The folks here were able to adapt a 135i muffler on my BMW 325i e90. I wanted a little more sound that wasn't obnoxious. Two other shops didn't want to take on this job because it was too custom, but this shop welcomed the challenge. They did a great job with the welds, custom brackets, and positioning to make this look oem +. Pricing was fair too.

I had the catalytic converter of my Toyota Highlander stolen from Westin LAX' parking lot during a recent road trip from the Bay Area to So Cal. My insurance agent got in touch with Walter @ Custom Muffler and Brakes who agreed to take the car in. I was worried that the converter won't be available I'd have to extend my trip or fly back later for the car. But Walter and his team came to the rescue. He found an original part through his network and fixed the car in less than 36hrs and I was on my way back to SF as planned! Walter is a true professional, spoke courteously, was empathetic to my situation and went the extra mile to fix the problem. Walter's niece went out of the way to pick up the part from the supplier. I highly recommend this shop for anybody with muffler/ brake issues... you will receive 5 star service!

I visited this muffler shop and was extremely impressed with the service I received. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and they were able to meet my need quickly and efficiently. The prices were also very reasonable, and I appreciated that they didn't try to upsell me on any unnecessary services. Overall, I would highly recommend this muffler shop to anyone in need of muffler repairs or replacements. They truly went above and beyond to ensure my satisfaction, and I will definitely be returning for any future muffler needs. Ask for Fernando and Hansel! They get the job DONE! Beyond satisfied with their work! Quede muy impresionado con el servicio que recibí. El personal era amable y estaba bien informado, y pudieron satisfacer mis necesidades de forma rápida y eficiente. Los precios también eran muy razonables, y aprecié que no intentaran venderme más en ningún servicio innecesario. En general, recomendaría encarecidamente esta tienda de silenciadores a cualquiera que necesite reparaciones o reemplazos de silenciadores. Realmente hicieron todo lo posible para asegurar mi satisfacción, y definitivamente volveré para cualquier necesidad futura. Pregunta por Fernando y Hansel. Ellos hacen el TRABAJO! Más que satisfecho con su trabajo.

Several quotes on my 2014 CLS for straight pipe including an x and this was by far the best deal for work done, did take a but longer than we were told at first but work was done very well and very happy with the results , they also had worked on my chrysler 300c some time ago and that was also a great deal for the work done

Quick turn around, friendly and I am so glad to have chosen these guys to work on my baby. I had been looking for the right shop for ages and now I found it. Thanks Walter, Ignacio, Jancel, Fernando and Diana, I could not be more happy with everyones hard work. Highly recommend -Xavier

As a ex mechanic I 100% regret NOT doing the work myself and taking it to this shop! - the absolute worst experience ever! Came in for catalytic converter and a check engine. THEY Upsold a water pump then a. Timing chain, fine I agreed the car had 135,000 miles Fast forward... not even a day later.. car check engine light still on and now saying it's the other cat, the car shuts off with low oil pressure, clearly the timing chain wasn't done correctly.. I brought it back several times to correct and they could never fix the Idle issue where it just dies at idle.. the guy said it's an old car just buy a new one lol after I spent 5000!!! Seriously?? Car still isn't right 5000 later and I just don't know if I can go back they said they wiling to do the cat for a discount but I cant swallow dumping more money on top of Broken promises and negligence! Stay away from this shop and tell your family to keep their hard earned money and take it elsewhere! Not only is car not fixed I'm down 5000! What a B! read more

I've been happy with this place in the past for doing a good job and fixing what I needed to get fix. This time I don't think they spent much time fixing my problem but finding things that may need replacing so in the end my problem was not fixed but the items they fixed were done well. After spending over $1000 my problem is still there and the explanation was he misunderstood me. Hard to give a 3 star when my problem didn't get fixed. read more

