Francisco and Jesse have been working on my car for years. I was looking for an exhaust actuator so I exchanged my number with him to keep me updated. The next morning, I get a text saying that he found it! This is the type of service that makes me want to keep coming back.

Amazing guy and great work. I brought in my dodge Ram and he greeted me with amazing customer service and installed my new exhaust within an hour and some change. Truck sounds better than ever. I recommend his service for any problems you guys might be experiencing. If I ever need anything else done I ll definitely be coming back here. Thanks jessie for the amazing weld builds as well.

I own a Audi RS5 natural aspirated engine, Jessy dialed that exhaust into such a level, that now I feel like the alpha of my gym when I pull up, every day I go to the gym somebody s running up to my car, saying your car sounds amazing.The thing is he is open to keep trying until you think it s perfect. Exhaust custom work is mainly all he does he s good at his craft. So now I brought a Jaguar I just bought it s a XK 5.0 .Again He dialed The exhaust into such level of perfection again!well, this time I said, I have to share my experiences and write a review. He looks to try to keep the work he does as in expensive as possible, which was a big seller to me

These guys hooked it up last second when no other shop could get the cats I needed for smog. These guys worked to get the cats on a Saturday and on a rainy day to say the least. Installed them and had me going in an hour! Passed smog n everything is right. Highly recommend these gents for their dedication to their client and their work.

I went to Jesse s Mufflers and Brakes to have them correctly install and weld on my M Performance Carbon Fiber tips. I tried the home base job and it didn t work out. They did a great job aligning the tips and inspected my brakes. Super friendly guys and super knowledgeable. 10/10 Recommend.Services: Exhaust, BrakesServices: Exhaust, Brakes

I want to personally say that Jesse's Muffler & Brakes was a overall good experience for me. From the onset, Jesse was personable, caring, and genuine and made sure to involve me throughout the whole process of getting my brakes done. Reasonable. Family-oriented. Honest and Genuine. Inviting. This business is worth your time and you end up leaving with more than you originally thought. Thank you Jesse for being who you are and for overall great conversation and time.

First of all. I met Jesse. Jesse is amazing guy. He took care of me and was very polite and professional. Beside that, he did amazing job on my 2021 Ford Explorer ST. It was fast, It looks like a new from factory exhaust. You would never guess something its done on the exhaust. Great job Jesse! U deserve 5 stars for sure!I did stock muffler delete and upgraded to MAGNAFLOW exhaust. With Red Carbon Fiber Tips. Sounds and looks amazing. Big THANK YOU!Service: Exhaust

If you need any exhaust system job, this is the place. Jesse and his team are experts in the field and will perform a truly professional job. Great prices and turn around time. If you re looking for tips or have any questions they ll guide you with experience based suggestions so you can pay for exactly what you re looking for. I could not be happier with my 65 chevelle after taking it to Jesse s. From the beginning I told him that I wanted something that would sound aggressive but not obnoxious and allow me to have a conversation and enjoy music inside the cabin. Right away he recommended the FM 40 series and their performance is exactly was I was looking for. For some reason I can t add a video of the sound but trust me, it sounds beautiful. See the attached pictures and you ll see the quality and cleanliness of their product.

I came to Jesse s Mufflers and Brakes for a complete exhaust installation on my 1969 Chevelle Super Sport. From the beginning of my experience until I drove off the lot, Jesse was a true professional who shows that he cares about his business.He installed Hedman headers and Flowmaster Super 44 series mufflers with dual exhaust and chrome tips. My car came out perfect and I couldn t be more satisfied.I highly recommend this shop if you want to have your exhaust done right. He is very reasonably priced but the quality of his work is unmatched.

I came in with my 2017 Chevy cruze and was looking for a particular sound, All I can say is I got more than what I wanted! Two great people helping me out and talking with me during the process of my muffler and exhaust, did not highball me and showed me all the welds after, also they demonstrated different options for me and gave me some great conversation! I came in at 11:15 and was out the door at 1:45 with a smile on my face! Definitely recommend them to my friends and will be back!Service: Exhaust

Honestly I felt comfortable for Jesse to work on my vehicle. He knows what he does and knows how to handle his services perfectly I would say. Would go back for more related services from them! He did both my mufflers and mid resonator, did my muffler delete first and I wasn't satisfied yet and recommended to do the resonator delete next. It was perfect work. Thank you!

