Leon’s Transmission Services

The whole team is really friendly and helpful. Dustin in particular was assisting me with my truck. I really liked that he had good communication, could logically and clearly explain what was happening and what was to be expected to get my truck back up and running again. He also talked me through the questions I had and we decided based on the age of my car combined with it’s mileage to take a proactive route to remedy my transmission concerns. Fair pricing compared to my research and no unnecessary up selling pressure, making for a very comfortable environment. Loyal customer made, keep up the good work!

My 1998 Saturn was leaking transmission fluid and I’m thinking…“this is the end” — I’ll need a new transmission and I’ll have to do it because I can’t afford another car. Well, I took it in and Steve called me an hour later and said «the filter is just leaking… I can tighten it and forget it or do a transmission service because your fluid is brownish.» I know I haven’t had a flush done since 2008 so I said «do the service». Because he was so honest about it I had no qualms about having the transmission service done. Now I don’t have to worry about leaking fluid all over this valley! I won’t go anywhere else!

I had to being my Dodge Charger here 2 years ago to have the transmission looked at. It failed on me. I called in advance and was told I could being in my car asap and have it looked at for free. It turned out that I had a leak. The customer service is outstanding here and they fixed my transmission very quickly. I didn’t have any problems after that before selling my vehicle. I highly recommend this shop to anyone thay thinks something might be going on with their transmission.

These guys are great. I took my 2004 Toyota Matrix to them to completely repair the transmission. They did a great job and communicated with my dad and I through the entire process. I highly recommend this place. The guys are friendly and do an amazing job.

HONEST people! Initially quoted me for my Honda Accord having transmission issues not shifting under $ 300. After further diagnostic, turned out to be an electrical issue. Price came down to $ 125 for diagnostic. Will definitely come back for any transmission problems in the future.

I highly recommend Leon’s on Solidad.
I brought my car in for a transmission service and they quoted me a reasonable price. As it turned out, the fluids were cheaper than what was estimated and they charged me less. Who would have known any different had they had charged the original amount.
Moreover, about a year ago, I brought in my other car because I thought the transmission was making noise. One of there tech’s listened to the sound, for free, and told me it was something else and didn’t need service. He could have easily told me they need to put it up and take a look «to be sure» and charged me the bench charge but they didn’t. They sent me to anther mechanic who was able to help.
They have earned my trust!
Thanks guys!

I brought my car into Leon’s this morning because my transmission was leaking. They are one of most badass mechanics around and they fixed my transmission within a few hours and it barely cost anything. I am extremely satisfied with the work they did and will be referring everyone I know to them. Dustin, you’re the man. Thank you so much.

It was a beautiful Friday and I needed to get my truck transmission serviced before my 4 hour trip THAT morning. Calling around and frankly getting laughed at for service within that hour or that day seemed impossible. Leon’s said they have one hoist open but was not sure if they had the filter for my truck. Headed to Dodge picked up parts and was at Leon’s by 9 AM. WOW was I impressed ! ! They scanned my truck for any DTC’s (check engine light) then road tested and up on the hoist it went. While at the dodge dealer, Dodge alerted me of the transfer case needing service also, So I bought the fluid. Leon’s said NO problem and with a minimal charge that fluid also changed. 1 ¾ hour later it was off the rack and out for another test run, once back a final fluid check and down the road I went .
Thank you Leon’s ! ! ! Great Job ! ! Great professionalism ! !
I’ll be back soon ! !

I took my car to this ppl because somebody recommended me. I went there and they were super nice, I left my car there for 4 hours and they did not knew what was wrong with my car even I told them what was wrong.
I took my car there on the next day and they told me it was just $ 85,99 to fix the problem, after that the guy went to a run with the car and told me that everything was perfect…2 days later I went to the freeway and the car was the same shit, I went there again and I showed the mechanic what was wrong… after that they told me that I needed to pay $ 800,00 just to open the transmission and it could coast me at least $ 1800. I laugh on their faces and I left there to never come back, they try to steal people even they dont know what is the problem they will find a way to get some money from you. Why they did not tell me before? Why did they say that was fixed?
Because they knew I wouldn’t pay $ 1800 to them, so they found a way to get some money from me. They are dishonest ppl, not competent and they dont even know what they do, and the funny thing here is all the others reviews were made by their friends.
You have the choice to go there and pay the price or run away from those ppl. You decided what do you do, but dont complain later.

