Very efficient..however..these days went in for oil change.. come out with other repairs.. Though ,I am glad mechanic saw I needed replacement gaskets at motor. But he scared me by stating everything broken .that scares me..my car is not klunking or making any noise.

I recently took my 2010 Dodge Ram 1500 into PROTRANS due to transmissions. I have high mileage truck that I commute in and play in. My issues were that my transmission started sticking into gears, and resisted upshifts- under acceleration. It was a frustrating problem. So, I googled a local transmission shop in Riverside on Gato Street after reading their reviews online. Not knowing what to expect when I walked in, I was met by Mike who said they fix issues like this all the time. They were able to assess the problem quickly and quoted me a reasonable price on a rebuild, which I agreed to. I picked up my truck a few days later and I could not believe just how well my truck drove. It has never driven better with zero shifting issues. They did a better job on my truck transmission than I ever anticipated. I would highly recommend PROTRANS to anyone who is in need of transmission service!

Just serviced my three vehicles for my regular oil changes. I advised Luz at the front desk that I'm closely monitoring the state of my oldest vehicle's engine (over 200,000 miles), and requested they advise me of the oil condition. Following the service, and with my vehicle on the rack, Luz escorted me to the garage, where the technician showed me my just-removed oil filter and explained the relevant indications. Nice touch. Pro Trans has been my go-to shop for the last eight years, ever since a AAA recommendation for an emergency transmission repair. Bsed on that initial outstanding experience, they have become my preferred shop for nearly all my vehicle maintenance and repair needs for the last eight years. The reasons are simple: honesty, competence, and thoroughness = peace of mind. Friendly and conscientious service desk is icing on the cake. Thanks to Michael and his employees for running a great shop. (Caitlin is nice, too!)

Protrans is great! It's already a nightmare having to get a new transmission but they made the process very easy and had my vehicle up in running the same week i took it in. My car ran even better than before! had someone not recently totaled it, I'm sure i would have gotten a lot more life out of it. Definitely recommend ?

Our brakes failed on us two months after taking it to Ford for a brake repair and we refused to take it back there after. Protrans Automotive took our car with no appointment and called us regularly for updates. The mechanics fixed up our brakes in a very efficient manner with very reasonable prices for the work done. Will definitely be coming back here again for future repairs! Bravo

These folks are awesome!!! I brought my prized, restored classic Mustang in for a new starter and flywheel replacement, which at first was a bit of a challenge because it's difficult to find mechanics willing and, moreover, knowledgeable of these older cars. They did not hesitate to accept the challenge and went ahead and did the repair. Unfortunately, five months later, both the flywheel and starter failed just a mile from the shop. Since the car was still operational (after a push start), I brought it by and was immediately met with assurance that the entire job, parts and labor, were covered under their warranty for a year, and in my case, being a AAA member, for two years. The gal at the front counter (Luz), who is super nice, said they would get it in the shop right away and see what had happened. A couple of days later, I met with Michael (the owner), who calmly reassured me that they always stand behind their work and would get the repair done, no matter what. In the end, they identified a couple of possible issues that may have caused the failure, and to make sure that it didn't happen again, they put together a higher-quality setup with better parts, and now the car operates better than ever. I highly recommend calling them first!

The wonderful team at ProTrans helped me out IMMENSELY when I called with an emergency. I had a kitten under my hood that I could not get out!

So last year I was recommended to go to Pro Trans. I have a 2015 Fiat 500. They did excellent work. This year I needed a little follow up with the same situation, and they took even better care of my car. I can't recommend them enough, not only do they take excellent care of your car, the staff is also wonderful!

Always happy with the excellent customer service, follow-up, and quality of work done. I've been going to Protrans Automotive for a few years now and Jeff and Michael have always been upfront and honest. I have never had a bad result or negative experience ---all at very fair prices in all the work I've had done. A good mechanic(s)--priceless.

Fantastic work! I called around to a couple of shops and they told me they couldn't help me with my 28 foot class A motor home. Those other shops recommended Protrans. I called and Cory got my RV in the next business day and my coach transmission was diagnosed that afternoon. It was quick and Cory and Jeff worked with our schedule as we had a trip reserved for that weekend. The team at Protrans rebuilt my E4OD transmission and got me back on the road by that weekend. We drove our RV 500 miles to and from death Valley via Towne pass (4963ft from sea level) no problems. ALOT OF CONFIDENCE in this transmission for sure!

