Fleet Vehicles We Service in Bakersfield, CA
Brandon’s Transmission & Automotive Repair works on the types of vehicles that keep Bakersfield businesses moving, and understands that fleets have unique needs. That includes light-duty trucks, work vans, pickups, cargo vans, box trucks, and diesel-powered work vehicles. If your fleet is a mix of gas and diesel, we handle both. You don’t need to split your vehicles between shops.
Diesel is a core part of what we do. In Kern County, a significant portion of commercial and work vehicles run diesel engines, and those engines need technicians who are familiar with them specifically. Our diesel engine services cover diagnostics, fuel system repairs, and maintenance intervals suited to diesel vehicles. For a fleet manager, that means one shop that can handle the full picture and get your vehicles back to peak performance.
Why Choose Brandon’s Transmission for Fleet Services?
We understand that maintaining a fleet of vehicles is essential for your business’s success. Our goal is to help you achieve optimal efficiency and minimize downtime by offering comprehensive fleet services.
Here’s why you should choose us:

- Customized Maintenance Plans: We offer tailored maintenance plans to suit the specific needs of your fleet, helping you stay on schedule and avoid unexpected breakdowns.
Fleet Services We Provide
Brandon’s covers the full range of maintenance and repair work your fleet vehicles need to stay operational. Here’s what we take care of:
- Preventive maintenance — oil changes, fluid checks and top-offs, filter replacements, and scheduled service intervals. Staying on top of routine maintenance is the most reliable way to avoid the kind of unexpected breakdowns that pull a vehicle out of rotation at the worst time.
- Transmission repair and service — transmission work is a specialty at Brandon’s, not an afterthought. Fleet trucks and vans put serious mileage and load stress on transmissions. Whether vehicles are showing early signs of slipping or need more involved repairs or a full rebuild, our team has the experience to handle it. All transmission rebuilds come with a 3-year/36,000-mile nationwide warranty.
- Engine diagnostics and repair — we use state-of-the-art diagnostic software to identify engine problems accurately before any work starts. For fleet vehicles, that matters because a misdiagnosis wastes time and money. We run the diagnostics, explain what we find, and only recommend what’s actually needed.
- Brake service — brake maintenance on fleet vehicles is a safety issue and a liability issue. We inspect and service brake systems across your vehicles to keep drivers safe and keep you compliant.
- Electrical diagnostics and repair — modern work trucks and vans have complex electrical systems. We diagnose and repair electrical faults, wiring issues, and charging system problems that can otherwise be difficult to track down.
- A/C service — in Bakersfield’s heat, a vehicle without functioning air conditioning can be a real working condition issue for drivers spending long hours on the road. We service A/C systems across fleet vehicles to keep them running through the summer.
- Driveline and suspension service — fleet vehicles take on more wear through daily use than personal vehicles. We handle driveline repairs, suspension work, and steering repairs to keep vehicles driving safely and handling properly.
- Digital vehicle inspections — every vehicle that comes through Brandon’s receives a complimentary digital inspection. The report gets sent directly to you, so you have a clear picture of each vehicle’s condition and what’s coming up. For fleet managers tracking multiple vehicles, that documentation is useful.

Two Locations Across Bakersfield
Brandon’s has two shops in Bakersfield, one on the south side at 9834 S Union Ave, and one on the north side at 3405 Turcon Ave on. For businesses with vehicles operating across different parts of the city or surrounding areas, that flexibility is worth something.
A vehicle working near the north end of town can come to the north location; one operating south doesn’t need to make an unnecessary cross-city trip. Both shops run the same services, the same standards, and the same team.
