This place is top notch! I brought My girlfriend‘s car there in a haste as her exhaust was suddenly dangling on the floor, & they had it done wicked fast. They’ve also replaced my struts when I was in a pinch. These guys are very hard working, honest & accommodating. I’m going there for all my inspections from now…

I personally never write reviews but I had such a positive experience at AMS that it needs to be told. The owner Zach is so knowledgeable, and friendly. Experienced staff that know what they are doing and price is very reasonable. Will go here for all my auto needs from now on. Thanks again

Don’t usually write reviews but have to say American Mufflers not only do mufflers but also do Auto repairs. And the mechanics there are friendly and honest. I bring all my vehicles there for service. I highly recommend this shop. Thanks Zack and the boys for taking care of me and my vehicles.
