I can't say enough about the treatment I got here with Phillip. The Rotolo Chevrolet dealership in Fontana was trying to charge me $7,000 to repair my transmission after having it for 4 complete days. I called Phillip in total panic, he calmed me down ensured me he would take care of me and sent a tow truck to pick up my car and take it to his shop. Within 4 hours he had diagnosed my problem and I got my truck back 4 days later, which is as long as it took Rotolo to tell me anything. If you don't bring your car to this aamco you are doing yourself a HUGE disservice. I will never go anywhere else, a trusting mechanic is extremely hard to come by these days but you never need to worry when coming here. Thank you Phillip and your team for getting me my truck back and she sounds like the day I bought her! read more

Phillip the store manager has no respect for people of colored. My friend took his BMW to his shop because the check engine light came on. They called him saying the car was ready for pick up. Not even a block away the car completely stalls and starts smoking. We walk up to the shop and complain and immediately Phillip comes out with a police stick and starts yelling "let's see if your black lives matters here" then starts yelling racial slurs towards my friend all while his two Little girls were sitting in terror in the back seat. Don't take your car here look elsewhere read more

These people suck and pretend to know what they are doing along with a new owner that does know the difference from the engine to the transmission. My Trans PCU (Power-train Control Module) wasn't talking to the Transmission Solenoid Pack meaning the Transmission would not shift. After two hours and $220 bucks I left empty handed with no solution - They couldn't fix the issue. "Even worse they failed to put the parts back and left a roll of electrical tape near where the hood closes cause it to buckle. Don't spend your time or money there. You will get ripped off read more

I went in to my local AAMCO and Phillip ask me what was wrong with my car and he said bring it it and we will check it out. Phillip and Edwin bought my vehicle and less than 5 minutes later he ask me to come and check what was wrong and he said I was the radiator I recommend this location for your auto care needs and Edwin and Phillip are very friendly customer service go and ask for Phillip read more

I took my Porsche Cayenne to this Aamco dealer where I met Philip and was treated with some of the best customer service I've ever had. He explain things to me where I can understand them and handle things in a timely manner. I didn't feel pressured or rushed in making my decision. The mechanic Edward was also very courteous as he was knowledgeable about my vehicle.This is the only place that I will take any of my cars for repairs. They are TRULY trustworthy. read more

I highly recommend AAMCO Fontana. My transmission was leaking and needed new seals. After some trouble finding the correct sizes from the vendors Phillip did everything possible to get the right parts needed and get me back on the road again. Phillip was very professional and delivered excellent customer service. They are very honest here and will do everything in their power to save you some money as well. Thanks again Phillip!! read more

We brought my car in for transmission rebuild. Great service! Everyone I spoke with was knowledgeable, polite and friendly. My car is shifting gears with ease! Thanks to Phillip and his team at AAMCO! read more

Iam greatful for my friend Phillip, Aamco really helped me out on my 2014 Nissan Pathfinder

When my car started making a funky noise I knew it wouldn't be good. My car is fairly new with only 54K miles. Needless to say my turbo went out. A $2,000 part that Phillip at aamco went through the ringer to get covered for me by my warranty. Phillip was up front and honest from the beginning. They diagnosed my car for free and told me exactly what was going on throughout the entire process. His customer service skills are impeccable and his business professionalism is outstanding. Eddie his mechanic is extremely knowledgeable and was available to answer any and all questions. I will be taking my car there for any future issues. My husband will now be taking his business their as well. We can't say ENOUGH good things about Phillip, Eddie and Fontana aamco! Thanks guys!!!! read more

