Transmission Repair & Replacement Services in
Lawndale, CA

Your transmission is one of the most complex and essential systems in your vehicle. It controls how power is delivered to the wheels and affects everything from fuel efficiency to drivability. Signs of a failing transmission—such as delayed gear engagement, fluid leaks, burning smells, or dashboard warning lights—should never be ignored. What starts as a minor issue could quickly turn into a full transmission failure, leaving you with an expensive repair or replacement that could have been avoided with early intervention.

At South Bay Car Care, we understand the urgency of addressing transmission issues the right way. We begin with a complete system evaluation, checking fluid quality, pressure levels, and scanning for fault codes. From worn clutches and valve body issues to torque converter failures and sensor malfunctions, our ASE Certified technicians are equipped to find and fix the problem efficiently. If a replacement is needed, we’ll explain all your options and install a reliable transmission built to OEM standards. Whether you're driving a domestic sedan or an import SUV, our transmission services are tailored to your vehicle’s needs, backed by AMSOIL-approved lubricants and a 2-year/24,000-mile warranty for peace of mind.
