I bought a used Honda CRV at the end of February from a Honda dealer. Called numerous times to get an appointment that fit my schedule but to no avail. Drove past Midas numerous times and decided to give them a try. The Midas representative who assisted me was very knowledgeable. He explained to me what needed to be done and why it needed to done in order to keep my car in tip top shape. I plan on returning to Midas for future car maintenance. read more

I had taken my car here before where the regional manager had helped me and he was really professional. I thought I'd found a place where I could get honest service and a good price for my oil changes based on my first experience here. Unfortunately I was wrong though. I came here yesterday for my second oil change with them. Their mechanic lied saying that I needed new spark plugs and the cashier tried to get me to get the service. I know that this was a flat out lie about needing new spark plugs because I just got new spark plugs for my car last year from The Garage who does all my car work outside of oil changes. I don't know if they said that because I'm female and they thought they could pull a fast one on me or that their mechanic was just trying to make some extra money out of me or that their mechanic has no idea what a spark plug looks like when it needs to be replaced. Either way though they were lying about my car needing new spark plugs. I didn't want to make a scene though so just declined the offer for unnecessary expensive work on my car from them. Midas, seriously...just stick to oil changes and quit lying to your customers about work that their cars don't need. read more

The staff at this location is soo great! Customer service is a key to a business and your staff is soo knowledgeable and kind. I am truly soo happy that I now found a new location for my vehicle needs. Thank you for all help!! read more

Wouldn't leave a star if I could, Alex at the front desk was the most disrespectful, off putting, bad attitude individual I've ever come across. Worse than all Fast Food restaurants when it comes to customer service. Speaking as a Shop owner, it's a bad look on Midas for having somebody who is at a front counter like that. Won't be coming back nor recommending this shop. I work in customer service and this was not acceptable and I'm taking this higher than a yelp review with his bad attitude. read more

From the moment I called Shawn treated me very nicely! As a woman it's harder to find trustworthy mechanics but I really appreciated him. They ended up not charging me for the small work they did because it was really simple fixes and I was in disbelief thinking no one would do free labor ever but wow. Happy happy! read more

First time going here to get an oil change. Customer Service was great! Also witnessed the manager handling a delicate situation with extreme caution and consideration of the case the other clients very happy as well. I had my doubts but this will be my changing oil spot. Wait time was within normal range. read more

Updated review: AVOID THIS PLACE. WOMEN SPECIALLY. I gave these guys another try because I live right across from them (convenience). And they did a pretty good job at installing my new tires. But it also happened that I needed a new Rim. They quoted me $498 dollars for a USED rim (1 rim) and a little over 700 for a new one. I called the DEALERSHIP and they quoted me $324 for a new one! And My mechanic quoted me $94 dollars for a used Rim. What a fucking rip off. No thanks guys. I understand you need to charge me more for a rim, but 400% more? Never ever recommending you guys. I will tell all my neighbors about your shady business practices. Milton, Rob, Josh.... Shame on you guys! Ps: I even spoke to their technician/mechanic prior to getting a quote and he told me they could get me a used one for my a little over $100 dollars. I don't drive anything fancy btw, an 05 jeep. read more

The technicians here have questionable integrity which makes the untrustworthy. Brakes are covered under warranty but they do not do check the brakes regularly for customers who drive a lot of miles. They allow the customer to wear down the brakes so they can continually charge for pads and rotors. Unfair business practice the customer looses every time this happens and these kind of employees lessen the value of the business as a whole. read more

Please beware of going here. Before going to this place I asked how long it would take to finish an oil change the guy said about 45 minutes to 1 hour and then I went there 12:55pm and until 1:55 I patiently waited they have not started working on my van. So they will lie just to lure customers but not delivering to their promises. Don't waste your time going here if you value your time. read more

2nd review...sucks that you have to put stars...if I could, I'll put zero... I'll do my good deed for the day and just leave out what I have to say and let KARMA do it's job. There's a reason why this place is 2.5 stars. If anyone wants to know more of my experiences contact me: datytewn@gmail.com. I know you're going to respond and all that but honestly, just do the right thing and service people in a good way. Thanks read more

