Midas

Excellent service. Highly recommend this Midas to everyone. Friendly Manager and staff. Answered every question I had without rushing me, gave me several affordable options to choose from. I will be back !

Just came from there. The guy running the place, «Larry», used to work for Munro. I now know why.
Munro used to pull that crap of lulling you in and getting your car in the air and then hitting you with an exorbitant repair estimate. I threatened them with police to get my car off their rack with no work being done after this guy started spouting about how it would be illegal for him to release my car to me in the state it was in. Please, let me call the police for you. I know there is no such law about repair shops keeping vehicles that are in need of a simple brake pad fix. This guy is pulling the same stunt at Midas.
I do not have the ability to work on my own vehicle so I am forced to go to repair shops (landlord rule). The tech looked under the vehicle and said he saw the leak in my brakes. I know for a fact a splice job, which is common in the industry, will only take about 10 minutes. I’ve worked maintenance before at a previous job. Also know the splice will only cost about $ 7 in material and probably another $ 10 in brake fluid.
«Larry» (big redhead guy) starts in with his spiel about it being a long job, 7 or 8 hours. And you all know tech hour rates are huge (ranging anywhere from $ 65 – 130 per hour) so he’s looking to make a quick buck off some fool. Funny, yesterday on the phone you told me it would probably only be in the air about 20 minutes.
Stay far away from here folks. Unless you have a lot of money and time you need to burn up.

This place is pretty much like any other oil change/​brake joint… I’m not sure what their normal price for an oil change is but they were running a deal at $ 17.99 for an oil and filter change and a tire rotation. Everything was good except for the fact that the technician got a little sassy when he brought me my air filter that he said needed to be changed and I refused to pay for one right then and there. FYI — this is a common ploy most oil change stations use to get a few extra $ out of you… the air filter. While it does need to be changed during your car’s lifetime, it lasts for quite a while without needing to be replaced. Mine simply needed to be hit with an air hose for a minute and I had just replaced it not long ago, so I refused to pay $ 18 for a new one… he didn’t like this and got a little snide. I also asked at the end if they had rotated my tires (as advertised on the sign out in front) and he said that he «looked at the tires and they looked like they were supposed to» so they didn’t need to be rotated. Hmmm… could that possibly be because I normally have them rotated at every oil change? At this point I was a little annoyed and just wanted to get home, but if it were another customer he probably would have had an earful. I’m not a complainer but I will not return to a business that takes shortcuts and gets an attitude when you decline an «extra» service. $ 17.99 was a good deal for an oil and filter change but next time I will head to the place across the street for $ 21.99 and no hassle.
