I came to Midas today after the urgent care at Cedars across the street. I noticed that my car was leaking oil (after an oil change 2 weeks ago). I think it was Rolando who first topped off my oil then they put my car on the lift with my sick mother in it because I didn't want to take her out of the car. They established that the drain plug was loose and sent me on my way no charge. It was very sweet and I recommend them for that. read more

A great place for an oil change and inspection. They are very honest and they don't try and make you get extra things fixed that you don't need. They are also pretty fast. read more

I have been bringing my car here to Joel for a few years now and I have to say without question they are the best place! I discovered them a few years ago when I had a car issue and found Joel who has been the most fair, honest, and knowledgeable person I have found. Joel always explains what needs to be done and even shows me and my husband the parts that need to be replaced and what the issues are if I have any. I have sent many customers to them and they have been extremely happy with their service too. My last car I had Joel found a serious problem that the dealership missed and by him finding the issue it actually saved my life. It was a gas pedal problem. My husband and I absolutely love them and have always had great customer service and would highly recommend them. Everyone there has always been wonderful and I find them to be very professional and top notch. Thank you Joel and your team! read more

Since going to Midas, I thought I was always getting the best service, and getting honest quotes regarding my car. Never did I think I was being over charged/work being done to my car was shabby work. Beginning March 2, I had my brakes and battery replaced. Even though I let things ride (my car not being finished in the period of time quoted, and wasn't worked on until I sat there watching them that my began to finally be finished, however I thought I am getting the best job done, and they will not try to take advantage of me. So after spending $700+ for that, my car stops 3 days later in beverly hills at 5pm. Being a female, Im freaking out because I just had a diagnostics, and replaced what was needed. I then had it towed again to midas, and they had it for another day to then tell me its the Alternator. Shocked, because I would think they will know if that needed to be replaced 3 days ago. At this moment, its not about the money, its the face that I need my car for work. However being a loyal customer I said, please go ahead. That was another $700+. I then get my car back and noticed when pulling it out of midas it was making this loud noise. I didn't think much of it until the second day. I drove back to Midas and Joel and I drove for 10 seconds and he goes- oh it sounds like the power steering. I said, what?? He said bring it back, and well do another diagnostics to see if this is the problem. I brought it back on Saturday, and while raising it- Joel and a short mechanic look at it for 3 minutes and come back and say its the power steering. I asked: How come you didn't tell me about this last time I was here??? It was making that noise when I left??? He said, "We didn't lift the car." Pathetic excuse. I asked how much? He goes $1625+. Im becoming fed up with how they approach this, I left and took it to the Lexus dealership, and spent an extra $2500 to get multiple hose replaced that were ripped due to their alternator work. So today- April 11, my car stops. My friend who knows about cars states it may be the starter. I am livid because when doing the alternator, if there is an issue with the starter, this should have been replaced with the alternator, as from what Lexus Dealership stated. They tie together. I called and spoke to kelly thinking maybe they will cut me some slack on the price knowing how much I spent and replaced- but no- it will be an extra $500+ with a $30 discount. Sadly, I believe I'm done with this place. Their mechanics are not experienced enough to replace or diagnose issues with all cars. Also, the alternator and power steering hose, after this I may have to report since I have the write up from the Lexus dealership. read more

Brought my car in for some issues with the brakes -- turned out to be much more serious than I thought, but Midas used a promotional coupon to charge me significantly less than it would have been. Then, when the part they needed to fix it wasn't going to be there for the next day, they lowered the price even further. Big fan of these guys! read more

Just came here for the first time after the Midas on Sunset reopened as a NAPA. Over the years I've really liked Midas for their very personable service, straight-forward assessments of my car's needs, price and warranty. Trusting my car to Harry at this location I had the same great experience. He got the job done right (brakes and wheel bearings) for a fair price and didn't sell me on extra work. read more

