We started losing gears while out of town in our 2007 Suburban. My wife made some calls and Ken was able to fit us in quickly. We had it transported to his shop, he found the issue (orbital gear snapped) and was able to rebuilt/repair for a reasonable cost in less than a week. It has been running great!We were so satisfied with his work that we ended up towing our 1997 Suburban to have him rebuild that transmission also. Its an older Suburban, but he was able to repair it in about week even having to wait for a couple of parts. Truck runs and shifts great! We did have one issue with the linkage (which was on backorder), but he was able to get us running until the new cable came in.

Third and forth gear went out on my Crown Vic P71. Direct clutch drum failure. Ken fixed the problem. My transmission now shifts smooth and right!

Ken is an A1 guy honest and straight forward the top side very knowledgeable. I had the tow company drop my Chevy Tahoe off to him and he got to work in no time. I actually stopped by to speak to him and he pointed out a few other things my truck was doing. Had my truck done on time like he said he would and running extra smooth. I am definitely recommending him to anyone in need of having their car worked on. Hard to fine an honest mechanic at a great price. Thanks again Alex Pena

Brought my 03 Silverado 3500 in for Ken to look at. Very reasonable price for transmission repair. It didnt cost me an arm and a leg like most places were wanting. Truck is running smoothly and back to its former glory. Would highly recommend Independent Transmission Repair to anyone who is worried about being overcharged for their transmission needs.

Ken did a great job in fixing my car. He fixed my motor and transmission for a good price. He is a very hard worker and got done with my car in 2 weeks and it’s been working great since. Ken always helped me and is flexible with pricing to fit your price range. He was very honest and won’t try to scam you into paying for things that aren’t wrong with the car. If you need a good transmission guy, he’s the one.

Took my 2016 GMC to Ken and he was able to provide a fair quote to fix my transmission. The repair didnt take long. No more leaks and the truck drives smooth. He kept his word with the timeline. I would recommend Ken and Independent Transmission.

Would strongly recommend. Ken did a transmission upgrade on my 1955 Chevy. He modified the mounts and cabling to accommodate a rebuilt 700R4. Works great. Very reasonable prices and fast. He took the time and explained everything. Answered all my questions. This is the second car he has helped me out.

Update: Ken pinched the wiring harness between the transmission and engine. He refused to replace the wiring harness. Use this company at your own risk!Ken did a great job placing the clutch on my 2006 Mustang. For fast and dependable service call Ken!

My new/old vehicle transmission was not working. 1993 Ford with a AOD transmission with passing gear and overdrive not available. Ken and I took a ride in it so he could diagnose the transmission. He said he knew what it was and could fix it. Ken gave me an estimate and time-frame to fix the vehicle. After a week in the shop, he got it all fixed up for a good price and now my 93 vehicle works great.Ken did a great transmission rebuild for a good price. Very happy with the job!Thanks Ken,Don Luttrell

Ken answered my email questions with a telephone call on a Saturday! WOW! He patiently answered my questions and agreed to meet me on Monday (he would have on Sat but I was 1200 miles away). My overdrive was not working and he said he would replace it. We agreed on a price-he took me home(16 miles away) and said it would be ready friday. Friday morning 10am he called and said its done. He picked me up and we went for a test drive. I am 100% satisfied with his work and the guarantee he gave me. He did everything he said he would do and he did it in a personable, honest manner. I trust this man.

Ken did a great transmission job on my Camry! Saved me hundreds of $$, as well. I will not be going to corporate auto repair businesses, as long as Ken is in town. We need more people like him.

Kenneth is a professional at transmission repairs and a professional when it comes to customer service. He saved me a great deal of money when it came to repairing my trucks transmission. He was generous with his pricing and offered me a 2 year warranty. I have recommended him to all my family and friends. Your search for a reliable transmission specialist, that you can trust on, has just ended.

The three important things you want in a repair shop are a good price, high quality work, and excellent service. This shop gets an A+ in all areas!The owner, Ken, is extremely knowledgeable and provided honest, no-nonsense service. The transmission replacement was done with a high level of precision and the end product was better than expected. I called around and shopped the price and they weren’t at the bottom but the work was explained and the pricing was fair – I didn’t feel like I was getting gauged on anything. You can also be sure the quoted price is what you pay (no surprise charges). Independent Transmission Repair gets my highest recommendation.

I had an issue with my Chevrolet car, and was not from the area so wasnt sure who to use. Needless to say I was in a real bind to find a trustworthy transmission mechanic, and called up Independent Transmission Repair based on the reviews, and spoke with Kenneth. Kenneth got me up and going that day, even though I had no scheduled appointment as I was in from out of town.Ken really help me out, and my cars transmission was repaired properly. I definitely stand behind this 5-Star review.

Ken is a hard-working transmission repair specialist with decades of experience. His prices are fair, and hell get you car or truck back on the road where it belongs just as quick he can. He backs up his work with a 2-year warranty, which was an important factor when deciding on who to choose.

I have a 2012 Chevy Silverado. Transmission went out. I was looking for someone honest. I seen the good reviews about Ken. He answered the phone. Offerd me a ride home and knew his stuff. He rebuilt my transmission and put a warranty on his work. He did great job and my truck is better than ever

I had a great experience at independent transmissions at his new Melbourne location. I was told by Richs auto repair in west Melbourne that my cars transmission was going to need to be completely rebuilt and would cost more than the value of my car, and they tried to convince me it was too dangerous to drive and needed to be traded in. I went to independent transmission for a second opinion to find out there was nothing wrong with my transmission and the noise I was hearing was the differential mount becoming lose. Much cheaper fix, and a very honest and straight forward mechanic.

Independent Transmission was honest and professional. A great place!Im visiting my mother in Melbourne Fl, and I have a older car- a 2009 Honda Accord. Last week I was ready to drive my car back to my house, when the transmission started acting up. So my mom recommended Independent Transmission. She said that she trusts them fully and that they did a phenomenal job on her car. Ken (the owner) was very professional, and he fixed my car in 2 days, which is way faster than I expected, and for a reasonable price too. Also he checked my whole car to make sure everything was safe and working properly.

*Update*Please read!!! 9 months after Ken Peterson rebuilt my transmission it stopped working! It would no longer come out of second gear and I looked at my paperwork thankful he had giving me a one year warranty! Well I brought the truck back to him and he was extremely rude telling me he was very busy and he wouldnt be able to fix it for 4 months(conveniently after the warranty expired) I was also having trouble with my brakes at the time and he informed me he would fix that problem the next day for $680.00! I brought my truck to another mechanic and was told how terrible of a job Ken did on my transmission and that they would replace my brake booster(which is why my brakes wouldnt work) for $218.00!! Thats 460 dollars less than what Ken was trying to charge me! Plus he never actually rebuilt my transmission he only replaced some broken parts and basically put a band-aid on it! This man is very dishonest,rude,unreliable and definitely not trustworthy! I would NOT recommend him to anyone....EVER! Please be wary when dealing with him if you must! *****The following is my original review***** I had a good experience at this transmission shop! Ken Peterson is knowledgeable and dependable! He rebuilt the transmission on our 2006 Expedition and I am very happy with how fast and honest he is! His pricing is very competitive and I would recommend him to anyone who needs a trustworthy mechanic!

Ken rebuilt the transmission and tuned up the engine on my van. The work included replacing the oxygen sensors. He does good work, meets the schedule that he tells you and charges a fair price. I am very satisfied with his work.

Rebuilt a 48re transmission and did what I asked. The transmission has performed well for almost a year and 10,000+ miles. Told me my drive line was vibrating and going out, which it was. Treated me good and was honest. Had my pickup done really quick too.
