Chalard to the rescue! I have been having some transmission problems recently... I did not know that Chalard even worked on those kinds of issues... but thankfully, he does. I got 3 different quotes to get a new transmission. 3000 from the dealer. 2000 for a rebuilt one at a local transmission shop. 1750 at a different transmission shop. My car is 11 years old and is in otherwise great shape... but the blue book value is only around 3500... so I was thinking about possibly getting a whole new car. As a hail mary, I brought it to Chalard to take a look at. He is not a man of many words, but I agreed to leave it with him for a day. The following day he called me and said that he was looking for a used transmission to put in. The next day he called me to tell me that it was done. Total price tag $750!!! I picked up my car the next day and drove away. I noticed a few problems with that transmission (which came with a 90 day warranty from the junk yard) so I brought the car back in to him. He had to replace that transmission with a different one... and after testing it himself, he realized that THAT transmission also was no good. So, he put a third in. I picked up my car a week ago and it feels like I am driving a brand new car. And what did Chalard charge me for all of the extra work that him and his employees put into my 3 transmission car? Nothing. I only paid the 750 that he charged me to originally to fix my car. He is a wonderful man with a kind heart. It truly makes him happy to see others happy. Thanks Chalard... for everything. If only everyone ran a business like you.
