Gladstone Auto Repair

Friendly and willing to listen to the customer to understand the problem. Was able to suggest a new approach to fixing a persistent leaky seal and rear end vibration. Ask for Ken or Damon. They will get you headed in the right direction. Also I have found it helps to do as much research on your transmission/driveline symptoms so they can pinpoint the problem and apply the fix in less time. Overall I had a good experience. Vibration is gone and time will tell if the leak is gone for good.

The people at Cottman treated me like I had been a loyal customer for years! They are kind, honest and concerned people...hard to find in the car business! They will be my "go-to-guys" from now on! Thanks all!!

Great place!!! I've shopped around and this is my Top~Pick

I was having a problem with my car. It was leaking power steering fluid. A car dealership wanted $3,000 it repair it. I took it to Cottman and they took care of me for significantly less money and I have had no further problems! Thank you Cottman for a job well done and you have gained a new client as well. I will be sure to tell others of the great service I received! It is a nice clean shop too.

WOW The guys at Cottman are the best. They checked my problem, which turned out to be very minor. So they fixed with no charge. Thanks again guys.

I purchased a vehicle at an auction and brang it Cottman to have Tranny evaluated as it was shifting hard and RPM's were very high prior to shift. I took the vehicle to another local shop that told me to REPLACE the TRANSMISSION and quoted me a 2K price. Kevin at Cottman was awesome to work with, HONEST and friendly. He told me the vehicle was majorly down on automatic transmission fluid, and filled it up for me. He drove the car 3 times, and spent 30 min in the shop making sure I had no leaks and car was shifting properly. Then he charged me $20 bucks. I paid him $50 because I was so happy to have car running right and I was so happy that I was not being victimized again like previous shop! If you want an honest, reasonable, friendly place to do business......you just found one!! Customer for ever!!

I'm very impressed they rebuilt my transmission of my 06 explorer and its feels like new! They gave me a free oil change and when the extra mile in detecting my problem with the abs and fix it with a fair price. They are very friendly even offer me a ride home and a test drive to make sure i was satisfied!

Great Service Great Service

A couple months ago I took my wife's Saturn in to Cottman's Gladstone, MO. and told them how her transmission was acting. They took it for a drive and came back and inspected things and told me what I needed, which was not a new transmission. Since I live close to them, they even took me home while they fixed her car as good as new..again. Then they called and came back and picked me up and brought me back to their business to get her car. Tell me - when was the last time you have gotten service like that? Not too often, for sure. I recommend them to anyone -anytime- all the time. They even partner with Harvesters Community Food Network as well as providing great car care. What more could you ask for? Thanks again Cottman's of Gladstone, Missouri. You guys are righteous. P.S. I sold my Harley too guys....

I contacted Cottman to get an alternative quote on a clutch repair for a Mustang. The quote we received from the dealer seemed way too high, so after seeing the reviews of Cottman Transmission in Gladstone I decided to give them a call. They were instantly helpful on the phone, provided a quote that was half as much as the dealer, and with my permission went over with a tow truck to get the car. They confirmed the quote and actually got the work done the same day. I am very impressed with their customer service.
