Tom was also great, courteous and a pleasure to work with as well. I will definitely return to this location for my future car needs and will highly recommend to my family and friends! read more

Go anywhere else. Especially if you're a woman. They are the rudest and very condescending (Brent the AM will speak to you like you are stupid). I just spent $7000 on massive repairs (the labor costs were insane) at this location only to get my car back and have it rattling... which it wasn't doing- they told me they didn't hear it. Now a month later the check engine light is back. Do not bring your car here. Maybe this post will get some attention from the owners. read more

Come to find out the car battery they sold me for over $300 installed is some cheapo 24 month battery. So, yay, you, Midas.... you got my $300 but have lost any repeat business. Nobody likes feeling ripped off. If you are going to charge that much I would expect a quality battery, not one I could buy at Walmart for under $80. read more

I've been going to this location for a number of years. The latest was an oild change for my new vehicle. Scheduled on-line for next day appt. Everything went smooth. Sat and waited, not too long. Free water/WiFi made the time go quick. Free tire rotation and $20 off for a full synthetic oil change. Price was in-line. Service was great. I'll definetely be going back. Although a new car, these guys are my local shop. Thanks Brent and crew. read more

Tom, Brett and the guys have always taken care of our vehicles. Now since we had to temporarily move away I'm so skeptical to let anyone else touch my jeep. So don't hesitate to go by and see them for any of your car issues!! Miss you guys!!! Thanks for all the great service over the years! read more

Showed up for appointmen. fully asked and stated I didn't want inspection. he then explained they put it up and do and inspection. never was I told my vehicle would be taken off lot and driven around. the driver was gone for more time than normal and I was already not happy that someone was off driving my car. Florida is untrustworth! Letting an hourly paid mechanic take sometijng they can never afford blows my mind.. never was told even after expressing I didn't want or need an inspection. clearly stated I just want an alignment. explained they have to go drive it around I stated well they should tell someone that you are allowing someone to take the vehicle off propert.. then I was told to leave and they wouldn't work on my vehicle for expressing my concern. read more

These gentlemen are so helpful, so kind. I locked my keys in my solstice trunk, and I did not think I had an interior release button. I called several places and they could not help me. These men were so kind and didn't even ask for a dime to help me, but I still tip them. I am very grateful for this establishment. I will use them in the future. read more

Had several items to be checked and possibly serviced. Brent promised a call within a certain time frame with an assessment and estimate. And he was right on time. As expected several things needed repair so chose to have them do the complete rundown. And again, their promise as to when it was to be complete was beaten by a full day. Brent was patient as he explained everything that needed to be done and gave me time to review before I committed. Highly recommend! read more

Fast friendly service at a reasonable price. The staff was very considerate of my time and requests. I called a day early and provided the information for my new tires and they were ordered and delivered the next morning. I arrived at this location and my car was immediately taken in for service. I was in and out within an hour. That's great service. This location has some 90 days same as cash offers that can really be helpful when your funds are low. The staff continuously provided updates as the work was being completed which allowed me better planning time. The lobby was quiet so it actually allowed me an opportunity to get work done. All of my questions were answered and I arrived back at work with a necessary task completed. This is a place I would recommend if only for an oil change but definitely for other vehicle maintenance. read more

Midas - It's time for new tires - Auto Repair Near Me - Bradenton, Florida

I took my car into Midas for a major repair. They gave me the usual run around. Oh you need this you need that. I said fine go ahead and do the repairs and we will be settled for $3100. Well i prearranged a pickup for all of my old parts after the service was complete. Well now that day has come and all of my parts aren't available for pickup. Weird especially after talking with an ASM. Well they fixed the original problem but they definitely broke something during the process. They refuse to take responsibility for the damaged part. This place is not customer friendly and will try to drain every dollar they can from their customers. Do yourself a favor and stay away. read more

Just moved to AMI in need of a battery. Tom was very nice and accommodating. Highly recommend!! Will do future business with them.

I stopped in today because I had a rear brake light out the manager was very helpful and changed my rear brake light I believe his name was Brendan not sure don't remember he changed my brake light and did not charge me for it which I greatly appreciate read more

A shout out to Tom at Midas in Bradenton. Needed an oil change and was able to get my car in right away. Received a nice welcome by name as I entered the shop, had two people work on my car to quicken my wait time, was informed I needed a new air filter, tire balance, and new wipers, and was out of there in under an hour. Will return whenever my car requires work. My experience was very positive and FAR better than the local Ford dealership! read more

CAUTION -- This is a dishonest auto repair business that at least preys on older females. My wife took her car here for alignment and oil change after replacing tires. They offered specials for these services. Obviously this is to lure customers into this franchise. But they are looking for much more money from their customers. The newer vehicle only has 32,000 miles, but according to the the fraudulent technician - the vehicle alignment was way off and he needed to replace some bolts (???) as they were worn in order to complete the alignment adding over $500 to the bill. The car is under warranty so we took it to the local dealership. The verdict? No alignment was needed, and the dealership had no idea what bolts these thieves were talking about. Avoid this place - all costs! read more

Terrible customer service. stained the seats and refused to clean. Rude assistant manager.

