I have been here many times with my vehicles and I have recommended many of my friends to them. Also this place is well known in the area where many people I know knows this place. They specialize in exhaust works which I had them help me for installing and cutting some pipes. They are honest, reliable, professional and friendly where they really take great care of your vehicle and are very understanding with specific needs. The owner here, Lisa, is really great and knows how business works plus she has great memory where she recognizes all of her customers. Do not get intimidated when you see a line here because they work really quick and will get your service you are looking for as soon as possible. Whenever I drop off my vehicle I tend to walk around or get a quick bite, and I never mind the wait since I am a very patient person. They do have a waiting room at your convience if you do not want to go out. They do other works to such as brakes, wheel alignment, suspension, tune ups, replacing a catalytic converter, scheduled maintenance and much more. I highly recommend this place to anyone needing quick work to their vehicle, if you want some exhaust work done or if you need something specific service for your vehicle, or if you just so happen to be on the area to check them out. I definitely will be back in the future!
Ever since my first car some 18 odd years ago I’ve been bringing my car to golden auto. Lisa is kind of a staple to the locals. Iykyk. They’re efficient and i always leave with more smiles per gallon.
Heard my muffler fail. Called Golden Auto. Had me in and out in less than an hour for a great price. Very courteous and even showed me the damage on the old muffler. Highly recommend. Don't waste your time anywhere else.
The lady who works there is so kind and helpful,the price is affordable and They fixed my car immediately! I came back again for oil change, it’s only take 35 bucks which is amazing! I don’t want to do my own oil change anymore, by the way,need to bring your oil and filter.
After having our catalytic converter stolen within days of buying our Prius I called all over town looking for a shop that could help me out. What I found was of the few who could help me, they were unable to get me if for weeks and their quotes were hundreds higher than what I paid (including taxes) at Golden Auto. Not only that, I dropped off my car with no appointment and 2 hours later my car was fixed! I didn’t expect that kind of turn around. Additionally, Lisa (the owner, who was very helpful and honest) installed a catalytic converter plate and welded additional reinforcement to prevent it from happening again. I am so appreciative of her after going through this nightmare to have a positive experience. I highly recommend her shop, she’s quick, affordable and honest. What more could you want?
Brought my car to Golden Auto yesterday for an issue with my exhaust, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. They quickly identified the problem, fixed it, and had me in and out in 30 minutes. The price was perfect, and the team was incredibly kind and personable. It’s rare to find a shop that combines great service, efficiency, and affordability so seamlessly. I truly appreciate their work and highly recommend!
I let them work on my Audi q7 I did resonator delete and after I took for a spin it was making a lot of hissing noise, they messed up my whole pipe the welding job wasn’t complete and they left holes, I brought back the car to them 4 times and they said they can’t do anything about it and they blamed it on my engine with an excuse that didn’t make sense at all they said “your engine pushing too much power that’s why”clueless and they over charge for a job that wasn’t even finished I payed $500!!!! Take a listen at the video and see yourself, before it was flowing perfectly fine.
Customer service goes a long way for me personally and these guys have great attitudes. They had me in and out in under an hour to weld in a section of my exhaust that had a hole in it. Figured I would have them throw on a tip too for esthetics. Fair prices, quick service, and nice people. I work in the automotive industry as a technician and I can tell these guys are the real deal. Highly recommend!!
Golden Auto muffler is the best muffler shop I've been to and they always do good work with reasonable prices. I've been going to them for many years. This Google review request just popped up automatically or so I am writing this review now but I should have done it a long time ago. Joe the owner is also excellent and always gives the best service.
Golden Auto replaced my stolen catalytic converter quickly and efficiently. They confirmed parts in stock over the phone on a Saturday, finished the repair same-day, and even showed me how to handle the insurance claim. Highly recommend!
They kept my OEM muffler which worth thousands when had them installed a magnaflow on my Accord. They charged a full price on alignment but they only do the front wheels, and they claimed that too much rust on my vehicle and did not want to break my vehicle. I looked at the bottom of my vehicle and I didn't see much rust when I got home. Say away from dishonest people.
Superior workmanship. They installer clearly understood. This is a four-wheel drive that I use off-road and without mentioning it he installed the muffler a bit higher up instead of a stock location which would have been much lower. I really appreciate this attention to detail. The bead that he ran connecting the muffler to my exhaust system was seamless. Very very nicely done and worth the money
My neighbor referred me to this location after my Catalytic converter was stolen. I had to pay out of pocket and worked with Kyle to get it fixed. I got to meet him and Lisa and they were so nice, welcoming and knowledgeable! I highly recommend this shop. It was quick, affordable and friendly! Thank you! So.happy to be able to.drive my car again without roaring!
