I came here to get my older Volvo repaired and they did a stellar job. They were very polite and up front with the cost. I love their evaluation process it is very thorough. I would recommend coming here if you are having car issues.

Came in to replace my flex pipe because it had a big hole in it (instead of replacing the entire converter) it s a specialty repair and they were able to do it at a way better price than other shops i talked to. Prompt courteous service! My car is so quiet now and I can turn my A/C on again without exhaust coming in my car! Would definitely recommend this shop!

Price for the work performed was outstanding. Cheaper than the dealership. Got the job done very quickly. So the value and service here was excellent.Customer service was a mixed bag. On one hand, Nicole and Mike were very professional and friendly. The woman who answers the calls (Pilar) is not a nice person to talk to. You'll know within a minute if she is on the other end of the line . . . she was unprofessional and very short to my wife and me. Not sure why she is in a customer-facing role with her bad attitude.In any case, don't let the stumbling block take you away from a great little shop that does good work for a fair price.

Had an exhaust leak, went to Midas Muffler off of Alameda and Harlan in Lakewood, said it would be $1000.00 to repair, went to Lakewood Muffler and it was $45!!!Adam and his wife made my day. This is my new auto repair place! Nothing like dealing with honest and hardworking people who want to help you and not rip you off!

Moved to Denver from the Colorado western slope. This was my first Air Care emissions test for my '87 F150 pickup. The folks at Lakewood Muffler & Brake were very helpful explaining the process of inspection and registration in Denver. Better than that, they saved me money. They replaced tail pipe and muffler but said I should wait to replace catalytic converters as I'd asked. The truck passed without the additional work.

Took my modified truck in with a very difficult exhaust welding repair job. Shockingly low quote, fast friendly service, and paid the quoted price. Great job! Will use and recommend again.

Had my truck exhaust re-routed before resale after lift kit was installed. Fast friendly service, great price. Would highly recommend. Best muffler shop in the area, I'll be back for my next truck as well. Thanks!

Adam quoted me $240 - $340 over the phone for a muffler, short-pipe and resonator replacement for my 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 diesel. Everyone was prompt & polite when I dropped off, and we agreed all I needed was a muffler - the short-pipe and resonator could stay on and we'd re-use the tailpipe. I thought that the price would be less, as there would be less parts and work involved in replacing the muffler only (instead of the resonator & shortpipe as well). When I came in for pick up, the invoice was over $334 - for the muffler only. The muffler is some generic (ALLLIED) after-market, steel (not a "performance" item, or even aluminized or stainless) that probably should cost no more than $120 - marked up to $210! While the welding & install look fine, I wonder how long this over-priced steel muffler will last. When I asked about it, I was met with polite, "that's how much it costs"... Adam appears to do good work, but be sure to get an estimate IN WRITING before leaving your vehicle here for any work.

I and many of my friends have had work done by Adam and it,s always done on time, a good and neat fit with a fair price. Adam and his staff are very friendly and answer all questions. Had to leave my car for several days, kept inside. Where do you find that kind of service these days?Thanks Bob

I needed a clamp tighted. Pretty easy job. But this guy was so cool. He took my truck in immediately. Fixed it in 5 mins then didn't ask for anything. Great experience. I did pay him btw.

I took my Nissan Titan in to have a tailpipe replaced and this shop could not have been better. Great staff and better prices. Just don't look for Lakewood Muffler, it is now Automotive Evolution.

Dropped off my Jeep after destroying my exhaust system 4wheeling. Now my baby is purring like a kitten again. The best part is that they custom bent the pipe around the front of my oil pan and tucked it up into the frame where i cant bang it up on rocks again! All under $500. Nicole was awesome. Will recommend to others. Thanks Lakewood Muffler!

Set up a appointment to modify my exhaust, 3 weeks in advance, making sure the books were completely clear on that day. I had a great talk with Adam about time frame and cost, setting my appointment for an afternoon slot at 2pm. Received a message from the receptionist, just 2 hours prior to my appointment, stating that my appointment would not be honored because morning appointments always have priority and I would be bumped to a future date. No apologies, no humility, in fact quite demeaning as if it were my fault for taking an afternoon slot. I requested a call back from Adam to hash things out, so I would not be wasting my time on another future appointment. Sadly, Adam, I wish you would have called me back...

Lakewood muffler has done a lot of work for me over the years on a wide range of vehicles. Fair pricing and quick work. Always a pleasure doing business with them.

This shop took the time to evaluate my car's issues (there are several), and give me estimates KNOWING I may not want to repair it at all. I literally asked them if I should ditch the car and they said yes, though they would have taken in over $2,000 in business from me. I will return to them for my next repair.

Excellent. All I did was read these reviews and decided to try them. The positive reviews are accurate. Very good people, good work, and fair prices. They only recommended what was necessary and were fast to get the work done. I am 100% satisfied and will be back to this shop for any future needs.

I needed a quick turnaround as our other car was in for some extended work when our exhaust system went down, I got it. In and out the same day. The price was much less than I anticipated. Thank you Nicole.Bob

Adam set my 5.7 ram up with the perfect sounding and looking exhaust. I explained what I was looking for and had a few products in mind. His input and suggestion was spot on. We will be back for future exhaust work and more. Thank you!
