They said I needed a battery. I knew for a fact it was working perfectly. It was checked by two other shops. They said I needed tires, but they were in good shape. DGM read more

Brought my Audi in for a quote and left thinking I accidentally wandered into a high-end luxury car dealership's fiction-writing workshop. I rolled in asking for a simple spark plug quote and a free inspection. What I got back was a masterclass in creative writing: a casual $4,900 estimate to fix literally everything on the car, including a completely fabricated $2,400 suspension overhaul. When pressed, they couldn't give me a single percentage, measurement, or reason why all four corners of my suspension were supposedly shot--just a cheerful "recommended!" Translation: "We saw an Audi and decided to see if we could hit our profit margins for the quarter on one car." They also tried to upsell me on a magic "fuel induction" service and charge me extra to swap a cabin filter. If you want an honest mechanic, look elsewhere. If you're looking for a good laugh and want to see how many random services a shop can duct-tape to a single invoice, Midas on 43rd Ave has got you covered. my Audi in for a quote and left thinking I accidentally wandered into a high-end luxury car dealership's fiction-writing workshop.

DO NOT GO HERE !!!!! The manager Steve is the worst guy to deal with and his team isn't any better. Steve doesn't know how to manage his team or his time. He won't be honest about the work being done on your vehicle. Steve will try to squeeze every dollar he can outta you. SKIP MIDAS AT ALL COSTS read more

If I can give zero stars I would... I took my car in to get my alternator looked at Steve helped me first did an oil change, got my car back my right headlight was out quoted me $185 to come back and diagnose it after service keep in mind was working before service. I come in the next day manager Brian T. Was there I explained after service it was out he said well $hit happens like wtf kind of customer service is that. He tried to charge me based off Steve's quote I explained I checked fuses and connector when I got home so when they checked, that's exactly what they put on the report. I said I'm not paying $185 for an issue I checked myself they basically kept my car for 4 hours did a visual inspection and said I need a new headlight. I got my headlight electrical tested and welp it turned on. Horrible service, horrible team just hustling for money out of their customers. Before I left the shop he zeroed my account out and said never come back. You got that right never going back to $hitty service they need better management. read more

Midas - Report - Auto Repair Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

See all

******AVOID THIS LOCATION!!!!!****** I do not know how they have any five star reviews. I went in for a simple oil change. I saw online that it was $40 for synthetic which is the only reason I came in. I told the manager I only wanted an oil change because I did not want to be taken advantage of. They have my car for all of ten minutes then tell me I need $350 worth of replacement parts and labor to even do the oil change. He tried to scare me saying that if I went anywhere else and they did it my car would be leaking oil and the problem would get worse. Okay. Sure. So I tell him to take my car off and give me my keys. They refused to do the oil change if I did not get the other work done. So I left and went to Take 5 and guess what!! They did it no problem and no leaks. Avoid this location. This is one of those slimey car places that will take advantage of you at every turn. read more

Made an appointment to get an alignment for my truck. There are two customers ahead of me and I'm listening to the conversations, the manager guy, I guess, who I felt was over charging and over selling his unique ability to save you money, while being over charged. (I work in a auto part industry) It went from one hundred and something for the alignment, then found other repairs that need to be addressed, they honestly do, but over a thousand dollars for rear shock replacements! Looked up repair cost while sitting there and I called my mechanic(doesn't have an alignment machine) and told him what was going on and was being charged. He said "boss, that's way to much, just remember what parts you need, I'll do it for a lot less than that, that's just to high for that repair." Well, I told guy that I did not want to proceed, I feel that it's to much and just lower my truck so I can leave. It got heated he told me to "get the F*** out of his store!" he yelled, "don't come back!" Iol I walked out and called The Glendale Police department, strated talking to an officer, the manager guy, walks out into the bays where the mechanics were, I'd been standing in the parking lot and I asked him are you going to lower my truck down so I can leave? He yelled, "I'll give you your F****** truck back when I decide to!" He literally started walking towards me saying, "I'm not the one, I'm not the one", I told the officer what he was saying, the call dropped suspiciously lol Well after sitting on the 3ft hig walled fence for about 5-10 minutes they finally lowered my truck and backed it out to the park lot, didn't leave the keys in the truck I had to go inside and get my keys from him after signing that I'm not being charged for anything. While standing there signing he asked "You're not going to stick around for the police to show up?" I said nothing, he called behind, "me don't you want to receipt" I walked out to my truck and left. The guy literally got pissed off because I wouldn't let him rip me off! lol there was cameras there, I'm sure there's video footage of everything that took place. So no I will not recommend anybody going to that place. The guys a shyster! I'm ordering my own parts like I normally do to take to my mechanic, especially since I know what needs to be replaced. Silver lining? I'll take it! read more

