Description
Shifting Gears brings heart, humor, and horsepower to ABC’s heartfelt family dramedy. The series follows Matt Parker, a widowed mechanic and owner of Parker Custom Cars, whose quiet life shifts when his estranged daughter Riley returns home after 15 years—with two kids and a lot of baggage.
As Riley rebuilds her life after divorce, she and Matt clash over parenting styles, work boundaries, and the ghosts of their past. Between rebuilding cars and family bonds, Matt faces his grief head-on while Riley learns to stand on her own. Supporting characters like Gabriel and Stitch add warmth and wit, as the show balances emotional depth with small-town charm.
By the finale, Riley turns down her ex’s attempt to rekindle their marriage, Matt starts to open his heart again, and the Parkers emerge closer than ever. Shifting Gears is a story of second chances, messy family healing, and the unexpected joy of new beginnings—set against the hum of classic engines and heartfelt laughs.