Jesse s hands down is THE GO TO man took care of me, been very communicative and solid on delivering. Sending over a few people his way already, amazing service here. Theres a shop 5 minutes from my house but my cousin in law referred me & after speaking to him. I knew the distance was worth it. Got me done in less than an hour. Appreciate you Jesse!! You got a few of my buddies already in the works coming by!Service: Exhaust

Super fast and amazing quality went in for just an estimate because over the phone they said they couldn't do it today, so I went in anyways just for the estimate. I wanted to do a full muffler delete and get some tips put on. I found some nice blued ones and he drew up the estimate. He came back out and told me the estimate and it will be done in about half an hour. I had time to talk to another guy that was there for work for about 20 minutes and it was done. Custom made bolt on muffler delete and it looks and sounds mint for my little 2.5L. they did amazing work and will definitely go back for my next car

UNBELIEVABLE QUALITY.If you need exhaust work done, this is definitely one of San Diego s best shops. A month ago I got work done on my 2015 V6 mustang, i had a leak, and was in need of a new midpipe and jesse hooked it up, super affordable and the quality of the work speaks for itself, literally. My car sounded great! Way better than before and I could feel that it was even running better! Now I traded that car in for a GT and went back to jesse, he put in an x-pipe and worked his magic and OH MY GOD, I feel like I have a race car, he took it from stock to nascar in less than 2 hrs! And the welds are SO CLEAN! Ive never seen such perfect welds except on tik toks.

I haven taken my car to Jesse for brakes, catalytic converter replacement, and new struts. Every single time, Jesse and his team have done excellent work. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a reliable and honest mechanic with reasonable pricing. A huge thanks to Jesse for keeping my car safe and providing peace of mind, despite my long commute putting heavy wear and tear on my lil' old Toyota. 5 stars!Service: Brakes

I went there to get my Catalytic converters, the service manager I believe Ricardo was very polite, I wanted an estimate and the system was down and he couldn t log in, he was persistent and even used his phone to try and log in. He was able to get in and made some calls and was able to give me a price. I agree and he order the parts, another day I dropped it off; first thing in the morning. They were quick and I was able to pass smog. They did a great job, the Technician that did the welding also did a great job .They took a huge stress off my back....Thanks

Work isn t bad, can t really mess up an exhaust. Came here to have a simple bolt on catback put on, took them a total of 20 minutes banged me for 220$ extremely overpriced when I asked to do better he wouldn t even shave off 5$ .. if you absolutely need to (and I mean can t go ANYWHERE else) you can use them. But man this guy Jesse will eat your pockets I mean bro imagine a full custom exhaust?? prolly 5k .. be careful this guy must be going broke

Called them up Sat morning. My exhaust had broken the night before. I asked if they had time to fix. They said yeah. They not only fixed the Exhuast, they welded it properly. Great work, accomadating, and affordable. Will recommend to anyone that needs exhaust/muffler work. Thx.

I never post reviews but I just brought my third vehicle to these guys because they are so good! They fit a Flowmaster 50 series with 2.5" tubing on my classic Mustang. There is VERY limited space underneath due to all the chassis stiffening, but they made it work and the bends are perfect! Very friendly, courteous, and prices are fair. I look forward to bringing my next project here!

This guy should work in symphony Hall better yet the orchestra he knows how to fine-tune a sound of a car or truck exceptionally very well. throughout my years I've been too mini muffler shops even performance shops. Jesse's muffler is by far the best throughout the United States. Nobody comes close with expertise and knowledge.

I came to Jessie after being told by a dealership shop that I needed a new catalytic converter to pass my smog test. The diagnosis troubled me because the car had been running fine. Jessie took a look at it and said I don t see anything wrong with your car go take the smog test . The car passed the smog with no issues. Jessie s saved me about $8000.00. It is hard to find honest people in this business. Jessie is honest I highly recommend him!!