I'm sorry it has taken me so long to write this review but I'm super busy with my 3 month old. Thanks to Billy at AAMCO we have a running car to get around in. My car went from working great to completely frozen overnight and as a new mom I was stressed and frustrated!!! I called AAMCO and spoke with Billy and he made it effortless for me to get my car in and repaired. He called me with the status of my car as is was being repaired. When he quoted the initial price he made me aware that there may be additional charges once the car was taken apart and before he did any additional work he called and spoke it over with me. From start to finish my car was ready in 2 days and only $30 over the initial quote (which I agreed to before he added the charge). My car is older '96 and I pray that I don't have to get any more major work done in the near future but I won't hesitate to take it back to AAMCO. Thank you Billy. read more

Excellent customer service! Came here to change air and cabin filters. Phil didn't feel right charging me for something so simple and changed out for FREE!! Also had transmission serviced and my car runs AMAZING. I will be taking my other car for repairs today! Phil is a true professional. Hard to find a mechanic you can TRUST. Highly recommend coming here for all your vehicle repair needs. read more

It's hard to find a mechanic you can trust and I've searched for years. The way Phillip runs his business and the customer service he provides is outstanding! AAAMCO is now my go to for all my automobile repairs from the oldest to the newest. Keep up the excellent service!!!!! read more

Had to go get my tranny checked out and serviced over the weekend, definitely one of the best mechanic experiences I've ever had. Phillip the CS Manager was super helpful along with the rest of the staff got me taken care of and outta there quickly. No bs, straight to the point, didn't feel like they tried to cheat me out of any money either which is a big issue I have with most mechanics. Definitely coming back again if I need any major work done! read more

I took my 2013 Nissan Altima in for a transmission check, due to reoccurring problems I have been having with it. I was able to meet Philip, the customer service manager and he was awesome! He gave me his own personal story about the hassles he has had dealing with dealerships and gave me his honest opinion on what I should do next for my car. He doesn't try to sugarcoat anything and tells you what's wrong with your car with complete honesty. You don't leave this location feeling scammed and they don't make you feel like your stupid for not knowing about cars. Overall amazing service and I will be coming back here for all of my car repairs! read more

I am very disappointed in my experience with Amco. I took my car in for a simple solenoid change and they added on work that didn't need to be done and charged me an extra $139 for doing it. Phillip said they did a transmission flush which I didn't need or ask for. I wish I could trust in the people that I take my car to be fair and honest! That's not the case with this shop. Be careful. read more

Great customer service and great work done on my Honda. Phillip was very professional and take good car of me and my honda. Great price and great work!!!! Will recommend to others to bring there work here !! read more

Don't take your car there they will charge you a arm and a leg also they will tell you they will fix the issue of your car and it will turn out to be not it,, they just want your money , I took my car in for free transmission check and they said they will charge me 1400 to fix the issue I hesitated and told the manager I will think about it . I took it to the car dealer instead and it only cost me 300 to repair . What a rip off AAMCO shame on you. I could report you to BBB. read more

I would rank them a zero if I could. My truck had a shutter in the steering wheel. Came in for service and I got my rear differential replaced. I told them I was moving across country and wanted to make sure my vehicle was good to go. I made it 1300 of the 1500 miles before I broke down in the middle of nowhere. Long story short I had to replace the transmission at 115k in a Tacoma. The mechanic said whoever put on the rear differential only hand tighten it and it basically tore it up and wrecked the transmission in the process. Transmission fluid was still clean. AAMCO refuses responsibility. Wouldn't admit fault or help with replacement. Don't use this garbage company. read more

