Can't say enough good things about the team here. They charged me LESS than I had agreed to for a full diagnosis, and then offered some advice as to why I should NOT give them the work! Can't find that level of honesty in many mechanics these days. But it pays, particularly saying that to others who responded to my Yelp project for the work I needed; I will never go back to anyone but them for all my transmission needs in the future. read more

I write this review before my vehicle has even been serviced. I got a diagnostic for my vehicle from another local mechanic. According to ChatGPT, the quote I was given was overpriced, and it was recommended that I shopped around for another quote. I turned to Yelp, within a few hours a had a number of quotes. Ethan of HD Auto Transmission answered all of my questions in a timely manner. I was given a generous quote and extended a veteran discount. HD Auto Transmission is a family-owned and operated company, and it shows. I'm deeply grateful to the owners, managers, and staff of this fine establishment for treating me and my family like... family. Give HD Auto Transmission a chance to display their exceptional customer service, communication, pricing, and craftsmanship. Thank you. read more

Honest no BS when servicing your vehicle and their prices are very reasonable ! Will be taking my vehicle here!

Had a busted transmission line they got on it as soon as I pulled up and I was on the road again within the hour they even cleaned up the undercarriage 100% recommend them read more

HD Auto was awesome. Family owned. They were extremely knowledgeable and honest from the get go. Repair was completed time and day stated. Definitely will be back. read more

Very reasonable price , friendly and fast service . Highly recommended . I needed new breaks and they did a great job for an affordable price read more

I got a transmission overhaul for my 90s Honda Accord here and everything was reasonably priced, fast, and efficient. It took their mechanics less than a week to set everything straight, which was great because I was borrowing a family member's car to go to work. Additionally, they kept me updated (over the phone) regarding the process and additional services that came up as they worked on my car. They don't move forward with anything without approval. So far, my car drives better than before and I haven't had any issues. I would definitely come back to this shop. read more

Best shop I've ever been to. Great customer service, even offered to physically show me everything while my car was getting worked on and showed me all my parts after it was completed. Wont be going anywhere else. read more

Yelp sent my project to these folks and they replied quickly. They do not perform the service I inquired about, but certainly professional and attentive to potentially future customers. Thank you so much for the reply! read more

A little pricey for an oil change but it was worth it compared to driving down the hill. Spending most of day with my mechanic to get one simple thing done.. despite the price it was worth it they got me in out with in 30 minutes and topped off all fluids. Will go back again. Highly recommend read more

I reached out over the weekend after hours when I was having a car repair emergency while visiting Joshua Tree. Luckily, I was able to get my car working, but the super fast and kind reply to my online inquiry and willingness in their offer to go above and beyond to try and help me with my car when they weren't even open was really impressive and appreciated. I'd give them my business anytime I'm in the area based on that alone. read more

I adore this business which is saying a lot because I went here when my transmission blew on my ford 2016 and I ended up selling the thing. Everyone there was really kind and honest. I appreciate how helpful they were, special shout out to Ethan. I will be recommending this company to anyone I know who needs car repairs. Much love :) read more

I went to go have my transmission checked out on 05.01.2025, (Mazda Miata 2010) and saw the reviews on HD Auto Transmission on Hesperia in Victorville, and the reviews are right, this is a 5 star company. First, I was impressed with how well the place was clean and organized for an auto shop (they don't have a lot of old cars and stuff all over the place). I always say that if the floors are clean, then the rest of the management is organized. I met Ethan, Nathan, and the rest of his crew. Everyone was very nice to speak to and explained everything that needed to be done and /or advised you to do it. You can tell that they take pride in the work that they do. My issue on the transmission is minor, but I was advised that they would need to open the transmission to fix it. So they recommended a workaround to stop the oil drip and stated that if that didn't stop it, then I would need to have the transmission opened to repair. I really like that because it gave me options, and I felt like they weren't trying to take advantage of the situation. I chose the workaround fix, and if that doesn't work, then I will definitely feel comfortable in taking it back to them to get it repaired (and by the way, the Mazda dealership would not touch it because they said the car was too old, although the car is still in showcase condition and is always garaged with still low miles...but I understand). So, with that said, if you are looking for a 5 star transmission auto place, I would highly recommend taking your car to HD Auto Transmissions and the prices were reasonable. Tell them you read Debbie's review...lol. read more

