Parker Transmission & Gear

I showed up to Parker Transmission with a slipping transmission and asked for help. They hooked up a computer to my car and ran some diagnostics. Brought the codes into the shop and looked them over. He got a puzzled look on his face and said, does your heater blow cold air? What! how did he know that! turned out I had a bad thermostat and since the car wasn't warming up, the computer wasn't controlling the transmission. Total bill, Nothing! He had plenty of customers in the shop and now I know why. You can trust these guy's.

I went to Parker Transmission based on the first review after doing an online search for a transmission place in Parker. I don't want to type this whole story out, but the short version is that I took my vehicle to 3 different places in Parker because I was hearing a clunking sound, and Dale finally diagnosed it as my front left axle. To rebuild it and labor it was about $200. A lot lower than the $2500 I was quoted by another place for a transmission going bad. It turns out it was not my transmission, and had I listened to the other place who told me to keep driving it until the transmission went bad, I would have been stranded on some dirt road while camping in the next few days, as it was ready to completely explode and become inoperable. And as fate would have it, I was in the car the very next morning after that repair to see my Dad in the ICU 750 miles away, which means I would have been broken down on the highway! Some short version, huh? I would recommend this shop to anyone, and my neighbor says she had a good interaction with him too in which he was honest with her, too.

If your looking for a locally owned and operated, honest shop to go to to, look no further! Paker Transmission was highly recommended to me, I know why. I talked to the owner, who is also a transmission specialist about my issue with my truck. He said bring it in, so I dropped it off. The next day when i was at work, he called and told me it was a simple solution. He knew the problem and said it could be fixed that day, so I said sure. He also let me know that some of my vacuum lines needed replacement. So, I said how much, he replied with a figure that the most reasonable. I could not believe his honesty and professionalism!? He went straight to the point about my truck, and now it runs even better! I would highly recommend Parker Transmission to those who need a high quality job, but not high quality charges, he is the most down to earth person you will ever meet, I can understand why they are highly recommended by the local businesses around! Thanks, Parker Transmission, you made a friend!
