I had to have my car towed to them to have a coolant leak fixed. They were very knowledgeable and good at explaining the problem and fixing it quickly would recommend again. read more

I haven't needed any transmission work done in quite a while so I didn't know what to expect price wise. I usually do my own filters and fluid. I limped my truck in, they diagnosed it quickly, quoted me a fair price, did the work quickly and for the price quoted. Very happy customer- highly recommend. read more

These guys really helped me out! My car was diagnosed at a different shop needing a transmission replacement. The car was jerk-stopping while driving with no check engine light. Since the car had 95K miles I did not want to put a used transmission in it since the car had low miles. For me it would either be a rebuild or a remanufactured trans. The remanufactured trans were not available so it narrowed it down to a rebuild option that the original diagnosing shop would not be able to do. I called Rich at Riverside Transmission Center and made an appointment to have the car checked out. I had it towed in at lunchtime on Friday and he would check it out the same day. He called at the end of Friday to let me know that they needed another hour on Monday morning to be sure. It was no problem for me. Rich called on that Monday and told me that he hooked up a computer to the OBDII port and noticed that the speed reading on the computer was different than the speedometer. He then gave me good news that the issue was likely a speed sensor and I might not have to change the transmission after all. I gave him the OK to change the speed sensor and worked fine after that. Thanks Rich for saving me a transmission replacement! Five stars! read more

Rich and Evan is the best father and son team I had the pleasure to do business with. First thing I choose to come to their shop because this shop has been here for so many years also when I use to go home and take the back streets I passed by every single time. Plus this guess are true locals to the area which I like that. I did call around before hand but was reminded by my wife of the shop and just from what I remember they been at this location for at least 20 years and that tells me a lot about them as a company. To be able to survive the 2020 year and still go strong. the knowledge to help you with what ever goals you have and get you there. I my self had to pick their brain a bit since I came with my 2000 Silverado with the 4Lslippy (4l60) transmission I wasn't to sure what to do for a trans that would get abused Offroad and they helped. The truck it self is a driving project but at least the tans is good to go. If you want good knowledge, service and someone to help steer you in the right direction this is the place for you. Also keep in mind there is one thing I always say you get what you pay for. Thanks Rich and Evan but also thanks to their team of guy in the shop. Keep up the great work. read more

Just had my 2002 f350 transmission rebuilt. They did a great job, stayed right on price quoted Anna's got the job done in 3 working days. So far so good, truck runs and shifts great! Rich was a super nice guy, answered all my questions and even gave me a tour of the shop. It was very clean Ana well organized which to me says a-lot about a business. read more

Took our 2013 Chevy Traverse in last Monday to have our transmission fixed. Rich was very helpful, professional, informative and respectful. We were surprised to get a call Wednesday morning that the car was done. Granted it was a slow time for them but still. Yes, it was expensive but we expected it. The car runs smoothly so far. They gave us a 2 year/2400 miles warranty. If we ever need work done again we'll go back. Thanks Rich and team! read more

Went to get an estimate, told me 10k WTH!!! Told me there we're only 2 transmissions in the continental United States c'mon now. Decided to call the dealership, told me it was just a piece not the whole thing. Total 3k, maybe look around to compare prices. Still trying to figure out why it being slow and the election had anything to do with my price. Things that make you hmmm. read more

I had a suspected differential leak and grinding sound. When my mechanic wondered about transmission, he recommended RTC to assess my transmission. Right off the bat, Rich gave me straight talk and friendly encouragement to bring in and check. Luckily, it wasn't the transmission, but a wheel bearing, which my mechanic had missed. Thinking I would now have to go back to my mechanic, since this was a transmission shop, Rich took the job on himself and replaced the wheel bearing and discovered the differential "leak" was actually from a loose coolant hose connection above the differential. Although my transmission was fine, I think had that been the issue, I would have been confident Rich and his team would have sufficiently fixed any transmission problem. I would highly recommend RTC. I come from a mechanic's family, and it's been my experience that it's hard to find a trustworthy transmission shop. Almost as hard as it is to find a good dentist. read more

These guys are awesome! They are very informative, honest and 100% know what they're doing! I brought my 05 Silverado after getting a few different answers of what was wrong with my truck from other mechanics I had look at it and was told my transfer case was fine by both. I brought it here to riverside transmission and they immediately told me what the problem was and had a new transfer case installed in just a few days with a really fair price! I'm super happy I went to them and I recommend them to anyone who needs driveline work! Awesome people here! read more

The guys at Riverside Transmission are AWESOME! I took my car in for a transmission service, and these guys were on it. They are the friendliest of folks and will keep your vehicle clean. You won't be disappointed if you choose to use them! read more

Needed transmission rebuilt on my lifted 2500hd but wanted it to handle more torque than original, did not know if Riverside Transmission handled custom requests, THEY DO!! Rich and I discussed my wants, and with his expert advice and experience, he proceeded to put my baby back on the road. I also had my front differential re-geared. Two weeks, all is well, thanks again Rich, great experience, highly recommended. read more