I brought my 2012 Honda Civic Natural Gas Vehicle to Protrans b/c it couldn't be serviced at the Dealer. Protrans was able to define the issue(s); work thru them & get my vehicle back on the road. No issues for over 6 months now. The Team is polite, very knowledgable, but most importantly professional. I highly recommend Protrans for anyone that needs service for their vehicle.

This is a great shop. I bought the the bilstein b12 pro suspension kit and was originally going to put it on myself. When I realized it was something I was in over my head I contacted Protrans. I heard back from Jeff and we were able to make an appointment for the next day. Brought my car in and it was done the same day. Everyone I talked to from the shop was very respectful and professional. I will be recommending this shop to all my friends and family and will be coming back for future work. ??

Jeff was Awesome ? Thank you again for all the help! My husband and I couldn't be happier. We have a Ford Fusion and there were a number of things that had to be repaired and they brought my car back to life. My engine was overheating and had problems with the a/C, Jeff had also noticed I needed some new tires and gave me and my family a great deal. I'm so glad I came to you guys when I did.

Would definitely recommend Protrans. They were extremely friendly, had a clean facility and very communicative. I was ready for a rebuilt transmission but they discovered it was motor mounts and would cost a fraction of the rebuilt quote. Will be taking all of my vehicles here from now on.

These guys are the real deal. From the moment I called, the lady at the front desk was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Never left me waiting or wondering.

09/12/2023

Service was friendly, clear, and respectful. Went in for a coolant leak and failing coolant fans. They charged 130$ to find the leak and about 1000$ to replace the fans and the water pump. They made some extra maintenance suggestions but were very clear on what was essential to fix the leak, and what was only a suggestion. Not pushy at all. The prices they told me ahead of time matched up with what they actually billed me for. They had the problem diagnosed the same day I took the car in and had it repaired by the next day. I had to use a payment plan for the first time to cover part of the cost. They made it easy and quick to get a good loan. It's been a week since I went in and the car hasn't had any problems since. Car was a chevy sonic.

Protrans Automotive & Transmission the personnel at your service station are Honest and informative; providing the utmost work on my GMC Terrain. The car was checked out with an engine analyzer prior to visit. Your mechanics did a diagnostic check and came up with the same code. So, I was relieved the service station was not going to rip me of.. or take advantage of a senior citizen. Timely, informative and status of recommended work was provided. Updates discussed before their professional work continued. When I picked up my vehicle, such a difference!! It was like I received a brand new car. The Terrain runs so smoothly. The company they they run shows talent and professionalism in their automotive Skills!! Thanks, Jackie

Twice now I've had the pleasure of having my 2007 Dodge Ram serviced with this fantastic business. The most recent was last week prior to that about 5 years ago. The first time was the alternator and battery replacement with a long drive home to follow. A little scary but everything worked out just fine. Visiting family once again last week when my check engine light illuminated.. yikes! Not to worry! From the first phone call with Corey to schedule an appointment to working with Jeff and Michael to get the issue resolved before returning home to Arizona! Communication was excellent! They even looked into getting my side view mirror replaced however I was unable to stick around for them to complete it. Darn it! All the same I highly highly recommend ProTrans!!! Their pricing is reasonable along with the reliable service. Best I've ever experienced. Give them a try they will not let you down! God bless

This was my first time visit at Protrans Automotive, I did not know what to expect and was worried about how bad my car was and what it would cost me. Jeff greeted me and was very professional and welcoming. While my car was being repaired, I made arrangements to rent a car at a rental place, which was about 1/2 mile away. I was offered a ride to the car rental place by Protrans, which was really nice and accommodating since the weather was very frigid that morning. That afternoon, Jeff called me and advised my car was ready and it was not nearly as bad as I had anticipated. I was pleased with their hospitality and professionalism. I am happy with my car and it is running great!!! Thank you for your great service.

Where do i start.. Wednesday afternoon 3pm before Thanksgiving on way home to Phoenix, car goes into limp mode, got referred to Protrans. Called them they agreed to take a look. Diagnosed, parts ordered and Throttle Body replaced and road tested. So very excited to know that there are still Honest shops out there that actually care about their clients. Highly recommend Protrans.



11/19/2022

Very friendly! They checked our car and gave us professional recommendations for free! Will surely go back to them when next oil change needed.



