I have my precisions 2004 Mitz back and she drives beautifully, faithfully. Thanks so much Henry(s)!!"

"I wouldn't trust anyone else to work on all my vehicle's transmissions as well as any other repairs. Whatever repairs they do they do right every time saving me money & time. Incredibly honest, if Henry Sr or Henry Jr can't fix it they will point you in the direction of someone who can rather than try to repair certain vehicles or systems (other than transmissions) which they aren't confident to work on if it requires specialized tools. You can trust these guys 100%."

Is it bad to drive your car if it doesn’t have a gas cap?
While it isn’t a major issue if caught early on, you don’t want to continue driving without a gas cap for an extended period of time. You’ll lose gas and debris and moisture can get into the fuel tank, causing performance and fuel efficiency issues over time.
It’s inexpensive to fix, so take care of a lost, missing, or broken gas cap!

This is your vehicle’s oil pressure warning light. While it may look like a genie in a bottle, it’s actually an image of an old fashioned oil can.
It indicates that your car is either low on oil or your oil pump isn’t circulating enough fluid. This is a critical warning light, since driving with low oil can quickly damage your vehicle’s engine.
As the days get shorter, it becomes increasingly important to check that your vehicle’s wipers and lights are all in proper working order.
You may not be able to see from the driver’s seat if a light isn’t working, so take the time to test all exterior lights and replace any if needed. Also, test your wiper blades and replace them if they skip, smear, squeak, or appear to be dried out or frayed.

"This is the only place I trust. I took my Mazda to other locations & was told I needed to replace multiple parts; each quote was outrageous. I took my car to Integrity & they told me what I should replace and what I DIDN’T need to replace. Exposing the other shops I went to before. I felt like I was being helped by family. Thank you guys so much!"

When’s the last time you replaced your vehicle’s cabin air filter?
The cabin air filter, typically located behind the glove compartment, is responsible for filtering the air that comes into the cabin of your vehicle. This helps to remove pollutants and other contaminants.
Cabin air filters typically need to be replaced every 20,000 miles or so, and breathing in dirty air can be a danger to your health.

"Perfect place to go to if you need a mechanic they are they best. Very professional and helpful knowledgeable personnel at this establishment recommend it would give 10 stars if I could ! Ask for Henry !"