They were awesome!! Truly worth the money spent, so glad to have my car back!! Answered any and all questions I had. Will take all future business straight to them, and highly recommend that you do the same read more

Fixed my daughters transmission quickly and efficiently. I appreciated the detailed explanation of problem based on a simple conversation, and an inspection confirmed their suspicions. Replacing a transmission is pricy, but I am happy my daughter has a sturdy vehicle again. Happy with service and will continue to use as necessary. read more

Absolutely appalling experience here. I recently finished a 2 year build on a 1972 gmc k5 jimmy with an lsx454 . The shop who built my truck said they were going to get me a "built" 4l80e which my holley management system and motor call for and it would come from riverside transmission center. They used hp tuners to give me a basic drivability centered tune and recommended i go straight to a tuner to have it dialed in and dyno etc. so i did. The tuner did everything and all seemed fine until the end when they test drive it. He couldn't get it to start in first, only second. They took a closer look and realized i had a 4l80 not a 4l80e. They recommended i put the right one in. I left and on the way home my truck blew out 2 pistons and the transmission as well . Done. Later found out it was because of being overworked since the trans was wrong. I called holley to confirm and they told me the first gen 4l80 doesn't match up with my setup and wouldn't work at all. Super frustrating especially since the builder told Rich exactly what motor etc it was for. I called rich and he said they're "all the same" which is the first straight up lie. After having to get at least 5 people including holley to tell me it needs the later generation 4l80e, Rich finally got me sorted out with one. Or so i thought. It was the "e" and my truck did go into first so i thought he we must be good now. Oh by the way, rich refused to pay for the first replacement. The owner of the shop who built my truck had to pay for it which I appreciated very much that at least he made things right. I still had to pay 8k to rebuild my motor which was caused by the WRONG trans BUT i was happy someone helped. Back to the replacement... new tune once that was in so there goes another 800 on top of the first 800. Rich said we are good up to 800 hp on the new "built" proper 4l80e. From day 1 it slipped a tiny bit sobi babied the truck for 250 miles. Second trans blew grenaded while cruising at 65 mph barely touching the gas pedal. First rich said he needed to see it then told the shop once they pulled it that it wasnt his fault and he wouldn't comp or even discount a new or rebuilt one. So 4k for that one, 4k for the first one, 8k for the motor rebuild that was a brand new 22k lsx454 and now i have to go buy one or rebuild this POS they sold us. I wouldnt trust these con artists with a bone stock newer model car, they clearly lied about both units being built and don't even know theres a difference between certain models and generations of a 4l80. Absolute nightmare, their series of mistakes cost me and the shop close to 20k in unnecessary added coats and they refuse to make it right. Never, ever use this shop if you want a reliable vehicle!! read more

Over the years Riverside transmission has worked on all of my cars, my wife's cars, and all of my kids cars. From a Chevy Tahoe, Chevy 2500hd, Honda, BMW, and a handful of assorted Mercedes old and new. Its been so long I am probably forgetting others... Always, communication is great, diagnostics are well thought out, even when it requires some research. The cars come back working the right way. Rich, his son Evan, and the entire team will have my cars and trucks as long as they are in business and I have always encouraged others to use them and never once had someone disappointed. If you want someone to give it to you straight and then execute in a professional manner. this is your place. read more

Had transmission rebuilt for 3125.00 on my Ford 150 Lariat. After getting it back sounds like something making a noise it never made before. Take it to my mechanic find out transmission Mount and hose is leaking transmission fluid. Take it back and the the owners son tells me 150 dollars to replace just the hose and clamp it plus nothing is wrong with mount. Funny how they get over 3k for my tranny rebuild and now I have more problems. Worse place ever and not honest. Sad they take advantage of a lady thinking she knows nothing. read more

Nice guys. They found the problem and fixed it pretty quick. Thanks again. Im sure I will be back with other transmissions.

Just picked my truck up from Riverside transmission Center. Truck had transmission replaced in June. Went on trip for Veterans Day and noticed hard shifts and slow reverse engagement. Had truck towed in for warranty work. No questions asked Rich had transmission pulled and checked. Found bad torque converter, replaced converter and several friction pads parts fluids filters gaskets no charge. Truck was dropped on Wednesday mid day got truck back Friday afternoon. Excellent mechanical service and customer service would definitely recommend RTC for any needed repairs or service. 06 Ford F-350 Super Duty 6.o Thank You RIVERSIDE TRANSMISSION CENTER read more

I guess there is still Good Reliable Mechanics out there !!! read more

I bought a part here a while back ago and it was the wrong part that they ordered and they still charge me for it. It was not my problem that they ordered the wrong part. Also these people are racist against blacks. I would never come here again read more

I've always had a great experience! This time I thought I needed brakes. Tuned out to be an adjustment only at no charge.