11/18/2022

Went in for transmission repair, after diagnosing the problem they told me I didn't need a full rebuild saving me well over $1,000.00. They found some safety issues I wasn't aware of and I had them take care of all of them. The truck is running great! Thank you Protrans.

Jeff, Matt and Hayley and the team at Protrans did an incredible job and went above and beyond for us. We had a one of a kind, 1970 Ford Chinook Motor Home that made it down to Joshua Tree from Homer Alaska. It sat during the pandemic and we finally rescued her almost 3 years later. She did not deal with the transition to desert life smoothly and was leaking badly and ran terribly. We had her towed to Riverside and found Protrans from a referral from another shop. The team at Protrans rebuilt the transmission and went through the engine to get us back on the road without breaking our budget. Jeff was good about communicating and Matt even drove over the day after we picked it up to help assess some issues that came up on the way home. Can't say enough about the professionalism, care, and service we received and would recommend them to anyone for all car repairs!

Good Day; The service at "Protrans" was "Top Notch "! Before I took my car to "Protrans", I took it to another service center and I was told that it needed a Transmission Replacement to the tune of $3,500.00. I then took it to "Protrans" for a second opinion and their tech found that all that was needed was for the front wheel bearing to be replaced. That was a savings of over $3,000.00 dollars! So if you need ANY work done on your automobile I would have "PROTRANS" check it out first.

07/18/2022

Very grateful and impressed with Hayley, Jeff and Mike at Protrans. Dealer quoted $3000 for a new transmission. Took it to Protrans for a second opinion. They honestly called and reported that it was just an issue with the driveshaft and $150 later I was out the door. I appreciate the honesty and integrity of Jeff and this company. Would highly recommend and would return!

My family and I love this place! Our car had a leak and started smoking the day we had to leave Riverside and we found this place through amazing reviews.

They are super attentive considering they remembered us and our situation even though we only spoke on the phone about it! They were transparent about prices and fees so you don't have to worry about hidden charges and they made sure to get our approval before proceeding.

Had a transmission redone here about a year ago now, never have had a mechanic that I trust until now. They were great at communicating what was going on and didn't try to suck all the money out of me like a lot of mechanics do. They did exactly what they said they were going to do and didn't do "extra" to jack up the price. Very professional and quick. I'd recommend to anyone. A+ shop. Tiny bit more expensive than some other places, but the quality is worth the extra money.

Recommended my mother to visit for her cars AC issue. Got it done for much less than the dealership would have done it for. It was about 450-550. Dealership would have done it for 700-900. They perform quality service for fair prices. For anything beyond swap part service (self servicing / maintenance), these guys can meet your cars service needs that you may not have the tools or equipment for.

Great experience. Professional, friendly, transparent/no games, excellent ownership/staff, good value. They have been taking care of my business trucks and personal for over 9 years, this is BY FAR, THE BEST SHOP IN Riverside county. The mechanics are extremely knowledgeable, ready to work with you. I'll be using these guys for repair service for years to come.

Recommended by AAA. Car was towed, because I thought it had transmission problems. They determined it was not the issue, and only recommended a couple other repairs. I found them extremely honest, since they could have falsely said it needed a new transmission. I would highly recommend Protrans Automotive & Transmission. Thanks!

I had to take my car in for an engine light about changing the air fuel sensor, which I had been trying to get off for over a year at a different mechanic. I had no faith that it could come off, and was worried that I would just have to replace the entire exhaust manifold. I took it to Protrans as a last ditch effort, and I am so glad I did! Everyone was extremely welcoming, and were determined to figure out the best solution for my car. It ended up being a battle to get the air fuel sensor off, but they did it! I was so impressed with their determination and skill, and so, so happy that they saved me from having to replace the whole manifold. I am a college student, so car stuff makes me pretty nervous, I'm always worried about getting scammed or way overcharged because I don't know better. But at Protrans, I worked with Hayley, who empathized with my nerves and made sure that I understood every step of the process and felt comfortable the whole time. I highly recommend Protrans for any car issues, they rock!

I was nervous about finding a shop to work on my truck since there are so many shady mechanics out there, but Protrans ended up doing an amazing job. They were great about communicating with me throughout the whole process as well. I believe I paid a fair price for the repair and they didn't try to sell me a bunch of service that I don't need. I will certainly be using them in the future if I need to.

