    SCAM ! SCAM! SCAM!
    Anthony G.

    SCAM!! SCAM! SCAM! I came to this location for the 2nd time this week to get an oil change for my wife's car this time. It was about 4:00pm . The guy at the counter said they had time and I handed over my keys to the mechanic who was in the lobby at the time. They were slow and there were no other customers . He pulled my car into the bay and I could hear him opening up the hood and working on it . A few minutes go by and the mechanic comes in and starts speaking in another language to the guy at the counter so I look up at the mechanic and he tells me there is a problem that he wanted to show me. So the three of us go out to the car, it's up on the lift and they have me walk under the car and proceed to tell me the drain plug is broken , the threads are either broken and that it just keeps spinning. As I'm watching him spin the plug he is spinning it in the opposite direction as if he was tightening it. They told me they would have to break it off and that the oil pan would need to be replaced as well. They asked if I wanted to proceed and have them fix it. I said " no not right now I'll just leave" . They give me a quote before I left for $705 , I look up an oil pan for my car at most it's $234 . The paper I was given said the part was $428 and $285 labor. I left and went back home. The next day I get under my car to look at the lug myself which I found was loose and I spun it to the right three or four times and it tightened . I just took it to my normal mechanic shop(using them for the last 10 years)today because I figured if there was more to it I trust him and they will fix it. I didn't tell him what Midas said about the drain plug and oil pan being broken and needing to be replaced . I got a phone call from my normal mechanic today . They said they performed the oil change and never mention once anything about the plug or pan. Those guys at Midas tried to play me that night hoping I wasn't car smart and would just let them sayfixsomething that they most likely would have never replaced . I will never come back here again. It's sad that you can't just go get an oil change without stuff like this happening . It makes me wonder how often this location has done this to other people.

    Went to get an oil change but the technician forgot to tighten the bolt. The protective shield fell off but they did not want to take responsibility. Asked for their names so I can field a complaint with corporate but they refused. The manager claims their names are private. Had to call the cops. Don't go to this Midas on Thornton. Bad service and bad technician

    I got a flat tire on Halloween night after work, most of the place have closed at the time. I was lucky I was still covered under warranty below 36k, Honda roadside assistance came out to get my spare tire on. I called Midas by my home, and the person on the phone was very resourceful and able to help answer my questions, get me the quote and appt on the same day. I'm pleased with the service.

    No coolant. The reason why the low coolant dash is on.

    Absolutely awful automotive repair experience. Please stay away. Got a kid (can't be older than 8) running around playing in shop too! A simple question of "where did you buy coolant from, so I can top off the low coolant that you guys left? I have a low coolant light on directly after getting my coolant system fixed." Instead of telling me where. He rather argue and get loud with me. It's a closed. Pressurized system and I'm quite familiar with it. I'm getting over being sick otherwise I wouldn't have brought to you. Without questioning his 25 year experience mechanic couldn't have made a small mistakes and it's a lil under filled? No. Wanted to justifying by saying " maybe it over heated" within the 10 minutes of me driving? We filled it fully they claimed That's impossible! Also, just because it took your mechanic longer than expected isn't the customers fault. It could be the mechanics experience with that certain engine. Or just made a simple mistake. Wish I went somewhere else. Honestly anywhere else would've been better. 1,100$ later, argued and got loud with a customer, also topping off my own coolant after they serviced my coolant system is my experience.

    I went here for an oil change when they had a promotion during the Fourth of July. I was in and out in less than an hour. I went in the morning and there were no lines. The staff worked with me regarding my needs (I didn't want to get my tires rotated because I didn't have the time to stay there). The staff was very nice and patient with my requests. Will be going there again!

    A nail clearly in my tire.

    See all

    My father was there and he had to return 4 times and they tried to charge him over 700$ for a muffler. An absolute rip off. Do not go here.

    I had two completely different experiences with Oil Changers today…read more My first stop was the Winton location, and unfortunately it was the worst customer service experience I've ever had. The employee who appeared to be the supervisor or second in charge was very unprofessional. I didn't have my service card with me, but my information was already in the system. Instead of simply looking it up, he refused to help. When I asked for the corporate phone number, he gave it to me, but then told me I needed to back up and move out of the way because other customers were coming in--even though there weren't any waiting at the time. I left feeling frustrated and disappointed. I called the corporate office and spoke with Mike, who completely turned my day around. He was patient, understanding, professional, and genuinely cared about my experience. He listened, reassured me that what happened was not acceptable, and made me feel confident that it would be addressed. I truly appreciate the way he handled the situation. He then transferred me to the regional manager, who was also courteous and helpful. Mike recommended that I visit the Oil Changers location at 4088 Thornton Avenue, Fremont, CA, and I'm so glad I did. The experience there was outstanding from start to finish. Every employee was friendly, welcoming, and professional. A special thank you to Ramin, who checked me in. He took the time to explain everything my car needed, clearly broke down the pricing, and never pressured me into purchasing additional services. Instead, his knowledge, honesty, and professionalism made me feel comfortable choosing some of the recommended services because I trusted what he was telling me. That's what excellent customer service looks like. I'd also like to recognize Daniel and Andrew, who were both incredibly helpful, kind, and professional throughout my visit. They went above and beyond to make sure I had a great experience, and their positive attitudes did not go unnoticed. The teamwork between everyone at this location was exceptional and made me feel like a valued customer. The entire team at the Thornton Avenue location was knowledgeable, respectful, and made me feel confident that my vehicle was in good hands. I left happy, confident in the work that was done, and grateful for the outstanding service I received. Thank you to Mike at Corporate and to Ramin, Daniel, Andrew, and the entire team at 4088 Thornton Avenue, Fremont, CA, for restoring my confidence after such a disappointing experience at the Winton location. Because of all of you, I'll gladly return to this location for future service and will recommend it to anyone looking for honest, professional, and exceptional customer service.

    Went to oil changers for an oil change first thing in the morning…read moreDan greeted me instantly was nice and pleasant. The other three guys were very nice. They were clean. They were respectful. They went out of their way to make sure that I didn't need anything else with my car. The guys were informative about when I should change my different fluids the guys were quick and efficient. This is the best place to go for an oil change. I have been coming here for eight years since I moved here from New York and this is a great spot.
