Sonny did a great job with my truck. He is extremely thorough and has your best interest in mind. Great prices as well!

Was going to be driving my 55 truck to Vegas for a show. Brought it by Sonnys to have them do a once over and check out everything before the trip. They made some suggestions and upgrades to ensure my truck didn't have any issues on the drive. Glad I brought it to them. Truck drove great without and problems. Will be bringing my 55 to Sonnys from now on. read more

After my cat was replaced by them with an aftermarket cat, it failed a little less than 2 years later. I brought it to them they took it off and saw that it had failed. Though the manufacturer was no longer making the aftermarket cats for California and therefore couldn't or wouldn't honor the 2 year warranty. Sonny went ahead and paid for and replaced it with a new factory cat. I Just paid $300 for his time to put it in. Pretty cool. Saved me probably $1200. Very thankful for Sonny and his ethics read more

Great customer service. My truck was in and out in just a couple hours I got a Borla exhaust installed it sounds Amazing! Super aggressive exactly what I wanted exactly what I expected out of it. I've taken all my trucks here in the past I've always recommended Sonny's to friends and family. Always fair on prices read more

Great Meticulous work by Sonny. Brought in my 2016 Cts-v to get a muffler delete. He was able to make a Y pipe and keep my stock tips that fit perfect. The fitment under the bumper and offsets look completely normal and symmetrical A+++ Thanks again! read more

The very best! A business you can trust! This family business is almost an extinct business. A CLEAN well ran HONEST business. I have been using this business for more years than I like to think. Never have I been disappointed! Sonny (the owner) is on top of every repair! They are not the cheapest but never out of line. The old saying you get what you pay for is never more appropriate! Sonnys son Matt, is a fantastic mechanic as his dad. Did I say mechanic Yes they are not only a muffler shop but do many other services as well. Need advice and an HONEST estimate this is the place and you will get a job well done! read more

Sonny does not stand behind his work. Make sure everything is in writing, as he has a million excuses for all his short comings and nothing is ever his fault. BEWARE! Would give no stars, if possible. read more

Sonny and Matt are the best.They have worked on many of my vehicles and have always done perfect work with resonable prices. I had them install an H-pipe on my 2018 Mustang GT, it sounds sooo good. (Resonator Delete) Highly recommend them! read more

Sunny always explains the issues and options well and gives you choices based on various factors. He gives a written estimate and honors it. Each time he's worked on my vehicle, he's done a great job the first time. I trust him to know what he's doing, do it well, charge a fair price, and give me sound, relevant information so I can make informed choices. Sunny's a perfectionist favored by many vintage vehicle hobbyists, but he also understands that every customer has their priorities so gives each customer choices so they can do what is best for them personally. This is why both car enthusiasts and regular customers choose Sunny for the services he provides. Highly recommend. Note: If he doesn't cover a service you need, he'll have you a good referral to someone he trusts. That's part of why my first stop for most things us Sonny's. read more

Sonny does a great job with muffler-related work and some other kinds of auto repairs and is passionate about quality. He's good with vintage cars for his specialty areas but doesn't do all kinds of auto repairs. Check with him about his area of expertise before taking your car in to make sure he does what you need. read more

I had a vehicle brought in for a pre-purchase inspection. Both Sonny and Matt were great, and they gave me a detailed rundown of the whole truck. Safe to say, I purchased the vehicle and got my first oil change there. Whenever I am in San Diego county area, best believe I am calling Sonny! read more

I would give these guys 5 stars. Not only is Sonny & Matt honest, they make sure they go above and beyond to make sure your leaving with the best result.. they are my go to shop for maintenance and exhaust work! read more

The service was ok, but the patronizing attitude from Matt was beyond belief. It's a small town with lots of great auto repair choices. This is my first and last time I will use Sonny's. read more

I called here last minute. They made accommodations to have my aftermarket muffler welded in on the same day I called. They got it done in 45-60 min, while I waited. Its nice to support family owned establishments. I have recommended this shop to a bunch of people. read more

