I'm updating my review because I was contacted by Robert, the owner, who kindly let me know that he understood my position and concerns. He was genuinely concerned about my negative experience and went above and beyond to make things right. That says an extraordinary amount about the pride he takes in his business and shows that he is an honest businessman who stands behind his work and customers. While the original situation was frustrating, I truly appreciate the effort and professionalism shown in resolving the matter. I believe it's important to update reviews when a business makes an effort to correct a problem, and in this case they absolutely followed through in the end. Thank you for doing the right thing and standing behind your customer. read more

I went in to get my transmission looked at and he was very honest and upfront with me about it. Easily could have nickel and dimed me but he didn't even charge me for the hour they spent working on it trying to figure out what's wrong. I would highly recommend them. read more

Our transmission went out on our 2015 Winnebago Motorhome. How lucky we were to find Robert and his crew. Not only were the nicest guys you'll meet, they were totally professional and you could tell they really cared about what they did. He ordered a transmission and it showed up on Friday afternoon and he promised before they closed we would be on the road and sure enough we were! Not only that, he was very fair in his pricing, as well. We are based up in San Jose, and he could've easily taken advantage of us, which he did not. Thank goodness for people like Robert and the guys that work for him. I would highly recommend Robert and his shop. read more

My mechanic pointed me to this shop. TJ and Rob are super straightforward and helpful; they took the time to explain what's going on with my 2003 Honda Odyssey, and gave me clear options for fixing the issue. Added bonus: The price was more than fair. I'll be back with any future transmission issues! read more

These folks were so pleasant with which to work. This was our second estimate for a 2015 Suburu Forester, and they were able to fix it same day, and we saved over $1,000 compared to a competitor in San Luis Obispo. TJ and Robert are honest, straightforward service people. It's no wonder they have a five star rating. read more

Robert is the owner and is as nice a guy as you would ever want to meet... and at the same time is very conscientious of every aspect of his service to a customer. Right from the very first phone call into the place I was impressed. When I got there I was continually impressed he took the vehicle for a test drive he hooked it up to an analyzing meter and he gave me the straight and honest story as to what was happening based on his years of knowledge and his honesty. I worked in a transmission shop out east so i am not clueless. I am also picky about proper service and integrity.. at no time did any of my spider senses go off and think I was being misled.. not for one second. I enjoyed my experience with Roberts business so much that I almost wish I needed to rebuild because I know it would've been done at the right price and done correctly and completely. I'm only sad to know that I'm gonna be on the East Coast again and he's on the West Coast. all the other places I saw on the net recommended by my Google maps I am so glad I just out of the blue picked this one because it was the only one that said rebuild and Transmission in the name. Robert is focused solely on transmissions and does not attempt to do other aspects. This is a blessing in disguise because you know he focuses and he really knows the finer details of the business. he outlined everything and charged accordingly no surprises in the bill. I was stuck between a rock and a hard place as I was at the mercy of whatever was told to me. Being fearful that I'm about to cross the United States across vast desert lake area and the fear of breaking down out in 120° for all day or longer before somebody could get to me is very concerning. I truly feel I lucked out with Robert and all automatic transmission rebuild on Pato Road in San Luis Obispo California.. read more

When we found out that our transmission was dying, we were so stressed and didn't know where to turn. I called every transmission place in the county and it was going to be a long wait to get the car even looked at, but the price was all of our savings! I am so very grateful that I called All Automatic! TJ is the most honest and kind person. When you have one vehicle and that vehicle is out of commission you can be at your wit's end and you just want the truth and the price. TJ doesn't hold any of it back. He's honest and fair. The price for the transmission rebuild was far less than anywhere around. Plus, we got in within a week. Not only did we feel good about his expertise in transmission repair, but what he quoted us wasn't what we ended up paying. It was $300 less. That's what is so refreshing about All Automatic. They do business well and give more good news than bad. Just found out they do breaks, gonna ask if they do oil changes too because we just love the transparency and realness. Don't want to go anywhere else! Lastly, we especially loved TJ's grocery store wave philosophy too - ask him about it, it's funny! read more

TJ and the crew are wonderful! They were able to diagnose the transmission issue plus one other concern in about 30 minutes. They were also able to beat Villa's price by $6,000. I definitely recommend going straight to them if you're having transmission issues! read more

This is one of the most honest shops around SLO county. I appreciated the quick and efficient service and the time taken to explain everything in detail. They really care about their customers. I would definitely recommend!! read more

Just want to share how I found my one, great transmission shop. For one, there are not many of these shops around, but I located All-Automatic and they took great care of me. Just straightforward, reasonable, skilled repair people and looking to help. It's how customers-for-life are created. read more

My transmission rebuild came in way under estimate and faster than promised. Appreciated the explanations of the problem and the process, as well as the kindness. read more

Knowledgeable, reasonable priced, Owner of shop is Robert he does a great Job! They are located in San Luis Obispo off Prado road. By the Drive Inn read more

Brought my car in fully expecting them to tell me I needed the transmission replaced. Ended up with a $90 bill and a gentle scolding from Rob on the importance of vehicle maintenance. :) Very honest and I highly recommend. read more

Highly recommend. Took my truck to several shops, all who wanted to charge me thousands to rebuild. All automatic transmission fixed what was needed, avoiding the rebuild, and it works perfectly. Saved me 1000 dollars. I should add that they were very fast as well. Very honest read more

This place is great. They do great work and the price can't be beat. I would recommend to anyone. They took great care of my car and they were so fast!!! read more

