Hello and thank you for stopping by our site. We are a nationwide company with over centers throughout the US and Canada. We service, repair and rebuild all types of transmissions for both individuals and fleets companies.Typically, we work with clients who have transmission problems and are frustrated with the process of getting their car repaired. Our clients have told us before we started working with them they were concern with being overcharged for work performed. They were afraid of being lied too and would be charged for work that they did not need. Now, you probably don’t have these concerns, if you do, then you should call and find out if you qualify for a free complete transmission checkup. This includes a road test and external examination of your transmission, where we will evaluate the performance and condition of your vehicle's transmission, and determine what services, if any, are required.

I personally had my transmission rebuilt by Cottman's of Durham. They not only came in under the quote, but my truck was ready a day early and has run like a dream ever since. The people are so friendly, they obviously see each other as family and when you walk through the door you too become part of that family. Since repairing my truck I have sent my Mom to have work done by them too. She is older and doesn't handle the pressures of car repairs and cost well. She has been treated so kindly both times she has gone in to have repair work done. They have been patient with her and thoroughly explained what was wrong and what needed to be done to fix the problems in a quick and cost efficient manner. They have impressed me beyond words. Like most people, my Mom is the world to me and to know that they have taken such good care of her and helped ease her worries along the way touches my heart. I would recommend them to ALL of Durham, they go above and beyond and if I could give them 10 stars I would, just know the 5 I gave was as high as I could go but they deserve so much more recognition!!!!!!

The way car care should be! Jody and the folks at Cottman were professional and a representation of how to conduct a customer focused business. They explained what was and was not wrong with my older vehicle. They offered suggestions about the next steps to remedy my car problems and when I should revisit Cottman. Being able to trust what a professional says is important to me, and I not only trust the folks at Cottman but respect the way that they treat their customers. I will gladly bring my car back to Cottman because I am confident that I will be treated right.

My name is Jacob and although I didn't actually have any work done to my truck I did have a very honest conversation with Jody about my 8 speed transmission for my 2016 ram 1500.Jody was very well informed about my transmission and explained a lot to me about it.He was extremely honest about my situation and in the end recommended me to NOT get any work done at all!! In my opinion that is the definition of honesty. I would have never known the difference unless he told me. Simply because of that I highly recommend this shop to anyone.
