I'm writing this review as the wife of a customer who brought his beautiful 2500 GMC truck in to…read moreget his transmission repaired in the fall of 2022. I know that's some time back, but I'm tired of listening to my husband beat himself up about having taken his truck into Placerville Transmission and within just weeks, realizing the problem was not repaired. He took it in again, only to have Adolf pour some "shutter fluid" in, which did nothing to fix the problem. Now my husband doesn't like confrontation, so he drove the truck with a sickly transmission. I believe these people took us for a ride! First of all, it took 7 weeks for Placerville Transmission to get to the point of doing the work. This necessitated my husband paying almost $1,100 in rental car fees and then when the transmission still wasn't corrected, realized the warranty was only good for one-year! Fast forward to today, July 2025 and my husband has lived with the transmissions this way now for the past almost 3 years. The truck definitely needs to go back into the shop. We spent over $6,660 for the work which didn't even last a few months, never mind past the one-year warranty. We paid good money for a worthy rebuilt transmission, but my husband believes (and he's a gear head so knows cars) the shop put in a faulty rebuilt tranny obtained online. Shame on my husband for not demanding Placerville Transmission perform a proper repair, but mostly shame on them for allowing such sloppy, unprofessional and un-American work. They've lost a customer, but hopefully someone else won't be so easily taken.

I called and spoke with Mike several months ago when I was told that my transmission might be going…read moreout on my 2016 Chevy Silverado. After going over everything that was going on, Mike told me to not waste my money getting it looked and gave me knowledgeable advice about my truck and the transmission issues it has but that my transmison was going out but to drive it until it goes. one week later it went. I took it to the dealership I bought the truck from because they told me they could work with, After going through a huge hassle and a lot of stress I was able to get a new transmission. Less than a month later after being replaced I started filling weird things in the transmission, scared to deal with the dealership again, I called Mike as I had appreciated his honesty and straightforwardness. He told me to bring it over and he would test drive it. After reassuring me of how new transmissions work and what I was feeling I left filling a lot better and less stressed. I appreciate the honesty and not trying to haggle me. It's been a very stressful situation, but he gave me a piece of mind. I will be bringing my truck here in the future. Thank you!

Rather than pull the car apart and charge us for it, Dave told him to drive on it for awhile and see if it went away. It did go away and we haven't had an issue since. I recently took my own car in for some basic maintence. He charged me less for an oil change than Jiffy Lube, took care of my axle, and told me that my concern about my belts was unfounded and the belts were totally fine (again, something he could have easily just done and charged me for). Working with this shop was easy (they have a key drop off) and at no point was I concerned that we were being ripped off.

Upon dropping it off he quoted me a price and we agreed on it. When I came to pick them up later that day, Calvin told me it only took them half the time, and he refused to charge anymore time than what it took them. Seeing how honest they are and the quality of work they provide, they have gained a loyal customer. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for quality work with honest pricing. Shops like this are hard to come by these days.
