Mike and his crew of amazing professionals at John the Muffler Man are the best auto techs on the planet with the best customer service i've ever encountered anywhere. I had a immensely stressful issue with the catalytic converters on my 2012 Dodge Durango and after a nightmare of an experience with another auto shop, the guys at JTMM took full ownership of the problem, diagnosed it, made professionally informed decisions about what work was needed, communicated those decisions to me clearly, and after helping me fight thru a litany of warranty issues and such, performed the necessary work on my truck the right way. After almost a year of dealing with other far less accomodating and far less customer friendly shops (and driving a truck that felt and sounded like it was falling apart), I drove my JTMM-repaired truck off their lot and it literally felt and sounded like i was driving a brand new vehicle. Their professionalism and top-shelf, premium quality work and service is absolutely second to none. John the Muffler Man has a strong rep in Milwaukee and they back it up 100%! Thank you Mike and company! Best. Auto shop. Ever. read more

I had a problem with my exhaust system and through a referral, I went to John's. there are no appointments; it's first come, first served. They open at 8 am, and I got there about 7:20. Lo and behold, I was 3rd in line. I joked around with the 2 guys in front of me to pass the time, and they were long-time repeat customers. Shortly after 8, the place was slammed, so get there early. But now I know why! For a white collar guy like myself that doesn't know a lot about cars, these guys are the ultimate. They inspect your car, tell you the problem and tell you the cost before they swing the first wrench. When they are finished, they show you the work they did. As far as cost; UNBELIEVABLE! These guys are so reasonable, it's unreal. I could not have had a better experience and walked out with about $800 that I did not spend had I gone with the estimate I received from a chain muffler shop. I am abig fan and will be a repeat customer because I am driving an 18 year-old car with 195K miles on it. read more

Had an issue with my power steering lines that were leaking. Took my truck to a different mechanic and they told me the rubber line was leaking and they fixed it, it was $250 which was expensive but I had them fix it anyway. A day later I seen it was still leaking so I took it back and they looked at it and told me the hard lines were now leaking and it would cost $900! So I waited a couple of weeks and I took it to John The Muffler Man early on a Monday, told them the problem and they told me it would be $350 dollars so about 3 hours later my hard lines were replaced and I was driving home with no leaks! The guys at John The Muffler Man are great!their friendly, honest and respectful and they do good work. If you don't want to get ripped off go to John The Muffler Man. read more

These guys are awesome! They are some of the nicest guys and they are also fantastic mechanics. Over the past year, they have saved me a lot of time and money. Most recently, the dealer quoted me $7000+ to replace my entire exhaust, oxygen sensors, and a corroded fuel filler neck. The guys at John The Muffler Man said that my exhaust was actually okay and all that needed to be replaced were both O2 sensors and the fuel filler neck. I supplied the fuel filler neck myself because it was hard to find, but they were able to get everything fixed for under $800 including labor. Not to mention the labor took a lot longer than anticipated because of all the rust and they didn't charge me extra. Bottom line, this is a place you can trust and feel good about taking your car to. read more

I have been taking my vehicles to John the Muffler Man for a few years now and I have always been very satisfied. The entire staff is professional and fair. They tell you exactly the issue your vehicle is having and the price has always been lower than other places. I drive 30 minutes to have my vehicles serviced here. My latest visit was to have a muffler kit installed. Trevor is exceptional at his work and takes a lot of pride in getting it perfect. Mike K. and the rest of the group are the mechanics I go to for all of my work. read more

We have been customers of John The Muffler Man for many years. We recently had both of our cars serviced. It was new tires for our Subaru and exhaust repair for our Saturn. Everyone at John The Muffler Man is great to deal with, especially Mike, Trevor, and Peter. We value their advice and service when one of our cars needs attention. We will continue to bring our cars to John's. Grant and Betty, Wauwatosa P.S. They even cleaned all of the glass on our Saturn station wagon after the exhaust work was completed! read more

This was my first time at John the Muffler Man to have a new tires put on my crossover. I had a fantastic experience. Everyone was knowledgeable and very friendly and the service was very quick. I had concerns with my rear brakes showing wear, but they let me know (and showed me) that I had plenty of pad remaining on the rear brakes. They are very trust worthy and have the best interest of their customers in mind. I will be giving them my future business! read more

These guys are top notch in customer interactions and service. This place works like a well oiled machine. I got there at open and Mike was able to get to my truck in right away. The service tech Trevor let me know exactly what was up and what my options were. The turnaround was super fast and the price was way lower than I was bracing myself for. Best customer experience I could have possibly hoped for! read more

The catalytic converter on my volvo was falling off because of rust. The only replacement part my mechanic was able to find cost $1,400. I brought the car to John the Muffler Man and they were able to weld the converter back together for only $80. Enough said! When I got the car back, it was purring like it was brand new. I recommend these guys for any repair work you need. read more

Took SUV to dealership to get estimate on repair of driver's seat frame. Paid $75 and waited over 2 hours to get estimate of $700 to replace frame--$250 for frame and up to $450 for labor. Took vehicle to John the Muffler Man for second estimate. Fixed break in frame on the spot for $30. Your read it correctly, $700 versus $30. read more

First time there. Not a formal fancy place but mechanics that can relate with my level of knowledge. Fair prices (less than many places) with quality parts and work. Parts needed to be ordered which added a day for repairs but for me that was not a problem. Stan was my mechanic and did an excellent job! read more

I recently had my timing belt and water pump changed, I got in the next day and the bill was substantially below their competition. Also, when the called me with a price, that was what they actually charged me, there were no other fees tacked on. read more

Do not expect gigantic saltwater aquariums, playstations or free breakfast. No nonsense, one of the best mechanic experiences I ever had. Had to wait for two hours before they started working on my car, but I didn't mind. 5 starts. read more

I needed an emissions test and Google brought them up in my search, but they DO NOT do emissions testing. They did fix my exhaust leak and right quickly too! Price was as I expected. Good job. But no emissions testing. read more