I usually drive down to orange county to get my car taken care but after battery issues with aaa telling me its an alternator issue, i messaged HD auto and they were able to get me in within a couple of hours. I didn't want to drive all the way down there, just in case. I have trust issues with mechanics. HUGE trust issues with mechanics, but im so glad with the people of yelp, i was able to find someone who would keep me from driving all the way down to oc. It wasn't an alternator issue, and they were able to assist with every little thing i kept asking for. The patience and time given by Ethan and the lady helping up front made me feel comfortable. (I didn't get the ladys name) I had them change 8 spark plugs, oil change, and air filter since i was already there. He told me the belts still looked good. Gave me an estimate of how much life i have on my brakes and tires, made sure to tell my fluids were topped off, etc. Very thorough and just overall patient and helpful. I appreciated everything they did and the amount of time given to me. Im talking nearly 30 minutes of me and my questions and them taking the time to explain, not mansplain. I would definitely recommend hd Auto for anyone uncomfortable with mechanics! Also, pay cash, and you save 3.8% from processing fees! (Or some sort of fee) still saved some money! read more

I have requested a transmission fluid flush. Ethan did a wonderful job in reassuring that the flush for my 2013 Kia Sorento would be easy. He gave two quotes that explained the details for each one and what that meant for the car. I mentioned the cabin air filter and he gave me a quote and added it to the work order. He also changed the air filter. They showed me the cabin filter and it was super dirty.Pricing was reasonable based on the work that was done. It took about 4-5 hours for them to complete the work. I am a happy customer . read more

Hi Yelpers, I worked with Ethan the owner to get 4 new spark plugs installed. I do my maintenance meticulously. I'm tired of the super high prices at the dealerships. I did a quote request on Yelp. I was obviously looking for the best price, but I also value quick responses and customer service. HD transmission hits all three. I got to my appointment at 8AM. I got serviced in one hour and got to my job in time. I'm truly grateful to have a honest mechanic right in my backyard. I also love supporting small business. Thank you so much HD Auto Transmissions. read more

Professional, courteous and more importantly, honest. Good communication by Ethan who did a great job replacing the oil sensor in my 2008 Yukon. Best price in town after multiple quotes. read more

Thanks Ethan for your help repairing my car. The customer service is outstanding. I brought my car in to replace the starter and battery and it was finished by the next morning. If you your looking for a mechanic you should consider them. There an honest family business and good people. read more

Recently had to have my transmission rebuilt, after 5 minutes talking to Ethan we agreed and I took the transmission to them.( Bench job). Five days later I went back and picked it up. Reinstalled the transmission and took it to them the next day per Ethan's request, On the test drive Ethan said it was shifting in hard and going into lockout. Next day I dropped it off and they had it fixed by 4.They changed the second gear spring and a new solenoid/ not working and found a mass vacuum , Ethan repaired, picked up the truck and noticed right away it was shifting like it was new.. Very happy with how it all turned out , very professional and knowledgeable business. I recommend them highly for your transmission needs. read more

This place is exemplary in service, communication, the work they do, and the quality! I couldn't express more gratitude for their work!! we found them from Yelp reviews and so grateful we did! Even when we went into the office we were treated like family. Most definitely the place to go! Ethan was the best communicator and truly cares about the people they are helping! Gave me a quote and it was within range of what he said. Even saved me money as well!!! Give them a try! You won't regret it!!! read more

Very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Family owned and operated. Very fair prices. Would definitely recommend to family and friends.

Dealership was going to charge $250 for a CVT fluid change. Originally told them they could do it so I wouldn't have to deal with it later. Stealership forgot to do it and offered to do it the next day. Negative- had the chance to take my money and they apparently didn't want it bad enough. Looked through yelp to hopefully find a local shop to support. Ethan quoted me $60 if I brought in certified Subaru fluid. Fluid cost about $130 total and the total still came in $60 less than the dealership, and about the same as what my coworker paid for his automatic. Good mechanics are about 50 in 100. Honest and fair mechanics are 1 in a million. These guys will have to open another shop to keep up with demand if they keep up the honest work. read more

If you're looking for a trustworthy and honest mechanic this is the place. Took my truck with a bad transmission and they had me fixed in less than two days. Family owned ( father and son ) really nice people. Very thorough explaining everything to me. I wouldn't go anywhere else now that I've found these guys. Very reasonable prices also. read more

