Customer Review
★★★★★
I called Schaeffer Automotive for new tires and a tow to the garage...that was important to me, that they have the capability to tow. Four new tires, with the tow, were professionally mounted and balanced for less than what I'd have paid at other establishments and arranging a tow. I'm very pleased with the service I received and am happy to call Schaeffer my new automotive center when I need work done!

For the most part, automatic transmissions are exactly that; automatic. However, there are a couple of components that require adjustment from time to time, to keep your transmission shifting like it should. At Schaeffer Automotive in Huntingburg, our team of expert mechanics knows how to do just that.

guy shifting car

At Schaeffer Automotive in Huntingburg, we understand that there are endless ways a transmission can sound, behave, and feel, depending on what type of car it’s in, what type of transmission it is, and the state of the vehicle’s repair. Sometimes, when people buy a different car, they notice it doesn’t act the same as their last car, which leads them to believe there is a problem.
