Came in during lunch to get my exhaust fixed. Kent diagnosed the problem (flex pipe) and got it done within that hour! Highly recommend this place if you have exhaust problems. Service: Exhaust

They are on point! Gave me to options. A fix, or something he bandage. Price was fare. Service was good and quick. Highly recommend!

I was very happy with my experience here. Kent replaced my muffler and did a great job. He knew exactly what was wrong and he fixed it faster and cheaper than I was expecting. They even came in a little under the quote. I called in two days ago and they were able to get the part in and get me fixed up already. 10/10 would recommend. Service: Exhaust

I was referred to Freeway Muffler by my mechanic, Carroll Utley. I had asked for him to give me a quote on fixing my exhaust, and although technically only a section of exhaust needed to be replaced he would have to replace the whole thing. He told me to go to Freeway because they specialize in repairing and customizing exhausts. I'm so glad I did, because they were able to do the work at a fraction of the price!

The owner was a nice guy; I had forgotten to drop my car off earlier in the day but they were understanding and told me to bring it by and they could get it knocked out. In under an hour my car was done, and so refreshingly quiet! I would recommend to anybody who is procrastinating fixing their exhaust due to the expense, because they can customize the work for your car! Thanks Freeway Muffler!

5 star service - they did great work on my car at a reasonable price. That said, they had seemingly no covid-19 awareness - no masks, no hand sanitizer, and the waiting area looked like it had never been disinfected. For the size of the place, it seems like only minimal effort would be needed to ensure the health of their customers.

From the initial diagnosis and quote, to the completed work, I was impressed with this business. Kent was honest and through as he explained the work done, set the time line for parts arrival (older model needed to be ordered in) and got our vehicle in and out on the day of service. The price was very fair for the work done and came in just under the estimated price. I was impressed with the cleanliness of the waiting area.

The staff wasn't wearing masks but I wasn't concerned as we were more than 6 ft. apart. A non issue for me on a very hot July day as the techs were working in the hot, humid, Nebraska summertime conditions.
