I was recommended by my usual mechanic for an issue with my CAT.Although my issue with my car may be terminal, the service men and women were very respectful and treated me as an equal -- a big plus when dealing with car repairs, cant stand being talked down to - even going as far as to show me my part (rather excitably honestly and tell me my options and telling me an estimate for the next repair.I am a very skeptical person of two kinds of people in this world; Used car dealers and mechanics.They repaired my baby and I couldnt be happier with the treatment or my options.I didnt even mention my quote ended up being more than what I was actually charged.Very honest and appreciated.

Very good service at a reasonable price.

First time visiting this shop and Ill definitely take my Wrangler there again, if needed. For nearly two years Ive been battling smells, leaks, and noises with the vehicle and have been to five different mechanics multiple times each. The latest bout was an exhaust smell. One place said it was a cracked manifold and quoted $600+ to repair - maybe more since its an 02 and complications could arise. Several people said to try A-1 -- called them and the next day, no more exhaust smell. And it was only $25. No cracked manifold, just a broken seal and other easy fixes. Great service, fast work, and knowledgeable guys in the shop. Thank you!

If & when you have a problem with your exhaust this is the place to bring it!

We have taken a couple of vehicles to this shop. The staff was knowledgeable & very nice. They were quick & charged us much less than wed been quoted by competitors. Id recommend these guys to anyone. :)

I was referred to A1 by another mechanic. I arrived at 8 and the work was done by 8:30. Very good price and Pat was friendly and professional. I would recommend this place to everyone. I am an older female, so I am always leary of being taken advantage of. You dont have that worry here. Excellent work and people.

Ive lived in this area my entire life Ive had good experiences, and bad experiences with automotive places. My experience at A1 muffler shop was a good experience. They got my vehicle in quickly diagnostic quickly gave me a fair price as I checked out other prices. Even checked out prices doing it myself. The manager was cordial and direct, and fair.

Love this place. Very affordable and professional! Highly recommend!!

I was very impressed with Pat and his team. Wait time was minimal even though they were very busy, and price was very reasonable. I was treated with respect and will be happy to return with future business.

Pat and Jeremy is such great guys,and pats wife that works there is so sweet. Very fair men,would 💯 recommend!

Great price and time! Nice people

Put new true dual exhaust on my 1950 ford f1 very nice work

Got brakes done now pedal hard never had that problem .wow Cant stop but then say oh everythings fine no its not . Never again

Pat and his team are great and do very reasonably priced work. Have went there for many years myself and my family.

So much thanks and appreciation to Pat and his team at A1 Muffler in Muncie. My car was so loud I had to turn it off at drive thrus. Now you cant even tell its running and they didnt break my bank to fix it. Thank you so so much!!!

The staff are friendly and straightforward.Their work is done quickly, professionally, and at amazing prices. They have always gone above and beyond for my family and me, and they are the only shop I feel comfortable recommending to anyone and everyone. If I could rate higher than 5 stars I would do so in an instant!

They are the best in town. Great prices, speedy service, friendly staff.

They have always treated us very kindly.

Awesome place great work

Recommend. Great service and helpful. Will use this business again. Thank you.

Pat has always taken great care of my vehicles and a reasonable price

Fast Easy Delete Fair Price

Good fast service nice people

Had a great friend recommend me bringing my car and they are fast and the price was very fair so Im very happy with this place bring your vehicles here

I feel like I ripped them off... The custom work we had done on my sons truck was EXACTLY what we wanted but nowhere near the price we were expecting. Super friendly and a real straight shooter. He does such good work at a really great price that its always busy. But worth the wait!!

Great experience. I got in there and told them what was wrong and they fixed it within 45 minutes. I was even brought out to the bay to see what needed to be done and how it would be done. That is great customer service and I appreciated that. Great price too!

Stopped in today to get a quote at the recommendation of of my normal service center since they dont do exhaust work.I stopped by and they were quite busy and I expected to be turned away. Incredibly, they got me in immediately, confirmed my problem within minutes, and quoted me 20% of what the dealer quoted me for the same job. Everyone I interacted with was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. The best part, they were able to do the work immediately and had me back on the road in 15 minutes. I could not be happier!

They done a great replacing my oxygen sensor on my 2011 Hyundai Sonata. I recommend people to give them the opportunity to repair their cars here.

Dropped off my truck and it was done in less than 2 hours. Great service and the install of the exhaust was done very well. No problems, seamless experience and fair price.Very pleased and I highly recommend A-1 muffler.

The gentleman that worked on my daughters car was amazing!!! Friendly staff and great work!

An honest good man.

Ive been going to this shop for 32 years. Always the best service at the best price!

Pat Quirk is awesome. He and his crew do very good and affordable work. I highly recommend A1

Great work 💞

A1 muffler did my brake line, and rear brakes (every part of the brakes) for half of what other places in town would have (I called to check while they were working on it today), and I trust them to do any work as good as the high dollar shops! They have always been friendly and have always finished the work quickly to get me back out driving same day! Its worth bringing your car downtown to thier little shop :)

I’ve now had some sort of exhaust system put on four different vehicles through Pat and the guys at A-1 in Muncie. They always do a phenomenal job, get the work done quickly, and the final product always exceeds expectations! I couldn’t be happier with the work and love the way my vehicles have sounded afterwards. Don’t bother checking out anyone else and head to A-1!

