Velasquez & Sons Muffler Shop

Honest people! I went in with a loud «rattling» noise from underneath my truck. They pulled my truck in and had it for about 20 minutes. When they pulled it out, they said they tightened up a few things, and charged me nothing. How often does that happen! They just earned my future business.

Had a problem with my exhaust leaking at the location of a heat shield, they removed the shield cut a section of the pipe out and welded a new piece in. It took a whole 35 minutes these guys are great and the price was great.

Superior customer service. They were very busy but took me in right away. Prices are extremely affordable. Mechanics are top notch. I will visit here again.

Went there a few days ago and was told that they needed to order 2 bolts with springs to tighten up front exhaust pipe. Parts were not on hand so they said they would call me when parts come in. When I called back after a few days they lost any record of me and asked if I could come in. This time someone else says car needs a new pipe to be installed. I reluctantly said ok and had to wait an hour and half for installation. After driving down road I hear a different noise coming from area of repair. I will have my new mechanic take a look at it and see if I need to take back to Velasquez

They took me back into the shop to show me what was wrong with my car, instead of just letting me take their word for it and charging me up the butt for things i didnt understand. They then gave me a quote, showing the cost/​labor in their handy iPhone app. I visually saw what was wrong and visually saw the cost of everything and I feel like that made a big difference in feeling «safe» with shelling out the money. They gave me a time and I told them I’d be back in a couple of hours to call.
Price wise I paid around $ 500 for what other places gave me $ 1500 quotes for. I hear that these mufflers and parts are refurbished and pressure washed to look new so aren’t necessaryily the best quality, but on my 2001 nissan with 180,000 with I don’t know how much life in her, these where perfect to make the rest of her life comfortable.
Customer service was good, everyone was friendly and there was no beating around the bush like most places. Overall I had a good experience and would recomend.

I was impressed by the price as the other people are. Now an year later when the flex pipe and the muffler have crapped out I’m reconsidering the cost efficiency of the deal. I was assured that the muffler would be an good bargain with the «lifetime warranty» — ha, come and ask for it when that cheapo rotten a year later. You have to pay again to have a new one installed. And again next year. And for that and any other repair they have done. Something is wrong with this place.
Alternative? — go to body shop and get your muffler from a reputable manufacturer.

Needed quick and inexpensive weld on a motorcycle exhaust. Diagnosed, consulted, welded, and returned in under 15 minutes. Now that’s service.

These guys are awesome. This is our 4^th or 5^th time doing business with Valezquez, so this review is overdue. Anyway, we’ve gotten our brakes replaced here a few times and the service is always fast and fairly priced. We purchased our own brake pads and Valezquez only charged us $ 50 to resurface and install them. They’re very efficient, so we never have to wait longer than an hour. We have a Honda Accord and the dealership was going to charge us $ 289.

I hate taking my car to the shop. .So, when I find a place that I trust, I stick with them. Velasquez has always been honest and done good work. I’ve used them for everything from A/​C compressors to suspension, brakes, and water pump work. They’ve pleasantly surprised me a few times by pointing out that a less expensive repair was needed than I initially thought. I like their integrity and they have earned my trust and loyalty as a customer.

Best place I’ve been to for mufflers and prices are awesome!

I went to Merlin’s to get a quote for 2 straight pipes welded in to fix an exhaust leak. They quoted me 2.5 — 3 hours, and $ 300. It took an hour wait to get me that quote.
I then went to Velasquez Muffler, and they told me it would only take 30 min and $ 80 to do the same thing! Within 40 minutes of pulling into the parking lot, it was all done, and my loud exhaust leak was gone! It turns out that for the $ 300 that Merlin’s quoted me for a patch job, these guys would have installed a full performance exhaust system.
I highly recommend this place, and I’m definitely referring all my friend and family to this place for exhaust work.

I had a muffler and catalytic converter installed on my car. The converter came with a warranty. With less than a year into the warranty, the converter starting rattling so I went back and asked them to replace it. They refused saying they would only replace it if my Check Engine light came on. I pointed out that it is defective because it makes all this noise and didn’t initially, but they still refused. Instead they wanted to remove the factory provided heat shield. I declined that option since the heat shield would not come on the part if it wasn’t required/​recommended. No companies add extra parts to things these days just for fun. In summary, this is a case of «you get what you pay for.» Sure this place is cheap, but they sell cheap products and they don’t stand behind them. I don’t recommend this place to anyone.

I was in town visiting when all of the sudden my muffler got REALLY loud. I got online to see who was open on a Sunday and read a few reviews. I needed to get my catalytic converter replaced on my 2000 Honda Accord. They took me right away. Lifted my car and showed me what needed attention. I was there about 20 minutes total. Not bad! After taxes it cost me just over $ 160. I am giving a 4 out of 5 b/​c they could be a bit more honest about their pricing up front. All their advertising shows low pricing but does not factor labor although I would still recommend them. If you can try to call ahead so you know what you’re getting into as far as pricing goes.

Just went back to see if they could weld a rusty exhaust pipe on a friends ATV and Oswaldo did it in 15 minutes for $ 15! I didn’t even have to unload it off of the bed of my pickup. Keep up the good work Velazquez & Sons

I’ve been here for exhaust system installs on two cars. I bought in my own new unit. They knew what to do right out of the box and the entire installation took less than 15 minutes. Previous to this, I waited in line for only 10 minutes for my car to be next to go into the garage.
They also had about half a dozen other customers ahead of me. This is just an idea of how quick and efficient they are!
