Midas

I’m a long time customer due to quality work and honest service. They just Installed air shocks on my 66 gto while I waited. They work on all of my cars.

We have been bringing our cars to this location for years. they always do a great job explaning what is necessary at the time, and perhaps what can wait for a bit. They are also very good about turning the car around in a short amount of time. Usually they are finished the same day.

I have taken a handful of different family vehicles here. The service is always quick, consistent and explained well to the customer. No pressure to make additional repairs that most other repair shops are known for. They do note them, and generate a quote for you to consider — which is great. Mike, Oscar and the whole crew are very respectful and do a great job here. Compared to the Firestone near Costco… This place is a no brainier.

Happy every time I have my car serviced. (Every 3 months) very professional workers and they don’t ever make me feel like I have to make a repair that is not needed. Very female friendly. Never had problems with any repairs. Always satisfied. Check them out. ;)

I was in St. Charles for the weekend to see my father in the hospital and late Saturday morning my car had a spring break and take out my tire as well. I called around and was lucky to find Mike at Midas. He helped me find a towing company, took great care of my car and even had his guys stay over a bit to get my car done before they closed. Had he not, I would have had to miss another day of work to get the car repaired, extending an already stressful weekend.
The guys at Midas gave me great service, weren’t out to repair stuff that wasn’t necessary, and were pleasant to work with. I couldn’t ask for more from an auto repair shop. If you live in the area, you should head to this shop for your car repair needs.

This place is as honest as it gets. I’ve been taking all my cars here for years, and the manager Mike is extremely honest and trustworthy. Last time I was in my check engine light was on, and my car was hesitating. He said he needed to flush the fuel injection, but that the check engine light was on because of a part that failed that you only need to pass emission testing. Since I don’t need to do emission testing, he said it wasn’t necessary and wasn’t affecting my performance at all.
I really appreciate an honest mechanic, and I will continue to bring my cars here for that reason alone. These guys have earned my business and my loyalty by being trustworthy. And they do really good work — haven’t had a problem yet!

I like taking my car here. The guys in the office are extremely nice. They tell me i will need something done soon, but if it is not too bad yet and i amable to drive they tell me i dont need to have service just yet. Very friendly, professional, and speedy. I enjoy taking my car here.

OK, I don’t even like writing such a negative review, but I just want to warn people.
When my old car started making weird noises I decided to bring it to Midas since it was the last place I had taken my car (that time was for an oil change because I had a coupon). Big mistake. They overcharged me a ton and took forever and didn’t even fix a major problem so I had to take it back a few days later! It was a huge, obnoxious, extremely expensive ordeal and I’ll never go back. One mechanic working there was pretty nice to me but the others I talked to (on the phone and in the office part) were not very pleasant to deal with. I just felt like they were condescending and shady. I’m not saying everyone who works there is bad, but I just came away with a bad feeling and I know I never felt that way when I used to take my car to the Ford dealerships in St. Charles or out by my college. I wish I hadn’t let them do anything to my car, but I was in a hurry because I was heading out of town soon so I didn’t have time to take it somewhere else for a second opinion. Now I know of some better places that friends and family have suggested — Reber and Foley for example. I just hope people check Unilocal before they think about going to this Midas. It still makes me so mad to think about how much of my money I gave them! It wasn’t worth it!
