Long running Transmission repair scam going on for years

If anybody is reviewing this scam report then they should read the whole report because it will save you a lot of money, time and a lot of anguish and grief. You are reading this because one of 3 things has occured in your pursuit of finding a proper and not to costly transmission rebuild / major repair on your vehicle and you need this vehicle to come through. So it is  1) you talked to this con artist within the last 24 hours and you are checking reviews (or) 2) you talked to this (supposed to be) transmission repairman and had the car towed to his shop and are now getting a rediculously high priced transmission rebuild  repair bill ( much , much more than you were promised on the original and 1st call ) or 3) you paid a lot more than you imagined and are very upset and are looking for closure with the hopes that it may not be as bad you have been thinking. Here is how the scam works. This con man James Saroka he appears to be working solo from home in Bayport Long Island  and Monday to friday  runs a low priced ad for transmission rebuilds. The price varies from $1295.00 to 1349.00. This is the bait.(And you guessed right “To Good To Be True” ) Mr transmission conman then uses a potential victims desperation to have his/her car fixed at a low price with a fast turnaround time so you can get back to the daily grind of your life. . In your mind you are thinking “Please Be True “. (UNFORTUNATELY : the fine print says that price is for the STANDARD REBUILD and all other expensive parts will be extra money bringing the price up substantially the next day ) Mr Ripoff conman now will sweeten the deal with a free tow to his transmission shop ( More LIES : the tow is never free and he DOES NOT work there and he does not own or is associated with the shop ; except for referring them business) and he is always friendly and nice on the your 1st call to him with the promise of a really good outcome and you’ll be driving down the road with a big smile in 3 days : MORE LIES. The shop gives it to him for a discounted price ; WHY ???? we all ask ourselves the same question after we pay the inflated price. I’m sure they always need the business ?  It could be a bunch of reasons , that question is for another review. BUT  you will pay much more than the price the shop gives to him.  BUT the part that is disturbing is that he tells you it’s a standard rebuild , LIAR , when many times it is a USED transmission that is just being swapped out instead of the rebuild. It is cheaper for the shop.  This happens most of the time. The shops can get these used tranny’s at a low price. And the shop is not on the hook for this lie, you aren’t there customer you are the conmans customer. It is much cheaper to do a used transmission swap as opposed to a bebuild. AND you are paying a lot more money as well. This scam has been going on since at least 2013. I’ve seen compaints going back this far. The domain name of his internet ad , as well as the phone numbers are changed quite often to throw people as myself off his trail. BUT he ripped off the wrong guy and I am going to make sure the public is aware of his dishonesty and bad reputation. This guy is lying through the whole transaction ( bad ordeal is more like it )  and when the transmission starts to have problems you must search the internet for hours because the name and number is always changing and the number you used last time is not in service. He has MANYcomplaints on the internet. It appears that all his negative reviews have all gone unanswered.  Way to many to list. Search hard and you will find them. Here are domain names he has used in the past { tra10jr.com / jauto2018.com  / 1349trans.shop } Bad reviews with these domain names. He suppossedly lives in Bayport Long Island. A mechanic at one of the shops he uses says the ripoff kingpin is a opiod pill popper as well as a drunk. I never did actually see him but what comes to mind is a bald , pudgy , doughy slob with many bad habits and no family or  friends. He never tries to dispute these compaints and accusations and that points to his guilt. I am putting together a list of shops that I will post on another report. BEWARE this guy will cheat you out of your hard earned money in as fast as he can to get his next pill or cheap bottle of booze !!!!! It is terrible as to he will take advantage of just about anybody ; elderly persons , women struggling to keep their families together ; a mechanic said a few years ago he ripped off a lady who was deaf and all unware hard working people that just need to get there transmission fixed ( albeit an expensive one) done for their car and to get back to work to support their families. This creates an opportunity for the transmission ripoff kingpin to get you , a family member , a relative , a friend or neighbor to part ways with your hard earned money !!!! Now ask yourself this. ” Is this the type of sleazeball you would want to be helping you on a very expensive auto repair….. I THINK NOT !!!!  Beware he is absolutely no good.

