Arizona Exhaust Systems - Borla Muffler

Talk to any mechanic, auto parts store worker, or car enthusiast in the Quad Cities area about…read moreexhaust systems -- and THEY ALL refer you to Bill @ Arizona Exhaust Systems. [Encounter #1:] Had a loud rattle a couple of years ago that suddenly started and occurred thereafter driving over bumps & potholes, and assumed that something in the exhaust system had come loose. Bill took it for a test drive and did a full inspection, but was unable to find any issue with the exhaust system (turns out it was a brake shoe backing plate that had rusted out and come loose). As another reviewer had experienced, I insisted on paying Bill for his time -- but he refused any payment. [Encounter #2:] Ignored catalytic converter diagnostic codes until old Prius with lots of miles (nearly 300,000) was unable to climb hills or go faster than 35 MPH (owing to that converter becoming clogged and exhaust backing up causing loud valve noises). Anyway, Bill quoted me a price which I was thrilled with -- and when I arrived later to pick up the car (a little wait as he's so popular & busy), he said that the actual price was around $200 less as the labor turned out to be less than usual owing to the ability on my car to access & replace two components at once -- instead of the time often required to access both components separately & independently. Bill is a national treasure.

Fast, friendly, efficient, fair, knowledgeable, first rate work. I can't say enough about Bill and…read morehis crew. Restores my faith in mechanics and humanity!

Took my car to Network Auto for diagnosis of a noisy exhaust system. They diagnosed it (free of…read morecharge) as a flex-pipe problem, and referred me to Prescott Muffler for the repair. Prescott Muffler scheduled an appointment for a few days later, and I took the car in at 9AM. By 10AM, Steve and another mechanic had cut out the old flex pipe, assembled a custom flex-pipe and extension assembly to fit my car from materials they had on hand, and welded it in. Now I have a quiet exhaust system. And they charged me about 1/3 the amount I was expecting to have to pay. While I was there, a lady came in and told Barb at the front desk that Network Auto had sent her there to get a catalytic converter replaced. Barb called to get a price on the part, and quoted the lady a parts and labor cost that was about what the lady had expected to pay for the catalytic converter alone. Based on this experience, I highly recommend Prescott Muffler to anyone who needs exhaust system work.

Called up looking for a catalytic converter for my 1997 Jeep Wrangler and was quoted 275 installed!…read moreBefore I called I had shopped OEM as well as cheap and higher quality after market options . The most expensive was the factory the cheapest was 59.99 with a good quality unit for 99.99 . I called Arizona exhaust Systems left with a better than cat for 109.00 and 50.00 to install it so 175.00 out the door ! Saved me 100.00 Bill over at Arizona Exhaust did superb work and was very reasonably priced!

This above and beyond customer service deserves recognition! Rob took down all the items we needed done, prepared the work order and the tech, Jim, immediately got to work on it. An oil change, wipers, rear tire flap replacement and tire extenders-all this and we were ready to go! Thank you to all your staff for allowing us to maintain our scheduled vacation. We appreciate you all:)