I really liked Midas for their very professional services, had a great experience and will highly recommend this Auto repair shop to everyone I know. Very loyal and honest, offering fair prices and excellent customer service. The owner of this specific location is a very kind person. Thank you so much!!!! read more

Such a nice manager Joel Prado! Thank you for all the guys in the shop being so nice, and getting my brakes done so quickly. You are definitely my brake shop from here on out. Honest, low prices, and friendly service. read more

Joel was extremely helpful over the phone and in person, the work was done professionally by the guys there, and the service was done with a smile, for that I am extremely happy taking my car in. The price surprisingly was lower than what other shops were charging, so, don't let the location fool you as it did me, the price is more than reasonable and the work is A1. read more

These guys are full of shit!!! I would never go back to these douche bags again. Charging me for stuff I don't even need. I just had a interstate battery put in two months ago and they're trying to sell me a battery then they tried saying I needed brakes and rotors and I told Harry "sir F*** you I just replaced all my brakes and rotors on my honda" so I got my keys and didn't even bother with them changing my oil. So I took my car right down to street to A.G.T. Auto with Bobby smartest decision I ever made. He told me everything was fine changed my oil, filled my fluids, and made me very happy!! I recommend going to Bobby great man. If you need a mechanic go to 8567 Wilshire Blvd. The shop number is (310) 657 4398 its at a mobil station can't miss it. Just be aware that once you go you will be a customer for life! read more

This place is supposed to be cheaper than the dealer, but I actually dropped my car off here, immediately AFTER visiting the dealer, and if you can believe it, this place tried to upsell me even MORE than the dealer did. I "need" just about every service they sell, and somehow, despite a "lifetime warranty" on brake pads, replacing them is still just as much, or more, as it cost the first time. They just jack up the prices, disqualify you from using coupons, and you are basically paying the same, no matter how many time your pads are replaced. It's such a shady, scammy mode of operating but I'm tired and I just want my car back and this is the second place already, so F it. Screw me and charge whatever you need. But to everyone else out there - save yourselves. Don't come here. read more

surprisingly impressed with the service. I always thought, why would anyone go to this place, in beverly hills, its prob way over priced. Ofcourse i got stranded one day with a flat tire and this was the closest place. very reasonably priced and they did the job fast. I guess I should never judge a book by its "address"! read more

Just met Ramos. He explained me in detail how and why it has to be done and prices were good. Great location and good service. read more

Whenever I had car problems I avoided this place like the plaque. I work across the street from here. I figured it'd be a rip off because its in Beverly Hills. A few times I had NO CHOICE but to use them. They actually did a very good job EACH time and cost was very reasonable. Same day service also. read more

I'm so thankful for the team over here at Midas. Not only do I trust them with my vehicle 100%, they are the NICEST people in the business. I would recommend them over and over again to anyone. read more

I went here to get an oil change and asked for synthetic and was told it would be about $70. I returned 1.5 hours after they changed oil and when I was paying I saw she only charged me $37. I asked her if she put synthetic in and that I thought it was $70 and she said she made a mistake in charging me, but that they did put in synthetic. On the paperwork it said regular, and she changed that to say synthetic. She then said it's too hot outside and she is feeling too lazy to cancel the charge so she let me only pay $37 when it was supposed to be $70 and she said your welcome. I didn't believe that she would give me that discount for no reason so when she wasn't looking I went to the mechanic and pointed at my car and asked what oil he put in. He told me he definitely put regular and he told me that's what it said to do in the sheet and that's what it said when he looked it up on the computer. So the woman at the front straight up lied telling me she put synthetic when they actually put in regular. Update: I don't think the customer service for Midas cares either. I wanted to send them my receipt that said synthetic, but charged at regular price through email. They can only file the complaint if I give them my cell phone # which I don't want to do because I don't feel like talking to them. So they aren't going to file this complaint with corporate lol read more

After failed repair attempt for exhaust they tried to overcharge for same repair second time.Had all had very bad aditude. I went on La brea and San vicente and they fixed for 1/3 rd of their price. Thats not good service. read more