We brought our car here and spent $200 for a transmission service. We dropped off the car at 7am and didn't hear back from them until around 2 when they said that they were waiting for some transmission fluid to be delivered to them for our Jeep Patriot. We found this a bit weird considering that we had scheduled an appointment in advance and gave them the make and model of our car in order for them to have the supplies necessary. We figured it was an honest mistake so we didn't make a big deal out of it. From then on we didn't hear anything from them at all so we started driving to their shop around 4:45 because we knew they were closing at 5pm. Half way there, (around 4:55) they called us to tell us that the fluid had still not arrived and that they would need to keep our car overnight. Because of that, my fiance needed to reschedule his morning clients last minute. (They weren't too happy about that). The next day they did the work but when we went to pick up the car, they told my fiance that there was a part in the car that was broken, the transmission filler tube. (Supposedly we brought it in that way). This made the car spill expensive transmission oil all over for the next couple of days. Every time we got into the car, it wreaked of oil. This overbearing smell was NOT something that we would miss before bringing in the car to AAMCO to get worked on. My fiance took it to the Jeep dealer to buy the new part and we had the dealer take a look at his car while we were there. They told us that there was absolutely no way that the transmission filler tube could have been broken on its own through wear and tear and that AAMCO was responsible for the damage. We ended up buying the parts, engine cleaner, transmission oil, and some air fresheners (which cost us close to $100) and taking it home to work on it. Before we started taking everything apart, we decided to give AAMCO a call and see if they would help us put the part in and if they would cover the cost of the damage they did. Doc refused to take responsibility for the damage done to our car and refused to cover any of the cost of the materials. It took us over 4 hours to get to the part and replace it (which goes to show that this part was not easily accessible and could not have been broken by us just driving the car). We have since called their corporate office and filed a claim against AAMCO. Had AAMCO taken responsibility for the damage to our car and corrected their mistake, this post would not be necessary. However, the fact is that they damaged our car, took no responsibility for it, and were less than helpful (if not demeaning) when we asked them for assistance in fixing their mistake. WARNING TO ALL POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS: DO NOT BRING YOUR CAR TO THIS AAMCO!!!!!!! They do not care about their customers, they just want your money. No wonder why they only have 3 stars. read more

They might do good work, but there's no way I would ever know. I was over 10 miles away working during my day and called and asked if they would do an oil change they told me yes .I drove all the way in and then once I got there they told me it would be more than an hour wait just to get the car on a rack, then it would be another 30 to 45 minutes for the oil change. I have all kinds of work to do during the day and it would've been nice for them to tell me that over the phone instead of me driving 10 miles plus to come get an oil change done and then only tell me once I show up but now I have to find a new place to get it done and waste even more time in my day. read more

I would recommend this aamco to all of my family and friends. Philip was absolutely amazing! I took my GMC in to get looked at, and the guys at aamco helped me solve my issue. They didn't take advantage of my time or my $$$!!! Fabulous customer service. read more

I had a really great experience here. Actually, great is an understatement. It was wonderful. Phillip is the one who took care of me and he did everything in his power to help me. I took my car here because it was making a funny sound. I would definitely recommend this AAMCO, for their customer service and all around helpfulness. It's not just for transmissions, but for any auto assistance! Thank you Phillip! read more

Just picked up my car today after Aamco Transmission had it for a week. Billy was easy to work with and was a lot of help. My car is running great after they rebuilt my transmission (so far so good ). Recommend this shop. read more

Doc is one awesome owner of AAMCO. He is truthful and will not do any work on your car unless it is needed. The work they do there is excellent. We have had both of our cars serviced there. We have finally found our go-to mechanic. Thank you Doc. read more

Perfect. Good job on my transmission and my starter. Customer service was great. I strongly recommend this location to everyone who wants to experience good work and a quick return. read more

Phillip is the most Rude and unprofessional person i have ever worked with. I went in to get an engine swapped under my third party warranty. They swapped the engine out but in doing so THEY REVERSES THE INPUT AND OUTPUT SPEED SENSORS. They tried to get me to rebuild my transmission for 3000 dollars. I had my car towed to a different shop where they found the issue of the speed sensors and told me my transmission never needed any work at all! This was found only after the new mechanic tried to tune everything up to see if any sensors ect were the issue. Unfortunately that cost me 1700$ that i never needed to spend. When i called the shop to talk to them about it, Phillip was very rude. Putting all the blame on me and saying my warranty company was coming after for for fraud (which was a lie) he refused to talk to and Called me a LITTLE GIRL and hung up. Obviously they knew they messed up and did not want to admit it. DO NOT GET WORK DONE HERE. THEY WILL TRY AND DRAIN YOU OF ALL YOUR MONEY AND TREAT YOU LIKE SH*T! read more

