Midas Auto Service Experts

It took a few hours. I just dropped it off and came back that afternoon. I found them when I looked on the internet and kind of through word of mouth on their guarantees and stuff. They gave me a call during the day to let me know how it was going and when they actually did find what the problem was. There were definitely good communication skills on their part.

See above; this was our worst experience ever with an auto service center. It ended up costing us $3,800 to replace the motor in our vehicle and to repair damage that the Midas mechanic had done when they inspected the car.

They were able to get my SUV on a hoist quickly, and came back with a $3,045.00
estimate. Their and quot;inspectionand quot; had found a ton or other things that needed to be fixed. I told them NO, I just needed the tail pipe and resonator replaced for now. That’s when they decided they could do it for $1.500. When I told him that was still to much I did
not have the money for that, he immediately goes into, we have a good relationship with a lender in town, want me to call them and see. The loan was with Town Financial, and they would only lend $750.00. I knew about town because of the loan a friend of mine has with them. Their interest makes the highest credit card interest look like a good deal.
I finally just told them no thanks. Now they did not like it, but did
not charge anything. That all took most of an hour. I took my SUV
back to a muffler shop in my home town of Perry, and all was replaced
four under $400.
Moral
of the story. Shop local first. Just because its a national chain
store with lots of advertising, doesn't always add up to best deal.

The inspection was free, the noise was fixed without the replacement. The muffler was pushed up and caused the noise. The mechanic pulled the tail of of muffler to its original position, problem solved! I highly recommend them because they are honest.
I went in when Midas had the promotional free service of tire rotation with a coupon. They rotated my tires after fixing the muffler.

At no point did we feel pressured to purchase maintenance that did not seem needed, nor were we over-sold on what work they did suggest.
I've used Midas for brakes, mufflers and some basic main. for years and they always do a great job within that range.
I would not use them to replace a motor, for example. But they are great at brakes!

The experience was easy and painless. I knew when I went in that I was going to have to pay quite a bit due to the known issues. The cost was not a surprise at all!

Called, made appointment. Didn't have to wait long for the appointment or at the appointment. They were on time. Very professional.

I am very pleased with their services. They are so friendly. They really go above and beyond and do what they can to help you.
