Not sure many people look forward to having to take their vehicle into Mechanic. Myself being one of those, SR Transmission made my situation easy and stress free. They were professional throughout, communicative, and I appreciated the communication tools that allowed me to review the suggestions and approve or deny. I felt informed and cared for. I would gladly use them again in the future and recommend to anyone to give them consideration.

The counter people were great, answered my questions, explained their services well and check in/out went great. Also liked their email service about rhe vehicle and the display of their prices. I have two complaints: one the left the replaced windshield wiper in the bed of my truck, didnt understand why they did no discard it. And two, they did not lock my hood, which I noticed was a bit up, so I closed it shut. Just some safety issues that should have been resolved before I left. Would have given more stars if safety of customer was better.

Professional staff. Very nice and polite. The guy ( which Unfortunately I forgot his name ) was so nice. He even spent a lot of time to tell me where I can spend my time while they were fixing my car ( as soon as he noticed that I am not familiar to the area)Great service.

I took my daughters car in for transmission servicing and it was a great experience! They were friendly and professional. They quoted me a time that it would be done and were on schedule. They also checked the rest of the systems and made recommendations, but didnt try to pressure me into getting them done. I will definately use them again, when MY car needs servicing. :)

I have confidence taking my car to SRT and know that they are going to give me straight answers and I can trust their knowledge. Their communication emails are so helpful and provides pictures detailing any recommendations. You can approve repairs online, and know the cost up front. I highly recommend!

Very polite on phone and in person. But follow-up needs to improve. Didn’t tell me my brake fluid needed to be replaced or battery cleaned. Still waiting to hear back on why my SRS light is on now and wasn’t before I took my car there.

Definitely has a good energy, Damon was a great help considering what a fiasco the whole thing was! They weren’t able to fix my car, and i ended up having to take it to the manufacturer but they overall were a great service spot! Very upfront, and real about the issues. And I got a cool sweater too!

I wish more shops operated like these guys!Damon was super helpful from the very first phone call. He patiently answered ALL my questions and explained things clearly.Scheduling a fluid change was simple and they included a thorough, detailed inspection. They listed each area they inspected, included photos and notes, *and whether or NOT* they had service recommendations on each area. They never pushed any other service or upgrade, they just simply stated what they found, and what they could do.It was really refreshing to have such a straightforward interaction.Thanks Damon and the rest of the crew!

This was my first experience at SR Transmission. Both Sam and Damon were friendly and very helpful. Their communication was detailed regarding the repair and the cost. They were able to fix the issue and my engine light is no longer coming on! Great work...I definitely recommend SR Transmission!!

I had a great experience. Damon was clear in communication with verbal, email and text messages showing me pictures and color coding exactly what should be done as a priority. Prices were up front and clear to understand. Customer service was great and he made me feel welcomed. Thank you, I will refer friends and family.

Damon was awesome. Really kept in the loop. Love that they take pictures of things. Was hoping the vibration would go away with new engine mounts and tune up. But it is MICH BETTER and the car feels stronger smoother and safer. Thanks guys !

I’ve been going to Santa Rosa Transmission for years. I’ve been taking my cars, and my kid’s cars and Sam and his team are people I trust completely. They keep me updated about timeframe, cost, etc. I would absolutely recommend Santa Rosa Transmission for all auto repairs! They take care of everything and are great to work with!

Review №17

All of the staff and service technicians were extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Their online service confirmation system is really nice to use, and they provided a lot of customer support and were able to answer any questions I had. All details of the work my car needed were well explained and documented in their online system so I could approve them as needed. And despite the fact the my car needed a lot of repairs at the time they did exactly what I asked of them without pushing for extra fixes. Very satisfied with the customer service and support this auto shop provides. I would highly recommend to anyone in the Santa Rosa area.

My young daughter (well 22) and her 2 teenage cousins were coming back from Santa Rosa when my daughters undercarriage in her car came loose. She was a wreck over the situation and lives 5 hours away. She called the shop to see if they could help. What a blessing they are. I can not thank them enough!!! They had her back on the road in no time. A BIG HEART FELT THANK YOU TO THE GENTLEMAN WHO HELPED.💗 These are tough times right now for each of us. With caring people like this shop it gives hope. And I cant say enough good. Thank you so very much for helping my daughter, Kylie. You all are a blessing.