Billy and the guys took care of me. I live in Fullerton and was on my way to work at 530am on a Wednesday when my transmission imploded. I had to wait 'til any shop in the area opened at 8, but i had it towed to Aamco when they opened. I was told 3-4 hour wait time for a diagnosis, which was spot on. Unfortunately with me being so far from home, i had to hang out and wait there all day, which is kind of a pain since there is no chairs or anything in the office. Right at the 4 hour mark i was informed that, indeed, my transmission was absolute toast. I called several places closer to my neighborhood, and they all gave similar quotes for the transmission rebuild, but they gave 5-7 day turnarounds. Because this is my work truck, i needed it ASAP. Billy gave me a 2 day turnaround estimate, which put me picking the truck up Friday. When i decided to have the shop do the rebuild on my transmission, billy offered me a rental car to make my life a lot easier, to which I obliged. He worked some magic and got me a good deal on a car that would handle my tools and work stuff for a couple days. I wound up having to pick it up on saturday, not friday, but this was still less time than my "home" shops. I also had them do an oil change and rotate the tires, as they were due at the same time. For both those and a full Transmission rebuild on an F250 v10, it came out to $3000. (i had to pick up the oil from the O'Reillys up the street, which i kind of liked so i knew what oil was going in and the filter). The 40 mile drive back to the OC was nice and easy and the transmission felt great. My truck was already filthy since i pretty much live out of it, but the seats were clean and the guys took care of it. I would recommend this shop to anyone who needs engine/transmission work done, but don't expect to be in and out quickly. They do quality work, which takes time. Its a smaller shop and they seem to stay pretty busy. All-in-all, good shop, good guys. Really helped me out in a pinch **Now, this is the only reason i am giving 4 stars and not 5: i did not receive a call letting me know that the truck was not going to be ready on friday and it would be saturday instead. I understand, as i work in the service industry as well, and a simple phone call would have gone a long way (for this to be the only knock is not bad for most shops as you may know). read more

Very pleased with my experience working with Phillip at the Fontana AAMCO. Made an appointment for a transmission service on a 2005 Chevy Silverado Hybrid to follow up on a local dealer quote for transmission repair. The service process was explained thoroughly before beginning work. I felt educated enough to make informed decisions about proceeding with this vehicle. Technician pulled the codes. Philip printed out the codes and the process /order by which they are cleared. One extra code came up along with the two the dealer told me about. Could have potentially thrown away $2100 on the repairs at the dealer and still had a problem with the third code which related to the hybrid recharging system in the transmission. The short of it is that the technician, Eddie, said the transmission service at this time is not recommended. All this help and zero bill at the end of it all. Taking my work van into today for a transmission service. Its nice to have a crew looking out for your best interest and not their bottom line. read more

Phillip is an amazing guy help me out with all my needs. My car was done when he said it would be car is running like a champ

My car was definitely a priority and everyone was very hospitable! Phillip is the really greatest, he made sure my experience was as simple as possible!! Make sure to keep him around!!! read more

We have a 2011 Nissan Altima, our transmission was acting up, the dealer quoted $2500 for the transmission (part only) not including labor, oils/fluids, etc (estimated $4500 total). Our friends told us to try Aamco. We came to Aamco pretty distraught and worried, questioning if we'd even be able to fix our car, and Philip was great from the beginning. He informed us they'd check it out for free, no worries. They checked it right away and informed us of the codes/misfires and explained what they meant and what our options were. We were able to get a transmission with labor/oils/fluids for almost $1000 cheaper than the dealer, with warranty and with finance options available to us. Our car is back to normal and we are so grateful. Philip and the Aamco team were great, we definitely recommend their service! read more