Stay away from this place! Avoid at all costs. They made a mistake and the owner tried to charge me twice for his own mistake. The mechanic even felt bad and pulled me to the side and said, "don't let him charge you for the second time it was our fault." Good mechanic HORRIBLE PROFITEERING OWNER. ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE read more

This was literally my first time going to any type of vehicle maintenance place. Everyone here was super helpful and kind. I needed to get my brakes checked, and replaced because they kept making a sound. They checked it for me and told me there was nothing wrong, my rotors were just a bit rusted. A lot of the reviews on here mentioned Midas and employees trying to cheat you out of your money, however I experienced the complete opposite. The employee that helped medidn't at all try to cheat me or trick me. He told me what was wrong and recommended not to change anything because I really didn't need it and it would be a waste of money. I ended up getting my brakes flushed. Thanks so much Midas-Daly City! I'll see you for my next oil change. (-: read more

I would highly discourage and not recommend going to this Daly City Midas. The last two times I'd brought my car in for an oil change, there would be a new issue brought on by or related to the oil filter. The last time, there was an oil leak due to a loose oil filter housing, brought on by poor/incompetent service from this Midas location. Just read the reviews from Yelp and Google for more additional testimonies on this location. read more

Summary - Ronnie at Daly City Midas - fantastic, extraordinary, 5-star!!! Manager at Redwood City - the opposite - 0 zero stars and an embarrassment to Midas. Details below: I had a horrific experience with the Midas in Redwood City who fixed my front brakes (which then required more work in Chicago 6 weeks later). When I returned to Redwood City Midas the front brakes needed to be redone (calipers that were replaced were leaking!) and the manager would not honor any warranty because it was 2 weeks past what he said was a 3-month cut-off. Not only did he want to charge me $800 to redo the Midas work he was rude, condescending and WRONG. I was appalled. He then warned me that I could not leave or my life would be in danger (aka - I might go elsewhere!) He was right. I then went to Daly City where the manager Ronnie understood the situation and did everything possible to successfully help me get my brakes fixed with the warranty (which reads one year on the paperwork). Not only was he respectful and helpful, the Daly City shop was a joy to be around, very upbeat and positive - completely the opposite of the atmosphere in Redwood City. They have a popcorn machine and drinks and while I was there a few customers came in to bring food to the workers for the holidays. Not surprising, they are well liked. How two shop owned by the same company (Midas) can be so different is mind-boggling. Thanks to Ronnie and Daly City Midas, I have a much higher regard for the Midas name and wish they would do something to reward those who give them a good name (and get rid of shops that do the opposite such as Redwood City). A big shout-out to Ronnie and Daly City Midas and thank you so much for coming through and assisting me at a time when I really needed it. read more

I stop by Midas in Daly City to get an oil change. Wow! I'm very glad I stopped by wonderful customer service. Smiles every where they did a fantastic job. I recommend this business stop in make an appointment check it out read more

Do not go here to get your tires replaced. I took my Nissan Versa here about a month ago to get all four tires replaced. Once my car was done being serviced I left the lot and almost immediately my tire sensor light came on. Unfortunately by the time I picked up my car the shop was already closed so I took it home and parked it. The very next day one of the tires on my car was completely flat. I just got brand new tires- how?! I took the car back to them and they told me I must have caught a nail on the way home. Keep in mind my drive home was only 3 minutes away. I thought what are the odds of this but I had a warranty on the tires so I was only charged $40.00 to replace the tire. When my car was done being serviced the second time I drove off the lot and once again my tire sensor light came on. This time the shop wasn't closed so I turned around and took my car right back. The guy at Midas tries telling me "Oh you must have caught another nail in your tire again". I call BS. Thankfully one of the mechanics insisted on checking the car out again (he knew something wasn't right) and lifted it because the guy at the front desk was just trying to put air in the tire again and send me home. He also mentioned that "I'll probably be back". Why don't you do your job then and fix the issue? I just don't understand. Keep in mind the dude at the front desk just kept talking about how he injured his arm and how he's in so much pain, had to get surgery, and he went on and on. Dude please just fix my car and let me go home. Later I get a call from him and it turns out the valve stem was somehow broken. They charged me an additional $40.00 for the valve stem even though I believe they were the ones who were responsible for breaking it in the first place. My tires weren't losing air that quickly when I first took it to them. I was done with them at that point so I just paid for the service and left. I will not be returning ever again. What should have been a simple service costed me a lot of money and time. DO NOT COME HERE. read more

