Do not buy a transmission from this man! Very shady and untrustworthy. Save yourself the headache, money blown and run!

Took my 2004 Nissan Maxima to Cottman for help with a transmission fluid leak diagnosed by my regular mechanics. They felt that my transmission would soon need major repair. Daniel Simon, Cottman Transmission owner, was able to determine that the leaks my car was experiencing were not actually from the transmission, but rather that the sources of the leaks were a front axle shaft seal, valve cover gasket, and oil pressure switch. He completed those all those repairs and I have had no further leaks. Daniel patiently explained... read more

My ford Eco 2002 van could not pass its inspection. Talked with Dan and told me to bring it in. I did just that and they found the problem and was able to get on it right away. I was told to come get it the next day. Had to drive it for about 100 miles before I could get it re inspected. Like clock work from the time I called the Cary store and talked with Dan. A+ thank you all very much. Simon Hardwood is driving legal again.... Thanks for a great experience..,.

I would not recommend Cottman to anyone. The man who identified himself as the owner, Daniel Simon, was very rude and unpleasant to deal with. He made comments like "I can't deal with this lady",”Oh my God" and few other very rude remarks while I was explaining to him my concerns over the phone. The man behind the counter who identified himself as Jason was new and highly inexperienced. Finally able to get my car after 3 weeks of being stressed and disrespected and not valued as a customer!!!

Great service! They were not only very nice - they had my oil change and tire rotation done in about 30 minutes and they didn't try to sell me any other junk I didn't need. Great coupons too! I'll definitely come back!

Hands down, this company provided me with one of the worst experiences I've ever had with a repair shop. Regrettably, they reaffirm every negative stereotype that exists about mechanics and repairmen. My car broke down on me on a Thursday evening. From the signs and symptoms that it displayed, I assumed it was a transmission issue. First thing Friday morning, I called Cottman and spoke with Daniel, who identified himself as the owner. I explained the situation to him in detail and informed him that the cost of repairs may be... read more

Hats off to a business that could have taken advantage of a consumer but instead delivered good old fashion customer service. Recently I had transmission problems with my BMW so I took it to Cottman for repair. I had initially assummed that it was gonna be a costly bill since I was dealing with a transmission problem. I received a phone call shortly after dropping it off and was updated about the repair cost. To my surprise my vehicle was repaired that same day and the cost was more than fair.

Beware of Quality of Work – Beware of Quality of Transmission Work. I had my transmission in my Honda CRV rebuilt by Cottman in Cary in January 2010 (approx $2900 Ouch). When I picked up my car they told me the noise I was still hearing was a bad wheel bearing. After driving it for few days I was not convinced the noise was wheel bearing. Returned the car to Cottman and they had to conduct additional repair to transmission. Everything fine until a December 2010 I noticed spots on my driveway which turned out to be a transmis... read more

This is my 2nd time to go to Cottman for my Camry since I moved here from NYC a year ago, brad is very nice and honest, not only he matched price other dealer offers for old change, but he also did a free check up for my car and assured me that I can drive for a long distance for the coming holiday. He did point out a minor problem my car has for future reference, no push like other dealer, really appreciate that. It's the 1st place to go if you have a problem with your car or truck. Highly recommend!