Excellent personalized service. Had appointment and all services performed on time as scheduled! Friendly environment! I recommend to anyone. They'll accommodate your requests! read more

I took my 2005 Dodge truck into Sonny's and spoke with Matt and explained to him exactly want I wanted. I'm seventy years old and wanted to bring back some of the old days, dual exhaust, headers, glasspacks. After, the exhaust manifold, Magna Flow and general overhaul of the exhaust system, I could not be happier. I've got my little rumble and am very pleased with the courtesy, workmanship and overall customer service that both Matt and Sonny showed. I would highly recommend Sonny's to anyone.

These guys are awesome. There is no reason to go anywhere else for exhaust work in Fallbrook. Wanted an exhaust for my rig, was thinking about an expensive/elaborate exhaust system. So I stopped to talk to these guys and met with Matt. We talked about what I was looking for and he explained that although they could absolutely do whatever I wanted, there was a quicker easier solution that would yield better results for much less. AND ! he could do it THAT DAY. I had not planned on that kind of service so I had to come back at a later date. Came back a couple weeks later on a Saturday morning and got the work done in less than an hour ! - Open on Saturdays. - Quick and easy service. - Will not try to upsell you on things you don't need. Highly recommend. read more

My car runs so good after bringing it here! Thank you so much, I have taken my car to other places and never had it checked it as thoroughly. Extremely nice, honest, fast, and thorough repair shop. This is definitely my go-to shop for maintenance and repairs from here on out. read more

Sonny and his staff are trustworthy and professional. They do quality work and they don't try to run up the price. As long as I am in Fallbrook, this is where I will take vehicles. read more

Great service, honesty, and a sincere concern for the proper operation of my vehicle. My flex pipe on the down pipe had probably been leaky since I got the car several years ago; I just turned off the fan at stops so the exhaust didn't get into the cab. Well, I was tired of that. But, being thrifty and working on my own vehicles for the most part, I was going to spend all this time dropping the section to bring to them to weld the new flex portion in. When I brought it in for Sonny to look at, he put it right on the lift, quoted me a great price, and said it'd be done in an hour-ish. I saved a bunch of knuckle busting, time, and potentially installing a pipe that wasn't perfectly aligned, therefore putting tension in the flex section and probably wearing it out prematurely. In fact, this is what he said had happened previously; once removed he found significant torsion in the flex joint. It did take about an hour more than he thought, but it made sense taking into account how these VWs are set up (crossmember in the way, had to add several steps more than a regular car ("Honda civic would take...20 minutes!"). Besides, you're in lovely fallbrook, and have within walking distance three thrift shops, two cafés, joes hardware, oreilys auto, and an award winning library...and maybe an Irish pub and Fallbrook Brewing Co.. :) read more

I needed a new exhaust system for my 1971 Datsun 240Z. Sonny has helped sponsor the Fallbrook Vintage Car Show for years and he was highly recommended by several members of the club. I explained what I needed done and Sonny delivered a "show quality" system. It looks good and sounds great. Give him a try, you won't be disappointed. I'm a resident of Fallbrook and believe in supporting local family business in the community.. read more

Matt was very helpful , and honest with me. Def saved me a lot of money. I will definitely be going back

I came to the shop to have my Mercury Grand Marquis converted to dual exhaust. Matt put together an awesome Magnaflow system, H pipe, and chrome tips. Sonny did the work and you would have thought he was working on a Rolls Royce with the care and precision he was putting into my car. The H pipe he made was perfect. Everything looks absolutely perfect and it sounds great! I highly recommend Sonny's Muffler shop and will never go anywhere else. read more

