More details to this question:
I had my transmission rebuilt to buy a company in Wilmington North Carolina
7 months ago and I have already had to take it back to them 5 times
it is still not properly working the way it should and they are giving me the runaround
I want to know if I can take them to court for small claims and get my
back so I can take it somewhere else to be properly fixed
this has cost me time money and to lose my job because of taking my car back so many times and not having it a week for each time I took it
is there anything at all I can do about this situation please let me know asap thank you

Yes, you can sue them for breach of contract for not performing the services for which you paid them. If you can prove your case, you should be able to get your money back, but you will not be able to recover any damages you suffered from losing your job. Also, you should check your contract with them (look at the paperwork you signed). It may have provisions which you need to know about, such as a requirement that you arbitrate any dispute, or a limitation on the amount of damages you can recover.
