Andy's shop is my #1 choice for anything transmission-related ever since he was the only mechanic who wasn't afraid of fixing our old RAV4 with 280k miles on it.
Andy is a knowledgeable, fair and thorough professional. He goes an extra mile in outlining all options and offering very practical advise on keeping not only transmission, but the entire vehicle in best conditions.
I can't imagine a better transmission shop than Andy's.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Alex J.San Francisco, CA2101702May 30, 2024
Super Honest, very quick service, nice staff! The owner told me when I *didn't* need something fixed which is incredibly helpful and also shows that he cares more about being honest and doing what's right vs selling you something that you don't need.
We were referred to Pacifica Transmission from my regular mechanic who has been in the business for 25 years. We were super happy to get a transmission service and also be told that our car *didn't* need a transmission service! Will come back here for all of our transmission needs.
Thank you very much for your help with our car!! Highly recommend for foreign and domestic service!!!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Tony C.South San Francisco, CA0174Jun 24, 2024
Brought in my GMC Sierra for a transmission service. Andy seems very honest and knowledgeable. Great work for a fair price. I will be back in the future.

He rebuild my car's automatic transmission and so far everything is great. He is trustworthy and does a great job. I can definitely agree that all of the earlier 5 star reviews are correct.

I had a vibration in my truck while accelerating, which I assumed had something to do with driveshaft and/or u joints. For some reason though, my mechanic suggested ruling out other causes before looking into those issues (still don't understand why he didn't just put it up on a lift to inspect). One potential cause would be a faulty torque converter, so I reached out to Andy at Pacifica Automatic Transmission. After going for a test drive and ruling out that potential problem, he volunteered to throw it up on the lift to take a look. As it turns out my suspicions were correct, and a faulty u joint was the culprit. Andy could have easily just sent me on my way, but went the extra mile to help me out when he didn't have to.
While I didn't have any actual transmission work done, it's obvious Andy is an honest guy and knows what he's talking about. I will definitely go back if my transmission needs any work (or even just routine fluid change) in the future.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Nydia R.Pacifica, CA172Feb 8, 2024
Took my RAV4 here after being recommended by a mechanic at Chevron on Linda Mar. Andy was very quick to provide me an estimate and appointment. Very happy with the service and price. Glad to have found another local business to help support.

How refreshing to find a shop where integrity still means something. Absolutely the best personal customer service, I was taken care of immediately. Clear honest explanations of what was probably causing my problem... and guess what? It was a quick fix, cost me $16, took less than 30 minutes in and out... What would have happened at a typical shop? I highly recommend Pacifica Transmission. And I was glad to hear they fix more than just transmissions. I had such a good initial experience, I'm almost looking forward to something else going wrong!! (Not really.) They're the best. Check em out.

thanks for you consideration .
May 12, 2011Previous reviewPersonal, honest, superior service. Andy has serviced the transmissions for my family (and friends, for that matter) for many years. I've never had a problem and always feel well taken care of. This level of customer service is rare these days. Highly recommended.

I'm giving Andy and this place 5 stars for honesty and integrity. He diagnosed the issue on my Jeep and once he found it was an electrical issue and not a transmission problem, he referred me to an expert, no charge for his time. In today's crazy world, this counts a ton for me. I'll be back when the transmission fails.
