Rom is a crook. I bought a car off of him in January- his moms car- that had high mileage but he said he had replaced the engine an the new engine only 60k on it. Generally I could be wary about purchasing a used car in the way but he was a "friend of my boyfriends" so I figured he was trustworthy. I stressed to him that I needed something really reliable for maybe a year or so since as a single female living far away from home or friends and without triple a, breaking down somewhere is a very scary process an could leave me... read more

I had a horrible experience at this shop. I left my car one morning for a simple resonator replacement. I picked it up at the shop's closing time and noticed that there's something weird with it. The car radio anti theft system was locked, but I ignored it. Later I figured out that my seat adjustment doesn't work. I looked underneath the seat to find a piece (a bar) that connects the power motor with the seat broken! This bar sits right under the seat, and apparently without noticing that the seat is a power seat, someone at... read more

Great Service – Even though the high amount of rust / corrosion on the bottom of my van (it spent its first 15 years in Ohio) turned fixing the exhaust into a two day job, the guys at Economy Muffler stuck with the original quote. They were really friendly and courteous throughout. I wouldn

Horrible business practices – Avoid this place at all costs!!!!!!!! I needed body work done on my car and one of the workers there reffered me to a gentleman that works in coordination with their business on their property. Had to bring the car back four times because the paint job was aweful. They refused to refund my money and now I'm left to take my business elsewhere and spend even more money to get the car looking the way it was promised. Buyer beware.

worst shop ever – I went in to get new brake pads and have my rotors refinished asking them if they could get it done properly by that evening because I had to drive to LA to take the GRE exam. I waited for 5 hours in the shop only to be told that they had the wrong brake pads. During the brake refinishing, I also went out to take a look and noticed they stopped in the middle of the process to change the bushing that held the rotor in place. They were carving the rotor with the wrong bushing! So I drove to LA with my old bra... read more

Awesome work! – Nice mechanics who care, and will go the extra mile to help you out. They base their work off your trust, not your wallet. Which in the end makes me happy to take my car over there for service and am completely confident in referring my friends to Economy Muffler and Brake.

Amazing Customer Service – These guys are fabulous. I took my car to them after taking it to the dealer for an oil change. The dealer called me back and quoted almost as much as the car was worth to fix a bunch of super urgent problems. I took it to Economy muffler and instantly trusted them. They dropped me off and picked me up since I didn't have any other transportation, and when he dropped me off the guy said "Don't worry, we'll take care of your car." And I knew he would. The kept the car all day and did a very thorough... read more
