Showed up today and was told my appointment was at 2:30, despite having two emails to the contrary. Bottom line, you have been warned. After my vehicle was inspected and work completed I am adding additional information to my post. I feel that their service/evaluation was thorough, and their communication throughout the process was exemplary. They are going to do follow up work on my brakes and I will see how that goes. I understand that anyone can have a bad day, and I think they deserve a second chance at a first impression based on how they handled the scheduling error, and their word-of-mouth reputation.

I have NOT bought a Car since 2006 and was never the type to Keeping Up with the Jones. Anyways I notice when going to work early morning my Chevy Trailblazer (Who I named Old Faithful) was reving really hard. As I continued to drive it out to where I had to go the Check Engine light went on. I had this problem before which is an Engine Misfire. On one of the Sparkplugs and Cylinders. I had contact my relative and she sent me to Midas In Eden Prairie, MN. Boy DID I MAKE A BIG MISTAKE. Midas told me I had to replace a whole cylinder head!! IT was gonna cost me $6k!! That is like a good used car! On top of that they we're inspecting other parts of the car that was not necessary! Unfortunately, I had to pay $122 for the diagnostic but I by change had contacted on Craig's List another Mechanic who referred me to Erik. I had told Erick and he himself was shocked at my story! He new Midas was BS-ing and I went to him. My engine was still fine! I just needed new spark plugs which he believed Midas technicians damage by pulling it out the improper way and new great quality coils which I should have don vs buying from Ebay. All in All I only spent $400 and my engine was running great. Please come over here! He won't rip you off with Lies about the car! 5 stars in my book especially coming from Chicago, IL.

He's also a straight shooter when it comes to telling you what's wrong, what needs fixing, and what could use fixing. There's no pressure to buy all repairs, Eric will tell you if it's a vital need now, or if you can try to get away with driving it another 10,000 miles. He'll still be there ready to fix it when you're ready to get it fixed. I drive between 25,000-35,000 miles a year and he's always helped keep my vehicles running well especially beyond their 150,000 mile mark. New or old he can help fix it for you.

They are not trustworthy. Took my car in for an alignment n to see why my back tire was wearing. As…read moreI had put on four brand new tires about 12,000 miles ago. They told me I needed front brakes immediately. Little did they know that I had just changed the all brakes/rotors so they were brand new. Told me my back shocks were bad and leaked out all the oil. Is why my one back tire was wearing. (ridiculous !!) And they would not warranty this new tire if I did not change the shocks. (why would a tire be warranty for wear anyway?) At this point, I did not trust them. So I paid for the alignment and a new tire and left. Checked my shocks. They had great resistance and there was no oil leaked out. Though they were rusty, but still great working condition as should be. The alignment they had done was bad as my steering wheel was sitting at 11 o'clock instead of straight up. I took it back in. They did the alignment again. And then told me that I needed four new tires is the reason the alignment went out right away. (it did not go out right away, it was bad from the second. I drove it off their lot because it was not done properly in the first place.) This guy should have at least looked at their history before telling me that I need for brand new tires to see that they had just put on a brand new tire two weeks ago. They lie and use scare tactics to have you do a service that you do not need. I would never go back. And I would never recommend them to anyone. As I sat and waited for them to redo the alignment, anyone that picked up their vehicle in that hour and a half, they were told that they needed this and needed that. So it is common practice for them to do this to everyone. I mean come on, why would they tell me I need to change my front brakes immediately when there was absolutely no wear at all on them because they were literally brand new. Had someone else look at my vehicle. The rear axle was pushed over to the side a a little bit. They fixed the problem. I borrowed my vehicle a lot to people who need it. Someone must've smashed a curb. Anyway, was the reason for that black Tire wearing. That is why I took my vehicle into St. Croix automotive in the first place. But was absolutely nothing that they did to have a solution for the problem that I actually had. All this makes me wonder if they actually change peoples oil and filter. Or just say they did, and charge them.
