Price gougers
I took my vehicle there for a simple repair they wanted charge me $300. For the repair. Then the service manager called and said my trans was slipping and needed a transmission. I did not take my vehicle there for anything to do with my transmission slipping. He said there was a code that stated that the repair was needed. At that time I wanted to get second opinion. Do I took my vehicle to another repair shop. They did the original repair for $65. And said nothing was wrong with my transmission. I would be careful bring your vehicle here.

Is it customary to be told no bankcard bring cash. This does not seem professional
UNACCEPTABLE EXPERIENCE!!!
Unacceptable experience, unable to fix the root cause of the problem, changed OEM parts with used/aftermarket parts and yet charged more than the dealer's cost of repair, unreasonable long time turnnover (almost three months) and rude conduct of office personnel. Would not recommend or do business here again!!!

Quality service
I had a 2002 Ford Explorer. Had one of those great sealed transmissions requiring no maintenance for up to 150000 miles. Well at 74000, it went. Took it to Cottman in Emmaus. I had an extended warranty and they worked with the warranty company to arrange the repair. They did a great job rebuilding it so much so that I ran this truck for another 205000+ miles on that rebuild (I also did routine transmission maintenance after that repair). I recently experienced another transmission problem with over 280000 miles. Things are bound to happen when you get the mileage up to this level. The only place I thought of taking it was to Cottman Transmission in Emmaus. Why would I take it anywhere else when they do such quality work. I had a free assessment of the problem the same day and an estimate for the repair. My decision was not to invest in the repair and arranged to donate the vehicle to charity. The staff there was very pleasant to work with and I was not pressured to repair the vehicle. I would recommend them to everyone, kind, courteous, quality work, timely repair and fair pricing. If you need a transmission repair in the Lehigh Valley, GO THERE.

The worst company I have ever dealt with!
Took my car here in June 2016. They had my car 5 days and charged me $3500.00. From the very day I drove away it had problems. Slipping gears, check engine light coming on, vibrating and even not shifting at all unless I used the manual overdrive that my car luckily has! Took the car back multiple times only to hear this part or that part must have been defective and they replaced it. Still to no avail as my check engine light continues to come on and the vibrating got worse. One time I took it back and struck a deal with them so they would not have to pay for a rental car for me... that they would take me to work and pick me up; they used my own car to take me to work (which wasted an hour of mechanics time), and they never showed up to pick me up. I had to call and they acted like they didn't know they were supposed to pick me up! Once again I find that my vehicle would not be done on time and they would have it another day. It is now November 2016 and they actually ordered an entire new (rebuilt) tranny from the dealership. I rented a car and dropped the car off expecting my car in two days as promised and AGAIN it is not completed. We have been more than patient, but the continual lies and lack of any type of actual mechanical service to my vehicle is ridiculous! I would never recommend this company to anyone, and in fact I am telling any and all my friends and family to pass the word to never go here!
