CALIFORNIA AUTO REPAIR SHOP FOR JENNER RESIDENTS

Trusted Auto Repair Services for Jenner Drivers

Searching for auto repair near me in Jenner? Rohnert Park Transmission & Auto Repair has been the trusted choice for Sonoma Coast drivers since 1997. Our shop at 305 Laguna Dr in Rohnert Park sits approximately 30 miles from Jenner — about 38-45 minutes via Highway 116 East through Sebastopol, then south on US-101. Jenner is one of California's most beautiful coastal communities, perched at the mouth of the Russian River where it meets the Pacific on Highway 1. It is also one of the most isolated. There is no auto repair shop in Jenner and no mechanic within miles along Highway 1. For Jenner residents, vacation property owners, and the thousands of visitors who explore Goat Rock Beach, Jenner Headlands, and the harbor seal colony at the river mouth, vehicle reliability is not optional — it is essential.

Driving in and out of Jenner means navigating some of California's most demanding road conditions. Highway 1 north and south of Jenner features sharp switchbacks, coastal fog that can reduce visibility to near zero, and wet pavement that demands properly functioning brakes at all times. The route east on Highway 116 toward Duncans Mills winds through the Russian River valley with its own set of curves and grades. Vehicles that regularly drive these roads — especially those parked near the ocean and exposed to salt air — develop specific wear patterns that general mechanics often miss. Our technicians are experienced with coastal Sonoma County conditions: salt corrosion on brake lines and calipers, moisture-related electrical issues, and suspension stress from rough coastal roads. When you bring your vehicle to us, we inspect it with Jenner's driving environment specifically in mind.

For the small permanent community of Jenner and the many coastal property owners who spend weekends and summers here, a breakdown is a serious problem. Towing from Jenner on Highway 1 is expensive and slow. The nearest gas station is miles away. Our shop offers a practical solution: schedule preventive service before problems develop, catch issues early, and avoid the worst-case scenario of being stranded on a cliff-side stretch of Highway 1. We have served countless Sonoma Coast drivers over our 28 years in business, including tourists whose vehicles acted up during whale watching seasons, vacation homeowners preparing their cars before the summer rush, and the hardy year-round Jenner residents who depend on their vehicles to stay connected to services in Rohnert Park, Santa Rosa, and beyond.