Joel and his team are good guys. I have been taking my car here for a couple of years now and the prices are fair and the service is excellent. Not sure why the negative reviews are questioning their character here. I had my brakes done here and they were squeaking like crazy after just a couple of months. I took my car back in and within a couple of hours they had replaced my squeaky pads and even threw in a quart of oil because I was low, all at no charge. I plan on continuing to take my car here and have already recommended them to one of my friends. Good people. Good service. read more

DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY HERE! I became a yelp member to write this review alone! against better judgement, i dropped my car off for a brake service. of course the $189 standard job later turned into a $1200 job. Supposedly needed new tires, belts, front AND rear brakes, rotors, air filters, and a brake fluid flush. Brake fluid flush!? brake fluid doesnt even have a filter, why the hell would you need a flush? a top-off maybe, but a flush!? MORONIC. DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY HERE! Didn't take the bait but had to pay $20 inspection fee (that they'd allow to contribute to the brakes but nothing other, not even an oil change) AGAIN, DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY HERE! Supposedly my rotors were too thin to resurface(a later proven lie). minimum was "1025" mine were "1010" i asked, so thats what, a millimeter too thin? the filthy dirty rep replied "yeah" "really? its 1 millimeter?" he repied, "i dont know" then why'd you say yeah? and as a supposed "professional" why dont you know? DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY HERE! THIEVES! if you're alright with having your money stolen go for it. sickening to think that there are businesses out there who would blatantly TRY to take advantage of people. luckily i have a moderate understanding of vehicles and their mechanics. for those of you who dont, or even those who do, DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY HERE! if this review prevents even a single customer its well worth it, if the business falls out of business because of this, i'll kindly wave goodbye. read more

DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR HERE!!!! I have been a 10 year customer of this shop and the staff are great... the OWNER IS NOT ! 3 months ago I had my radiator worked on and recently noticed some drippings and took it back in. They found one of the clamps loose and replaced it. They parked my car outside and adjacent to a road known road hazard by them, they did not warm me of it and when I backed my car out, I ran into it. The owner came out and said that his guys normally warn customers to avoid hitting it, but took NO RESPONSIBILITY at all even though I was not warned. I told him that I would split the repair costs as I suppose backing out his business, even with looking in my mirrors, the hazard in my blind spot, I somehow should have noticed... THE OWNER HAD ZERO CUSTOMER SERVICE and for that reason, BEWARE!!!! What happened to the customer is always right? Don't take your car here because if there is an issue, the OWNER will screw you!!! read more

Midas - Filed report on Midas... Consumer beware - Auto Repair Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

I took my wife's car here for a brake inspection right before closing time. I knew the brakes were bad, and was expecting the worst. Joel offered to do the inspection and call me regarding the estimate. I left it overnight, and within an hour, he called and told me the news. It wasn't nearly as bad as I thought and Joel actually offered to do the job after-hours so I would be able to pick the car up that night. I gladly accepted and within 2 hours, the repair was done, paid for, and I was driving it home. Great customer service! read more

Serious concerns about the level of competency at this place. I brought my car in for a standard brake job and when I left I heard this chirp coming from the tires/wheel well and a dull grinding noise when I picked up the speed. When I brought it back they tightened up the bearings (exacerbating the issue rather than correcting it) which seemed to help with both noises for a few miles but the noises came back louder than ever shortly after getting on the highway. Needless to say, I was seriously concerned and no longer trusted the service I was getting. I brought my car to the manufacturer/dealer to be inspected and they discovered that the bearings were so tight on one of my rear tires that it was unable to turn. Essentially I was dragging it down the road. I can only imagine what kind of stress this has put on other parts of the car. I will never bring any vehicle back to this MIDAS. read more