I've been going here for years. They've always treated me well. Excellent service and honest. Even delivered my truck to me when I couldn't pick it up myself. read more

Very friendly, efficient, and a good value. The guys were great at communicating & very friendly. First class. Ty

Great service by young pros who know what they're doing. You can find them on Prado Rd. near the freeway. My advice is to have your transmission serviced every 60,000 miles. You can trust. Recommended. read more

Robert and Tim provide friendly and outstanding customer service. Please don't hesitate to contact them. They are helpful and good people. It is rare but most welcome to find people who genuinely sympathize and want to help without prioritizing nickel and diming. We are not from SLO but found ourselves in a transmission nightmare while in SLO and this shop was top notch in its helpfulness and service. read more

Guy did an amazing job putting my mind at ease with a leak on my truck. Glad to find an honest and intelligent technician. You make me proud to be a vereran read more

Robert and his mechanics are the only people I take my car to. They are fair and honest. I have referred many people to them! I love you guys J Aulbach read more

Grateful I found this place as I wanted a shop that specialized in transmissions. Had an issue with my car clunking into gear and was worried it needed a new transmission after 206,000 miles. Fortunately it turned out to only be a sensor that needed changing, literally saved thousands of dollars. Honest, knowledgeable people here. read more

This business was great! I was referred to them & they got my car in quickly and got back to me quickly about the issue. Turns out my transmission is fine, it was the computer module that wasn't working, and though they couldn't fix it they refused to charge me for the scan & checking into it! It is nice to see an honest business, I recommend this company! read more

Great people. They got my transmission done quickly! I was in a major bind and they really hooked me up. If I have any more transmission problems with other vehicles I will without a doubt go here. Down to earth dudes that understand real life and getting it done. They gave me options and they also gave me realistic benefits of each way to get the job done. It was nice to talk to someone that wanted to help me not just help me out of my money. read more

Worked with Robert on my 2002 Camaro. These guys really know their stuff. I frequent an enthusiast website and talked to many knowledgeable people about what types of problems a Camaro transmission normally has and what parts are best to put together a long lasting transmission. When I went in to their shop, literally every single thing I had researched about they brought up with no BS. They ordered parts for my car the day I dropped it off and within two days my car was ready. This transmission feels rock solid, shifts great, and makes my Camaro a lot more fun to drive than the stock transmission. I'll definitely bring my other vehicles here if I ever have problems in the future. read more

Robert and his crew are very thorough and really helped me out. My computer was sending out a message about a faulty solenoid. They tested all of the solenoids and they were fine. They even had the computer re-flashed. I was very pleased and would definitely go to them again. read more

Have been extremely impressed with their expertise and service on multiple jobs. I highly recommend this shop.

Unfortunately the week before Christmas the transmission completely went out on our car. We talked to several shops and not only did we get the best price from Robert, he was also the only one who offered a warranty longer than 90 days on their work. The customer service from everyone we dealt with was also superior to any other shop. They were honest, up front, and there were no surprises, like you often get from other auto mechanic shops. I highly recommend this shop if you need any transmission work done. Thank you for everything! read more

Recommended by another auto repair shop. Walked in to busy transmission speak with several customers - friendly, and enthusiastic. Then my turn, I explained my transmission dilemma, then recommendations. After repairs completed I gave the old truck a test drive. FIXED-I'm happy. They did a great job at a fair price. Thanks read more

This place is amazing, while on vacation the transmission goes out on our car, Robert helped out with finding out if it was still under warranty and getting the car towed back to Los Angeles. Recommend this place. read more

These folks are very friendly and knowledgeable! They went out of their way to diagnose my auto problem and referred me to the right repair shop. They never charged me for the analysis after spending a couple hours checking out my truck. Will use this shop for any further transmission needs. Honest and professional! Will refer anyone I meet who needs transmission repairs. read more

These guys are the bomb! Transmission went out on the truck, they had it fixed and back in service the next day! And for a price that cant be beat!!!! Thanks Robert, Jackie and Rob!!!! read more

Rob was very helpful and took away my stress over the phone. Rob even said he will make it as easy as possible so were not paying an arm and a leg for something simple. read more

I can't say enough good things about this business. Rob was so helpful and took the time to explain the issues with the transmission and to carefully talk me through the decision-making process about whether to go forward with the repair. I'm happy to say that everything went very well and the car is doing great! I would recommend this shop to anyone and am very grateful for the excellent service they provided. read more

I just got my 2001 Accord transmission rebuilt by the crew at All Automatic Transmission. I really appreciate how they took the time to educate me on what my transmission needed and how I can take care of it in the future. Also, the cost to rebuild ended up several hundreds less than they estimated. Can't beat that! read more

Robert and his crew displayed incredible professionalism and integrity in assisting us in rebuilding the transmission in our sons van. The customer service we received was above and beyond our expectations. We really appreciated their positive attitude and all their efforts to make sure we were satisfied with their work. The icing on the cake was their pricing was the BEST in town!!! We highly recommend All Automatic Transmission Rebuild and would trust no-one else for all our transmission needs. We love you guys!!! read more

My van was losing power and making terrible popping sounds. I took it to Dave's Automotive in SLO and while they were able to fix part of the problem, the major issue was the transmission. Dave referred me to Robert at All Automotive Transmission. Another highly rated mechanic in AG also referred me to Robert. Robert is the most ethical and honest person I've had the pleasure of working with. His integrity is to be applauded, his work is excellent, and he stands by it. read more