Brought the car in for repair of a slow leak. Midas was not able to repair the tire because it had some insulation for noise and smooth ride. A replacement tire was offered for the next day. The tech who worked on the tire said he removed a nail and could not put it back in, but he said he inflated the tire to 60#. By the time I left the lot it was 18#. I stopped on the way and pumped it up, but it was 2# when I arrived at home 1 1/2 mi away. Midas did not offer to put on the spare tire which would have been the right solution. My dealership said that they can repair the tire, and I have an appointment tomorrow. read more

Just walked in to the office with my mask on for an appointment. Three men talking in the office, no masks. After I stood by the door, one put on a mask. I stayed by the door another minute and the other two put theirs on. We have a mask mandate. Poor COVID protocol. I left prior to service. No mask, no service, works both ways. read more

4:35pm: UPDATE: Tom the manager called me after he saw my two star review. He was genuinely concerned with my complaints and agreed to make immediate restitution: he offered me a refund, he will change the waiting area to acknowledge COVID, he expressed sincere regret and wanted to make things right by all his customers. I admire his efforts, willingness and good intentions. So I changed the review to four stars. Strong customer service recovery! Here below is the original review: IMPORTANTLY: This business has made zero accommodations for COVID-19. Nothing, not social distancing, no hand sanitizer, no acknowledgement for the safety of their customers. SERVICE: Dropped my SUV off at 2pm for oil change and fluid check. Said it would be done in an hour. They called back at 3pm to recommend balancing tires and repairing the rear differential. The car was fully checked six months ago, adding new tires. I experienced no shimming at highway speeds so probably didn't need balancing. The car was still on the rack without the rear tire. But since they had rotated the tires... I begrudgingly agreed. Checked in with my auto mechanic at home. He said to not worry about either issue, they were up-selling me. Too late. Another hour has passed and I'm still waiting for my car. So far, not a good experience. read more

Great experience super friendly efficient and delivered services on time. Will be back!

I am so grateful for this place. Brent was so kind when I called 30min prior to them closing about a slow leak I had in my tire that was totally flat when I left work. He told me to come down, found the nail right away and took care of the issue for an incredibly reasonable price. I highly recommend this place! read more

Needed new tires on my car. I had the tires on hand but with a few hours left during the business day, I was in a time crunch. I was VERY happy that they were able to squeeze me in. The desk staff were friendly and accomodating, and the technician did a great job getting the tires on quickly yet effectively. What a relief for me. Paid the fees for the tire mounting, no hidden fees, no extra charges. Highly recommended. Good help is hard to find. read more

On our way to vacation in Florida over the Christmas holiday, we drove thru a housing development and picked-up drywall screws through two of our vehicle's tires. We went to Midas-Manatee for tire service - an excellent choice! Brent & Tom at Midas determined that all of the tires were worn to the point that should be replaced rather than repaired. (They were much less than 3/32" tread, so this was a proper assessment.) Our tire size is a bit uncommon, but Midas made an effort to have them delivered the very next day. When we returned, Brent & Tom made sure that we were only without a vehicle for a little over an hour. (We simply walked down the street and had a delicious breakfast.) We are so very appreciative of the fine service that we received. I would certainly recommend this Midas location. Both Brent & Tom were fair, courteous, and provided prompt service. Thank you!! read more

I went to fix a simple problem with my car and they told me i had an issue and it would cost $100 to fix but when I took it to my cars actual dealership they told me the piece I needed was 5 dollars and would only take 5 minutes to do myself. Don't recommend unless you want to be scammed. read more

Mgr Tom and staff were efficient and my synthetic oil change/tire rotation was done at a fair price. I discovered a small oil leak 2 weeks later and called Tom. He said bring it in immediately tomorrow 8AM and he'd jump on it. He found a loose gasket which he immediately replaced at no charge! It's a classy operation that jumps on a problem that quickly. And, they're really nice people in that Manatee Avenue facility read more

I brought my car in for a basic oil change. I was greeted by the manager. I was told that since my car takes synthetic oil it would cost 65.00 but there was a 10.00 coupon. They changed the oil and rotated the tires. My total bill with tax was 64.00. I drove off and light showed up on my dash saying the tires were not balanced. I went back to Midas they adjusted the tires and reset the light. When I left I called the dealer to see what they charged for my new Honda Fit to get an oil change they quoted me 42.00 I was so surprised the dealer was less than Midas. I really feel taken advantage of. Then guess what the tire light came back on. My opinion is Midas should be better trained on how to work on new cars and they should be more competitive with their prices. I will not be returning to Midas. Buyers beware! read more

I go to Midas all the time! What started me going was I had previously taken my car to a "respectable" garage regarding my brakes. I went to Midas had my oil changed and was getting an alignment done. Going back to the garage I had previously went to, they had my car for a whole day! I went to pick up my car from the garage, they told me nothing was wrong. While getting my alignment, at Midas, Forest the manager had asked ME if I had a problem with my car. I stated yes, Forest then asked me what the problem was, I told Forest that my car jerks when I stop. He showed me that my rotors were shot! Thank goodness I had the money to have it repaired. Point being, that I would have never known that. I have always since, gone there. These folks at the shop are awesome. I can't say enough about Midas on Manatee Ave.!! I hope you do recognize the good work these fellows do. read more

