Best brake shop in Kingston, Pennsylvania (PA) 2024

Usually I brag about this place to people but yesterday they really annoyed me. Walked in there with a $161 quote to replace my muffler from my mechanic (Bowersox Auto) and ended up leaving there paying $429 to get my car back. I was told on the phone the pipe coming into the muffler was rusted as well they needed to replace it and it would cost another $245 to fix, the final cost was $268 more. Then later as I was messaging my mechanic next door American Muffler apparently had an issue putting together that section of exhaust and had to order a larger piece of exhaust. They didn't explain they had to replace like 3/4s of the exhaust and it would take longer to get the parts and fix, plus they never called me back to tell me the issue they had. Dropped it off at 8:30 am with an appointment didn't get it back until after 1 pm because of waiting for parts. I told them I usually don't question them on their knowledge or prices but I was really annoyed by the situation. I then got excuses from them saying oh it's how much prices are now for parts and oh blame Biden. After they were done I looked at the exhaust pipes and told them they look really low to the ground, and they told me that's how it is because of previous work done to the exhaust. Also I asked them about a slight leak in the front part of the exhaust so they looked at it and told me it was the flex pipe and catalytic converter which would cost $600 to replace geez! 👎🏻 I told them that was ridiculous! They were lucky to get two stars and only because they told me their work is warranted for 1-2 years. Oh well I will now be looking to go to other places for muffler service because of that B.S. yesterday at their shop. ~Jeffery
