Cookson's Transmission City

I have used Cookson's for over 20 years to rebuild manual transmissions for our shop on a sublet basis. They are always quick, reasonably priced, and very thorough in their repairs. I wish all vendors we deal with were as professional and trustworthy as Cookson's.

Quick nd quality work. Great hospitality nd customer service. Fair price. They can do most anything on most any car or truck.

Preface to the review: RUDE WORKERS, NEGLIGENT, SLOWER THAN MY GREAT GRANDMOTHERS' TYPING ABILITIES. OVERPRICED. MAGICALLY FIND NEW ISSUES WRONG WITH YOUR CAR. This place is terrible. I wouldn't recommend this place to Satan if his car broke down, that's how much I absolutely despise this place. I literally have no idea how a business like this has lasted for so long. To START the complaint, the main guy Tommy has a habit of interrupting you while you speak. I'm confident he finds great joy in interrupting you. We've taken my car here for this one single transmission fix a total of five times over a span of a month and a half. I haven't been able to work or go to the grocery store or even take my kids to the park because of the month and a half this has been going on, Cookson's has had th

I had a bad experience here. Took my car to them because it had transmission problems. Was told they'd look at it and get back to me that same day. Didn't hear anything until I called the next day. Then over the phone they told me it would cost $1,200 dollars to fix my car. A few days later they call me and start listing a bunch of extra problems and stuff they had to "fix". They said it would cost $4,500 dollars at this point. I had taken it to another mechanic previously and I knew all the stuff they were saying was extra. Long story short they gave me one price and then once they had taken the transmission out of my car and pulled it apart they give me a price that's almost 4× more than the original quote. I don't expect stuff to be done for free and I understand quotes don't always m

If I can save one person from suffering the agony of this place mission accomplished. THEY ARE CROOKS DEALING WITH THIS PLACE WAS A VERY BAD DECISION. I was told by Tommy that I would be charged $600 to rebuild and install my 2speed Power Glide old GM transmission. After I left my car I received a call from Tommy stating that it would be $1700 to repair my car. (More than the cost of a new high performance 2speed power glide) When I complained he told me I can come pick it up in pieces and I owed him $500. Reluctantly I agreed to let them work on my car. Less than 2500 miles later my transmission went out car wouldn’t move. They won’t fix it. CROOKS
