When Your Vehicle Is Asking for Attention
Your car has its own way of speaking up, especially when the transmission starts acting out. Before things get worse, it’s important to listen for changes in shifting, sounds, and response. Early care keeps you safe, protects your engine, and saves you from bigger repairs later. Common signs to look out for:
Strange whining, humming, or grinding sounds
This is caused by low or contaminated transmission fluid, damaged gears, failing bearings, a worn torque converter, misaligned gear sets, or a failing transmission pump, all of which can disrupt proper lubrication and gear engagement.
Delayed or rough shifting
This may be caused by degraded transmission fluid, clogged transmission filters, worn clutch packs or bands, a faulty shift solenoid, valve body problems, or issues with the transmission control module, these issues interfere with hydraulic pressure and timing during gear changes.
A burning smell during or after driving
This can indicate overheated or burnt transmission fluid, low fluid levels causing excessive friction, slipping clutch packs, a failing torque converter, or internal components overheating due to clogged filters or restricted fluid flow.
Fluid leaking underneath your car
This is caused by damaged transmission pan gaskets, cracked transmission pans, corroded fluid lines, leaking axle seals, or a failing front or rear transmission seal, all of which can allow transmission fluid to escape and lead to low fluid levels and transmission damage.

Took my Ford in to have it serviced ,they got me in and out .even vacuumed the truck out and the guys a the counter where very noligable and friendly. Great place will be telling all my friends and family
This place is absolutely amazing! I won’t be going anywhere else. I called the same day for help installing my front license plate bracket and they told me exactly what to do and let me come in asap. They were so kind and welcoming along with having an air conditioned waiting room with beverages. While I was there I went ahead and made a future appointment to fix a separate problem with my car. I could not recommend them more!
They had my car done in a day. They were professional and even helped me finance the repairs when I didn’t have enough funds to cover all the costs. I will be using Art of Maintenance for any future repairs and preventative maintenance. Kevin was professional and kind.
The service was great Kevin was very helpful and James was friendly. Will be back
Was passing thru town and they took great care of me in a pinch! Nice early hours.
Great service always
Took my Husbands truck in for some
Work. The staff was professional, Knowledgeable and friendly. Kevin called me and walked us through what needed to be done step by step. Service was quick and The price was very fair. We will be bringing our business back here.
Everyone here was great, James went above and beyond. Had my car back in action way ahead of schedule – was refreshing to work with such a helpful auto shop! Thank you guys!
Art of Maintenance is the best! They have serviced my car many times from oil changes all the way to fixing my exhaust manifold and radiator. My 1999 Suzuki used to sound like a tractor and I could not believe how quiet it was after taking it to Art of Maintenance. They also provide very thorough vehicle reports via text message that include pictures and make keeping track of maintenance easy!
The only place I will take my Mustang
Thanks so much for the The crew at Art of maintenance highly recommend this service they performed on my pick up thank you again
This shop is a gem. Runs on old school work ethic that is hard to find these days. Team is highly professional and communicative. I needed a quick tire patch. They took my car in same day despite their full and overflowing schedule given the upcoming memorial weekend. Now I can hit the road in time for my birthday trip safely and worry free. Thank you all so much!! Will be coming back for regular maintenance soon.