Michael and his team are the best I have encountered, specially having Mercedes and Volvo. I am a repeat customer and always very satisfied. Honest and trustworthy. Thank you very much.


Repair completed as promised. Friendly staff. Convenient location.


Reasonable prices. Friendly helpful staff. The thank you card was icing on the cake! So refreshing to have great customer service!


Wonderful service, reliable and fair.I hope it is ok to post this link on your side. In a sense, it is a testament to the art of car maintenance.


Protrans is awesome! They're reliable and the only shop in town that I trust to get the job done right.


After going to not one, not two, but THREE transmission shops, Protrans was the ONLY one to figure out what was wrong with it, and saved me $2200. No one could tell me what was wrong and I was being told I need to completely rebuild my transmission. I decided to get a second and third opinion and after dropping it off to Protrans, they figured out what was wrong with it, serviced it, and I walked out the door spending a lot less than expected. I truly cannot emphasize enough on how they were the only one of three places that could run the right codes and diagnose the problem. Great customer service, amazing help, and overall great quality of work.


I went in for a new alternator and after many tests, it was found I didn't need one! Most companies, I feel, would take advantage of my ignorance when it comes to cars but Protrans was honest and gave me all the info timely.


Pro Trans provides stellar service!They are all knowledgeable and did a great job fixing my transmission leak on my BMW. In addition they saved me money! Highly recommend them for all your car needs!


For those looking for a professional, reasonable and reliable automotive mechanic check out PROTRANS. My 2009 Toyota needed repairs. This company was honest and forthcoming, whereas other companies tried to charge me double. Thanks PROTRANS.


So far I am satisfied with their work. Very accommodating. The front staff/receptionist is very helpful and polite.


Mike and his team are The BEST in Riverside! They give a fair price and stand behind the work. I have an old pickup truck, and together we are restoring it. I feel Mike welcomes you into his family gives you rides when your car is in the shop. Has late night drop off and will stay late for you to pick up your car after work. He help's get to know your situation, what you absolutely need, and what you can put off. Mike's shop has played a considerable role in getting my Dad's old truck running.


My husband and my sister has taken 3-4 vehicles to Protrans over the years. Including a work truck for a trans, his GMC for trans service and brakes +. They have always up front with everything and reasonably priced.


This is the BEST auto repair I have ever found! Total integrity and honesty! I totally recommend them for any and all auto repair needs! Thank to everyone at Protrans!!!

Just the brief statement if you have no time to read my story: They handled my calls and my mechanical issues in a professional and very honest matter which, its hard to find these days. I do 100% recommend this shop. No matter how far but I'm taking my car there from now. My son was involve in an accident and the hood and front end was damaged. The car was leaking and overheated. They could easily add up cost to it (you know what i'm talking about). He is an student in UC-Riverside. I don't leave in Riverside myself so after calling around and reading reviews I towed the car to Protrans automotive.... My contacts were Samantha and Mike. They diagnosed to check for possible problems then he got back to me with just one issue which was the Radiator and he said he had to do some body work since the Core Support damaged the Radiator and he did that for free of coast and gave me a grate pricing just to change the Radiator and flushing the coolant system. They also tuned the body work just to make it look better for free of charge. After that i asked them to change my break and check for other problems. My car is 2002 an old model Hyundai and again they could easily add other issues. In overall after 30yrs i can say that i genuinely trust these guys words and their works. Do not hesitate to contact them. Try them please.

So instead of looking for a new car today I'll be driving around my old one. Why? Because the people at ProTrans in Riverside totally took care of me. It turned out that my motor mount was bad, not my transmission, but did they up-sell me? Not at all. They fixed the problem, same day, for $200 and because I have AAA it comes with a 24,000 mile 24-month warranty. My car works great again, no loud shuddering, and I'm a VERY happy customer! :DDD I was recommended to come here by another very happy customer and picky car owner who had nothing but praise for this place.

Life savers. After running around town 5 or 6 different places they were referred and Sandy at front desk (who should be a mechanic, knows about cars) put me at ease. Talked to a tech Mark he took my car for a spin, knew what was wrong and my car found a new repair shop. Mike breaks down to the bolt explaining the issue. Sandy has a place she can call if you want or need to rent a car. They will drop you off and pick you up at the Hertz rental. They will not rush to fix your vehicle, they treat your car as if it was their personal car. Will only do the work that is necessary and if something else is needed will call you first.

