As usual i pushed my car to its breaking point..... broke my axle on my subaru and when i say broke.... it was bad! I am a single female living paycheck to paycheck so a repair like this put me into full panic mode fast. I called the first mechanic that popped up and it was Tigard Transmisson. I called the number at 8pm (way after business hours) thinking i was going to have to leave a message but to my surprise the owner, Ken, answered! And when i say he was amazing i really mean it. The first thing he asked me is if i was ok and in a safe place and after i told him yes he them asked me a couple random non car questions wich calmed me down enough to explain what was going on with my car. He listened and even understood my descriptive "noises". He did not spend an hour "mansplaining" he was straight up with me and broke down the price and what and why would happen. Unlike most mechanic he did not act like i was unknowledgeable about cars because i was a woman. And the price he quoted was about 30% less than the other 3 quotes i later got. I had my car towed to his shop, he told me it could be up to 5 days before he could get to it because they were swamped but to my surprise he called me 2 days after it waz dropped off to tell me it was done! And not only that it ended up costing me $100 less than quoted. I cant put into words how happy i was with the whole experience. I am so grateful for Ken and everything he did for me and my family. I highly recommend and will be back if i ever need any repairs.

My transmission broke down at Tigard on my way from Seattle to San Diego. I found Tigard Transmissons next to I5. It's unbelievable that the job's done in 4 hrs. They have over 160 already rebuilt units in stock and, voila, just R&R with a very reasonable price and I was back on my trip. Thank you guys, you're great and awesome !
