See Us Today for Reliable Transmission Repair
Every car contains a state-of-the-art transmission that ensures a smooth, engaging ride at any speed. The transmission is one of the most important parts of your vehicle, as it’s responsible for transferring the power from the engine to the wheels. Today’s vehicles have automatic, manual, or continuously variable transmission (CVT). The CVT is newer, but it works much like an automatic. Instead of gears, it relies on a system of belts and pulleys that generate a variety of different “ratios.” Regardless of which transmission your vehicle utilizes, U.S. Automotive is your trusted source for transmission repair and maintenance service in the greater Springfield, Missouri, area.

Automatic Transmission Service
For several decades now, automatic transmissions have been featured in countless makes and models. Today’s automatic transmissions incorporate complex electronics, but they’re still effortless to operate. Once you set the vehicle in motion by moving the shifter to ‘D’ (drive) and pressing the gas pedal, the transmission automatically shifts through the gear sequence (usually 6, 8, or 10) as the car accelerates. You need to concern yourself with only two pedals: the gas pedal and the brake pedal. Automatic transmissions are designed to last the vehicle’s life, but sometimes things can go awry. Damaged gears can present themselves as grinding or slipping sensations, and degraded transmission fluid is often the problem if you experience a delay in performance. A fluid leak is evident from bright red or dark red fluid beneath your car. If your car slips out of gear, you smell a burning odor, or you hear a humming or clunking noise, bring it to the transmission repair experts at our auto shop.
Manual Transmission Service
The manual transmission, also known as “stick shift,” is the oldest and simplest type of auto transmission. The focal point of this gearbox is a clutch pedal. When the driver presses down on the clutch, the engine’s energy stimulates the transmission’s input shaft, allowing the driver to shift gears. This is performed via a shifter, which the driver operates to move the car through its various gears (typically 6, 7, or 8). Manual gearboxes have significantly decreased in popularity for various reasons, but they remain a staple in automotive engineering. Like automatic transmission, various issues can crop up with manual transmissions that warrant transmission repair. Signs of a problem often include the clutch in some manner: a slipping clutch, a sticking clutch, or a dragging clutch, which means its exhibiting a grinding noise. If your transmission is having trouble staying in gear, whether from a worn synchronizer or fluid issue or if there is fluid leaking, it’s important to be vigilant and visit us for transmission repair at 330 E Kearney Street Springfield, MO 65803 at the first sign of an issue!
