My issue with Speedy was the "lifetime" guarantee. Most people don't keep their cars for more than five years or so and thus they don't have to honour their warranty. I have owned this car for twenty-five years now and I put them to the test about their warranty. Don't brag about a 'lifetime' warranty and then fail to honour it. Perhaps the company ran into too many owners who were keeping their cars longer and they could not continue to honour the warranty.

I note they are no longer called "Speedy Muffler." It is now "Speedy Auto Service." Perhaps the original outfit went out of business and morphed into what exists today--without the guarantee!

Regardless I am going to get the muffler fixed at a local garage and there will be little or no guarantee attached I expect.
