Really good mechanics and techs that work really fast! Dont let all the cars in the parking lot discourage you. They will start working on your car in a very timely manner. Ive been going to him for over a decade and now send my daughters cars to him as well. Dave is the man in charge and hes runs an honest establishment. The only thing I would change is the size of the lot. He definitely needs more space in my opinion because hes too popular and well known for conducting excellent business.
I went to get my oil change at 8:40 in the morning the man at the front desk told me that my car should get look at right away and that it should take an hour cool. I come back and ask about my car they didn’t even touch it I asked him why did I leave my car here for and hour and he said idk so be careful if you come here .
I had an after-market exhaust installed at Expert Muffler and Auto Repair and the quality of work that David and his team do is top notch. Very good price and very good work. I dropped off my car first thing in the morning and they had it ready a couple hours later. I would definitely recommend Expert Muffler and Auto Repair.
David is the best,very knowledgeable about the best performance of and for your car or truck. One word- Trust .
Gonna be honest, it was hard to understand those thick Asian accents. At first, I thought they were going to rip me off and not fix my problems, or at least not fix what I wanted fixed, but they did! They did an amazing job. And I went to 3 other mechanics who did nothing and still charged me. I know a ton of foreign people use the language barrier for an advantage in business but this was not the occasion. If they werent so darn far south I go to them for more auto work. 11*/10*
The best mechanic experience Ive ever had! If you want your vehicle fixed right this is the establishment.
David quoted me 100$(150$ less than Toyota)to install a 1 piece catalytic converter shield on my 2014 Toyota Prius. Turns out I had the two piece shield (which takes twice the time to install). He generously honored the original 100 dollar installation fee that he previously quoted me. David was polite and prompt.
Good place to fix the car. it took so fast to fix it. We only left the car about a week and we got called that our car has been fixed. We also get a year warranty. Definitely recommend this place. Price is affordable.
Brought my car in early and it was finished by the afternoon super fast and affordable. David and his crew are very professional and knowledgeable.
This is a fantastic auto repair shop. Affordable, honest and speedy. I have taken my vehicles here for years and have had a fantastic experience every time. Hats off to David and his crew.
Super fair pricing and very professional. Great communication too. The work done was perfect.
Im always pleased when I leave this shop. Fair pricing. Good work. Been here with several cars. I have no complaints.
Ive been taking my cars to this place since 2004. Dave, the owner, is the best. He is honest, reliable, trusting, very resonable in price, and very knowledgeable. He is one of the hardest working person that Ive ever met. I put my trust in him.Thank you Dave for your service to the community.
We have taken 2 cars there and they do a good job. I would go back. Friendly and upfront. They call with the estimate for approval.
David is a hard working, fair guy.
Great staff, did repairs right the first time if missed something will correct.
Very professionalI had an electrical problem they quoted a price turns out it was more extensive than originally thought they honored the original quote and had me back driving in no timeThanks David and crew
Everytime i have every had to go here they treat you right! Call around they ARE the lowest price AND honest. I trust this shop and recommend it.
They do really clean and professional work for a good price. Their lot is always full because they do a lot of good work. Take your car here if you need something done, they will definitely take care of you at a reasonable price. David was also very helpful and the staff is knowledgeable.
This shop always has fair prices, and everyone Ive spoken to has great integrity! Months back I was buying a car I came in for an inspection, and when that particular vehicle turned out to be in really, really bad shape they didnt charge me for their time. More recently I came to them for an oil change and brought the wrong filter along, and they not only got me the proper filter for my car but charged me less for the part than Auto Zone did. Theyve always been very kind and respectful, and I have no doubt continuing to work for them will be just as great in the future!
Dave and his team does a great job! Our family has been going there for years. Great service for a fair price!
Ive been going to Expert for 20 years. They do great work for reasonable prices. Gives you an honest assessment about your vehicle. I fully trust David and his crew.
Fantastic and quick service, they always take care of me and David knows what he’s doing and explains to me what went wrong if I ask. Never been disappointed with these guys.
