Transmission Repair in Modesto, CA

“I highly recommend Ralph's to solve your transmission service needs. My van drives better than ever. Ralph's Transmission gave me the best possible attention and service money can buy.
My transmission burned up driving up a mountain. Three other mechanics wouldn’t touch my transmission.

I believe that transmission building and repair is the brain surgery of the automotive world. This might sound hard to believe but I had my van towed 100 miles just so Ralph’s could handle the repair.

Ralph’s backs their transmission with a 3-year warranty, which made me feel a lot better. I asked them a lot of questions. A LOT! This was .a huge investment for me, and I only want to do it ONCE. Since I depend on my vehicle for my business, I needed a compete and lasting solution. If I was to spend the money to repair it, I needed it done right and I needed a SUPER-DUTY transmission.

Mario and the entire staff explained in detail what I needed to properly repair my transmission. They were even able to diagnose the cause of the failure.

They completely rebuilt my transmission instead of slapping Band-Aid on the problem. They communicated with me about the type of parts going into my transmission and they guided me into making decisions about using heavy-duty parts.
I’ll update my post with anything new.

Bonus: The Taco truck at Ralph’s makes delicious food.”

“The mechanics and all the staff here are wonderful people. I didn't have money and I was originally afraid that my transmission was bad and they told me my transmission runs strong and good and test drove with me. One mechanic from a shop close to them that I went maybe 3 days ago said I had a leaking transmission but I found out at A & G that I didn't. A & G are honest and they saved me around $500 that another place was trying to get. In the future when I have money and need transmission work, this is the shop I want to go to, because I trust them and they're nice people”

“CTT transmissions has always taken good care of me and my troublesome Cadillac. They’ve never charged me for something I didn’t need, and have kept my transmission running healthy with trade knowledge when they could have easily recommended a replacement 50k miles ago.

Recently, my differential went out and Erica has been nothing short of a miracle in keeping me informed and getting my warranty work approved. What would normally be a stressful situation has been a walk in the park with the peace of mind that comes with doing business at such a honest and experienced shop. This entire shop and especially Erica is amazing, if you need transmission or differential work do yourself a favor and look nowhere else.”

“Ron, Jeremiah, and staff did a great job! They are very precise, are always helpful and answer any questions you may have. I highly recommend for any automotive needs you make have.”

“I highly recommend Matt's Automotive! Matt is the best. He is knowledgeable, hard working and honest. It is rare to find a shop that nowadays. I'll never take my car anywhere else!!!! Thank you Matt!”

“WOW! Where to start! I am and still am blown away by the help, level of customer service and friendliness' that this shop has. I was referred to Kevin and his shop by Chris @ Ca Auto. I will admit I was a bit nervous and I didn't want to have one get over on me and be honest with what the issue was with my car. I was treated with the utmost respect! I can't emphasize that enough. I explained to Kevin what the issue was over the phone and he knew exactly what it was and was able to get me in that afternoon. Unfortunately, I wouldn't have a ride if I dropped my car off at that time so he allowed me to bring it the next day at 8am. He had given me a loose quote over the phone with the best and worst case scenario. Thankfully to expertise and knowledge I walked away with the best scenario and a huge relief. He recommended I bring by car back at so many miles and you better believe I have that note in my phone. Thank you Kevin and the rest of the team for making my experience there amazing. I would highly recommend to anyone! It's truly hard to find honest people who value their customers.”

“Great customer service! The people at J&W automotive did everything possible to get my car back on the road again quickly at an affordable price. I strongly recommend it!”

“My name is Patricia. I have a 550 BMW as you know this is a very expensive car. I took it to an import shop to get repaired on ninth Street. It’s at there for 3+ days. They didn’t even look at it. I told my girlfriend about it, she referred me to the shop. She says they take all their vehicles there. They were amazing within two days. My car was totally repaired. I was scared to get the total price of the car. It was a little over $1000 granite I live on a fixed income , I guarantee if I would’ve took this car anywhere else it would’ve been a lot more . I will never take my car to Valley BMW. All they do is overcharged on everything these gentlemen at this place were professional and got to my car immediately even though they had other cars they were working on also, they literally got the job done and I’m sure gave me a break because I know the work was more than they charge me. I had my car back with a day and a half. I am so grateful to this shop and feel so blessed that I had a girlfriend that knew where they would take good care of somebody that lives on a very tight budget , I got my baby back and I’m happy to say if you have an expensive car like mine that is very high maintenance and you want somebody to trust go to the shop they treat you right they do not try to overcharge they get it done and you will never go wrong get your car fixed here. My car is a 2016 with very low mileage under 40,000 miles on it. I am so grateful to the mechanics and how professional they are. Thank you so very much to all the gentleman that repaired my car and got me back onto the road , this is this is not five stars. It is in my book. I will never take my car anywhere else besides this shop you cannot go wrong. I would put my life on it. Thank you so very much sincerely, Patricia.”