I crawled in last last Saturday, in a Porsche Boxter, pretty well devastated that a 'helpful' friend had topped off my brake fluid with antifreeze. According to Porsche, this was a four-figure repair. Fortunately, I did not pump the brakes, and made it to the closest garage i could find -- Amos's Midas. Amos was there right away to provide comforting assurance: "If it's fixable, we'll fix it, don't worry, just have a cup of coffee and relax. Easy for him to say!! 45 minutes later, I saw my car being driven out for a test drive: 'WHAT!!!??' All done my friend!!! And $111 later, I was back on the road, care free. And I'm not really as stupid as I look, so I went to Porsche on Monday, the same one that quoted that four-figure service, for them to inspect and make an official determination: "ALL GOOD -- WHAT DID YOU END UP DOING?" Well, I answered, I got super lucky, and met Amos and the boys at Midas. Thanks guys, you're really the best!! Wish I lived closer, I'd come very time! read more

Beware of this place there is a crook sitting at the counter wants $110 for an alignment. Every other place is at $60 to $70. This guy did not even want to get up off the seat to come out and check the car. I would not give even a star for this toilet. Beware den of thieves!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

yesterday may have been the first time i've ever had my oil changed&not heard i needed $1000 repairs. *wow* such a great feeling...such great guys, they're honest and get the work done on/ahead of schedule. read more

They did a good job nut now my hubcap is missing

This place is awful. Staff isn't friendly and the place is disgusting. I dropped my car off for an oil change on a slow day and they informed me they would be done in 45 min. I came back an hour later and they'd had not even started the job. My advice: GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. read more

I had been experiencing some issues with my breaks before bringing my car here. I had an idea of what kind of work the car would need and this Midas location was spectacular in meeting my needs. They were extremely helpful, respectful, and professional. They kept me updated on a finish time and accepted an online coupon after the work was completed. Harry at the front desk was exceptionally accommodating and helpful from start to finish. I definitely recommend using this location as I will be in the future. As a woman, I am often hesitant to visiting the mechanic alone in fear of getting ripped off, but I did not feel that way here in the slightest. They were up front, honest, and very comparable in prices to any other place. read more

I went here for a simple tire patch after driving over a nail, and they did not do it correctly and my tire was flat the next morning. I called AAA because I couldn't even drive on the tire to take it back to Midas and the AAA guy looked at their patch job and said it was cheap and no wonder it was not holding up. He then patched my tire up right then and there in a fifth of the time it took Midas to patch it and it has held up since. This Midas uses cheap materials and unfortunately puts lives in danger by sending people on the road like that. Do not go here. read more

Will be reporting this location to the BBB & any other org's. Pure fraud. Took my Honda. Bait & switch sales tactics, with nothing actually being resolved that was damaged to begin with. Mis diagnose a problem & charge to fix. Amos, the manager, will call you with a high pressured & overpriced sales pitch. The mechanics are ALL rude. The only genuine person may be Joel @ the front desk. Will never allow this place to swindle us again. read more

I have been taking my car to this Midas location for a few years and have always been impressed with the service and prices. Joel, the location manager, is always polite, helpful, and most importantly, HONEST. This is the highest badge of honor for anyone in a service industry known for price gouging and taking advantage of uninformed customers. read more

Do not go to this specific Midas location, but if you do, please get a second opinion!!!! My car was making a rattling noise so I took my car to the nearest Midas because I know that my muffler has a lifetime warranty here. After they told me I needed a new muffler and I said that I have a warranty with them, they started pointing at random things under the car saying I also needed a bunch of other repairs that were going to cost a total of about $600. Thankfully my father was with me who is knowledgeable about cars. These people started listing items under my car that my father has never even heard of--obviously trying to take advantage of me. We drove to another Midas (in Tustin where I am temporarily residing) and they replaced my muffler FREE OF CHARGE and said that was the only issue. Steve from the Tustin location REALLY made my day. $0 is a whole lot better than $600. Very upset with the Beverly Hills location... read more