Place rebuilt my ?98 stang with a 4r70w auto trans for a reasonable price with a shift kit included for 2Gs. This shop was honest about what work needed to be done and won?t try to take advantage of you, knowing a bit about cars myself it was something I could feel out. They got my car out reasonabley quick, roughly little over a week. I was also very impressed with them putting my interior back together without breaking anything, these old cars have loads of brittle plastic clips and I?ve torn apart this interior many times, breaking clips from before, so again fantastic job with that. Everything was not disturbed if you?re worried about personal items. The only grief I had, though I wasn?t mad nor complaining about it because things happen was my radiator trim was missing (they had to replace the rad. To insure my transmission would not get water back into the system) and my old radiator cap was not put onto the new radiator. It was a cap that releases the pressure out of the system safely. I was told after I got it back that they?re known to fail which is why it was ruled out. This was something that should of been asked of if I wanted to throw it out or not, not automatically making that decision for me, but it?s cool and I?ve never had issues with these caps, call me lucky? But aside from that upon returning to get those two items back, one of the dudes checked my transmission fluid just to make sure things were sound still and topped my radiator a little more and also talked to one of the rebuilders about the shift kit. Cool dudes, would recommend to a friend looking for a cheap rebuild and professional care.

Had to use the "T" word problems, not the Kendal/Bruce Jenner "T" word but transmission. I live in Perris, not the fancy one, and started calling local shops for transmission help, no transmission person mostly general mechanics. Called Protrans and the nice lady who answered the phone said she would check with their transmission guy. I brought my Dodge 3500 truck in and the transmission guy was familiar with the problem and said he would look into it. As we all know transmissions are made with Leprechaun hair and Unicorn tears and their magic is very expensive so I figured if I could find a virgin to sacrifice to the transmission Gods all would be well. I couldn't find a virgin, on a side note don't search for virgins on Craigslist on a work computer, Richard from IT will call you to see if you are at yours and then that lady from HR comes with some flyers about company computer policies. So they called and I steeled myself for the amount, the price they first gave me I asked how much would the labor be, they it was inclusive. When I went to pick it up he explained what he had done and why he did it. I looked at the paperwork and in my most masculine voice I said, "that's what I thought it needed" The bill did surprise me it was actually a little less than we agreed to with no extra hidden charges or services. I would definitely recommend them to everyone. The only thing that could make them better would be if they were an AAA approved repair facility. oh wait they are!

Have been a ProTrans customer for years, per being highly recommended by another, long-time, highly regarded mechanic to whom a friend of mine and his father have gone for years - but this shop was too booked to take me at the time, and so recommended ProTrans; and, as I say, I couldn't be happier. I trust them implicitly - and their honesty and trustworthiness is the most important thing to me.

Took my car in for a weird clunking noise that had me completely confused. I told them that I was thinking it might be a wheel bearing, brake rotor, end link, everything that came to mind regarding the sound. Of course the only thing I didn?t think to do last time I changed my brakes was properly torque my wheel lug nuts. They were swamped when I dropped my car off but managed to diagnose the problem quickly and effectively with effective communication throughout. This is a team of smart, honest mechanics that have earned my repeat business in the future.

Protrans has been AMAZING from start to finish! I thought my BMW 550i transmission was toast. I was expecting to pay at LEAST 5k in repairs, but Protrans had me back on the road for MUCH, MUCH less than I ever thought. They are friendly, knowledgeable, and go above and beyond to assure you're comfortable and happy. **I wanted to highlight the customer service I received from JEFF. He truly was great to work with at such a stressful time. Thank you to everyone at Protrans I would highly recommend to all.

I am so thankful for Protrans Automotive! They were there when I needed them the most. My car had a flat tire around 10pm in a city I wasn?t familiar with. AAA recommended Protrans because they had an overnight service option & were not far from where I had my flat. Not knowing anything else about Protrans, I was able to drop my key in an overnight envelope and box. The next morning, around 7:30am, Haley called to let me know they had received my car and were in the process of locating a tire for me. Within an hour, she called back to let me know they had found a tire and from there, she listed the prices etc. She told me there might be a possibility it could be more, if they had to fix the tire pressure reader thingy! Well, long story short: I got my car back looking better than ever and they didn?t have to add the pressure thingy so no extra charge! Not only is Protrans reliable, they are honest!! I highly recommend this shop for all your car needs! Thank you so much!!