Review №27

I had very high expectations for SRT Car Care and they exceeded every single one! I spoke to Damon at the front desk when I first arrived and despite being New Year’s Eve, he seemed happy to be working. I had initially brought my Jeep in to diagnose a battery light that had persisted even after replacing the old battery. I received a text message that provided an interactive link to the repair page. Listed there are notes between myself and the SRT crew and the detailed service process. I received steady updates on the progress and pictures were taken of the issues that were found. All in all, I had a wonderful experience and I strongly feel that it was money well spent for quality work. Thanks SRT CAR CARE! ❤️

I appreciated that the team at Santa Rosa Transmission got my truck in with such short notice! I also really liked the way they kept me updated throughout the day with their progress and additional service recommendations via text. I was able to accept or decline additional services after reviewing the technicians comments and service fees. There was not any pressure to have more work done, but I now know how to plan out the my finances to match my truck’s maintenance needs. Great care and communication! I highly recommend them.

We went back yet again for another huge service, keeping this truck running through 140k+ (last time we had it in we were hovering around 100k and hadnt touched it since 85k. That makes up 2 essential services in a 60k mile period which seems like a bargain for something that will last another decade. Thanks to the team there for great customer service and fantastic communication, especially during COVID times. We will be back again in another 30-60k miles!

Went in there letting them know I need a new alternator and instead i got a 4 and a half hour inspection telling me i need a new alternator. Now my battery is resting at 11.8 since they spent that long drawing power from it. Went down the street and got quoted 400 flat for parts and labor. Figure it out.

Review №43

Insane prices, deceptive communication, rude and disrespectful when asked about their pricing and the reasons for it. They wanted around $600 dollars to replace the main belt on an Import! Took it down the street to another shop and they did it in 15 minutes for $110. Years later now Im still running great with no issues. This shop was trying to price gouge a person who they thought didnt know anything about vehicles. Go ANYWHERE else.

This is not my review yet. My car is still in the process of being drivable. I will revisit to submit my review when things are done . It can become 4, 5 stars, but until then, based on my current experience, 1 star is very generous.

I just brought my truck into SRT for the second time for maintenance and will continue to bring my vehicles in for service. The SRT staff are friendly, professional, and transparent from start to finish. There are no surprises with charges, and everything is managed from an easy online experience. I recommend SRT to all.

Review №50

You will have no idea what you are paying for. They have no posted hourly rate and when I asked they said they dont have one. An $800 repair today took 4 hours with a $100 were the parts. More expensive than going to the dealer. The only shop Ive ever been to the doesnt have an hourly rate of service. They will charge you whatever they feel like. Disappointing experience for sure.

$124 for a mandatory inspection which did not cover the reason for my bringing in the vehicle. Once that inspection completed now I get a price For the inspection I actually Ask for and needed. Wow, what a privilege!Funny thing is months earlier I didnt need a mandatory inspection to get my vehicle worked on.Yep, bait and switch. Regardless of their justification. It is nothing more than a rip-off. Doing the 10 friends thing now. Caveat emptor!

I’ve been bringing my vehicles to Sam and his team for almost 20 years now. From my second vehicle in high school through our family vehicles present day. He and his team are always courteous and timely. The prices and work are fair and very clearly communicated throughout the process. I trust them, their work and pricing more than anyone I have dealt with and my vehicle always drives away in excellent condition. I’ll be going back without question.

Took my 2005 honda Accord in for some repairs. Part of which was an alignment. Got the car back and it pulls hard to the left. Took the specs to another shop and was told my crossmember needs adjusted. But that was never disclosed to me by SRT. Over charged for something that was never done properly. I called to speak with them about this and was told I would receive a call back, never happened. I will never take my car back to SRT. They charge for things that dont get done

Review №65

Friendly staff and very responsive. They did a thorough check of my truck and use a nice app for summarizing the issues they found both by type and severity. However, their quoted price for the repairs was outlandish! They wanted $1700 to change the bearing on the front of my Tacoma. Even the dealership didn’t want that much. Over $800 in parts and over $800 in labor- I had the dealership quote the parts and at that cost it would be replacing everything including hubs on both sides, with all factory parts! Doing that would be 2 hour of work TOPS. These guys obviously don’t expect their customers to shop around or do their homework....

