Midas

as others point out, this is a place where those who can do — those who can’t are midas mechanics! First oil change they upcharged my gf by saying the air filter needed changing. Well, the car had barely 15k miles on it, and you can change it yourself in about 2 minutes under the hood. They refunded cost when I complained. I should have known better. Second ooil change and I called for an appointment (my excuse for going back — I had a midas coupon). Well, its not an ‘appointment’ and they dont tell you that, since when I arrived on time at opening of business day there were people ahead of me and so they went first, and not only did I wait their hour, I waited an hour more for me. I just wanted the oil and tires rotated. Idiot mechanic mis– rotated the tires (directional tires don’t go left-​right, they go front to back) and pulled out the in-​cabin filter to check it, and when I said I didnt need it, left the parts sitting on the passenger side floor, and I had to go back to have them re-​installed. Take my word for it and hust go somewhere else. And not at that Boyz place down the street either. That’s a commercial den of thieves.

Decent location, had a bit of work done here and the staff seem friendly. Helped figure out my check engine light issue, and did so quickly. Explained and told me what i needed too do, appreciate the help’

I needed an emissions test quick and I should have known better than to go back to these clowns, as another reviewer rightly labeled them. I had an appointment at 7:30 am, so I got there at 7:30 and tell the guy at the desk. He acts like I’m at the wrong location or stupid or something by rolling his eyes and doing the flip your palm up in the air like someone just cut you off in traffic move. The service is quick, but they change me $ 26 for emissions only, when inspection and emissions is $ 40. How does an inspection cost less than a simple emissions test? Really unhappy with a simple 20 minute service.
Expect to be greeted by a crap attitude and premium prices for maybe ok work. Definitely won’t be returning after this, their second chance.

I came in for the $ 39.99 inspection/​emission ad… they could not even invoice me with the advertised price claiming their computer wasn’t capable. For my inspection they failed me, claiming I needed pads and rotors for my 2012 Kia Forte @ $ 447 with discounts… I took the fail because I will not pay that much for pads and rotors and prefer to just change them myself with quality ceramic pads. When I went to change the brake pads myself I noticed that the old pads/​rotors were still within the legal limit… I checked them with a micrometer. I went back and asked them to give me the inspection sticker since my vehicle was legal… even though the pads/​rotors needed to be replaced they were still legal and they should have passed me. These clowns were not only rude, but they tried to charge me for the reinspection. I told them to get bent and I went somewhere else. They also tried to charge me a little over $ 20 to replace a license bulb that wasn’t burnt… steer clear of these clowns. Aside from that, the mecahnic doing the inspection left his welfare check stub on the floor of my car… real classy and it pissed me off. I disputed the charge with VISA for them lying about my brake linings becuse they refused my refund. Absolute crooks… I contacted the Montgomery county vehicle inspection officer at PennDOT and they will be expecting a happy visit soon…

Since moving to eastern PA I have had the hardest time finding honest affordable mechanics. I never dreamed of going to a chain place like Midas, I was under the impression they were crooks. Boy was I wrong!
My Jeep broke down over by the mall and the tow truck driver recommended Midas. George took in my Jeep right away. Parts were ordered quickly but since it was New Years Eve they could’t get all the parts they needed.
Then they did something that no shop I have ever been to has ever done; they took me inside to explain what was wrong. I am mechanically minded and understand how my car works, I just don’t have the space or tools to do most repairs other than an oil change. What they said was honest and the proof was right in the engine. The charges were fair too, plus they were sure to give me the coupons even though I didn’t have any. I think I finally have found my mechanic, and it is George and his team at Midas. Thanks!

If there was a negative rating I would use it. After having new brakes installed I noticed a rattling sound. I took my car to my regular shop, and it turns out it wasn’t installed properly. Then while my car was getting the state inspection done I needed a new stud nut (different wheel than the brake issue) as whomever was there previously (Midas KOP) didn’t align it correctly when reassembling, and the stud nut cracked during inspection. Wasted time, and money as a result from going to Midas KOP!

I came here for Oil Change and state inspection and they recommended Rear Break drum change for my car else inspection will fail (Which I doubt as there was no issues with my car).
Still I’ve gone for it and after changing Drum it started giving me lots of sound from my break. I went back and they told me I need to replace break shoe as well. ridiculous. Totally pissed of with there service. I don’t recommend this shop.

I come here for all my maintaince needs for all my cars. Fair prices no upsell. They are extremely easy to deal with on a budget and I have even gotten a ride home from them.

I took my Infiniti to this Midas to have a couple hundred dollars worth of work done. The work was done well, and on time. However, my complaint is that my car was returned with large boot-​shaped dirt marks on the inside of the passenger door (kinda like someone with dirty shoes has opened the door — or held it open — with their boot). I am pretty observant and particular about my car and I am quite sure these marks weren’t there previously.
George is a good guy and I have been to other Midas’ and I generally am a fan, but I won’t be returning to this one.

I visited Midas after having getting a flat tire on 76 outside of Manayunk. At the time, I had a car full of people and was on my way to a wedding. I pulled into Midas and was out with a new tire in less than an hour. The guys at Midas checked my tire to see if it could be repaired. When they determined it couldnt they quickly priced out a replacement tire. Knowing that you should usually replace tires in pairs, I was prepared to purchase at least two tires, but the guys at Midas convinced me that it wasn’t necessary. I was impressed that they were most focused on providing good service, not just making a sale.

We visited Midas on 202 in King of Prussia for an oil change and were quite happy. Service was friendly and patient, both on the telephone and in person. The price was reasonable and the work was done quickly. The person we dealt with pointed out that the rubber boots on the wheel joints were cracked, and would eventually need to be replaced, but told us that it was not urgent yet, and that we could wait. He also pointed out that the radiator overflow was low and put some water in for us.
We will gladly return to this Midas.

This place is completely responsible for changing my outlook on oil changes. Prior to my first visit, Patty, my poor little prius, was lucky to get an oil change once every year. Then I called this Midas and talked to Bob*. An indescribably happy, friendly fellow (I noticed no forced fakeness), he set me up with an appointment for the same day. Just like Aaron T., I was in an out in well under an hour. Midas also sends out regular coupons in the mail as well, giving out 20 dollar basic oil changes, and 25 for premium oil changes.
I’ve gone back several times, each visit as pleasant and easy as the last. Only for oil changes though, though the staff seems friendly and competent enough that if anything were to unfortunately happen to Patty, I would go to them first. Highly recommend!
*I’m terrible at names, but he just seemed like a Bob kind of guy.

Took me right away and gave me a coupon to use on the same visit. In and out in under an hour. Friendly and efficient. Thumbs up!
