Discount Muffler Brakes and A/C, Inc.

This company has turned sour. Now very dishonest. repairing things that don’t need repairing charging you then giving you the vehicle back and still not working. And calling the customer a liar. STAY AWAY.

Took my civic here to get an exhaust I has previously purchased installed. They quoted me $ 55-​$ 105 on the phone without even seeing the car. Took it in without an appointment and they had it done within an hour. There was an issue with the length, and they fabricated a piece of piping from my old exhaust and welded it to the new piping. I checked the weld and rest of the work when I got home and it’s among the best I have seen. Ended up only costing me $ 60 even with the unexpected setbacks. Brian explained two routes we could have taken and saved me some money with his honesty. I highly recommend this place!

They did a good job but I was waiting for almost 3 hours just to get a muffler delete. Good work but poor service the lady was also giving me attitude when I was being extremely kind. And the price was kinda high compared to all the other estimates I got I chose this place thinking it would be done quick but they told me 45 min I came back in an hour and then they said it was gonna be another 45 min when it actually ended up being 2 more hours… For just a muffler delete?

They replaced the muffler and tail pipe in my truck for a very reasonable price, and did a great job. I was so pleased with the service that I took the truck back to have them look at an oil leak that has been a problem for years. I would recommend this shop to anyone. Honest and fast, each of my issues were looked at promptly.

Been taking both my personal and business vehicles to Brian for 10 years always has done a good job very good at explaining options that are available and work is always done on time and for what he quoted hard to find a good honest mechanic he’s been in business for many years for a reason he values his customers and does what he says he’s going to do if you’re looking for a good mechanic this is the place

They took great care of my car. The exhaust sounds amazing and even performs a hell of a lot better

Took my small RV in for a new muffler as the old one scrapes on everything since it sits low and is chocked full of holes because of this. These guys gave me a very reasonable quote and offered to start the work immediately. In less than two hours we were on the road again. Final cost was much lower than original quote. Work looks great and they even raised everything so I have better clearance now.

Been here several times. Always honest, upfront and reasonable. Dropped in without an appointment and they had the problem diagnosed and repaired in no time. These guys rock!

To me, the most honest place in town you will find. If you talk to Brian, he will take a look at your vehicle and give you an honest opinion on what needs to be fixed and what does not. Let me expand.
IF you have issues with your vehicle, he will let you know honestly what needs to be addressed immediately, what may need to eventually be addressed but is not a high priority right now and what does not.
My truck was taken to another place for an oil change and part of their process is to pull your tires and do a complete inspection of your vehicel. I was told my tie rod ends were loose and in need of repair along with some other minor items.
I brought my truck here to get new shocks put on and this is when I was told that my vehicle did not need tie rod ends that everything underneath was fine and that an alignment was never done on my vehicle even though a tire place sells this service to you with the tires and pretends to do it…
I will NEVER take my vehicle anywhere else but here and I will always not only deal with Brian, but do everything I can to refer people and support him. This is a place of quality in service and friendship.
You want honesty in this town, take your vehicle here…

Honest folks. Highly recommend. Been here a few times and they always provide quality service. No need to shop around.

I received the diagnostic for my check engine light elsewhere and the initial quote I got was $ 500+, but they were able to take care of it for me for less than $ 250. I guess there are two ways to replace a catalytic convertor and going with an exhaust/​muffler shop is the cheaper way to go. I wasn’t able to make it out here for the diagnostic check, but when I called they relayed that they would do the check for free and if it took longer than an hour to figure out… then they would charge a fee. Went here on a Saturday morning when they opened and I was in and out of the shop in less than 1.5 hours =)

Feeling lazy I took my truck in last week to have some brake lines replaced and the axle seals replaced. I’ve had the truck for 7 years and I’ve never let anyone else touch it. The cynic in me fully expected some sort of disaster to occur.
Low and behold everything was done right. No leaks, no squeaks and no BS. I talked with Brian. He didn’t try to up sell me on anything and they finished the job when they said they would. Those two things combined are a rare combination these days.
Their shop rate is on the high side at $ 98 but they didn’t take their sweet time doing the work so I felt like the overall cost was still reasonable.
Thanks!

