The fellows at the front desk take customer service to another level of excellence, they should teach it to people. We were highly impressed with the quality of work Parkland/Mister transmission did. The mechanics ran into a snag which was an unexpected defective part and had to keep the car overnight. We were assured the work would br completed for me first thing in the morning as I needed my car that day and that happened!. .I just looked online and picked this company,I will never go anywhere else for transmission or drive train work.Thank you for your excellence!

Mister Transmission / Parkland Transmission...
Neil Montgomery
Mister Transmission / Parkland Transmission has been the most trusted name in transmission repair in Red Deer for certainly at least the last 20 or 25 years. I just had a transmission completely rebuilt on a 2015 Chevy Silverado, and with all of the modifications and computer tuning that they did it is the finest shifting transmission I've ever had. I opted to have them rebuild this one as opposed to putting in a brand new transmission from GM, because from all their years of experience, they had a system where they (design out all the weak spots coming out in the new transmission these days), with upgraded parts and their computer tuning package. Many years ago before I came across what was then known as "Parkland Transmission', ... maybe 30 years ago or so, I had 2 other transmission shops work on other vehicles I had trans issues, one of them was Tierra Transmission (no longer in business?), I made it about 6 blocks before my truck wouldn't go anywhere with the transmission slipping and they wouldn't warranty it. I was young and I didn't know how to deal with people like that back then so they " took me to the cleaners" ... Times were different back then. The other transmission shop I won't name here, but I had paid them to swap out a failing transmission for one that I had in my garage at home that had been completely rebuilt earlier elsewhere, .... I paid them for the job but nice spidey senses were telling me something wasn't right, so I crawled under my vehicle after getting it to my acreage, I realized that there was mud steel cacked on the bell housing bolts that would have had to have been removed just swap the transmissions. The RCMP were involved in that one, and it was settled out of court. During this current interaction with the Mr Transmission / Parkland Transmission folks, I can truthfully say I never lost a wink of sleep wondering if they were actually doing the job that I had contracted them to do. I would recommend these folks to anyone. They are not the cheapest, but the fact of the matter is they are the best, and you can't expect them to be both the lowest cost and the highest quality as we know.
