Had an issue arise on my car and originally went to Firestone but they referred me to go here as “it will be cheaper” that way. Jeff (i think) helped me out right away the same day and fixed my flex pipe in 30mins! I was hesitant to go to a shop because I feel I get ripped off in a way when I go to one and they typically say theres “alot” of problems and face some sexism. Jeff was great, very kind, and his prices are very affordable and cheap! Highly recommend!! :)

Amazing company and fast work. I called a little over 1 hour before they closed on a Friday... Said no problem get here when you can, I literally ran out of gas pulling into the parking lot to get there before they closed. Gave me a gallon of gas & fixed my muffler in a few min. Best price I found all week. Highly recommended them 100%

Finally, a local business that does great work at a great price! I have been going here for years for exhaust and brakes issues on multiple cars. Jeff does a great job! When it's something simple, he tells you and doesn't overcharge you. This business is a true gem. I trust Jeff (and now also his son) to work on all my cars.

It's a small shop. The guys were friendly and very helpful. Jeff took me to the shop and explained what needed repair. They were able to get the part right away and had me back on the road in a couple hours.

Great place, reasonable prices, nice staff. Had my breaks go soft on my car, discovered that I need my rear breaks completely replaced. They gave me a quote and how long it would take. Called me up an hour early to say the job was done. Will definitely go back for any break repair.

I had an appointment for 2:00 pm, but was a half hour early. They got me in right away and completed my work much quicker than I expected. They were friendly, courteous and very professional. Their fee for the service work was also very reasonable. I highly recommend them for your automotive needs.

I'm sure they're competent and do good work. The customer service needs some attention. I called to discuss options for an exhaust repair on one of my vehicles. I knew I could replace the full cat system to OEM spec for a couple thousand plus labor PER SIDE. I wanted to look into catless downpipe options, so that I wouldn't be spending most of the value of the car just to fix a rattle. The gentleman I spoke with, while knowledgeable about exhaust systems, barely let me get a word in edgewise to explain my request. Unfortunately it went downhill from there as he took a condescending tone in telling me all the things I already knew about my car. Yes, I was already aware that changes to the catalytic converters will affect the ECU's sensors. This is why I would also be hiring a specialist to tune my ECU accordingly and dyno test the car. This has been done with the VQ platform since it came out 27 years ago. It's not new or weird or unheard of to make this specific mod to this specific engine. Here's what he said, to the best of my recollection: "Once you start changing those parameters, you're just beginning to make stupid decisions for the engine." When he said to me that it was a "stupid" decision to pursue anything other than the full OEM spec cat replacement option, that was the moment he lost my business. That's not how you talk to customers, and he should have the situational awareness to realize when the one he's speaking with already knows what they want. Had he been more polite, the conversation would have gotten far enough for me to mention that I also wanted some brake service done, irrespective of my decision on the exhaust. But now I'm not really interested in getting my exhaust OR brakes worked on at this business. I have no reason to doubt that they would have done good quality work, but they didn't give me the chance to find out for sure by hiring them. Hopefully my experience serves as an opportunity for them to improve their customer service.

My 1st experience was a good one. I went to them based off of existing reviews and they lived up to their scores. I was able to get my car in right away and they were flexible when I had to push back drop off. They got back to me really quickly after I dropped off my car. They were professional and personable and the final cost of my brake work and oil change came in just under their original estimate - An estimate which was within the range I had expected. Their assessment of my situation was exactly what I had expected as well. They didn't try to add to my automotive misery or upsell me, which was refeshing, welcome and appreciated. Turn around time was good too; faster than I expected. Next day service, even with having to source parts. Very pleased with my experience and I'll be back for future maintainance and with my family's vehicles as well.