When I call there, I talked to David and he was really nice and wanted to help me. I was having problems with my transmission and I told him what I thought it could be and he said he would look at it but he said it sounds like what I thought it was. sure enough it was the problem. After he looked at it I called the next day and talked to Phillip and he was nice as while and he help me with the cost and he was being very honest and nice. I work as a warranty admin. For a dealership so I do know customer service and vehicle repair and they took care of me like I do for my customers. I would have anyone go here that needs transmission repair. Thank you to both David and Phillip for all their help. Also, if my father was around he would thank you guys to taking care of his truck and now mine. And now I can have memories with my kids with this truck and purchase a 5th wheel knowing you guys are there for me. Thank you so much read more

Great and fast service, I took In my box truck and they did a whole overhaul on the transmission, In only 3 days. I couldn't of asked for better service, if you need your transmission fix speak to Phill this guy is awesome, he gave me a great deal along with 18 month warranty. I would definitely recommend this Aamco to everyone. read more

I must say that this branch of AAMCO is one of the better auto mechanics that I have had the pleasure of dealing with. I was bringing my vehicles to another auto company for service, we were comming in with the initial problem and were leaving with many different problems, no trust as well as very rude personel. I started working with this AAMCO Fontana location and I was impressed with the honesty and professionalism that I recieved from this company. On a few different occasions they checked out issues that I was having and took care of them without even charging me. I would highly recommend this company to anyone who needs repairs or service to their vehicle. Aron Urban read more

Was stranded in Southern California after a business trip, visited the AAMCO in Fontana. After a free check the manager Josh informed me that only a small repair was needed, he had the car back on the road in no time at all. Thanks guys you have a customer for life! Sorry it took me so long to post this review!!!!!!! read more

I went into AAMCO with my check engine light on. I thought it was a transmission problem. Not only did they check it out. They fixed it. Turns out it was a plug that was not plugged in. These are honesty. Reliable. Trustworthy people. Will come back again, IF I need to. read more

phil is awsome very helpful and concerned about his customers i would definitely recommend taking your car here

Dropped off my F350 work truck with a problem of the transmission not staying fully locked especially in overdrive. Phil and his staff did a great job diagnosing and bulletproofing the transmission, very pleased !!! Special thanks to Eddie !! This guy is a genius !! Excellent technician !! 5 star service all the way !!! I'll never take my vehicles anywhere else !! read more

Horrible experience here. My wife felt her car was running rough and wanted it looked at. Of course the mechanic tells us a plethora of problems. Low and behold we end up paying over $650. And once we get the car back it is running far worse. It clicks and runs rougher than ever. Is there any honest mechanics around here? read more

***BEAWARE***DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR FOR ANY SERVICE at AAMCO in Fontana !!! I took my car to be looked at because it was at times not shifting properly. I informed Doc (no longer with AAMCO and was never the owner) of the problem I was having and that I recently had all the fluids replaced. The cost for to look at the car and tell me what is wrong with was $80.00. The following day, I picked up my car and Doc informed me the transmission was bad and it would cost approximately $2, 200.00 to rebuild. I took my car for further estimates and all were free of charge. All transmision mechanics confirmed there is nothing wrong with the transmission and it may be a transmission ECU or an electrical problem. I took a chance and ordered the transmission ECU online, the cost was $145.00 and the car works perfect. There was nothing wrong with the transmission as I previously thought with AAMCO's estimate. I called Doc and he said he will talk to the owner about a full refund, weeks went by and when I would call and ask for a status, Doc would say Craig is out of town or unavailable. Shortly after when I called for a follow up Doc was no longer working with AAMCO. I continuously called Craig with no response and I called AAMCO HQ in PA to discuss my concern a few minutes later I immediately received a call from Craig/owner and all he was willing to do was offer $80.00 worth of service. Due to their dishonestly and lack of trust I refuse to take my car there for any service. I only wanted a full refund for the misdiagnosis and Craig refused to refund the $80.00. NOT A GOOD PLACE FOR BUSINESS and UNTRUSTWORTHY! read more