Through the an unfortunate failed manual transmission opportunity on my Celica, I came to know Protrans Automotive. They diagnosed that the clutch had worn out, and after the job, they showed and explained to me how the parts had worn out. Throughout the process, I received professional and courteous service at the front desk. On my 2nd visit, I asked Protrans to service my van's transmission to alleviate my concern over possible debris stuck inside, and they opened the cleaned out some debris. They also gave me an honest diagnose and honest quote on my A/C. So I would say you will get what you pay for.

I was in Riverside for work when my car needed transmission work. Another shop wasted 2 days with my car and couldn't tell me much more than I already knew; rather than wait a few more days for that other shop to get back to my car, I brought it to Protrans instead. They made more progress in 2 hours than that other shop did in 2 days, and they had my car fixed and back on the road before that other shop would have even started on it. I just wish I had brought my car here in the first place! Protrans charged a fair price for the work and the staff kept me informed on my car's progress.

I normally dont leave reviews but this place deserves all the recognition. I came to the shop for my Ford Mustang interested in a rebuild because I knew the car was having transmission issues. Michael and Hailey were extremely professional, and courteous in taking my car in free of charge for a diagnostic to make sure the vehicle was actually having the issues I suspected and to make sure before going through with a rebuild. The same afternoon I was told what was wrong with my vehicle. After confirming the car needed the rebuild, Michael broke down the whole process and explained everything his technician would do to my car and told me beforehand the exact price it would all come out to, no surprise fees, and a 2 year or 24k mile warranty included with my rebuild. I also knew id need a new transmission mount but wanted to see if they would ask me about and they did, Hailey explained to me that when pulling the transmission they caught the transmission mount was in real bad shape, and let me know how much a new one with them would cost and that if I didnt approve of any part replacements that I would not be charged for them. Not only that but I wasnt charged a labor fee for installing it, considering it needed to come off already in order for the car to be worked on. I came by mid through the rebuild to get an update and Michael was really informative of the situation and gave me an accurate date as to when id be able to come and pick my car up. Ater the rebuild was finished, Hailey rung me up and as Michael had said the price was exactly what it was and only paid extra for the transmission mount which I hadnt been originally quoted for. Michael even gave me a discount on the rebuild, and honored the warranty. I even met the transmission technician afterwards and he himself explained everything done, nd honestly was impressed at the knowledge and dedication behind the employees. In general, if you need any sort of car repair or maintenance, dont waste time or cut corners, the folks at Protrans Automotive are honest, professional and genuine. They're the job done right, the first time, at an affordable price. I will be bringing all my car needs to them. And no, im not paid to write this review, I had read comments saying they pay for good reviews. They only showed me their service, and did an amazing job thus I am here spreading awareness of it.

Went in for check engine light. It was for the fuel pressure sensor which I had replaced myself but the light came back on. The tank was dropped which wasn?t cheap but upon dropping it it was discovered that the fuel pump was the original from 2004 not sure how it lasted 300k but that was replaced as well. Three days after getting my suburban back the check engine light came back. I was bummed but sometimes it take two tries to fix a problem with a vehicle with 300k on it. Second time there were five wires that had been corroded and had bare copper showing causing my issues. The light is off now and the ac is blowing cold again. If you go here and your issue doesn?t get fixed the first time just be patient and understanding they will take care of you.

I took my old MK1A MR2 into the shop that needed extensive diagnostics in order to find the root problem of a no start condition. The technicians who troubleshooted my car were careful and precise with their work. As a result, the service wasn?t fast, in fact it took about a week to diagnose the problem. But this is exactly why I rate this shop highly - good service doesn?t automatically imply fast service. My MR2 had already been in a shop previously and afterward was being worked on by me, but I couldn?t figure out the issue. Because the mechanics took their time and carefully diagnosed my car, it?s back on the road and has been for over a week now. Their workmanship has proven to be of professional quality. I will be coming back to this shop for future repairs. Slow and perfect is better than fast and sloppy!

