Fairlawn transmission repair

Slipping or shifting hard? Get a real diagnosis before a rebuild

A transmission that slips, shifts hard, hesitates or whines is telling you something, and the fix is often smaller than drivers fear. Low or burnt fluid, a failing sensor or a solenoid can cause symptoms that feel like a major failure. Before anyone quotes you a rebuild, our ASE-certified team in Fairlawn diagnoses the actual problem so you spend money on the right repair, not a worst-case guess.

At our Medina Road shop we check fluid condition, scan for transmission codes, and road test to confirm the cause. Whether it is a fluid exchange, a component repair or a larger job, we explain your options in plain language with an upfront quote. This page is part of our engine and transmission repair service, and Fairlawn, Montrose and Bath drivers trust us to keep them shifting smoothly.

Rad Air really came through for my husband and I. The heater in his jeep stopped working and it's going to be winter soon. Rad Air got the job done fast and now the jeep works great. We are toasty warm. Thank you so much. We were satisfied with the cost, and very surprised.

Rad Air Fairlawn is at 3904 Medina Road, Fairlawn, OH 44333, on Medina Road near Montrose. Our ASE-certified team serves Fairlawn, Montrose, Bath, Copley and Ghent.
Do I need a whole new transmission?
Usually not. Many problems trace to fluid, a sensor or a solenoid rather than the whole unit. We diagnose the real cause before recommending any major work.
What are the signs of transmission trouble?
Slipping between gears, hard or delayed shifts, whining or humming, a burning smell, or fluid leaks under the car all point to a transmission issue worth checking.
Why is my transmission whining?
Whining often means low or degraded fluid, a failing pump, or worn internal parts. We check fluid first, then diagnose deeper if the noise remains.
Is transmission repair covered by a warranty?
Yes. Qualifying new transmission parts we install are covered by our Fixed for Life limited lifetime warranty for as long as you own the vehicle. Transmission fluid and filters are wear items covered by our 36-month/36,000-mile warranty. See what is covered.

It ranges widely, from a modest fluid service to a major repair. We diagnose first and give an upfront quote, and financing is available for larger jobs.