“I think they are the best transmission people and Modesto. I had my Honda Civic 2016 transmission replaced and they Did an amazing job. I trust them and for sure I am bringing my car this week for transmission oil change”

“So happy with the service AND price! Ismael was able to come out next day to our business and replace the front windshield. Capitol Door & Window will definitely use him for our future vehicle needs!Service: Auto windshield replacement”

“These guys had my truck done in under an hour, amazing service, and they were so nice. And joyful, thank you guys for fixing my brakes, and make sure that I am safe to drive my vehicle.”

“It's been a minute although I've had great luck with these guys. Infact had several transmissions rebuilt by them, sent several friends also. Years ago when I had my Acura transmission rebuilt I was so pleased I returned shortly later for my Dodge. I had also recommended these guys on Craigslist back in the day as at that time they were the only affordable place with a great warranty. Normally affordable and quality don't go together however these folks are amazing! Never did I have an issue since the rebuilds. Only visits were for maintenance. They were also quick, had the vehicles back with in a few days. Even after I looked over the work you couldn't even tell the transmissions had been removed as every was put back, secured and none of the bolts were stripped or rounded off. I knew the job was done tho as I checked in occasionally as it's hard to find a trust worthy shop. Mario and his Father make a great team.”

“Friendly people they know their stuff.They'll go over your car check everything out and tell you what's really wrong not like some car dealers that I've been to.”

“Great service honest mechanics and really great mechanics. They can fix your car, not over priced either. Wonderful customer service and great service overall?❤❤”

“I spoke with Kevin bout my 2010 Nissan Altima and he was honest I telling I’d be better off going to dealership as it’s an issue they should work on and would be cheaper for me. I appreciate it his honestyThanks Kevin”

“I recently brought my car into this auto shop, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the level of service I received. From the moment I walked in, the staff was friendly, professional, and clearly knowledgeable. They took the time to explain the issues with my vehicle in a way I could understand, and they offered honest advice without trying to upsell unnecessary services.

The repairs were completed ahead of schedule, and my car is running better than ever. The pricing was fair and transparent, with no hidden fees or surprises. What really stood out was the attention to detail and the pride they take in their work—it’s rare to find a shop that cares this much about their customers.

I highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for trustworthy, high-quality auto repair and maintenance. I’ll definitely be returning for all future needs!”

“This shop is amazing! They are always open and get me in last minute! The front desk girl, Kayla, is very knowledgeable and so helpful! Couldn’t recommend Performance Transmission enough! 10/10”

“Jose explained everything in detail to me and updated me on the status of my car throughout the repair. When I picked up my car, Jose and I discussed an issue with the estimated price. Jose was professional and he and I were able to resolve the issue without incident. This shop is on the Costco Auto-Repair program and rightfully so. They do quality work.”

“Excellent customer service! These guys no transmissions always kept me updated on my repair and very responsive when I called I highly recommend their business I will definitely take my vehicles to them if I ever need transmission work done. Thank you for a job well done!”

“I came into Mistlin Honda in search of a new car. Upon arrival I was greeted by employee Mel, who instantly made me feel comfortable to start off my car purchasing process. J.R was my salesman who helped me find my brand new 2024 Honda civic sport. J.R was such a affable guy, I have nothing but positive things to say about him and Mel throughout this whole process. On the other hand, employee Sammy was way too aggressive and lied to me multiple times about my options in regard to my purchasing process. I do not appreciate the lies from and let alone the constant paucity of transparency. The rest of Mistlin Honda crew was AMAZING and would suggest them to anyone in search of a Honda.”

“They have always done a great job on my trucks. I've been going here for 20+ years whenever I have a issue I can't deal with on my own. Just sent my truck in for a coolant leak, luckily it was a simple fix. Highly recommended for ford repairs and great service.”

“Perfect experience! I had an ECU that the dealer wanted to replace for thousands of dollars. Marlon and his staff allowed me to ship the ECU to the shop and they were able to reprogram it and return it to me within the week! Couldn't have asked for a better experience.”

“It was a great experience working with the team at Mistlin Honda —Tomas, Micah, and Brayan! The process was smooth and they were professional, friendly, and super helpful! I would recommend buying from them for any of your car needs !”