I stopped by to get a quote and was met by Mathew, Sonny's son. At first I thought he was too young to really know how to fix my older vehicles issues. I soon realized I needed to take me head out of my ass and stop judging people, he knew his stuff better than any old crusty mechanic I have been to. He knew exactly what I was talking about and what the problem was, he booked me in for the following day and single handedly did the job, he called me through the day to let me know what was going on and other issues he found and any preferences I had. The job he did was EPIC!!! I am so happy to find a place like this in Fallbrook. I never met Sonny but Mathew killed it!!! Definitely recommend this place. read more

Sonny quoted me a cost for a dual exhaust system for a classic Chevy which was the only good reason for me to drive all the way to Fallbrook for car repairs. Once I got there, & I was already an hour late, which made for a long day. I asked him for a quote to weld 2 new front floor panels as well. So, it made for a very long day. Sonny & his son worked about 9 hours straight & I never saw them take a break. The end result of the workmanship was outstanding & I was very happy with every detail of their work & how it all looked once completed. I give an A plus in patience, price & quality. It was one long tough day. read more

Awesome guy..he always does a good job... no complaints.........I drive from murrieta to see sonny...

I wanted to say thank you so much! The exhaust you put on is perfect! There open on Saturdays so you can't beat that for all you marines/sailers out there that might work all day. read more

This guy was great Super service nice, honest and knows his line of profession will be returning in the near future for more work!

These guys may be great, but I tried to get a quote over the phone for a simple weld repair on cracked tail pipe, that would only take minutes, and they insisted they had to see it to give an estimate. Being an engineer, I know a lot about welding, and my explanation of what needed to be done, was more than adequate for them to give a quick estimate, but they refused, and wouldn't even discuss it further. So I called another shop in town, and they gave me an estimate over the phone of about $25. Needless to say I had my wife take it there, and they ended up doing it in a few minutes for free. read more

A man you can trust. He was as excited as I was about my car, its hard to find great work, great prices and great customer service in one and Sonny exceeds all three. He's got passion for his work and is a great guy, in the auto industry that's a needle in a hay stack. read more

Sonny fixed the cracked catalytic converter and exhaust system hanger on my 2010 Subaru outback. Another muffler shop had said I was going to need a whole new exhaust system- maybe $2000 bucks! Sonny said no , just let me do this right. He gave me a quote after looking at the vehicle and delivered at that price even though the job required a good bit more welding than had been anticpated. As soon as you see his meticulously clean and organized shop you can see the pride he takes in his work. Excellent! He also has a cool collection of hotrods! read more

Dynamite customer service! Had Invidia Q300 catback installed on my Honda S2000.......couldn't be more pleased with the results!

I took my Subaru into Sonny's Exhaust and Auto this morning because I thought I had an exhaust leak. It turns out, I'm not the "off roader" I thought I was and had cracked my catalytic converter in half on one of my dirt road adventures. Sonny and Matt not only repaired it in under two hours on a Saturday, they saved me $1500! They're seriously the best and I highly recommend them. They do all kinds of auto repairs in addition to exhaust work. read more

Great customer service and my Dodge Charger turned out really nice with my new exhaust

I can't imagine a better person or shop to deal with. Sonny is the standard by which others should aspire! Firstly, Sonny himself is not only a great guy to speak with or discuss your projects, but he is caring, meticulous, knowledgable and a true enthusiast. He speaks fluent 'hot rod' and will do things the right way or not at all. If you have an idea what you want, but need someone with experience to 'fill in the blanks', this is the shop and guy for you. It's actually very difficult to find a good shop to care for classics, customs or specialty cars these days.... you want to trust a shop which looks reasonable or projects the right attitude, but in reality, the shop you trust with your pride and joy can fall way short of the expectations you have. Not so at Sonny's muffler, tucked away off Main Street. He'll treat your car as if it was one of his own. I honestly can't say enough good about my experience with Sonny and his shop. Forget everyone else, bring your Rod, custom, classic, specialty car or everyday auto/truck here for his services - you won't regret it. Dollar for service, I doubt there's much true competition in the whole of SoCal. Awesome. read more
