Frequently Asked Questions
Is it safe to drive with an exhaust leak?
Driving with a suspected exhaust leak is not recommended. Leaks can allow fumes to get closer to the cabin and can become worse over time. If you think you have a leak, we suggest scheduling an inspection soon so our technicians can evaluate the situation and discuss next steps.
How will you explain my exhaust repair options?
We review our findings in plain language and show you what we can whenever possible. Our service team explains which parts are affected, what your options are, and how each choice may impact safety and long-term reliability. You have time to ask questions before you decide how to move forward.
How long does muffler repair usually take?
Many muffler and basic exhaust repairs can be completed the same day, although timing depends on the specific issue and parts availability. We provide an estimate of how long the work should take when we review your options. If you need to be elsewhere, our shuttle service can often help.
What kind of warranty do you offer on exhaust work?
We offer an industry-leading warranty on qualifying exhaust and muffler repairs. The exact coverage can vary by service, and our team will explain the details that apply to your vehicle before you approve any work. This warranty is one way we show confidence in our workmanship and parts.
Can I get an estimate before you start repairs?
Yes. We perform an inspection first, then prepare a clear written estimate before any repair work begins. You will see what we found, what we recommend, and the associated costs. We do not proceed without your approval, so you stay in control of the decision.
