Brake Shop Midas reviews
18They took forever and overcharged me. I had to go to another shop in order to fix the problems they made. NEVER go to this place.
They lied about replacing the oil, they never changed it, yet they still charged me. They replaced the brakes with cheap off brand pieces of junk and they overcharged me (by a lot). My mechanic laughed at the work they did on the brakes and said they probably won’t last more than a couple months. DO NOT GO HERE.
It's been a long time since I had competent, reliable mechanics. The team is courteous, knowledgeable and they care. Just the sort of people you would want looking after your vehicle.
I have had brakes, suspension, and maintenance performed at this location. Head and shoulders above the competition in the area.
This shop put a regular customer at risk because of a policy designed to sell tires.
I have been a customer at this Midas for 5 years now. I use it for basic things like mounting tires and oil changes. I have always appreciated Chris and Jeff's customer service and the shop's competitive prices. On Wednesday I brought in a set of used winter tires to be mounted, because my wife had gotten into an accident in the snow with the older tires I had on the vehicle the day before. One of the tires was damaged, but they refused to put two of the winters on the back of the vehicle because they were seven years old. What business of theirs is it how old the tires are? They were in fine condition. Of course, they offered to sell me another pair.
So now I had to drive into work today in the snow and ice with bald tires, until I can get the winters mounted tomorrow morning at another shop.
Thanks for nothing. You won't be seeing me at your shop again.
I went to get a inspection and check engine read the first day he told me noome was there to work on my car i needed to reschedule yhe same day i went driving by and otjwr people cars where being serviced the next day was my appointment they drove the car to the back amd came bacj and said my car was leaking oil amd five codes came up when they used the code reader and i should take it back to the place i brought it long story short i went to another shop nothing was wrong with the car but a spark plug.if its a hassle working on black peoples cars than maybe u should put a sign.wasted my time and there very unprofessional
Midas is the best! Every place is gonna cost you money but they've always treated me right and Jeff and the crew are awesome! Great job guys!
Honest, humble and dedicated. Chris is your man.in a world full of çhaos and uncertainty people like Chris keep
Humanity alive.those stuck in dire straits will definitely relate.
This is the most honest auto repair shop in Ithaca. Best prices on repair work and tires.
A lot of people don't understand what it takes to repair your car properly. These guys are NO BS. They will show you exactly what is needed and why.
First employee I dealt with was not very good at communicating what he meant by they didn't stock items, thought I'd have to come back. Then after i accepted service he said the parts could be there in 30 minutes. He should have stated that first. The second employee was very good.
They lied about work needed. Went in to see what was needed to pass inspection. He (not sure name) told me my back tires fail inspection and so do the rear brakes. Being a previous mechanic and NYS inspector, I decided to fix the brakes myself and what I found was that only one side needed brakes and that my tires, even though worn down, they still had more than the 2/32 tread. So to pass inspection I needed one rotor and pads, not 2 tires and complete set of rear brakes. Cliche lying mechanics. At least he didn't charge me.
Terrible experience my bill was almost double from the quote I was given without even a phone call to let me know what was going on.
Always all staff are kind, helpful and friendly.
One time I brought flat tire, they fixed free for me. And technical help is amazing.
I moved all my car service here from Magire -.
Peter Weeks horrible customer service and professionalism.as his own person or being the manager of Midas that's an extension of Midas this is more specifically about that employee. Picking and choosing when to be fair. And hold standards. Would not recommendthis company because this individual is the manager and unfortunately I have to trust my mechanics and I would not trust the decision making skills of this person. The rest of staff I had no contact with.
I moved to the area in June 2018 and I went through a few places before I found Midas. Their service is always fast, they explain anything they find wrong AND take you into the shop to show you exactly what it is. This morning I woke up to a flat tire and I called Midas, they got me in immediately, patched my tire and had me back on the road in less than an hour. They have my business for as long as I’m in the area and I always recommend them to anyone who asks. I seriously can’t say enough good things about the team at this location!
Brought in our 2010 Prius for a second opinion on an exhaust system repair and Midas came in $2K below the dealer's quote. Even completed the job below the estimate. Very friendly accommodating staff to boot. We are very pleased and plan to continue to use Midas for repairs
No oil after oil change!
Really? Had to pay for an oil change with oil filter and oil was bone dry for weeks before my wife realized it was never changed. Thankfully it didn't do any permanent damage to her block! Thanks for the "WORK"!
My review is more about the professionalism of an employee! I wanted to exemplify the professionalism and workmanship of peter I have been sitting here for a good long time getting my car worked on.and watching him interact with employees and costumers! Peter is the example of great customer service and worker relations! He has gone above n beyond each and every costumer including myself! I would come back here anytime thanks to his wonderful attention to to his costumers and his strive to make sure your issues are attended to car and personal thank you so much for the enjoyable experience PETER!
Scammers that tell u things are wrong with your car that are really good parts. (I use to work there so I know)