  1. PLEASE READ THIS

    I WANT TO WRITE THIS !
    THIS GUY WHO IS WRITING THESE BAD REVIEWS , HIM SELF IS A SCAM !!!
    IF THIS GUY WANTED HIS TRANSMISSION REPAIRED BY ANY ONE ELSE , HE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY .
    HE WASNT HELD HOSTAGE , HE NEW WHAT THE REAL PROBLEM AND WANTS TO BLAME IT ON THE TRANSMISSION SHOP.
    THEY ARE ONLY ADVISING WHAT WAS REALLY WRONG AND HE HAD EVERY OPPORTUNITY TO GO ELSEWHERE.
    HE DIDNT.
    SO I WANT TO SAY THAT THIS SHOP IS STILL HALF THE PRICE OF EVERYONE ELSE OUT THERE.
    SHAME ON HIM FOR WRITING BAD REVIEWS.
    HES VERY VINDICTIVE AND IF HE REALLY HAD A REAL PROBLEM WITH ANY REPAIRS, HE HAS A WARRANTY !!!
    SO WHATS THE REAL COMPLAINT?
    ANY ONE THAT WANTS TO SAVE MONEY ON THIER TRANSMISSION ISSUES , PLEASE CALL THESE GUYS.
    THEY GET THE JOB DONE !

    1. TRANSMISSION RIP-OFF KINGPIN ( Please read; it will save you money , time and lots of anguish

      If you read this far down, just check the reviews from the other domain names this con-man has been using. tra10jr.com / jauto2018.com / 1349trans.shop. The reviewers that are coming to his defense blatantly lie in regards to claiming to have done business with him direct BIG LIE. He’s a pill popping drunk that sits in his house on eastern Long Island. He does not own and IS NOT employed by these shops. AND Nobody has ever seen him. Then how is he getting the repairs from transmission shops at a reduced fee ?? NO WAY. Does that make any sense ?? And why he does not try to address all the negative reviews taht are all over the internet ??? Also the reviews that the rip-off kingpin wrote in his own defense are very poorly written. They look as if somebody was writing while they had too much alcohol and drugs. Poor grammar, misspellings everywhere, narrow range of word use AND all capital letters, COME ON. Those reviews look like they were written by an D average 8th grader. HA HA HA. The pathetic transmission ripoff kingpin using a last ditch effort to save his failing scam operation. THat’s right you pathetic loser !!! You know what you are. You ripped off the wrong guy and many other hard working people. To the public reviewers, I am putting together a class action lawsuit against this conman. I will send out the details in a forum when my brother the attorney gets all of the evidence together. I have been on the phone with the attorney generals office and they also are starting to take notice. This moron is going to need the phony reviewers coming to his defense. Just you wait and see !!!!!!!

    2. This transmission ripoff man Changes the Domain Names Constantly

      To any reviewer that may be down this far on this page. Ask Yourself This. Why does the transmission repairman change his ad domain name AND the phone numbers? WHY? Does any of your local businesses that you frequent, change their names and phone numbers? You know the answer. NO. I have a pizza shop in my town and they have the same number for 40+ years. See for yourself and do a search on google to see the reviews on previous transmission ad domain names he uses as follows { tra10jr.com / jauto2018.com / 1349trans.shop / acmetrans2019 } There are most likely more of them besides these In the last 6 weeks or so he was making a last ditch effort to throw reviewers like me off his trail, it is called { trans-wizard.com }. He probably in a drunken stupor realized it was going to back fire and hastily changed it back to this name, and thought by using phony reviewers to tell the public he is straight up , does the right thing , and gave me a great price when in reality he’s running pay per clicks from a room in new york , and has been doing this for 5 years or so. AND Mr wonderful is able to be in New York, Connecticut, New jersey , Philadelphia , , Baltimore and Atlanta at the same time AND can repair transmissions cheaper than all the surrounding Transmission Shops. Just call the other shops that advertise in the same area and ask them ” How does this moron do it cheaper than them ? ” AND he claims to be servicing transmissions for 35 years as it says on the ads. LIES ; LIES ; And More LIES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just delusional claims from a sociopathic alcoholic and drug addict. Before you give any tow truck driver , that you know nothing about , the keys to your vehicle , MAKE sure you are not putting yourself in a bad position as I did , and as well as many other unsuspecting people did to.