Always great and fast service
Take all of my vehicles here. Hes a great mechanic and reasonably priced.
This is the BEST auto repair in town the whole crew is awesome and my car was repaired in a very timely manner, Im soooo Satisfied with the repairs on my car.
This is my GO TO shop, I always price things 1 with the dealership and 2 with another family owned shop and this one almost always beats the other shops prices and always beats the dealershipsAlso they do great work. Ive never had a complaint for their work, theyre very honest and even gave me a few free welds on my car body frame that was falling. They even recommended me to not go to them for work they thought was better suited elsewhere for warranty purposes so they arent in it to scam you. Been here over 5 times for varying vehicles. Pontiac 2008 g6 was of course cheaper to fix than a 2015 vw tiguan but either way they got the steals for the area.Trust me, they are worth taking a chance on. Call before you drop it off for a quote.
David is great... Does good work and is very reasonable.
Wouldnt go there ever again
Honest fair hard-working men that have morals and values.. best auto repair service Ive had Im 60 years old in own a construction. I have three vehicles they work on they always do an excellent job.. Ive recommended them numerous times it will do it again. David and his staff are outstanding .. Donovan Taylor contractor
Good work, good prices. Wont go to anyone else!
Very trusted shop.. love there services.. they are very reasonable and have excellent repairs... highly recommend.
Have been coming here forever. Fair prices and quality work. Highly recommend.
Got me in quickly and put my tail pipe back on. Fast and priced right.
I have been here many times with multiple vehicles.The owner David Chan has always come through with timely repairsat a very fair price. I will continue to go to Expert tire and muffler and recommend it to others.
They are a honest and trustworthy business, I appreciate them telling me what I need for my vehicle other than trying to gouag more money from me. I will tell all my friends and co-workers about Daves Muffler & Auto Repair .
I went in to have my water pump replaced, and ended up needing a buttload of other things done. Let me just tell u a 2001 crysler sebring is not cheap to fix, but they gave me a fair price and did a bunch of extra stuff that needed to be fixed free of charge. Even gave me an oil change, I wont be going anywhere else but here from now on. I am super grateful these guys all understood my situation and didnt try to take advantage of me like a couple other shops. Thank u guys
Dave is the greatest.these guys have fair prices and do great work
David has a great shop, and has been repairing my 2013 British car for many years. He is reliable and trustworthy. The costs here are up to 1/3 less than other repair shops.When I first came in I queried others in the waiting area individually. All were totally loyal to this shop. They gave multiple reasons and experience.One day years later I need my car towed to Expert Muffler and Auto Repair. I started to give my AAA tow truck driver directions as the turn in was tricky. The AAA guy said he didn’t need directions. He said,“We all, (AAA), know this business. Great shop.”To conclude, this has:1. A+ rating with BBB2. 19 years in business3. 0 complaints reported to the BBB.
Many years ago I use to come here for all services but the prices seem like where raised 10x and its not as affordable as it use to be
Very responsible, high quality, and detailed. Honest prices that are lower than dealerships.
Let just make this simple, I will never take my car there ever again. I rather take it to the dealer and get it done right. I end up have more problem with my car after I took it there. Highly not recommended.
David was awesome! Was in Tacoma for only a day and half when my car trouble happened. Was so lucky that my friend knew this place. They were able to fix my car quickly so I could get home and were so nice and friendly. Thank you so much for getting me back on the road and not taking advantage of my emergency!
Honest and reasonably priced mechanic. Dont take your vehicle anywhere else.
Fair price and fast
What great people! They are very honest and professional. I can see why they are so highly rated. I know I will be a repeat customer. Im so glad I found you! Thank you so much!
David is the absolute best. He helped me navigate a slightly tricky warranty process that many others would have just given up on.David went above and beyond what was expected and Id recommend him and his shop to everyone.
This is a great place to get work done on your car. David is very professional and knows the business. They are very good at what they do.They are very honest and can give you the best service around. I will definitely be taking my car here from now on.