We have supported Blue Compass for years. This is our 7th and final purchase from Blue Compass. In…read morefact, I purchased a Brinkley at the Prescott location, which we still own today. As an active influencer in the RV community, I have referred a steady stream of customers to your dealerships. That ends today with Vice President of Sales, Brody Thompson's response. Beginning in January 2026 in Prescott Valley, AZ, we were excited to purchase a smaller RV, an addition to our Brinkley we purchased last year. We noticed a concern after being called to the dealership multiple times to complete or sign missing paperwork or make corrections. While waiting in the sales room, the finance manager, Michael, decided to have a conference call on speaker for everyone to hear. Unfortunately, mistakes were made and discussed on this call. Now, it required altering our original deal, which required an adjustment to the initial agreement. Michael requested an additional 6K due to this error, but we refused, staying firm with our 10K down payment. This is where it gets good. Well, a roadside service contract was added between the various revisions of the contract. Surprisingly, no verbal discussion occurred, as I would have easily refused. I've been paying for my own RV roadside service for years. Are they trying to recoup some of the additional $ 6K requested? Wait, it gets even better! Let's review my warranty contract. Oh wait, we can't. We were only provided the cover page of the warranty contract. The remaining pages, which included the cancellation policy, was not included. Luckily when we purchased our Brinkley last year, our warranty contract included all pages, which outlined the cancellation terms. This situation reflects poor process at best. At worst, it points to deception. Why cancel? They created an additional loan for the warranty, which doubled the original agreement and monthly payment. Two loans for one RV!?! The dealership now involved Blue Compass leadership, Vice President of Sales Brody Thompson. Now, Mr. Thompson is questioning our integrity instead of addressing the facts, stating, "This is the reason so many dealerships act as if they don't care about the customer, because it's clear so many customers care not to keep their word." Then closes his email with; "Two sides to a story". This response speaks for itself. He's not interested in customer service or learning the facts of this transaction; his only focus is sales. I will not accept an attack on my integrity when the issues in this transaction were outside my control, not communicated or created by others. The true reason why dealerships get a bad reputation are examples pointed out in this review. A dealership that conceals charges or promotes a false narrative in conflict with a signed legal contract raises serious ethical concerns. These actions reflect deceptive business practices and undermine the integrity of the transaction. That approach damages trust, violates consumer protections, and warrants formal review and exposure. Bottom Line: unauthorized add-ons, incomplete/missing documents, conflicting loans, & delayed refund. As an RV influencer, I will continue to share the facts of this story for years to come, including in our video review of the RV. Others have shared this same experience on other platforms and via the Better Business Bureau website (BBB).

This will be the first review I've written without actually having any services done. This shop has…read moregot to be the most honest automotive repair shop I've been to. I brought my 1962 Nova that I just purchased off of marketplace in for a few things to get it safely running on the road. Eric gave me a call about 2 hours later with some pretty bad news. Unfortunately I purchased a pretty bad apple that would take thousands of dollars to get it safely operable. He totally could have taken my money and did the minimum what I thought was good enough. After he walked me through everything this poor car has issues with, I am so thankful for his honesty and genuine care for anyone driving the car. I will absolutely be bringing all of our vehicles to Eric and his awesome team of mechanics for any future needs.

I brought my 1972 Ford F\-250to Action Auto of Lake Forest expecting professional care for tire…read moreinstallation and AC work. Instead, my truck was ignored, damaged, mishandled, repeatedly delayed, and ultimately returned in unacceptable condition. IE not the same as I brought it to them. On the first visit, Action Auto damaged the right front fender so badly enough that it had to be removed and hammered back into shape. The brightwork was also distorted all of which they had not explains to how the incident happened, trying to claim it "arrived that way." For a shop entrusted with a classic vehicles in Orange County, that level of carelessness is completely unacceptable. What should have been a relatively straightforward job took six weeks. The truck sat for roughly a month "waiting for parts" accumulating dirt and grime and time on a deadline as truck was being shipped overseas. Then came the wheels. Action Auto outsourced the balancing and powder coating but apparently never bothered to verify that the wheels were true. They weren't! The wheels were mounted with an absurd amount of balancing weight, and the defective, out of round tires apparently weren't questioned either. That's not quality control, that's simply putting the problem on the customer's truck/vehicle and hoping nobody notices. After having the truck properly sorted mechanically by Saddleback Auto in a previous visit to Action Auto, I had to send it back to Action Auto because of a bad AC compressor they installed, belt slap from the compressor, and the botched wheel work. They kept the truck for another month, then tried to make me responsible for half the cost of repairing the wheels, wheels they had outsourced and failed to properly inspect in the first place. And the final pickup was unbelievable: the horn unit had been destroyed, the air cleaner was sitting in the truck bed, and the truck that arrived at their shop immaculate was returned absolutely filthy! Had I not shown up when I did, the truck apparently would have been sent back to Saddleback Auto in pieces, most likely with the blame being shifter to me. This wasn't one unfortunate mistake but a series of careless negligence. It was a repeated failure to properly handle, inspect, and take responsibility for a customer's vintage vehicle with attention to detail and preservation. If you care at all about your classic car or truck, my experience gives me zero confidence in leaving any vintage vehicle of any significant value, originality or rarity with Action Auto of Lake Forest. Six weeks the first time. Another month the second time. Damage to the truck. Defective and sloppy work. Outsourced work that wasn't properly checked. More damage. A filthy truck returned. And then an attempt to pass part of the repair bill on to me. Never again!