Brought my Tahoe to get the transmission fixed and after loosing $300 from ANOTHER horrible mechanic, Riverside Transmission Center took care of my care in the BEST & FASTEST manner! You can tell they are honest people, work hard and truly love their jobs. Rich said hes been in business for 18 years and you can tell by his team he has and how the business is ran! The transmission obviously is a pricey part but it was one of the least price quotes we received from Moreno Valley all through Riverside. With a very generous warranty I'm pleased to have taken my truck to them and look forward to doing business again! Thanks again Rich and team - I felt very comfortable leaving my truck with you all. read more

After a month with having a transmission rebuild on my moms Pacifica things are running great!!

If you have problems with your Transmission go see them really good spot they got me a CVT Transmission for my Honda Accord sport I'm really happy good price don't go to the Dealer and they put me in my car right away read more

First Time Visited this place, I had my transmission serviced. They were great. They actually serviced the transmission by removing the pan, changing the filter and inspecting the transmission. Never again will I go to a jiffy type lube place. They cost is about the same but do a better quality service. Also a few months, after this service my rear seal blow out. They fixed it in one day. Fair Price to fix it. The owner is real honest guy. I would recommend this place if you got transmission problems. 2001 F150 Truck. read more

No I got the right shop and yes I have been there. Mechanics worry about owners race sons race car and don't pay no attention to the customer's car... extremely high price for poor workmanship Transmissions are a very precise job and they use caveman methods please don't waste your time find another transmission shop I think there's one two doors down read more

I cannot be more pleased! I hesitated taking my truck in until I did my research to find a transmission shop run honestly. (I've heard lots of scary stories) Thanks to fellow Yelpers, I chose this one. These guys run their shop with integrity, knowledge & experience. This was made clear by the work they did on my truck. They communicated throughout the process & my truck was ready same day! The price was fair & even less $$ than my brother paid for the tranny in his truck & mine included a new radiator! On top of that, their warranty is twice as long as all other shops I checked out. Don't get me wrong, I hope I never have a tranny go out in any of our cars but if one ever does, Riverside Transmission will be the place we go! read more

I had my clutch replaced on my TC and they replaced it with no B.S. they kept me informed during the whole process and made sure they had checked everything before I had received it. I never felt pressured for other repairs. Great shop, you can tell that they put the customer at the center of their business. read more

I think I just met the most honest person when it comes to fixing your vehicle. I will recommend this place to everyone for their honesty. I came in worried about what I was going to do, not only did he not up sell me he blessed me and did not charge me my diagnostic fee. read more

Took my car in they told me I needed parts some of which were not broken. They missed what the real problem was. I almost paid a boat load of money to get stuff done. Although they were in the general vicinity there would have been some work done that wasn't really the real problem. Took in elsewhere the mechanic showed me what the problem really was. Car is all fixed and didn't cost me $1400.00 in labor. read more

This place is the real deal. Rich and his team are professional in every aspect. In an industry plagued with dishonesty and schemes to get more money for services not needed, these guys rise above and set a whole new standard. From a transmission repair, to brakes or an exhaust leak these guys have you covered. I finally found a shop that does near perfect work that I can trust. Give these guys a shot. You will not regret it!!!! Thanks Rich! You earned a loyal customer in me!!!! read more

I've been coming here for several years now and have never had a problem. This is the place to bring your car for HONEST, reliable work. No reason to go elsewhere. read more

Brought my 2003 Honda Pilot after my tranny failed. It was down shifting hard and eventually would not shift out of first. Richard was great, and communicated with me through out the whole process. They are not cheapest and they are not the most expensive but they are the best. My Pilot feels like it did the first day I bought it, and it came with a 2 year 24000 miles warranty. I am a fan. read more

This is my third time here. I have an older Chevy pickup that's been here twice. Today's visit is with my Speed3. Know what I have learned? DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR TO A CAR DEALERSHIP. From my experience and in my opinion, they are crooks wearing a suit and tie. You have no idea who is working on your car, plus the guy that checks you in at the dealership is on commission. The more he/she brings in for the dealership, the more he/she puts in his pocket.RIVERSIDE TRANSMISSION is where you need to go. They have the experience and knowhow. Most of the mechanics have over 25 plus years experience. They don't have alot of overhead like a dealership has, and I strongly feel that Rich and his team are honest about their work. Which IS rare in the repair world. I highly recommend Riverside Transmission and plan on bringing all of.my vehicles here. read more

Initially I was skeptical with this shop after reading some of the reviews in which the price of the estimate rose suddenly after the repair was started. My vehicle needed a transmission and I was quoted a lower price than what I ended up paying by about $800 dollars. I understand that it is extremely hard to correctly quote something like a transmission until you open it up and see what you have inside, so I went ahead with the repair even after being notified of this price increase. I am very happy so far with the way my vehicle drives now that I have a fixed tranny. They are very nice and explained everything really well, which gave me the confidence that they know what they are doing and they do. Thanks Rick read more

This place fixed my Yukon fast and just like new ! Then I brought my other car and they fixed it they are great place cost money but they get the job dun thank you read more

The best I have ever seen! Took my cargo van in and 3 days later it was done and 1 of those days they were on vacation for New Year's! Super-fast, friendly and superlative work. They guarantee the transmission and the torque converter for 2 years as well. Good pricing. read more