I needed an Oxygen Senor removed from a 2004 Cadillac SRX. I already figured out which sensor was bad and just needed someone that had the tools to remove it. The car is 20 years old and that was the only sensor not replaced so it was probably going to be stuck. I went to this place and Walter said he could do it and replace it within the next hour. His price was very reasonable and no complaints about me bringing in the part. Lots of shops like to buy their own parts and markup the part. Walter did not mind and told me I could wait in the waiting room. Sure enough the O2 Sensor was stuck but being a repair and muffler shop he knew all the tricks. He got it off and I was on my way within an hour. This place does all mechanical repairs and not just muffler and brakes. They were working on quite a few cars which is a good sign. Walter is very polite and had great customer service. Give this place a try. It is truly a 5 star repair shop. Thanks again for an excellent job and my check engine light is no longer coming on. read more

I was charge $1130.28 for a break job as well as, transmission, brake, and steering wheel fluid change. I came here because of the reviews but after I checked how much this shop charge me for labor alone ($640) I completely felt ripped off. I don't drive a fancy luxy car either, I own a 2010 HONDA CIVIC. It's messed up how they basically ripped me off when I came in to their shop in good faith. Never again. Im not a mechanic expert, but I know what it feels like to get ripped off. I would avoid this shop if I were you. read more

I don't usually leave reviews, but had such a great experience at Custom Muffler and Brakes, that I wanted to spread the word. Walter is an honest guy who actually shows you what's wrong with your car. I took my daughter's 2004 Dodge Durango in for a new muffler and some issues with the suspension. He showed me all the broken parts that he needed to replace before doing the work. He finished when he said he would and the prices were reasonable. He also includes a one year warranty on the work. I'm so glad I found them, they're keepers! read more

Miguel and his team were incredibly thorough, honest, and professional from the start. I originally came in for a check engine light and rough driving issues, but during their inspection, they found additional problems that had been missed -- including failed suspension work and issues related to a previous oil leak repair. Miguel took the time to explain everything clearly, provided before and after photos, and even showed me the actual parts so I could fully understand what was going on. There was also a female mechanic there (I believe she may be one of the owners), and I absolutely loved her. She was knowledgeable, direct, and helped confirm concerns I had about previous repairs. You can tell they genuinely care about doing things the right way instead of just taking your money. What I appreciated most was the honesty. They didn't try to upsell me or pressure me -- they gave me real information and helped me make the best decision for my car. Finding a trustworthy mechanic is hard, and this shop gave me peace of mind. I'll definitely be coming back and recommending them to others.

I came in to have a flat tire repaired and left with a scratch on my rim. The technician claimed…read morethe scratch was already there, but I know it wasn't--my vehicle had just been inspected at another tire shop and the rim was in perfect condition. I chose this shop because they appeared professional, but that was far from my experience. They refused to take accountability for the damage and would not offer to cover the repair. When I asked to speak with a supervisor, I was told there was no way their employees caused it. Overall, this business was unprofessional and disappointing. - Replying to your response: The video you showed me when I was there, you could not get a clear view because the technician was in the way.

He gave us a very straightforward, no-nonsense estimate and only recommended the work he actually felt was necessary. The price was fair, and that honesty is what made us decide to go with him. There were definitely some challenges along the way, especially with permits in our city. Apparently it is much tougher than others when it comes to permits, and it ended up requiring a lot more paperwork and extra effort than he expected. Even with all that, Cyrus stuck to his original quote and never tried to charge us more, which we really appreciated. Jaime and Jesus handled the installation of the air handler, ductwork, and heat pump. They worked hard, were very respectful of our home, kept things clean, and honestly were much quieter doing the work than I expected considering all the cutting and installation involved.

I rent cars for a living and always bring all my cars here. They take care of my cars and get me back on the road fairly quickly. The pricing is fair and you get good quality work. They show me exactly what my cars need and explain it in a way I am able to understand which I appreciate as I know very little about the mechanics of a car. It's important to note that their waiting area is a lot cleaner and more comfortable than other shops I've been to. All in all it's a good shop where the client comes first that's why I've been coming here for years and trust them with my cars. read more

Something you need to know as an owner of a vehicle is, not only putting gas and driving but get regular chek ups to mantain your car in good condition,this is one of the advises I got at this place.Oil change service does not include only the oil and filter like in other places but an inspection of any oil leak. With the alignment, you get suspension inspection, not sure what you need? Visit Walter or Ignacio for a general inspection and you will become a regular customer as I did!! read more
