I recently purchased a 2002 GMC Sierra 3500 4x4 Dually with a Duramax Allison combo. After testing the truck as I pulled my 10k travel trailer up hill grade on I-80 towards Vallejo I was impressed how it maintained 65mph on cruise control up the hill. Afterwards headed back my service engine soon light appeared. The codes involved torque converter/ transmission codes. I did my research and determined to take it to California Transmissions due to the previous owners notes located in the glove box. I was greatly impressed with the quality and most of all honesty and fair pricing to get my truck repaired. Thanks again Joe for the fine work as I strongly recommend your shop!

Just had my GMC Sierra transmission 6L80 replaced here by Joe and his team. I highly recommend them for service needs, as they are friendly, knowledgeable, and honest. I found them based on reading other reviews…and the previous customers were correct! Truck is smooth as butter now and I am happy I chose them to do the job! Very fair pricing too.

Took my car in for an oil change at a different location where they found issues with my transmission and recommended me to this shop. My father-in-law works at Ford and vetted California Transmissions, so I felt secure in coming. They were very honest and thorough with explaining everything they were seeing and doing to my car to me, and they even spoke to my father-in-law over the phone when I wanted to cross-check all the information I was receiving. As a young woman, this was major to me because I've heard so many horror stories of workshop men taking advantage of women who don't know enough about cars, charging and up-charging for services that are unnecessary. These guys are totally trustworthy and earnest, the value in their integrity is relieving. I will definitely be coming back to them should I need more services done. Highly, highly recommended.

Had an issue with transmission not reporting gear or drive status. Limped vehicle home and was unable to start again due to lack of feedback. Called CA Transmission of Orangevale on recommendation from Midas. Called Joe and immediately got an indication of what the issue might be with a preliminary price.Had the vehicle towed to Joe's shop and had a diagnosis the same day with work completed all in one day. Price was as stated, schedule was quicker than expected.Highly recommend, will return for further work that may be required in future.

We had a wonderful experience with this Company! They were able to diagnose the problem with my car within 24 hours . And would have been able to received the necessary part within days and would have had us back on the road in under a week. They answered their phone and communicated very well with us. Their prices were very fair. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Would definitely recommend! Pam was my first point of contact and was very knowledgeable and helpful! I was at a loss as to what to do with my car and she gave me multiple options and did all of the research for me to ensure that I got the best price and fix for my vehicle. Joe was amazing as well, was both kind and professional. I had to have my transmission completely taken out and have a new one put in and my car was given back to me in 2 days running like new! Throughout the entire process, Pam and Joe answered all of my questions and addressed any concerns I had and offered continued follow-up. I will definitely utilize again if necessary and would recommend California transmission of Orangeville!

I had brought in my truck to get the transmission fluid serviced. I called on Friday to see if I could bring it in the following Monday and confirmed my appointment with them. Dropped it off in the morning and they let me know the parts should be in that morning and would probably have it back around the afternoon. 12pm got a call and everything was ready to go. They were nice enough to document my check engine light codes during the service as well.I will definitely be coming back here for future service as they were polite, professional and honest with the expectations. Always happy to be able to support local Orangevale businesses whenever I can.