I stopped by there yesterday because my trans has been shifting hard while I have been on the freeway. After explaining what my trans was doing to the guy in the office he told me he thought it was a bad coil in my engine and not my transmission. He even came out and plugged in a device to check for a faults. The device did not work at first because I had a bad fuse and he asked one of the employees to change my fuse and then his device worked. He said there were not faults showing but if I wanted I could bring truck back for a better look that I could at anytime. He did not charge me anything for this whole process. Leon is a business that has to make money and I even offered to pay and he said no. Who does that now days. I thanked him and wanted to share my experience with anyone that wants to hear it.
I will now and forever go back there when I have any trans issues.
Also i want to say that I am not friends with anyone there and this was my honest experience. The guy who wrote the bad review in this web site should only speak for himself and not others.

This place is OUTSTANDING. First, their customer service is second to none. From my initial phone call, Dustin was both polite and very informative. They kept me updated with every step of the process. The end result was a complete tranny rebuild (I was hoping for the best, but expecting the worst so the news didn’t faze me). They do great work and stand behind it with a nationwide warranty. Dustin & Steve were great. They even got me a «shop rate» for my rental car which saved me almost $ 20 per day even with my AAA discount. Don’t go anywhere else in the SCV if you need transmission work done. Again, OUTSTANDING.

I was referred to them by Big Johns in Valencia and after taking my vehicle to several shops to get estimates ranging from $ 1500 – 2400 to repair my front transfer case I spoke to Dustin at Leon’s transmission and from the very first conversation I had a good feeling about them. He was straight up about everything and told me it could be as little as x and as much as x, depending upon what was really wrong with it once they had a look. I dropped it off on a Wednesday fully expecting it to take at least a week because all of the other shops had said it would be at least a week. Two days later my car was ready, he had the old part sitting there for me to check out when I got there and they fully explained what was wrong and even showed me the issues with the old part. There price was significantly less that everywhere else and there were no hidden surprise charges. I highly recommend them for any transmission, transfer case or differential issue you may have. They even gave me a 12 month unlimited mile warranty for the part and labor of the repair.

I use Big Johns Performance for EVERYTHING!!! They couldn’t fix a problem I had with my wife’s car so they sent me to Leons. I was very scared it was going to cost an arm and leg. Their mechanic (tall guynfrom Michigan) took one look and in MINUTES new the problem and sent me back to Big Johns to let them know what it was. They fixed it right away… AND DIDN’T CHARGE ME! All because they were having a hard time figuring it out!
Best two automotive places in town… Big Johns and Leons! Thanks guys!

Leon’s did a great job with my car. They said it would only be two or three days and it ended up taking a week, but it was only because they were so thorough. They wanted to make sure they were fixing the right thing, and they ended up replacing the computer instead of breaking into my transmission. Saved me like $ 1500 dollars. Dustin and Steve were great, very attentive and always calling me with updates. I would go there again in a heartbeat!

I broke down in my Tahoe on the 5 freeway with a car full of boy scouts from San Diego in route for Magic Mountain. Steve and Dustin at Leon’s Transmissions were extremely courteous and helpful. My transmission was slipping badly and wouldn’t go into 3^rd or 4^th gear. They filled it with fluid and test drove it for me. It still wasn’t fixed. They said the transmission probably needed to be rebuilt.
In the end, these guys rebuilt the transmission in 2 days and at a very reasonable price! They even stayed late one night to get it done knowing that I had to make a long trip from San Diego to come get it. I was very pleased. And even more pleased when I found out the warranty would be covered at any transmission shop that is a member of ATRA.