Honest, affordable and professional - these guys are the only mechanics in the Tacoma metro area you should be taking your car to, point blank.
Very great people fast n reliable. good prices
My husband took my car there for me because my AC stopped working. Fortunately they were able to fix it for $180. Then they noticed the AC only works when on full blast, so David offered to fix that easy fix for an additional $180. My husband kindly declined. When he went to pick my car up and drive it home (3-4 minute drive) everything was all great. Then I get in it the next day to go to work out in Lacey, and my car starts SHAKING! Then if that wasnt bad, my check engine light came on! I had NO PROBLEMS with my car besides that AC. I take great care of my car, so at that point I knew they messed my car up. Im not sure if they thought Id not think its a coincidence that all of a sudden after a trip to the repair shop, my engine doesnt work? HORRIBLE PLACE. My friend works on cars for a living and she noticed parts missing from my car. More than likely this place wont be there for long. My cousin is a lawyer for these specific cases. Justice will be served!
These guys are honest and fast. Its so hard to find an honest and good mechanic. I HIGHLY recommend them.
Best place to get work done. They are straight to the point and prices are best in town also they do the job right Ive been going here for 12+ years and recommend it to all my family and friends.
My heater core went out in my truck. I took it to firestone first who said it would cost $1600. I then called expert and they did it for $800 and completed the job the same day!!! These guys are honest, friendly and true professionals. I will recommend them to everyone I know from now on!!
Good service and David is my guy...
He opened up an extra day during his Christmas break, just to fix my car and get me back to work so I could get gifts to the foster kids I work with. And he charged me like 200-300$ less then the next quoted price for my alternator. I will be back and I will only trust him with my car
Been going to him for over 10 years and he will still treat you like a stranger. Recent did a tune up and now my car has a loud Squeaking noice and doesn’t won’t to fix it.
This guy does honest work
David does an amazing job. I recommend bringing youre car here if you have issue.
If I could give David no stars I would. He charged me $850.00 for a part that cost $10.00 and didnt even put part on . The worst place EVER. I WILL BE SEEKING LEGAL ACTION.
My sister inlaw recommended him to me. And im glad I went. He gets the job done! And he is a very honest man. Very affordable.
Best mechanics ever! I was shooken after hitting a curb and seeing that my car did not steer/drive the same. Was originally quoted by a different ship at $1900 for only my right control arm. Took my car here instead and they replaced the control arm as well as both struts and a ball joint, all for $800. Best prices ever and my car is driving as good as new. Taking my car here from now on. Honest, trustworthy, fast, and very well-priced. Thank you guys!
I like this place. It may not be the neatest place but it gets the job done. No frills just honest work. David fixed my car that others would charge 3 times the price. I have an exotic car and he is an expert. I know if David sees you as a good customer he will go above and beyond to give you excellent customer service. But if youre a demanding and rude customer he will ignore your needs. I trust David to do any type of work on my car. I recommend him to everyone irregardless of some of the bad reviews people have written. His auto repair shop is honest, quality, expertise, and affordable. Go here if you want your car fixed.
Ive been bringing my cars to this place since 2003! Always fast, always friendly and best of all unbeatable pricing! Had my sisters 09 Honda towed there and David figured out why it wasnt running in 3 minutes! I watched him hook everything up to diagnose it!
Owner, David always makes sure he gives you the best service in Tacoma that you can ask for. Unfortunately, too many people know that now, so hes pretty busy. Thats what word of mouth does (but you didnt hear that from me) 😄
Dude put a refurbished engine in my malibu, he did it quickly and was super nice. I came back a week later cause it was idling weird and he fixed it on the spot no charge, I’ll be bringing any cars with issues I have back here
David and his crew are the BEST!!! Any car, any issue at beyond fair prices. You wont be disappointed.
I love this mechanic. He has great prices and is always honest. My family and company take our cars exclusively here.
Honest people and GREAT work. A place where you can sent your wife or any women in your life and know their not gonna get ripped off.