  2. THESE GUYS ARE GREAT AND NO SCAM .

    WELL FOR STARTERS , I HAD MY VEHICLE REPAIRED THEIR AND IT RUNS BETTER THAN THE DAY I BOUGHT IT. THEY TOWED IT IN , DIAGED IT AND IT WAS ALL FREE NO OBLIGATION. THEY TOLD ME THE REAL DEAL WHAT WAS TRULY WRONG WITH IT AND I HAD THE OPTION TO DECIDE WEATHER OR NOT TO FIX. SO I DID THE REPAIRS AND IT RUNS GREAT.
    WHO EVER WROTE THESE NON SENSE REPORTS SHOULD BE CRITICIZED FOR MAKING FALSE CLAIMS.
    LISTEN , NO ONE IS HELD CAPTIVE AND FORCED TO MAKE THE REPAIRS.
    SO MY THOUGHTS , THEY ARE STILL HALF PRICE FROM EVERY OTHER SHOP, AND I SHOULD KNOW FOR I HAD GOTTEN SEVERAL QUOTES.
    I WOULD RECOMMEND THESE GUYS FOR ALL MY AUTOMOTIVE NEEDS.

  3. Don't Believe the kind reviewers. They are all from the Transmission Ripoff Man

    Out of nowhere 3 completely independent satisfied customes come out on the same day and have nothing but high praises for pathetic loser, James Saroka. LOL , this guy has negative reviews going back to 2013-2014. He has changed the domain name multiple times , as stated in the original review, and another one of those domain names was not stated , acmetrans2019.com. So 4 name changes , and there were more , if you read all of these negative reviews. So now he is going to fire back and how honest he is…. HA….HA……HA……don’t believe it. But we will give him 1 star for at least making an attempt to resond to a very long list of negative reviews all over the internet albeit paying somebody to act as if they were being 3 seperate honest reviews. BUT that person has poor intellect skills in doing all of the reviews on the same day , using names that are portraying white caucasions. My relative , a dealer mechanic, says transmission repair customers come in a wide variety of ethnic backgrounds , and skin colors as well as names that white guys would be unaccustomed to. AND the dumb reviewer is using all capital letters to embolden the reviews , because he had very poor writing skills. HA….HA…..HA….WAY TO GO Transmission Ripoff Man

  4. DONT BELIVE ALL YOU READ !!! BOGUS REPORT

    IVE READ ALL THAT IS OUT THERE…WHO TO BELIEVE!
    IF THEY GIVE YOU A PRICE BEFORE FIXING , THEN ITS EITHER YOU WANT IT REPAIRED OR GO TO ANOTHER SHOP. BUT THEY ARE REAL , HONEST AND DO A GREAT JOB. I HAVE A DODGE RAM 1500 AND ALL THE OTHER SHOPS WANTED A 2900 BILL TO FIX. HE DID IT FOR 2200.00 FOR IT WAS DESTROYED AND NEED ADDITION PARTS.
    2YRS LATER AND IT STILL RUNS GREAT ,,, I SUGGEST HE WILL DO GREAT BY YOU .
    GIVE HIM A CAL ….YOULL SAVE ALOT OF MONEY !!

  5. GREAT JOB , HALF THE PRICE OF ALL THE OTHER SHOPS

    ALL I CAN SAY , I BROUGHT MY TRANSMISSION / TRUCK TO HIM ….IT WAS A ISUZU TROOPER ….. THIS THING RUNS BETTER THAN THE DAY I BOUGHT IT .
    GREAT JOB AND I WOULD RECOMMEND HIM TO EVERY ONE.

  6. MY TRANBSMISSION RUNS GREAT ,... GREAT JOB AND HE IS HONEST BEFORE WORK IS DONE

    ALL IS THAT THIS GUT WAS HONEST FROM THE START…. I NEEDED MY TRANSMISSION DONE AND I WAS IN A BAD SITUATION WITH MONEY !!! I CONTACTED THIS GUY AND HE NOT ONLY GAVE ME A GREAT PRICE BUT ALSO FINANCED ME . I DROVE OUT WITH MY VEHICLE AND NO PROBLEMS AS OF 15 MONTHS AGO. MY MONTHLY PAYMENT WAS ABOUT 110.00 WHICH I COULD AFFORD AND I WAS ABLE TO GET BACK TO WORK AND MY FAMILY WAS VERY HAPPY.
    WAY TO GO FOR THIS GUY.
    I THINKL THAT HOW EVER POST THIS REVIEW THAT HE IS A SCAM THEN READ ALL THE OTHERS OUT THEIR.
    ITS A TRANSMISSION ….IF HE DOES THE WORK , THEN YOU HAVE A WARRANTY THE HE STANDS BY.
    I WOULD USE HIM BECOUSE HE IS STILL HALF THE PRICE OF ALL THE OTHER SHOPS AND ONLY TRYS TO HELP YOU ..
    DONT READ TO MUCH CAUSE THE OTHER SHOPS ARE TRYING TO RID HIM…HES THE REAL GUY TO HELP YOU !!!