Harry is the best!! I never write Yelp reviews but Harry & his team deserve a huge shout-out. I arrived 10 mins before closing on a Saturday, in desperate need of an oil change. I expected to be turned away, but Harry promised me that they would stay late & take care of car. This was on top of the 2 additional customers ahead of me! What a great team! I will definitely be back. read more

These people "fixed" my brakes not even one year ago. The other day I was driving with a one and three year old and the brakes completely failed. The mechanic informed me that whoever did my brakes last (Midas) gave me cheap, crappy parts, even though I paid over $700 for these brakes. I do not even care that I have a warranty on this crap, because I do not want brakes that almost killed two young innocent children to a company who ovbiously just wants your money. Midas is horrible and their staff just lies to get money from the customer, and they're lucky the accident wasn't too bad ans those kids weren't hurt. Losers. read more

I always try to appreciate people who help me even when it's something small. With that being said,Joel is a great asset to the Midas team!! I called and spoke to Joel on the phone about how I needed to replace my high mount brake light. I had tried to replace it myself but the light bulb was stuck. So I went in and Joel was able to replace my light in seconds!! So thank you!! I will definitely be back!! read more

This location prices flat fixes at $30. But they wouldn't repair my flat given a law that says my puncture hole was too close to the edge and I had to instead buy a brand new tire from them. I went somewhere else and had it repaired in one hour for $18. If anyone can find that law, please post it here. Thank you. read more

One of the worst experiences I have ever had with a business in my entire life. This has to be the cheapest, most unprofessional scum of a body of shop in the greater Los Angeles area. The owner Amos, is a disrespectful business owner with no business morals. I brought my car in for a break pad replacement, I got my car back and after 24 hours my car was making a loud noise, I thought my car was breaking down or a wheel was loose. I immediately went to the Beverly Hills Lexus dealership to find out what was wrong with my car. I got the diagnostic and was informed that Midas had put in after market pieces, which were not the correct size break pads, that's not even the worst part, the breaks were missing a shin kit ( the piece that holds the break pad intact). I took my car back to Midas and explained to them the situation and the job they have done wrong on Friday the manager Joel, told me to return on Tuesday after Memorial Day weekend, meaning I wouldn't be able to drive the vehicle for four days. I went back to Lexus paid an additional $1200 to fix the original job and everything Midas had done wrong. Amos gave me no guarantees, he never told me he would fix it and never took responsibility for the bad job he had done. He is extremely rude, disrespectful and a scumbag. I would not go back for any car service if you paid me. I am taking this man to court. I did some research and found that this was it his first dishonest encounter. He has robbed people of their money using these dishonest tactics in the past. Several other auto body shops and distributes do not work with him either because of his dishonest ways of short handing others. I do not advise anybody to ever go to Midas body shop on La Cieniga and Wilshire, all of his proves are way over priced. You get terrible service while fixing your car. They use all after market pieces and the owner will do everything in his power to get as much money out of you and scum you for a simple service. read more

Please, please, please do not go to Midas! It is in their best interest to get away with, and charge you more on your car repairs as humanly possible. They will readily look you in the eyes and tell you, your car needs this and that, when it really doesn't need it. Even if you decline, they will figure out a way to get you back in there and screw you even more! Their mechanics are shoddy at best, and they take full advantage of your mechanical ignorance. Do not go to Midas. Beware! read more

These people are bonafide rip off artists. DO NOT take your car here. I was told that a simple electrical test (that, incidentaly, most auto mechanics will do for free or a nominal fee) would be $97. I have had other friends ripped off by these people. A simple gas station will give you a more realistic estimate without all of the sloppy, dodgy immigrant attitude. read more

I went to get my oil changed here yesterday. During my five minute drive home, my engine starts billowing black smoke.Even after pulling over and turning off the car, it continued to smoke for about 20 minutes. After getting it towed to the dealership, they tell me nothing is wrong with the engine, but whoever changed the oil just spilled oil over everything inside the engine and didn't bother to clean it off. This caused all of the smoke. Dangerous. Will not be going back. read more