They misdiagnosed my car and replaced the fuel filler hose when it should've been the cracked emissions canister. They discovered the crack after replacing the wrong part and now they want to charge me again to fix the right part. Took it to another shop and it was fixed for much less and car passed emissions. read more

They have limited equipment to perform comprehensive analysis of potential issues. Might be a good place to get your muffler repaired or replaced but don't rely on this place to repair anything more complicated. They tend to over promise and Overcharge. Beware! read more

I took my car in to fix my A/C. They were responsive and helpful, and tried to get my car in as soon as they could. They did a full inspection free of charge, and reported the status of the rest of the car. I ended up replacing my entire A/C as well as brake flush, fuel induction and power steering fluid replacement for $255. They were quick and my car is running well and cold! read more

I called ahead for a transmission fluid change. I was told they had time in 15 minutes if I brought my vehicle right away. I arrived in ten minutes and my car sat from 10:17am until 1:30pm. They began the work to change the fluid and my vehicle was not ready until 2:50pm, where the manager behind the desk began to type something into the computer and had me stand there for another fifteen minutes due to him attempting to sell me a oil change(new oil change I purchased 4 days earlier at a different business), a sway bar linkage change, brakes(quote $667), rotor boots for the A arms, front struts $400, cabin air filters (which were changed out six months earlier), new drive belts$338). When I kept refusing additional repairs he began telling me how I was putting the public at risk and how he could not in good conscience let me leave without fixing my brakes. I finally was able to leave Mr. Norris' shop. I had my brakes fixed at another shop that observed a lot of transmission leaks. I called Midas on Monday and asked for a Tuesday return to get my transmission looked at. They agreed to look at my car on Tuesday afternoon. I returned and when Mr. Norris heard I had my brakes fixed on Monday, he stated he had to know where I went and what I paid. I told him it was not his business. He insisted that I tell him. I told him which branded shop, he wanted to know the location and what I paid. I said that is none of his business. He came out from behind the counter and started walking toward me telling me I had to tell him, that he needs to know his competition and how his employee used to work for that particular company and how all of them lie. That I was lied to about the transmission leak. I explained that the staff showed me where it was leaking from several locations and pink liquid was all over. He began to tell me it was over flow accumulating on the vehicle wind shield below the car. That it was not a leak. He kept walking toward me, so I walked out of the shop out to the parking lot and stood a distance away under a tree. He walked clear out next to me under the tree still badgering me for information. I kept saying it was none of his business, that the transmission issue is his business, to take care of that. I felt scared and attacked by this big burly man. I kept walking away from his location and he followed me. I have never had someone come at me, insisting I give them information about where I took my vehicle for brake repairs. I will NOT return!!!. read more

The manager is a great speaker. He falsely made me feel like he wasn't a crook like everyone else in Arizona. He then charged me around $744 for brake repair. Said I needed 4 other things that all costed over $1000. Now, I have been paying for 9 months on these overcharged brakes. I am in debt because of this store. I just wish people could actually have integrity and not rape us of our hard-earned money. I hate this state. read more

Midas - Clean shop, I was running an hour late and the manager Steven was still able to get me right in and out with no problem for an oil change. - Auto Repair Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

Needed an oil change I was in and out in no time. Needed an air filter changed out as well super quick!

I got the runaround from my car dealership wanted to charge me $378 for something so minor. Ended up going to Carlos yet again at Midas. Him and his professional team took care of me had me in and out in less than an hour. He did exactly what the dealership would have done but for 68 bucks!!! The dealership wanted to charge me extra fees and extra add-ons Carlos cut straight to the case this is what I need to be done, and this how much it's going to cost. I feel like if you always need a second opinion when it comes to your automobile please I suggest you come down to Carlos at Midas! He would not give you the runaround, he's a professional and he'll help you save money! I would like to say thank you again to Carlos and his team you guys are amazing and if anything comes up in the future regarding my car I will definitely be back. read more

Been coming here since I started college at GCU and the service is outstanding every time I need it. Carlos runs a tight ship and he and his crew get everything done on time and his customer service skills are exceptional. Will continue to trust the Midas Touch when I need maintenance done on my car. read more