Extremely thrilled to find competent auto mechanics in the HD. Delightful family owned business who really have pride and integrity in their work. They were very friendly, informative, and competent with very reasonable rates using only the best parts. They replaced my brakes and did a 75,000 maintenance on my Subaru Outback. I could not be happier and highly recommend them. You will not be sorry!!! read more

I gave them a radiator and coolant they installed my radiator for 300 dollars then kept my coolant and didn't fill it

I took my car in to get my CV shaft fixed. They did an excellent job, excellent customer service. I highly recommend them and I will be going back to them for more service. read more

Called HD transmission because my 2008 Scion alternator needed to be replaced. Response time to my messaging on yelp was extremely quick. Ethan was helpful and straight forward with pricing, (before going to the shop i did a little research of my own) Ethan was spot on with pricing and did not try to rip me off like most shops do. It's definitely an honest, friendly, family owened business. I'll continue to bring my vehicle's here. Thanks HD Transmission read more

My poor little 2007 RAV4, we would drive and it would shift into all gears until I got warm. It would no longer allow us to go into any gear. We had our vehicle towed to HD auto transmissions. The people were very polite. Seem to be very knowledgeable. We drop the car off and they informed me that the filter is clogged. Vehicle does have high mileage. At this time I could not see rebuilding it, they gave me multiple options. I chose to just have the filter replaced, knowing if the filters clogged that there's damage inside the transmission. But they were completely upfront with me. Transmission last for little while longer, then it went completely out. Took a transmission back to them and have them rebuild it. Cost me a little extra because I chose just to change the filter the first time. So I paid for the first service and then paid for the rebuilding. But I'm still happy with them. They do excellent work. This was about a month ago or more. Would recommend them if you have transmission repairs. read more

If you want an honest mechanic for your transmission this is the place. I took my classic 66 mustang coupe here. As it turns out I had to have a complete rebuild. I received a fair quote and the quote was completely on target. There were no surprises and she is running like a 66 should. I am I so glad I took my baby here . They even took pictures to prove the damage to my transmission ( something that is not heard of today!) This is my transmission shop from now on! Thankyou for being honest and fair!!! read more

My car got the engine messed up because of no oil change, this happened on Sunday when they were closed. Ethan was kind enough to offer to go into the office to provide a quote. I declined since it was not fair to them. However, They provided a quote the next business day, and they also revised their quote and offered a more accurate way to avoid further issues. The service was great, we will provide another review if anything changes. Thanks! read more

I took my car because my transmission was slipping and these guys did a great job fixing it. Fair price, fast service and quality work.

So a family member who drives our F150 is about to start a 30 hour trip to another state, but we discovered a leaking rear differential. We were in a bit of a crunch for time due to the sudden discovery. It was almost 10pm on a Sunday night and I was researching local transmission shops via Yelp. I came upon HD Auto Transmissions, they had good reviews and I saw that I could message them via Yelp. I sent a message and wow, within about a couple of minutes, I got a response from Ethan. I totally expected that I wouldn't hear anything until morning. Ethan gave me an approximate quote for the repair and was able to get our truck in on a day that worked for us. Ethan recontacted me the next morning to give me a more exact quote which was fair. I was able to bring the truck to them the day before and they had room to store it it inside. Ethan and the other guy working at the shop, who I assumed was the owner, were both very friendly and accomodating. The truck was ready the next day, earlier than expected. Thanks HD transmissions, you definitely earned my future business. read more

Had my wife take my Jeep into the shop because she heard a scraping noise she though was the brakes. They looked it over determined the brakes needed to be replaced but that wasn't the sound. The left rear bearing was leaking and grinding. Great customers service all around and treated my wife amazingly. read more

HD Auto Transmission does not compare to any business in the High Desert when it comes to customer service (OUTSTANDING). The best service I've ever had in my 22 years living here. My 1st contact with them was here on YELP and I was very impressed from the start. I loved the way they asked questions to find out what issues I was having with my car to give me correct solutions without trying to sell me anything unnecessary. They ended up fixing my problem for a lot less then the agreed quote, where most places would have found other issues to rack up other charges. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HD Auto Transmission for their OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE and their HONESTY. read more

quick responds, very polite, straight forward on prices fast service was able to submit my request and get my SUV right away. will be using for future services read more

Honest, reliable and time efficient. They quoted a very fair price and communicated along the way! I won't go anywhere else. Thank you hd auto! read more