While traveling from AZ to Riverside,CA my 2009 Jeep Wrangler?s transmission got stuck in second gear. Fortunately there was stop and go traffic so I was able to continue to drive. Once I got to Riverside that afternoon I looked up transmission repair shops. The site for Protrans had many good reviews, so I went there when they opened the next morning. After explaining my problem Jeff, Hayley and their team checked out what the problem was with my transmission. They discovered that there was two shift sensors that were bad. So they did a thorough inspection and service of the transmission. Sent someone to Rancho Cucamonga to get the parts. Also, they replaced my engine oil due to the stress the engine went through by driving in second gear. I?m very thankful to Jeff and Hayley for making my Jeep?s problem a priority. It only took 6 hrs and I was back on the road. I highly recommend Protrans for any automotive repair/service. They are very knowledgeable and professional. Also, they take good care of their customers and give a veterans discount that not too many other shops do. I only wish that they were located closer to where I live. Many thanks Protrans Team!

Over the last four years, I have seen three independent repair shops close or change hands. My first solid-gold mechanic and shop-owner retired after serving me 15 years. In my search for another solid-gold repair-shop, I experienced the costs of search, trial and error. My second solid-gold mechanic/shop-owner retired four years after the first one, in January. Pro-Trans had been on my list, but they seemed to be less conveniently located. To tell the truth, they also seemed to be promising in other regards, but the location and appearance of their facility suggested that a customer could pay extra for their overhead -- nice lounge, at least a couple of service advisors, toney industrial park with plenty of parking space. But, you see, those extra features are less expensively paid out of returns from an expanding customer-base. This time, I needed a second-opinion about my tire reseller who served me for 15 years. I wanted new tires, but the tire reseller insisted I had defective ball-joints, which had been installed by a Little Shop of Horrors with a Mechanic from Hell only four years earlier, during my first search for a new repair-shop. . Expect those part to last six times longer. So I called ProTrans. We settled on a day and time, and I waited on their verdict, confirming the defective parts. The reseller had also quoted me a price for the tires and ball-joints inconsistent to what he'd quoted just a few years earlier, although I expected to pay more for the tires. So I then asked Protrans for their own estimate. They saved me $100 on the very same tires with identical warranty service, and $250 on the suspension work. As for their employees, you can call them "mechanics" but they fully deserve the title of "technician". They are polite, and they respect not only the customer, but his vehicle. Maybe you have a low-mileage ride with half the remaining coverage of a drive-train warranty, but you need oil-changes and transmission flushes from time to time. Or maybe you're a used-car extremist, like me, who occasionally gets his hands dirty but wants to know of a solid-gold repair shop and their certified mechanics to keep his vehicle tip-top. Protrans has the expertise and the inclination to service newer and older vehicles of many different makes and models, and the service advisors gracefully handle all types of customers. Again, many thinks to Michael, Jeff, Haley, Tom, Will and the rest of the team, including the considerate young man who did the first work on my tire and ball-joint assignment. As for the wheel-alignment, I was never so impressed by the ride in my 26-year-old SUV. I think I've found my third solid-gold repair shop, and I expect them to stay in business for a comfortable future. Given the way I was treated, this is the best I can do to help them add to their list of returning customers, beyond the less-costly periodic maintenance I surely know I will need myself.

I brought my 2018 Ford F-150 into Protrans because my transmission was staying in low gears too long before shifting. I originally went to Ford but they said it was within range and did nothing. ProTrans listened to my concerns and researched the issue. They found out the transmission computer basically needed to a reboot. The trans shifts smooth now. Thanks ProTrans for going the extra mile. I will bring my other cars to you for now on.

