There’s a wonderful scene in the movie Doc Hollywood, where Michael J. Fox listens as an older woman explains the floaters she’s seeing. As she’s talking, he carefully removes her glasses, cleans them, and slides them back in place. After a stunned second, she sighs and says, “I’m cured!”
If you’ve been thinking about seeing an ophthalmologist to take care of your night vision problems, maybe you should start by checking your headlights. Foggy headlights are becoming a common condition, and they can drastically reduce your ability to see at night.
One of the reasons this has become so common is because today’s headlights aren’t one piece that you replace, the way they were a few years ago. The lens is part of the car’s body, and it’s plastic, so prolonged exposure to road dirt and pollution can cause it to pit and fog over.
Because it’s so common, there are a number of kits available to resurface the headlight lenses and make them clear again. One thing to remember about those kits is that generally speaking, the aftermarket kits that you see on TV are not going to be as effective or long-lasting as a professional job.
Your local Cottman center may be able to help: Ask them about having your headlights resurfaced to make the lenses clear again. They have access to professional-grade service kits that do a terrific job of resurfacing the headlight lenses, and they add a protective coating that’ll keep them clear for years to come.
So, if you’re having trouble seeing at night, start by checking your headlights. If they’re fogged up, bring your car to your local Cottman center to have them cleaned and resurfaced.
After that, if you’re still having problems seeing at night consult your physician.
The customer service was concerned about the parking area for my vehicle for overnight early bird service.They called me to inform me they were gonna check back with me before any services on my vehicle were done with my approval which, made me comfortable to know they showed responsibility in their work.
Fast, friendly, reliable and fair. I ended up having to get my town & country transmission repaired/replaced & my spark plugs replaced right before Christmas this past year & they said they could do it the next day if I could leave it that day. Well I didn't have a ride home & my other car needed a jump start since we hadn't driven it much. The owner not only offered to drive me home, but also jump start my other car so I could of get my niece from school. If that's not service, I don't know what is. They also ened up doing my 2014 escape transmission the yr b4. They were recommended by a friend & I would recommend them as well.
I purchased a "newly" used vehicle and was concerned about transmission issues and they made sure I was taken care of. The staff was extremely friendly and polite, and not only did they provide me with all the necessary services I needed, they also educated me. I would highly recommend this location.
The service was great. Someone recommended them to me. They took care of the issue I was having with my vehicle with no issues. I’ll be going to them from here on out!
A very satisfied customer
Kevin and his entire staff are the best. I had a brake caliper fail and they took care of very quickly and for a great price. Since then, I had new flare fenders with led lights installed on my Jeep Wrangler. Same great service and value.
I have been taking my vehicles to Cottman for the last year and I have never been disappointed. Kevin is the General Manager and I have known him personally for several years. This is an honest shop with quality work and great, trustworthy employees. Law Enforcement friendly, which is a major plus. It is hard to find a reliable place for vehicles now and days so skip the stress and take your vehicles here.

My experience at Cottman was awesome! The waiting lounge was very clean and looked great. The front desk staff was kind and personable. My wheels got aligned very quickly and they did a great job for an awesome price! The owner is extremely professional and quite handsome as well.
Great customer service!! The staff was very attentive. A issue arose while they were working on my vehicle, and the mechanics diagnosed it and where back on track in no time. What I liked the most was that they kept me in the loop while they tried to find a resolution.
