J & C Transmissions Shop in Redlands

I took my 2009 Journey because it wouldn’t shift into third gear and the transmission was slipping. From the very first day I brought the vehicle in, Mr. Rolman always explained step by step what he was doing to the car. He was always in communication with me and always honest. The issue my car had was very difficult, but Rolman never stopped looking until he found the problem. My car came out of the shop running great. All I can say is that Rolman knows what he’s doing and always looks for a way to fix the problem so that the car runs properly. Thank you.

Super knowledgeable. Great customer service. I'm glad I came here.

After an unsatisfactory experience at the Ford dealer, a mysterious drive train/bearing noise on my 2003 F250 brought me to J & C Transmissions this week (2/3/25). After a quick test drive with me, Rolman (the owner of J & C) agreed something was amiss, and said he would take on the job. Rolman proceeded to systematically eliminate the most obvious culprits {front & rear wheel bearings and transmission issues), before finding the problem with the rear differential bearings & carrier housing. He showed me the worn parts (and source of the noise) and was able to get me back on the road quickly. Rolman is old school, honest and like a bull dog......determined to find & fix my problem. Quality work & fair price. Five stars all the way!

The owner is knowledgeable, and they'll do the work which is why I chose them but I have been to places more honest in regards to pricing. I had a small shift issue and I know I needed rebuild because of friction material on a fluid change and my bands are all the way in. The owner was civil but to be frank, we found him a little abrasive but maybe we caught him on a bad day so I won't assume he's that way all the time. I know he doesn't need business. I also asked for a written estimate since needed repair recommended was over 1500.00, and he acted like request was either unreasonable or unusual, I had to make another trip to get one. In California if you don't get one, you're a fool. Laws protect mechanics. There's stories all over the web about people who lost Ferraris and lambos over an oil change b cause a shop played games. Anyway a valve body was recommended, he insisted on using an factory part and said it was all that was available. That didn't sound right to me but I was in a bind. I found out later it was a blatant lie and he charged me list on the factory part which was 400.00 more than he paid (called every dealer within 50 miles) and I bet he got a discount off of retail. He also recommended all new solenoids and although they are only 30 bucks each and easy to test, why would you replace all with one bad shift and good pressure? All the biggest names in trans have rebuilt ones for a third what I paid. This is not a valve body with many moving parts. Some of these companies even improve passages for most common problems as a bonus. There was one from a specialty company that does top fuel that sells them for stockers at half the price and it's signed off on by ten people before it goes out the door. Nuff said there. He does warranty his work and honor it I heard which is good, I was unhappy he charged for fluid at top dollar when he gets it by the drum and should have thrown it in. I paid about 400.00 for an hours labor. I am a fair person so only left neutral rating. The guy knows his stuff but if he won't lift a finger to get you savings at every step in the process when they charge top money for labor, what good is that? I had another big job done elsewhere, also auto and because labor was high (but fair and accurate) they threw in ALL parts at their cost because they were grateful for the business. I hope this helps someone and to the owner. Don't reply I'm not reading it.

J&C was great. I don't trust most auto shops because I've been burnt in the past. I'm new to the area so I drove 25 miles on a recommendation. Rolman found my transmission leak and repaired it in less than 2 hrs at a fair price. I'll be back! God Bless.

Last week on my way to A customer when my rear differential went out, I called Jan C and he stayed open late just to receive my truck from the tow yard. His service was fast and efficient being a small business owner myself. I use my truck for work and I needed it that week to fill orders by customers J & C transmission got the job done. Highly Recommend Shop.

Had a transmission sensor O-ring and pan leak on my Ford F150. Two different shops in Beaumont recommended J&C. Dropped my truck off at 11:30am, I had to work at 9pm, J&C had it all done by 2:30pm and at a great price! Very friendly people, I highly recommend this shop.

I had a NB2 Miata drift car. Wanted to run a 4.77 ring and pinion and rebuild the diff while it was apart. Every other shop wanted $500-750 and they wanted at minimum a week to do the swap. J&C quoted $350 and did it in two days. The car went to the track, was abused lap after lap, clutch kicks, tandem, power shifting, etc. in 100° weather and the diff never whined, chattered, or anything. Excellent work, price, and punctuality.