Lisa and team do a great job getting you in and out fast. I’ve never been dissatisfied. The install of the Miller Cat plate and a welded crossbar will hopefully prevent theft in the future. Yes, I completely painted the cat in 2000f orange before bringing the car in.
Lisa & Joe provide the best customer service & care. I've brought my cars to her for years. I've purchased catalytic converters & mufflers from them for years for several of my cars. They've also done other jobs. I appreciate her and her son for always being helpful & transparent.
The catalytic converter on my little 05 Tacoma pick-up truck got stolen. Golden Auto was able to get it fixed in one day. Good job Kyle/Lisa. A bit dirty though because the technician who brought out my truck put mud all over the floor mat. I asked for OEM catalytic converters but Lisa said it will take six months so I had no choice but aftermarket. For the catalytic converters, $2561.44. (My Tacoma has 2 cats) Walker catalytic converter 83601 $600, Catco catalytic converter 775106 $1150, labor $332.83, O2 sensor $160, labor $130, tax $188.61 = $2561.44. I requested them to put in a cage so that this doesn't happen again. Instead, I received a Cat Shield from Millercat installed (shield $150, labor $635.19, tax 14.81) $800. $3261.44 total. So far so good. No exhaust leak or check engine light after about a week of driving.
I recently had an excellent experience of using Golden Auto Muffler & Brake Service. Lisa, the owner of the business, was incredibly helpful and her team of professionals provided exceptional service.
When some thieves tried to steal my catalytic converter and oxygen sensor, I was in a bind. However, Lisa and her team were quick to help me replace them, and I was back on the road in no time. Their service was friendly, professional, and efficient, making me feel comfortable throughout the entire process.
Overall, my experience with Golden Auto Muffler & Brake Service was exceptional. Lisa and her team went above and beyond to ensure that I received the best possible service. I highly recommend this business to anyone in need of auto repair services. Their commitment to quality and customer satisfaction is truly unmatched, and I will definitely be returning for any future repairs or maintenance needs. Thank you, Golden Auto
Had my catalytic converter stolen off my car. I was told this shop was the place to go and I was not disappointed! Amazing service and hospitality with very warm people that obviously care and take great pride in their work! The price was a fraction of what other shops had quoted and I was in and out in under an hour. I will definitely send people to this shop and will return should I need any future service. Very happy couldn’t be more satisfied! Thank you Golden Auto!
After 15 days all welds broke free and I had to pay another shop to re due all there horrible work. When contacting the business they talked down towards me and took no responsibility for there horrible work. They didn’t even put on the right muffler. I paid over $550 just to have it break in 3 weeks. Cost me another $400 at another shop to repair. The other shop was well aware of there bad welding.
The weld job doesn't look that great and I hope it holds well in time.
Besides the weld issue. They offer fast service. The price they quoted was more affordable than other shops. I hope I won't experience cat converter theft again but for any other muffler repair job, I will come back to this shop as long as I live in the area.

Between Lisa and the younger fella who helped out (sorry, forget his name!) the two couldnt have been more helpful and accommodating. Really A+ service and pricing. I searched easily over 10 different places around the Bay, and Golden Auto soared above the rest with pricing, service and quick turnaround. Dont go anywhere else. They turned my nightmare scenario into a relaxing one, and eased all the nerves surrounding it. Thank you!!!
I called about getting a new cadyliitic converter for my older model truck. Lisa, the owner, was really helpful and suggested the best option that would work and not cost me a ton of money. This place was referred to me by my trusted mechanic. They had me in and out in 20 minutes! I was impressed.
GREAT! Dropped in without an appointment on the recommendation of a person that knew what needed to be done on my vehicle, and they immediately ascertained the problem and fixed it in no time! This place is very BIG and to my eyes very clean and organized. I had no problem and would go back if I needed similar work done on my car. Thumbs up!
Lisa is amazing, she really takes care of your car and the price is good. She never oversells or tries to make you get something you dont need. Convenient location .
Love this place. Got my catalytic converter replaced, took forty minutes and was a quarter of the price of other mechanics. Lisa was so nice and thoughtful at every step. Couldn't recommend them more.
Great service. Fast and efficient. The converter on my '06 Prius finally got stolen and the team here were able to take my car right away and fix it up in two days. I also invested in the protective cage they personally fabricate to slow down any future attempts on the converter. I definitely recommend them!
I am absolutely 100% satisfied with my car experience today. i showed up @ 8am, diagnosed in minutes, estimate in cost accurate with total payment. Fantastic customer service. I felt at ease with the mechanical performance. I found by far my favorite and now permanent car care shop.
