I didn’t repair my car there, but I went there and talked to get a quote. Mike sounds like decent trust worthy person but the price he gave me was too close to dealer, so I took the car to dealer. Mine is a Nissan Rogue with CVT TRANSMISSION.

I brought my old truck to California Transmissions in Rocklin because it had an oil leak that had developed under the transmission. Right off the bat I was shocked when they wrote up a diagnostic work order totaling $0.00. They put my truck on their rack but were initially unable to pinpoint the source of the leak because there was so much oil under there. So they cleaned the whole area, then told me to drive the truck over the weekend and to bring it back on Monday, which I did.On Monday, they put it back up on the rack and discovered an area on the driver's side of the engine block that was wet with oil, but nowhere else. It wasn't a transmission leak after all. It was an engine oil leak that was running back onto the transmission and leaking to the ground from there. I will likely be able to fix that myself.After all that, they charged me NOTHING.There are plenty of shops out there that would have told me that I had a catastrophic transmission problem and needed a complete rebuild. You know who you are. But California Transmissions in Rocklin is not one of them. They are my go-to transmission shop from now on, and I will recommend them to my family and friends as well.Honest mechanics sometimes seem as scarce as hen's teeth. When you find one, you hold on to them for dear life. Thanks so much for the HONEST work, guys.

California Transmission is awesome!! 3 shops told me I needed a new one or rebuilt transmission. I took it there for the rebuild and I got a call the next day saying they found the issue, it was fixed and $300 out the door. These guys could have just gone and done the rebuild anyways and collected there $5000 + but they didn’t. Definitely recommend to anyone. Honest, quality workmanship.

Terrible business. They will steal from you and lie to your face. Take your car somewhere else.

**YOUR CAR WILL BE STOLEN**MY CAR WAS STOLEN FROM HERE** DO NOT GO TO THIS BUSINESS ** I FLATBEADED my 98 Acura GSR on a Wednesday, battery dead, clutch out, master cylinder failing and minimal transmission fluid. On Friday, the owner Jacob informed me my car was on a lift and parts were ordered. The owner also said one of his guys would be in on Saturday to work on my car hoping to get it back asap. Jacob calls me on Monday and says we can't find your car. The security video shows that after the car being broken in to, the theif was able to drive off with my car, not smoothly, but drivable. How is that possible? Battery dead, clutch out etc.?! Inside Job? The Owner Jacob and his crew are two faced characters who joke with you to gain your trust. Family owned business? More like Family owned CROOKS using a legitimate business name for a cover. Check out their website, no meet the team section or a Owner profile&Pic and backstory like a REAL family owned business. I wonder how many cars have been stolen from here and what models they were? Hmm. The owner Jacob just handed my keys back and said sorry, and thats all! Didnt offer to rectify the situatuin.**DO NOT GIVE THEM BUSINESS**YOUR CAR WILL GET STOLEN**They give you false security.**FALSE SECURITY**

Able to see my car quickly. Not a great price. The car ended up making a ton of horrific noises after the transmission replacement. They couldn't fix it, and told me my ball joints were worn. My regular car shop replaced the ball joints which were worn, but not the source of the noise. My normal shop managed to get it to stop. The subframe was not tightened down as it should have been. Th shop manager was a very nice fellow and the transmission works great, so a star for each of those points.

This is from a few months ago. They didn't do any work on my car, but that's actually a good thing. My Jeep had been having stalling and horsepower issues. The third mechanic we took it to said "Oh, it definitely needs a new transmission," and referred us to California Transmission. Upon taking the Jeep here, the fine gentleman at the front said my car's problems didn't sound transmission related. Sure enough, another mechanic who we took it to afterwards fixed everything and it was an ENGINE problem, the transmission was in tip-top shape. California Transmission could've easily taken my money and rebuilt my transmission knowing it was unnecessary, but they didn't, and I'm grateful for that. Glad to know there's still people out there with a good moral compass!

Jacob and Brian are terrific. Easy opportunity for them to charge for service, resulted in a diagnosis that cost nothing. If there were six stars I would award them. I will never go anywhere else in the future for transmission/clutch issues. Really nice and refreshing to find this kind of automotive repair service typically dominated by dealership horror stories.Services: Transmission

These guys are top notch to say the least. They're professional, thorough, considerate and most importantly very skilled at what they do. I've been there twice now for diagnostic. They are so knowledgeable and informative that you walk out having a much greater understanding of what's going on with your car than when you came in. I would highly recommend California Transmissions in Rocklin to anyone needing transmission related work done. Thank you again for being a far better help to us than the subaru dealership has been.Service: Vehicle Inspection

It is so great to run into an automotive repair facility where you get a great feeling that these are guys you can trust. Brian, the owner was busy helping a young man while I was waiting. He took the time to explain the options and costs to help the customer decide on the best route. At the same time, another customer came in to pick up his truck, and was thrilled that the repair was done on time and on budget, no surprises. I dropped my car off, and looking forward to having it fixed right. I'm confident that this company will keep its word when it comes to repairing my old car.
