The correct response is:

Dilation transformations are the only ones that do not maintain the same side lengths.

Dilation transformations change the size of a figure, either enlarging or shrinking it, while maintaining the shape, but altering the side lengths. In contrast, translations, rotations, and reflections maintain both the size and shape of the figure, keeping side lengths unchanged.