I called these guys at 1:30pm on a Sunday, and the got me an appointment within 1.5 hour. Kyle, Cody and their team got me in and out in a timely and fair manner considering the last second appointment asked for. They were very knowledgeable, helpful and honest with their estimates and evaluations. I really appreciated their honest in regards to my car's maintenance and condition. Thanks, guys! I'll be back. read more

This place I strongly do not recommend !!! I took my car for a free brake inspection and ended up with a bill of almost $500.00 for only one axle even thou it is listed on the board at $249.00, lifetime warranty. The people working in this place are all thugs with no scrupulous or conscience. When I asked questions they were rude and unwilling to help you out. To make the story short, I ended up upset, with a huge bill and screws in my tires. They place the screws strategically on the side of the tire so as to make me buy new ones. UNBELIEVABLE!! BUT TRUE !! They are thugs, not decent working Americans, working for a living. I will never set foot on a Midas place as long as I live. I have and continue to share my nightmare in any way I can, so as to help people make a smart decision. Worst place ever. The only satisfaction I get out of all these; is that whoever puncture my tires will get their pay back three times over by "Karma". read more

The slowest people on earth. For a basic oil change, i have waited more than an hour from the time i came in to the time i pay. Do not come here for oil change. read more

Tried to make an appointment but no reply, they did a really good job the last time I walked in for an oil change. Oh well next

First of all, NOT closed, but everyone would be better off if they were. Also, they open super early (8am). 2 days prior, I emailed requesting a synthetic oil change quote. Online it says they reply within 4 business hours. I didn't hear anything so 2 days later I called in and thought I was lucky to get an appointment the same day (I wasn't). Excited to have a productive lunch break & with my online coupon in hand, I show up to the empty office where I am told to wait...then I am served after a man who also has an appointment at 12 for an oil change, that arrived after me. That was my first problem... Then, as I'm waiting, the man helping me (Melvin or something) prints out a check list of maintenance I desperately "need" following my very small comment about the price of the oil change. (I wouldn't have complained if I had gotten my quote, or if he told me prior to the moment of paying). Also, how do you know about maintenance my car needs? You haven't even looked at it...That was my second issue.--Mind you, this vehicle had just been seen by my trusted mechanic back home prior to being driven up to San Francisco from San Diego. He said the car was perfect, just to get an oil change when the miles are equal to the sticker.--So all of this was really unexpected, and I knew this guy was trying to milk me. Anyway, as I'm sitting down reading a book Melvin comes over and hands me this list and says it's maintenance I should get "If I can afford it." Wow, I didn't say I couldn't afford it, just commenting on my surprise at the price for an oil change, for I KNOW I could've gotten a better deal somewhere else, also because I failed to get a price quote! The only reason I didn't go somewhere else is because I'm up for an oil change and new to the city with a car. I didn't want to come here, but I just wanted my car taken care of promptly. Very irritated and not to mention, offended. Definitely NOT coming here again. Oh yeah, those assholes even damaged my car. They parked too close to the pillars used to lift the cars, then repeatedly opened my door into it making dents. When I called they refused to listen and said I did it. They don't deserve your business, nor do they care about running an honest business. Oh, and they also didn't update my sticker for when I need to have another oil change. Thanks. I'm sure that oil change must've been a lot of work. Real great job. ---------- UPDATE: I forgot to mention, my car made it back down to San Diego perfectly, and continues to run great. SO GLAD to be back with my TRUSTED mechanic who doesn't try to take advantage of my lack of knowledge of cars. This Midas can suck it. read more

As a new driver, and + a girl, I am not at all hands on mechanic or a car fixer so I had to come here to change something minor. and I was charged 425 dollars. unfortunately, at the other shop they told me they would charge me 120 dollars for the same thing. I have mentioned to them that I do not know what the problem was, and must've seemed like a perfect candidate to screw. and Guess what? Midas did a great job at ripping me off. I was so upset afterwards. I would never learn of this, if the other shop didnt offer me to fix the same problem for WAY LESS. but it was way too late. DO NOT BRING YOUR CAR HERE. THEY ARE NOT HONEST PEOPLE. read more