I took a chance on this place through a recommendation of a close friend. I was very pleased it was exactly what they told me it would be thorough, great service, cost effective. I would definitely return again.
Dave the owner very trustworthy very quick and the cheapist auto repair around
I love this place! Ive brought all my vehicles and my familys as well.. thank you David for a job ALWAYS well done
David and his staff provide excellent service and always give competitive rates!!He is prompt and always on top of things. Weve used David for the past 15 or so years and always been real happy with the level of service.
The most honest car repair place Ive found in Tacoma. Hes usually very busy so call ahead.
Always nice never over charge and is very patient when u are trying to explain the problem...I have been coming here for at least 5yrs and will continue to have my car serviced by these amazing guys
The only place I take my car. They are very professional and know what their doing...I have NEVER had a problem with the work they do.. my car has lasted many years THANKS to them!
Really good place.to fix your car.or truck.
Honest good service. Thats all I need to say
Wouldnt go any other place than to Davids shop. Great prices honest people.
The only place I get my car fixed, very good work, and very honest people. Not high priced like most places, theres always a lot of cars here, but dont let that stop you from bringing yours here, theres a lot of cars because they do excellent work n get the job done, I refuse to take my car anywhere else.
Always honest and fair.
Look nowhere else, this is the best auto repair shop in Tacoma. David and his team do their best to get you in and out, at extremely reasonable prices. Thank you David!
Not a good place and we’ll never come back! Tried to fix my car’s suspensions and now they’re making sounds. The owner could not fix the problem.
Good, honest work! I had the exhaust done on my truck and it looks and sounds great, not to mention the price with the best found in the area.
This is the worst place to take your car. Don’t do it. You talk to them settle the price come back an it suddenly goes up. Ask to speak to David that you spoke too and all the sudden he went overseas the next day. Very unprofessional an unacceptable
David and his mechanical crew are wonderful at what they do. I needed alot of work done. He and his crew fixed what was wrong fast and the cost was affordable. Every time I need any machanical help I call David
My daughters Ford Escape suddenly began to rumble. I got under the car and saw that a pipe half way down the exhaust system broke apart. I was hoping that Expert Muffler could weld it or replace the broken pipe. Called them and got a quick appointment, the place was packed with cars in the parking lot. We had a few minutes to wait because of calling last minute but they quickly lifted the SUV and showed us the trouble. They recommended replacing the broken pipe and re-welding a broken hanger. Twenty minutes later I was done with a job that will last the life of the car. Many Thanks, the car was going on a trip that afternoon!
Honest review... great place.. just tell them what you need done and they got it
This place is jank and I do NOT recommend anyone take their car here...hell, dont take you tricycle here.
I was here to install the parts for my suspension and it turned out that they didn’t tighten the end link bolt which making clunky noise. Came back a few times for double check and they said nothing wrong with it. Also, the owner tried to avoid it by saying that was because of the common noise for aftermarket stuff. I gotta take my car to another shop and they fixed it. Can’t trust them any more! Very upset!
Excellent service!! Been going for years and will continue too.. Thank you david and your crew .
Great, as always!
Definitely recommend this shop. Good price and quality work on your vehicle.
Excellent service.
Shop does good work and stands behind the work that they do beautiful place and Beautiful People.
Great job like always
Quick, fast, and WAY cheaper than the other guys in town. Really appreciated their hard work
If I could give this place -5 stars I would. The owner Dave over charges and tries to use random words for parts on the car to say what needs to be fixed. Thinking Im a dumb woman and I wont look into it. This is the age of Google, it only takes a second to find out what he is really talking about. Being that I dont know any other garage I keep trying him. Today he tried to charge me $450 plus programming for a Key Lock Assembly, luckily my girlfriend researched it and I was able to be walked through what to do in less than and min. Problem solved!!He needs to be put out of business. I have sent so many people to him over the years, never again!!!
Excellent work at reasonable prices. Great value for the services provided.
