What We Do
Services Built Around Your Vehicle
Whether it's a routine oil change or a full exhaust overhaul, we treat every car, truck, and SUV with the same care we'd give our own.
Custom Exhaust Systems
From mild-mannered replacements to bold custom builds — mufflers, cat-backs, turbo-backs, and straight-pipes. We fabricate, weld, and fit it right.
Muffler & Pipe Repair
Rusted through? Leaking? Loud? We replace damaged mufflers, bent pipes, and failed hangers — often same-day. Quality parts, clean welds, proper fit.
Pre-Purchase Inspections
Buying a used vehicle? Bring it to Rod's before you buy. We'll give you an honest, no-BS breakdown of what it needs — so you drive away confident.
Oil Changes & Maintenance
Synthetic, conventional, high-mileage — we use what your vehicle asks for. Scheduled maintenance that keeps your warranty intact and your engine clean.
Check Engine & Diagnostics
Warning light on the dash? We read codes, trace the real cause, and explain it in plain English — so you know exactly what's wrong and what it'll take to fix it.
About Rod's
Knowledge You Can Count On. Honesty You Can See.
Rod's Auto Repair & Custom Exhaust has been a fixture in Garnett for years — not because we chase trends, but because we do the job right the first time. Every vehicle that rolls into our shop gets the same treatment: careful diagnosis, clear communication, and work we'd be proud to drive away in ourselves.
Whether it's a daily driver needing an oil change, a truck with a cracked manifold, or a project car with a custom exhaust dream, we bring the same attention to detail and the same respect for your dollar. No upselling. No vague timelines. Just honest work from people who actually care about cars.