Its always great work and friendly service, I recommend them to everyone

Great place to go I go there every time

Had a muffler that I needed installed and they gave me a great price not expensive at all like most shops and did a great job! I’ll definitely be coming back again

I went Tuesday morning, they were busy, busy. Pat asked what I needed right away, i told him Im a little loud. 10 minutes later my truck was on the lift. He showed me the problem, got me a price and he got the job done. In and out within a hour. Great guy, great prices. Dont ever go to any other place! Very happy, multiple times...

I dont usually leave reviews but my experience at A1 was exceptional. We asked the mechanic to replace our muffler and the gasket, but after about 5 minutes he came back in and told us the muffler was fine, and that he could replace the gasket for about half as much money. He could have easily just replaced the muffler and charged us more, but he was honest and saved us some money, which was much appreciated. Would recommend to anyone and will definitely be back when the time comes.

I have been going here for 25 years+.Why because the owner Pat is a very honorable man.He doesnt soak you for things you dont need. And his price is always lower than the chain stores. His employees are top notch. So before you go somewhere else stop by A-1. He checks your car out for free.

Wonderful place, very friendly, they got me in fast and were extremely reasonable on price. I would highly recommend.

Always very helpful and my go too place for me car troubles.

After taking my car to 3 different shops A1 was able to diagnose the issue and fix my car in 1 day! They earned my future services for life!

I was advised to come to A1 Muffler by a friend and was not disappointed. The guys here are honest, dependable, and quick. I recommend A1 Muffler to everyone.

Very nice very fast great experience and my car is purrin like a kitten 😸

Would definitely recommend

Got me right in and taken care of!

Pat is absolutely amazing. He took care of me quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend A-1!!

Known Pat and family for years great people honest people cant forget his brother Scott both have been in the business for years .

Top shelf service and very competitive prices !

Dont take your vehicle here unless you have a lot of time and money to waste. These mechanics are so stupid there going to get someone killed. Everyone i know that has their car worked on at A1 has had more problems after the work they have done. My mother had her brake pads changed. Pretty simple right? When the work was done they let her drive off with NO BRAKES. I had an alignment done and guess what, yep car pulled worse after they were done. Their excuse was bad tires even though i had literally just had all 4 brand new tires put on. This place is as professional as the building looks.

Been here 15 or 20 times. Good people and the only muffler shop ill ever go to.

Good prices. Ethical and competent.

Did me a solid and put a nice straight pipe on little trail toy:) thanks boys👌

Love the shop and staff prices are fair and they always do amazing work

Lift isnt big enough to lift large trucks

Went in today with an odd ball request as Im restoring a 74 VW Campervan. Needed some 3.5 in pipe reduced for a heater duct. Wasnt able to reduce the pipe I had, but produced a 3in piece that he bumped up to fit my needs. Immediate help, and very reasonable price!

Fast and friendly at a great price

Excellent, knowledgeable, courteous, honest, service

Awesome place. Pat makes you feel like family and the work is always done right the first time.

It was quick to get done .

They always treat me well !!!

Quality guys who wont try to gouge you! I highly recommend this place!

Was told to come back in an hour, and was basically turned away the following hour I returned

They are fast an good at what they do.

Really great prices here. Quick reliable service too

Quicker than expected, reasonable price, honest shop.

Best place in town for muffler services and other automotive services. Honest, fair and excellent work.

Great job...quick and cheap

Quick to diagnose my problem and very nice gen

Great people who do a good job and dont charge you an arm and a leg to do it!

Great service. In and out in no time

Good honest people do good work you can trust them

Have been going there for years always gets done quick and right. The only ones I would trust with my baby

Pats is very fair on prices. And does really good exhaust work!

Always a pleasure going to see Pat in and out for reasonable price thanks Pat

I have waited 2.5 yrs to give an honest review of the exhaust work done and its longevity.I took my classic car into A-1 2.5yrs ago or so. (tip: Dont make appts in afternoon, do morning.) When I ordered the exhaust I requested 18 Cherry Bombs, to which I got their el-cheapo plain glasspack installed, because theyre the same thing. When I argued, they told me they could paint them red if that would make me happy. My H pipe looks like it was welded by a worker with Parkinsons. They used a pre-fab piece on one side that has unnecessary bends that were re-bent and looks ugly. I didnt have tips installed and the turn downs were not level at all. I returned a week later to have one side, that was about 1 away from my then-skinny rear tire, bent in more to accommodate a larger rear tire. I also asked to have the tips leveled, so they simply cut them right off on both sides so you cant see them. 2 years later my rear bumper is black in those areas. (Live and learn.) They did the fixes free of charge and I only had to wait 30min or so.The exhaust has no leaks, isnt very rusty, and sounds great. The welds seem to be in great shape still. It cost me $350 at the time. I probably wouldnt return or recommend them unless it is a car you dont really care about. If you have a classic, care about getting quality brand mufflers, aesthetic work done, or so, look elsewhere. Im sure this place is great for just fixing a leak on your minivan, though.

Great business, always does good work at a fair price.

Good work stands behind every thing he does