This place is very honest and professional. It’s very hard to find a mechanic shop that tells it to you straight. I would highly recommend and you will be treated right.

These guys are awesome. I had just come out here in August and needed a smog check but there was a leak in my exhaust system, I went to Purrfect auto which wanted to charge me $ 700, I came away from her and the work with materials was $ 120. They are honest and fast.

I was referred them by Professional Brakes.
They did an amazing job at an affordable price. Very professional, courteous and timely. I’ll definitely recommend them and the company that referred me anytime!

I needed to have a resonator welded onto my stock midpipe to reduce rasp created from a new header installed onto my car. I called a few places to get quotes but wasn’t too happy with any of them. They all wanted way too much for a simple job and wanted a few hours to complete it. I called here and the price they gave me was just perfect. I asked how long it would take and they said less than an hour and that I could be seen that day. So I drove down there and they remembered talking to me on the phone. The person doing the work had me go look at my car with him because the resonator barely fit but said he would be able to custom fit it so I told him to do it. 40 minutes later he was done and it was done perfectly. They know exactly what they are doing and their prices can’t be beat.

This place is an overpriced joke. I had work done here about 3 weeks ago when my regular mechanic was unable to check some things out for me due to being closed that day. I had to drive out of state so I was pretty much stuck. I went here on a recommendation and ended up having to take out a loan to get my car fixed for $ 830+. New brakes in the front and a new radiator. Fine, whatever. 3 weeks later after being back in Vegas one of my radiator hoses sporadically just ruptures and I had smoke and steam firing out of my hood. Ok, fine. I take it back to this place seeing they JUST worked on my cooling system and they tell me, «Oh hey, yeah its going to be $ 136 to replace the hose.» Oh really? You just replaced my entire radiator and you’re going to tell me that the mechanic working on this didn’t notice that the integrity of the hose was compromised when pulling it out and putting it back on? Well, I don’t buy it. Then when I said that the $ 98 an hour labor rate was relatively steep from what I’m use to paying they just shrugged their shoulders at me. I would have settled for at least waving the labor charge and just paying for the hose seeing they were right there in the same area of my car 3 weeks prior, but no. They charged for those, plus $ 98 for labor, plus another $ 26 for coolant. I guess keeping customers isn’t necessarily a priority here. So be it. Low and behold I took it back to my trusted mechanic and wow $ 76. Price of the hose, lower labor and $ 12 for coolant, surprise surprise. I know when I’m getting ripped off and I know a lack of customer service when I see it. Many of us are struggling in this economy to get things taken care of, we don’t need to be overcharged and have people not stand behind what they do to squeeze a few extra bucks out of us. These guys might be honest to an extent, but they sure as hell aren’t even close to being «discount» anything, they might want to change their name to something more fitting of that. I will never go back to this place nor will I ever recommend it to anyone I know. What a waste of a day. Instead of trying to explain to you that what you did was wrong, I decided to bite my tongue. I’m sick of constantly trying to explain to people what proper business ethics should entail. Enjoy your Unilocal review.

This place does quality and fast work.
My 2001 Toyota has had a lot of problems with the exhaust system. Last time I went in for a smog test, it couldn’t pass because the catalytic converters were failing. I took the car into my regular mechanic, but they don’t handle exhaust work, so they recommended I head over to Discount Muffler. Good call.
From the moment I brought the car in, the guys at Discount Muffler worked to find the best solution to fixing the car. And they know that «best» doesn’t always mean most expensive. They recommended that I try only replacing one of the catalytic converters and see if the car would pass the smog test. They could have told me to spend more money right off the bat, but they heard me when I said I wanted a cheaper solution since I only want to keep the car for 2 – 3 more years.
I’ll keep bringing my car back here because I trust a mechanic when they offer multiple solutions to a problem – a way to do it on the cheap and a way to make the repair last long-​term. It means these guys are trustworthy. Add in the fact that they do good work too and it’s a great find for car repair in the valley

Fast service and honest work. Didn’t try and sell me on more than I needed, and they could have considering what the problem was. I would certainly bring my car here again. Open on Saturdays, which was a huge plus in my situation, since I really needed my car back. Great work!

Honest technicians… Fast service… I will definitely be coming back!
