  I took my car in because it was overheating while I was on my way to San Angelo(3 hr drive from here) they said it was my van and they fixed it although I’m sure they overcharged me I didn’t care because I didn’t have any other choice. But a few days later I come to find out I have a huge coolant leak!! I take it in to another Midas and they tell me that my radiator was not put back correctly. These people do g know what they are doing here. This could have damaged my car got good or put my life in danger. Don’t go here if you care about your car and your life.

  If you value your time and hard earned money, DO NOT GO HERE. I had my oil sending unit replaced here 2 days ago and was overcharged as you can see. They charged me $245.00 for a $70.00 part and $241.00 for labor, which should have taken them no longer than 1.5 hours. Later that same day, my low oil pressure light came back on...6-8 hours after getting it "Fixed" by Midas. I returned there today and was told by the staff that there wasn't an issue with my sending unit. They explained to me that my oil pressure valve/sensor in my oil pan was now bad and needed to be replaced. They stated this required dropping the oil pan (3 hours of labor) and would cost me $230.00 at minimum. After them telling me they didn't replace my oil pressure switch screen (Should be standard for all mechanics), I asked them to do so ($8.00 part). They stated this process still included dropping the oil pan (which it does not). You have to remove the sending unit, put the filter on, and putting it back in. By far the worst experience I've had with any given mechanic. The gentleman that worked the front desk was by far the most professional. One of the technicians reeked of alcohol and was extremely rude behind closed doors (Yes I could hear every word you said). Happy I was able to waste over 6 hours of my life to receive "The Midas touch."

  These guys are the best. Kind, quality service, transparent, and fast. The truly cared about getting me back on the road safely, and I️ will 110% be back. It’s not all about how much you paid, but the value you get from paying that amount. These guys provided so much value, and I️ should’ve paid more!

  I was there to get details on some suspension and brake system issues. Robert was fantastic about setting up the inspections (at no charge!) so I could know what was wrong even though I couldn't afford to have any repairs made that day. The mechanic on duty was also very friendly and was extremely thorough with his assessment. I was in and out in less than an hour, complete with estimate in hand. I've been to this Midas many times over the years but it's been a long time between. No matter who the manager is- or the crew - I am always treated well. I've never felt cheated by Midas for any of the services they offer, and this visit was no exception. The location is easy to spot, but has limited parking so I definitely recommend parking in the SIDE lot, not in front of the bays which face the busy street Broadway. And extra kudos to them for keeping the waiting area super clean. It doesn't smell of grease or tires. I was quite comfortable while waiting.

  Midas has my vote already, just because my first time here I was greeted by the General Manager. Any questions I had, he answered them honestly; I tend to ask questions I already know the answer to just to see if they’re shady. I also didn’t have to wait, they took my car in and are started with a free inspection first within 5mins. They did not try to game me, or play with my intelligence. I went in thinking I needed an oil change, about to waste money; come to find out it was a different problem entirely. Saves me wasted money, so that I can focus on the issue at hand. I have a BMW, and a oil change alone can run me $130. Even got the price down lower than what I was originally quoted for my real issue. First impressions are every thing! 💜 Also before I left, they did a second inspection just to double check that my car wasn’t leaking any fluids! EDIT: so after reading the reviews, I decided to do my own research on my parts. They ARE OVERCHARGING, I can get my parts for $300-$400 max; they’re charging me $1200 in parts alone! Take heed to previous comments!