Where to begin! I recently just bought a car from a private seller who sold me a very bad Miata :/. He let me drive off with a very bad transmission ! Sadly got stuck on the freeway! The car only went up to 45mph then died. I went to multiple shops near by my community in Moreno Valley and none of them had the parts or said they had the parts to help rebuild my 91 MIATA transmission . The shops said it CAN NEVER BE FIXED UR OUT OF LUCK !!! . These shops were scamming me and using my diagnosis as there way to rip me off!!!and keep in mind I had to pay towing fees due the car not being able to drive because of the transmission . As I came down to my Very Final resort I chose to come to Protrans Automotive ! They offered me a FREE INSPECTION ! YES FREE!!! It was an answer to my prayers ! I was very pleased and honored that they let me come next day to get the car checked ! I felt happy after all the trouble I was going through of being sold a bad car. Protrans checked my car and told me they could not find another Transmission , but IT CAN BE REBUILT ! YES REBUILT ! I WAS SUPER HAPPY AND I FELT FINALLY A PLACE THAT WAS NOT LYING TO ME NOR SCAMMING ME ! We started the rebuild process and we did run into a few bumps of trying to find parts for the rebuild BUT PROTRANS NEVER LET ME DOWN ! THEY ALWAYS FOUND THE PARTS !!! THEY ALWAYS MADE SURE TO BEND THIER BACKS FOR THIER CUSTOMERS !!!!!! :) Jeff was always the man whom always kept me informed and updated on what parts were needed and why we needed them ! It shows that this place has nothing to hide but HONESTY ITSELF ! They gave me a tour of where my car was in the garage and why they took certain parts out and when it?s all going to get done ! Jeff always gave me his best customer Service skills ! I just personally want to deeply thank Jeff for keeping me updated ! The heart friendly people at the front desk who always helped me when I came in to check in and the mechanics who did an amazing job on my MIATA !!! IT WORKS VERY WELL ! I do not know who personally worked on my car but thank you ! I can now sleep at night knowing I was not scammed on buying a car but SAVED BY PROTRANS ! BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE ! BEST PRICING ! BEST WORK !!!!! Thank you ! Hope to see y?all soon with my Acura ! Can not wait to come back !!! HONEST PEOPLE !!! GOD BLESS YALL ! :)

Made a next day transmission fluid appointment and the staff went above and beyond to get the job done on my car. They even broke everything down to me and pointed out another issue on my car from an earlier mechanic at a different shop. Will definitely recommend.

Very professional! They found the cause of strange high frequency vibration at a speed about 55mph on my F150 and fixed it. After that, I drove my truck all the way from SoCal to upstate New York. It ran like a beast. Great job on fixing my truck! Thanks!

We've been going to Pro Trans since Mike, the owner, was working on vehicles himself. I think he started Pro Trans just a little while before we started going to him. Over 20 years I believe. We had the turn signal lever replaced on our 2005 Ford F150 Fx4 truck and it only took them a few hours to get to it fixed. As always the work and cost was very reasonable. And our truck isn't exactly easy to work on with a 6 inch lift kit! Thank you Mike and crew for taking good care of another one of our trucks.

Jeff took great care of us from beginning to end. He got us in quickly and gave us a fair estimate to fix our differential. He was very cooperative even though we were just a first time customer. He knew we needed our vehicle for vacation and therefore went above and beyond to get the parts in time. A few days after the repair he followed up to make sure everything is running smoothly. Highly recommend! We will come back for sure.

I took my SUV VW Toureg to the dealer to have my brakes done. They did an estimate on the work I needed done with parts and told me it would be over $1000 dollars to get it done for the front brakes only. So, I called around and remembered going to Protrans a few years ago and how great their services were. I called them up they gave me a free estimate, after work was done they changed me half of what the dealer was going to charge me. I strongly recommend Protrans for any and all of repairs or services you need for your vehicle.

I took my F250 truck to Pro Trans Automotive around 11:00 am because I suspected a transmission leak. They were honest about the how long the diagnostic and repair would take; depending on the diagnostic it could take 1-2 days or 4-5 days based on type of repair. I asked them to keep me updated on the diagnostic, type of repair, labor cost, and parts cost before they did any repairs to the truck. Pro Trans acted professional and kept good communication with me about my truck. My truck ended up having a fuel leak, Pro Trans Auto called me with an update and cost for the repair. They called me around 1:00 pm and had my truck ready for pick up at 4:00 pm. When I picked up the truck they ran the computer code diagnostic for my check engine light. They figured out the codes when I?ve been trying to figure out those codes for weeks. I?ll be using Pro Trans in the near future for my check engine light repair.

Customer service exceeded my expectations. They went above and beyond what I asked them to do. Work was done in a timely manner. They never tried to sell me something I did not need and were very clear on what was needed to correct my issues. I highly recommend this small business and I will be back for future repairs. We appreciate the great service. Thank you guys.

I bought a 2006 Dodge Charger Dayton and the oil light kept coming on. I went to the dealership and a few other repair shops to see if they could turn off the oil light and they could not. I thought that I had a lemon. I took my vehicle to Pro Trans Auto and they were able to fix the issue and I have been bringing my vehicle to them for every problem since then. The staff is very nice.
