Welcome to Certified Transmission
of Santee. We are a family
owned and operated business. We have been providing full transmission service since 1978. We have 17 employees
with over 200 years of combined transmission experience.
When considering whether you need a Factory Remanufactured Transmission, a Rebuilt Transmission, or a Used transmission
we have it all with a nationwide warranty too. Because we have a huge inventory, we can repair, rebuild,and replace
most transmissions quickly.
We are automatic transmission troubleshooting experts. Many so-called automatic transmission problems are not transmission
problems at all. A faulty computer chip, an intermittent "prndl" switch (park-reverse-neutral0-drive-low),
a leaking vacuum line, and many other seemingly unrelated problems mights be diagnosed as a transmission problem
by others.
