Car would not go forward or in reverse
Cottman transmission picked up car, ran tests, said transmission had to be rebuilt. Said shell on Camero's are cheap and therefore was one of the problems, told they replaced with a harden steal shell. Told transmission was rebuilt, charged almost $1,800.
Picked car up, it was not shifting right, brought it back, they took the car out and said it shifted fine. Drove the car for a couple of more weeks, took it back, they said to leave it and they would run tests on it.
I was told all the tests came back ok was told the results were on the computer but was told I could not get a print out or even see the results on the computer.
Was told all the mechanics drove the car and they said nothing was wrong with the way it shifted. The exact words they said to me was "I am not saying you are making all this up but there is nothing wrong with the transmission.
Even though my car continued to shift hard and a rattle I continued to drive the car. 4 months after the warranty expired my car made a screeching noise and would not shift out of 1st and had no reverse. Told Cottman, was told they were sorry and would give me a discount if I brought it in.
My theory is "bitten once their fault, bitten twice my fault"
I had someone else repair, found out the shell was broken and also a bolt was stripped when it was rebuilt by Cottman, therfore the rattle I was hearing. My car is now shifting wonderfully and has the pick up it had before the transmission was rebuilt by Cottman Transmission.
Do Not Go to Cottman Transmission EVER.