Review №66

Sam was very friendly and courteous and gave me the estimate prior to starting work on the car. The service was quick and he didnt try to fix anything additional that didnt need fixing. He made a recommendation for the next service time and suggested few things. Overall, an awesome experience and will definitely recommend it to others.

Everyone at SRT is wonderful. As strange as it may sound I look forward to going in and seeing everyone whenever I have an oil change or a tune up. They are fair, they have fantastic quality, and they do it because they love it and not to just make money. Im very thankful for all they do and for the fantastic service they provide!

Review №69

Took my sons car for transmission work. They got it fixed but its leaking engine oil by the crankshaft seal. They did tell us about the problem but we decided not to have the seal replaced. They said it would be another 500$. The reason why I give this place 1 star is, it took me a while to find the right place where I can trust someone with my car and not get taking advantage of. So the job was 4000$ for a new transmission that came with the same used up seal. The transmission was already removed and basically to replace the bad seal would cost me an extra $500. Thats an expensive seal and I know the seal was not that much the thing here is they wanted to charge me an extra $500 as if they were starting from scratch, all they had to do is grab a seal and replace it. The transmission was already out, easy access to the seal and yet they wanted to charge me so much. I would of easily paid and extra $100 but $500 thats crazy. U know to refer someone to a good place you have to be able to be comfortable and satisfied with the job. Im sorry but unless they can explain the highly priced Seal job I do not recommend this place and will give my opinion about this place if asked.

Shelby and Damien are the absolutely the best my 06 Dodge went in for the transmission, it had to be rebuilt. I had bought a warrenty with the truck and at first the warrenty company said they would not cover it for some BS reason and Damien totally went to bat for me and got them to pay for half of it. I am very thankful for their help and their service.and I will recommend them to my friends and family they are the best. Again thank you all at Santa Rosa transmission, you have gained a new customer forever.

Sam Is a great guy, but he couldnt help me with what I needed today, but if I had an average car or job I would definitely send him my business. He has one of the cleanest shops I have ever seen, and he treat his customers as if they know what they are talking about, and makes suggestions, but dont try, and sell you something you dont need or want.Thanks again,John Leach

I was greeted by the owner, who gave me a lift to my business appointment, and picked me up after the work was done. He was thorough and checked everything, even tho it was a simple oil change. We discussed an upcoming timing belt replacement, and he quoted me a price over $1000 less than the dealer quoted! I know several customers of Santa Rosa Transmission, who all love the service. So do I!

Ive had a number of fantastic experiences with SRT&CC. They even demonstrated extreme patience in dealing with an incompetent warranty company. Theyve fixed three of my vehicles, including diagnosing and rebuilding control components for a transmission that had stumped two other shops with 5 star reviews on Yelp and over three decades of experience. While other shops were saying they needed to take apart the transmission to figure out what was going on, SRT&CC tried fixing multiple other, electrical issues, and ended up saving me thousands of dollars.Theyre my go-to shop for everything now.

Simply put, Santa Rosa Transmission is the most professional yet friendly and honest shop around.

The staff is top notch and the honesty cant be beat. Ive been a customer for years and will continue to have all of my vehicles serviced here. They do everything from tires, to tune ups to transmissions. Thank you Sam for running such a fine establishment.3/7/2018:Every time I have an issue with my cars and I bring them the SRT I am treated with the utmost professionalism . The problems are always fixed in a timely manner and I am always kept in the loop about what is going on with my car.The after hours drop-off is perfect for people like me that dont get off work until late in the evening.Thanks to Sam and his crew I feel safe whenever I drive any of my cars.Thank you Sam. I will continue to be a loyal customer and spread the word about SRT.George B.