My car only needed an alignment, and they couldn't do it because supposedly it didn't pass the ramp even tho I came here before and saw them with my own eyes going through the ramp, made me waste my time completely, and took them 4 hours to let me know they couldn't complete it, absolutely terrible service never coming back, apparently Ford Focus is too "Low" for this place, could fix the problem with only putting something under the tire, too mechanic inclined to do this ‍ TERRIBLE, if they had a 0 rating that would be mine. read more

This place! I was afraid my car wouldn't start back up when I turned it off so I rolled on a Friday afternoon. They did the diagnostic and replaced my battery within an hour and a half. I fully expected to be hung up all day. Super nice people. Great service. read more

negative stars they are suppose to be specialist at brakes, when when replacing the brakes with new ones the new ones make metal to metal sounds louder then the old ones avoid at all cost, when took the car back they sed it will go away just need to break them in.. AVOID this midas service - super negative fail price $$$ just go down the street there are several other mom and pop shops that will do it for cheaper read more

I'm very disappointed! My first attempt to do an oil change was on Sunday at 4:30. Oil change doesn't take more than 10 minutes. They denied service on Sunday at 4:30. I came back next day, at around 1:30, they informed wait time is about 2 hours. I came back again on Wednesday, they told me they don't use my Groupon for service. I canceled, and I'm never coming back to this location. read more

I've seen Midas in Daly City for a long time but never had a chance to use their services. Finally last week my friend asked me to take her car in for an oil change. The manager was very friendly and professional, and my friend's car was ready while I waited. The manager asked if I could complete an in-store survey, and I got it a 5 stars highest rating. Just a few days later, her car over heated and broke down in the middle of the freeway and had it towed to an auto shop. They found out the cause was insufficient coolant, and it cost her over $700 to repair and might need a new engine. Midas' oil change includes checking all fluid level. Apparently, the mechanic overlooked it. Double check your fluid levels before you leave the shop. read more

Was quoted for new front break pads for $199. They insisted on a "complimentary" checkup, where they took all 4 wheels off and determined that a car with 20k miles needed the rotors to be machined. Ha. The new quote was $465. We said, "no, thanks we just need break pads." They talked themselves down to $365. We called their bluff and picked up the car. I put new break pads on the car for $36 in 35 minutes. Guess what!? It didn't need rotor work. Literally zero wear. Rotors last 50-70k miles. Scumbags wasted as much of our time as their own. They could have installed the pads in 5 minutes with the wheels off, but they tried to use wasting our time as leverage to charge us more. We called the bluff. We saw it happen in the lobby to other customers while we waited for them to put our wheels back on. Their system is lure you in w a deal, get your car on a Jack, and find more problems to Jack the price up. And if there aren't more problems, this is evidence that they will make up problems to Jack up the price. The manager is actively teaching his scumbag system to a young woman. Wish I read the Yelp reviews before booking an appt here. read more

Made an appointment for oil change and appointment was accepted. When I showed up they denied my service.

Recently someone recently stole my Catalyst so I wasn't able to drive it. I had no idea how to handle the situation so i called midas and they let me know they could definitely help me out. Check in was simple with a worker named Milton who then checked the car and noticed they had tore a few other things as well. He layed out the plan and started researching what catalyst fits with my specific motor. He was very thorough and ordered the part right away. The car was ready soon after then. Super pleased with my experience here and I'm glad I came to this Midas as Milton was very efficient and helpful. read more

I've been waiting here for 2 hours almost 3 hours for a rear brake replacement. There's four guys and all I've seen them doing is walking around inspecting the car. I do not recommend anyone to go here. Expect a 2 hour+ wait. If not 3-4 hours. They don't care about their customers. read more

You know its bad when the guy whos doing your alingment doesnt know how to change your windshield wipers lol i have a K&N intake on my Denali and they told me i needed a new air filter REALLY!! It was comical I went on a sunday and needed an alignment bad for a trip later that day and that is the only reason i chose Midas but never again, Stay away guys this was a couple months ago btw read more

