Did a great Job of explaining in detail some of the issues with my Truck that I was not aware of and kept cost at a very reasonable price for everything he did on top of replacing my Transmission. He came highly recommended and now I know why.

I took my ram there for a Transmission service, PTC had it completed in one day. They went through inspection, updated codes rest taps. PTC was recommended by a coworker and he was right, best in the business.

Very knowledgeable guy. Nice people. He knows the workings of the transmission. Just had mine serviced, but they do everything involved if need be.

The best service I've ever recieved! My truck kept sliding into 4th gear while I was driving on the highway, from New York to Missouri at 3pm the Friday before Christmas. Everyone I called was closing at 4 or 5pm and they wouldn't be able to check it until Thursday after Christmas. I called Powell's and they said come over its ok to drive it less than 2 miles, they fixed my transmission and had me out the door by 6pm.
Anyone else would have told me I needed a new transmission and probably charge me a ton but they found the issue and were reasonably priced! They even called after Christmas to make sure my mom and I got home safe!

You will not find auto mechanics with better professionalism or integrity anywhere. My father-in-law runs his car (and ours) in and they always stop and take a minute to chat and make him feel valued. The price is always reasonable and they review everything they've done and why. We really appreciate their kindness, knowledge, and customer service!

Hey.you have transmission problems, they have the cure! And, at an honest & fair price. Yes it is a bit out-of-the-way for us city folk but even with a tilt bed journey of my vehicle.it was not only cheaper but also done right.
