Moran Family of Brands, one of the nation’s leading franchises of general automotive repair, transmission repair and driver safety products, announced its newest franchise location with a Mr. Transmission/Milex Complete Auto Care store in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The Mr. Transmission/Milex co-branded franchise opened on December 1 and is located at 1180 N. Nellis Blvd. in Las Vegas.  The new franchise is co-owned by Las Vegas residents Michael Rucker and LeRoy Holland. Rucker has served a variety of leadership positions within the hospitality industry over the last 30 years. Holland has more than 25 years of experience in automotive and mechanical repairs.

Mr. Transmission/Milex will offer customers in the area a comprehensive selection of automotive repair and maintenance services.  Mr. Transmission specializes in repair and installation of a vehicle’s transmission systems and drivetrain components.  Milex provides customers with preventative maintenance services such as oil changes, brake repair, and radiator and cooling systems and engine repair along with a full range of diagnostic services.

Rucker and Holland fully refreshed the entire 3,050 square foot facility, including the shop area, customer lounge and bathrooms, and installed new equipment.  They have hired two customer service representatives and two mechanics, with plans to add another auto technician.  The store’s grand opening is planned for the middle of February.

“We are committed to providing our customers with outstanding service and honest advice,” said Michael Rucker.  “Our Mr. Transmission/Milex store will be a tremendous benefit for residents of Las Vegas who are in need of any kind of automotive or transmission repair service.”

This is the first Mr. Transmission/Milex shop in the state of Nevada.  The national franchise has 80 locations across the country.