Do not ever go here. The manager is jerk and they will rip you off. We were quoted 10 times the amount for a thirty minute job with parts. I ended up doing myself and that after hours of them holding my car hostage. Total waste of time and energy. It's ok to make a profit but this was well beyond and rediculous. Skip this place read more

Me and my mom were regulars here going on 3 years. We had even a Midas credit card with them and usually were handled by Tom the manager who WAS (past tense) helpful. Was having problems with the car and brought it in and had the absolute worst customer service ever with Brent. Not only did he lie to us about the service he could do on the car, tried to push a larger service expense to drain our pockets, but he talked over me and my mom and he had the audacity to establish his masculinity in a conversation where I told him we would prefer to handle the situation with Tom the following day saying "I'm a grown a** man and Tom is going to back me up". Back you up? Suspicious.....We've been coming here because as women we felt comfortable and taken care of but Brent was AWEFUL and cocky. He also lied of his position saying he was the manager when he's only assistant manager. Then after $400 later to find out the cause of the issue and a quote of $5000 repair and hearing nothing from Tom, we decided to take the car somewhere else. Leaving that same day we were approached by a macanic there offering us $1,000 cash same day for the car... SKETCHY BUSINESS. AWEFUL!!! Thank god we took it somewhere else because it only cost $200 to ACTUALLY fix. Brent also tried to say the Turbo exploded (which I've now been informed doesn't truly happen) in the car and it was caused by mishandling (revving the engine for long periods) saying I caused the issue when it was just simple part our new mechanic explained that wasn't working as it should. NEVER EVER TRUST THEM WITH YOUR CAR OR YOUR WALLET read more

Always gives opinion on my car, never pressures me to do repair but gives honest recomendation and all options. They have told me when no repair is needed as well which is much appreciated! Some repairs were free as well. read more

I went to have my oil changed at lunchtime today. I was greeted by a kind gentleman when I walked in. I had no issues whatsoever. Not only did they change my oil but also rotated my tires. I was done and back to work in no time. The kind gentleman behind the desk told me about some other services and some recommendations for the next time I come in. I read more

Midas is the best. They have been working on my 1995 Ford Escort for many years. Their prices are fair, and they don't just make recommendations to fix things unless they are really broken. The customer service is tremendous and everyone is friendly yet very professional. read more

Management here as well as the mechanics are great. Forest was very informative and explained everything they were going to do so I was comfortable with what needed to be done. I was given a quote before the work was done and it was exactly what I paid at the end. I highly recommend Midas on Manatee. Great job guys! read more

I have read the other peoples reviews, for example oil change for $19.99 and they were charged extra for other items. Let me tell you if the old change says it's $19.99 how do you think the company could make money out of this. They have to pay rent they have to pay labor and they have lots of other expenses to pay. So when I go for an oil change I am willing to spend around $80-$100. I think this will be around the fair price so I let them add extra items for example air filters and other necessary parts. If you were to change oil with $20 the company is going to be bankrupt so customers whining about the high prices in oil change Think twice before you post your message. Today I went for my second oil change and again I had a wonderful time there. I spent $90 for an oil change plus brake lights plus engine air filter I think it's very very reasonable, even with this amount the profit they make is minimum. read more

I took my vehicle for an alignment, 2 new tires, and brakes on a Friday and told them I was driving out of town on Monday. When I picked up my car, they said the printer which attaches to the alignment machine was broken. They showed me a picture of the alignment screen and assured me it was good. I drove it over the weekend and it was not aligned. I went back on Monday at 10, they aligned it by 3pm. They gave a print out. read more

I took my 2012 Jeep here for a oil change and as I checked out they said the changed the oil and rotated the tires. On my way home I thought how could they of rotared them without my key to my wheel lock how did they... Well on my way home they called and asked me to come back cuz they forgot to put my engine cover back on. Never plan to return!! read more

I called early in the morning because my wife's car had a flat, they said they could pretty much get me right in. The employees there were extremely friendly & took care of the flat with a permanent patch. In and out in less than 30 minutes, I couldn't have been happier. I will use this Midas location for all my future auto needs! read more

Had them do 69.99 alignment on my truck. .they had it for three hours called back and said that they needed camber bolts basically this is bs My car is stock not lowered or lifted just new ball joints. .. so they tried to bill an extra hour of labor i said no thanks they seem to prey on people that don't know about cars or that are old and took my car to tires plus and for 59 bucs they aligned my car. ... also guy in office tried to sell me a house but hes not a realtor so he's prob scamming people read more

I love these guys. They tell me what needs fixing now and what can wait. Then they fix it right the first time. Good people doing good work, beyond the expected, for sure. Thanks Forrest and all your excellent people. read more

Had a great experience here getting new tires for my wife's jeep. The manager, Forrest was more than helpful and went out of his way to get the tires in that I wanted. We will be back to get our oil changed in the Jeep and will probably have any other repairs that need to be done to our cars done there. Thanks Forrest for the great customer service, read more
