Trusted Auto Repair Services for Valley Ford Drivers
Valley Ford sits at one of Sonoma County's most scenic crossroads — where Valley Ford Road meets the Estero Americano, dairy farms stretch toward the Marin border, and the Valley Ford Hotel anchors a community that has thrived on agriculture for over a century. With a population of around 150, Valley Ford is one of the most rural communities in all of western Sonoma County, which means that when your vehicle breaks down, you feel it. Rohnert Park Transmission & Auto Repair is the closest full-service, ASE and ATRA Certified auto repair near me for Valley Ford residents — 22 miles east via Bodega Avenue and Stony Point Road, about 28–30 minutes depending on traffic. For nearly three decades, we've been the shop that western Sonoma County's most rural communities call when they need a mechanic they can actually trust.
Valley Ford vehicles earn their miles the hard way. Trucks carrying milk from dairy operations on Valley Ford Road, farm equipment support vehicles navigating Estero Americano-area ranch roads, visitor vehicles making the scenic run between Bodega Bay and Petaluma — all of these put unique demands on brakes, transmissions, and suspension systems. Coastal proximity means salt air exposure and moisture that accelerate corrosion on brake components and undercarriage parts. Hill grades on Valley Ford Road and Tomales Road stress transmissions in ways that flat-highway driving never does. Our ASE Certified technicians understand these real-world conditions and are equipped to handle transmission repair, brake service, oil changes, suspension work, check engine light diagnostics, and factory-scheduled maintenance for the trucks and SUVs that Valley Ford residents depend on.
When you drive 30 minutes to a mechanic, you need to know the shop is worth it. Rohnert Park Transmission has earned that reputation over 28 years in Sonoma County. We carry ATRA certification for transmission work — the most rigorous drivetrain credential in the industry — alongside ASE Certified status, AMRA MAP Participating Facility designation, and a BBB A+ rating. Our 4.8-star average across 183 verified reviews reflects the experience every Valley Ford, Bodega, and western Sonoma County customer should expect: an honest diagnosis, a clear estimate with no hidden fees, repairs performed by skilled technicians, and a vehicle returned to you in better shape than it arrived. We treat every rural driver who makes the trip to see us with the same care we'd want our own neighbors to receive.

What Valley Ford Customers Are Saying
"My dually handles milk transport from the ranch and started having major slipping issues under heavy load on Valley Ford Road grades. Rohnert Park Transmission rebuilt the transmission completely — told me what it needed, showed me the worn parts, and got it done in four days. Truck pulls like new. No other shop near Valley Ford touches this quality."
- Bill M., Valley Ford Resident
"I commute from Valley Ford to Santa Rosa and my brakes were grinding badly. Called Rohnert Park Transmission, got in the next morning. Full brake job front and rear, rotor replacement, and a courtesy check of my whole car. They found a loose heat shield rattling under there too and fixed it no charge. Honest and thorough."
- Angie R., Valley Ford Resident
"My F-350 has been through a lot on ranch roads near the Estero. When the check engine light came on along with a rough idle, I called around and Rohnert Park Transmission was the only shop that actually explained what they'd look for before charging me. Turned out to be a failing EGR valve. Fixed it properly and did my oil change at the same time. Fair price, great service."
- Scott P., Valley Ford Resident
"My Jeep takes a beating on Valley Ford Road and the rough roads toward Tomales. Rohnert Park Transmission did my 60k service and caught worn struts I didn't know about. They gave me photos and explained why it mattered for safety on those hill grades. The ride is completely different now. Worth every mile of the drive to Rohnert Park."
- Renee D., Valley Ford Resident