Really nice guy working the counter. Brakes were in need of some sort of repair. After about a half hour waiting for them to take a look I got the word. About $750 in brake repairs. OUCH!!! So I called my local garage in my old hometown. $450 for the same repairs. Ummm, yeah I am cheap enough to drive two hours on shot brakes, whats the worst that could happen??? In the end, if you have a local guy you trust you are always going to get a better price. If you don't I would go with a chain like this one. read more

Took my car in a few weeks back to get my brakes checked since they felt a little awkward. Turns out my brake pads were cracked or something, who knows. Anyways, $200 and three hours later they were fixed. Luckily they were able to get me in that day, so no complaints about that. I give them two stars because upon seeing my car at home, (after my mom picked it up for me), I found a zip-tie on my right rear hubcap that was not there when I dropped it off. No one said anything about it, so I wondered why it was there in the first place. I found out two days later when I was driving through Millbrae and my hubcap fell off and was only secured by one zip-tie. They broke my hubcap during the service and didn't bother to tell my mother about it. Thanks Midas, because if I would have gone on the freeway and it flew off and killed somebody/caused an accident, I would have been one happy customer. So now, I have two zip-ties securing my broken hubcap thanks to Midas. Good job, guys! read more

I've been going here for 5 years plus and have been nothing more then a great and understanding customer and a big spending customer. Today I was treated unprofessionally after I made an appointment a day prior to my arrival. I needed new tires and they failed to extend their service into getting me new tires and recommended me to go else where after they told me they did not have my tires in stock. When I scheduled my appointment I asked the lady on the phone if they would have my tires before I got there and she said she couldn't find out until I arrive (which is a huge lie and the decision was based on the employee being lazy not to check before my appointment). Not only did I lose money for the time I took off work to be at my scheduled appointment, but they also wasted my time in having to search for another tire spot, instead of them outsourcing a tire for me and ordering it. The manager called me after I called corporate to make excuses for his lazy employees and didn't offer to accommodate me with anything after being a loyal customer for 5 plus years. The manager has a bad attitude and can care less about his loyal customer. I would not recommend any come to this place. Their bad reviews speak for itself. DO NOT GIVE THIS PLACE YOUR BUSINESS. read more

I got a standard oil change here. On a pretty light day, I was in and out the door in forty minutes. The oil change was supposed to come with a tire rotation, but I was disappointed to hear that the front two tires were too new to be rotated. Overall, I can't complain: the service cost $19 including charges and tax. This shop makes most of their money from big service jobs, so expect the "courtesy check" that comes with an oil change to uncover a few problems with your car. read more

Everyone here is so nice. I have gotten my brakes done twice here (front and back). I called on time at 2 PM and asked if they could still do my brakes, and they told me if I came in right away they could squeeze me in. Normally I have to wake up at 9 AM on my Saturdays to get everything done without a 5 hour wait, so being able to sleep in is amazing. The second time I had come in, they called me a few days later and told me that they were sending me a coupon for a free oil change to thank me for coming in. Free! For doing nothing! It's not like I was some VIP customer, so I was pretty excited. They are really nice and honest there, and keep me entertained while I wait. However, I took one star off because when I cam in the first time they told me that I had to get my back brakes done at the same time. However, I still had 6 months or more on them, so I waited. But hey, I guess it's better safe than sorry with your brakes. read more

I'm always skeptical about car repair places but this place was very welcoming, open, professional and polite. They even have a big screen television playing cartoons for the kids waiting as well. I scheduled an appointment and came in about fifteen minutes late- but they got me next on the que and said I would be done in about 15-20 mins. read more

This place is the worst, plus today I received a call from the manager, and was trying to blame me and tell me they did a good service, but in reality he was a jerk, no customer service at all, no understanding, now I see why the staff is like that, they have the full support of the manager, because he is a jerk! I already put in the past this ugly experience and he comes and say they did right!!! I asked him why they never left a voicemail??? He didn't know what to say.... Don't recommend this people... read more

Getting ready for a cross-country trip and air conditioner acting up. Made an appointment online for Sunday. Got a call 1/2 hour later letting me know the a/c tech was there today but would have the next 2 days off. Great customer service. They were able to get it in today, compressor was fine, just needed servicing. Ronnie and crew were professional and handled everything quickly and got me on my way. Thanks Midas! read more
