Matthews Tire & Auto did an excellent job finding the right tires for my SUV. I got an appointment in just a couple of days after I called. They also did an oil change. The shuttle service was excellent as well. I recommend Matthews to everyone!

Screw in a tire ... not good. Unrepairable. Easy to get the replacement ordered on Friday afternoon and got it installed first thing on Monday. 25 years of happy service. Just another reason why they get my business.

I normally take all my vehicles to Matthews on the west side of Appleton, Dave the manager is my guy there. My daughter's car broke down in Green Bay and she limped it to the Matthews in Green Bay. Her car was up and running the next day! I can't say enough positive things about Matthews Tire. I highly recommend them!

Frequently Asked Transmission Repair Questions

What is the most common cause of transmission failure?

The leading cause of transmission failure is overheating, often due to:

Low or contaminated fluid: inadequate lubrication and cooling.
Neglected maintenance: failing to perform regular fluid changes and inspections.

Regular maintenance is essential to prevent such issues.

Can a damaged transmission be repaired?

Yes, many transmission issues can be repaired, especially when identified early. Timely intervention can prevent minor problems from escalating into major failures.

Is it cheaper to repair or replace a transmission?

The cost-effectiveness of repairing versus replacing a transmission depends on the extent of the damage:

Minor Issues: Small problems caught early can often be fixed with repairs, which are generally less expensive.
Major Damage: Severe issues may necessitate a complete replacement, which can be more costly.

How long will a repaired transmission last?

The longevity of a repaired transmission varies based on factors such as the quality of the repair, the vehicle’s age and adherence to maintenance schedules. A well-executed repair, combined with regular maintenance, can extend the transmission’s lifespan significantly.

Is it worth fixing a transmission in an older car?

Deciding whether to repair a transmission in an older vehicle involves considering the following:

Vehicle’s overall condition: Assessing the state of other major components.
Repair costs vs. vehicle value: Comparing the repair expenses to the car’s market value.

Consulting with a trusted mechanic can help determine the most cost-effective approach.

Is a rebuilt transmission as good as new?

A rebuilt transmission involves replacing worn or damaged components, which can restore functionality. While it may not be equivalent to a brand-new unit, a professionally rebuilt transmission can perform reliably and extend the vehicle’s service life.

How close are you to Green Bay neighborhoods like De Pere, Allouez or Hobart for transmission repair?

We’re conveniently located in Green Bay, just minutes from De Pere, Allouez, Bellevue, Hobart and other nearby neighborhoods. Whether you’re coming from the west side near Lambeau Field and Lombardi Avenue, or the east side along Main Street or Monroe Avenue, our shop is easy to reach. We’re also close to Highway 41 and Highway 172, making it convenient for drivers from De Pere, Howard and Bellevue. With local landmarks like Bay Park Square, the Resch Center and Titletown nearby, you’ll have plenty of options to explore or run errands while we take care of your transmission repair.

Do cold Green Bay winters cause transmission problems?

They can. Cold temps thicken transmission fluid and make shifting harder, especially during early morning starts. If your car’s parked outside overnight, it’s even more important to keep your transmission maintained.

Is it okay to keep driving in Green Bay with a slipping transmission?

Not a good idea. Driving around Green Bay with a slipping transmission is risky, especially in high-traffic areas like Mason Street, Military Avenue or Oneida Street. These busy roads demand smooth gear shifts and reliable engine power. Traffic congestion near Bay Park Square, intersections like Ashland Avenue and Walnut Street, or during rush hour on I-41 can quickly turn a minor transmission issue into a major breakdown. A failing transmission might leave you stranded in traffic or at a busy intersection. It’s safer, and often more cost-effective, to have your vehicle inspected and repaired before the issue gets worse.

Is your shop close to public transportation if I leave my car for transmission repair?

Yes, our Green Bay location is served by Green Bay Metro Transit. Several bus routes run near major roads like Mason Street, Military Avenue and Oneida Street. This makes it easy to catch a ride while we work on your car. Whether you’re heading downtown, to Bay Park Square or running errands around the stadium district, public transportation offers a convenient way to get around without missing a beat.
