Ram Transmission Service serving Chelsea, MA
Chelsea is approximately 17 minutes from our Stoneham shop on Pine Street. We see customers from Chelsea, Everett, Revere, Boston, Winthrop, and the wider Suffolk County area every week. Most Chelsea driving runs through Broadway, Beacham Street, and the Tobin Bridge approach, which shapes the wear pattern on the vehicles we service.
Chelsea is dense urban, with a lot of late-model used imports. Routine MA state inspection issues here are EVAP system codes and worn ball joints from the road condition.