Went in for an oil change this morning. Was told my car needed full synthetic which i have never needed prior to today since it's an older car. ($19.99 now turned to $39.99) which i agreed since what do i know about cars? After they took the car up, they came in to ask if i've ever had any issues starting car recently.. i had not. They stated i needed a new starter because they could not get the car to start.. i was quoted $475. i did not plan on having this issue come up suddenly so i said i couldn't do it.. they sugggested holding off on the oil change and they would "attempt to start the car" in order for me to get home. Car started and they got it down and pulled it around for me. As i get in, the guy had said my check engine light was on. Again, never seen this come on in the 3 years i've had this vehicle. Came home and turned off car and went to restart it and it started fine. Now i have my check engine light on which is frustrating..on top of not having my oil changed and the time i wasted going there. read more

Went in for a transmission flush. And they said o needed motor mounts . I happened to have a be neighbor is does light work on cars and had him check them there brand new !!! Crooks ! Glad I left!!!

I was told on the phone that it eould be $189 to change my brake rotors. When I got there they wanted to charge me $957. I left and they still charged me $30 even though I alreadu knew what was wrong with my car. read more

I would not go back. The experience left a bad taste in my mouth. Businesses should never discuss politics, bash our president, and in general be disrespectful and rude with their customers. I did not even initiate the conversation shockingly this time. Ha! The man behind the counter was reacting to the TV on in the lounge and believe you me I was very shocked by his attitude. You never know how people feel or who they support do you? Keep that conversation away from people who just want to run their darn errands. I guess the service was okay if not long in my opinion. I do think they were being a bit dishonest/pushy with me on upgrades though. It is nothing I could prove or put my finger on exactly. However, normally I go to my dealer and they keep excellent records. What these guys were telling me just did not coincide nor make sense. Like I said I could be wrong since I am not a mechanic. But guess what? I can gladly give my business to any of the million other shops in the valley that show professionalism and respect. read more

Went here a few weeks ago. Manager tries to get me to pay $1300 for 4 new rotors, all new brake pads, and an oil change. I went in for pads and an oil change. First of all, beware of this tactic. They will tell you a price, push the paper in front of you and hand you the pen. This is supposed to make you feel obligated to accept and sign. Don't fall for it. I saw the $129.99 brake special in front and when the guy asked how much I was willing to spend I told him $129.99. He basically laughed at me. I point to the sign and he said "well, that's just for one side" I gave him this knowing smile. The "you're full of shit" smile. So two sides would be $260, right? Why are you trying to charge me $1300? I haggled him down to $350 and that was his bottom line. That's still more than $260. This guy is a crook. I don't remember his name, but I do remember his name tag was stapled onto his shirt and he is the New York accented, bifocal wearing, manager. Oh, and his favorite line is "We're still cheaper than the dealer!" haha be careful, this guy is a salesman and not a mechanic. Btw I got a new rotor for $70 Front brake pads for $25 And had my other rotor "turned" for $30 Went to my brother's shop and did the job myself. read more

FANTASTIC staff & service-TOP NOTCH! No up selling, just quality work! Read my review & see.. I had JUST flown in from out of state, to buy a used older vehicle - picked it up & took it to this location to do fluids & inspection before my 8-hour drive back. They Did what I wanted, explained everything & did not try to up-sell me or push other services on me that I did not need--but nicely did explain some items that may need attention soon (& showed me). Jonah the manager and all of the staff were utterly amazing- we had fantastic conversations & he even offered me some home cooked food when I asked about a restaurant in walking distance. Tech was great also-younger guy, he explained everything to me & was honest about all items. Car I brought in is a lifted truck with big tires & much custom work, not easy to work on & hard to reach the Engine bay. I was worried of any tech anywhere getting a bit frustrated with how hard it is to work on, but this one really enjoyed it & told me "he had never driven one of them"!& was excited to just pull it in & work on it. Would definitely recommend and come back myself. I made my 8 hour drive back no problems whatsoever. read more

I had a tire that was giving me a hard time this morning and was low on air. Michael assisted me in putting air in it. It turned out the tire wss bad and wasnt holding any air. Without hesitation Michael put my spare tire on for me. It was nice to have a guy help me out and I wasnt even a paying customer. He was very professional and pleasant to deal with. I want to thank him again for helping me out read more

My experiences at this location are always good. Today on my lunch hour I needed help with my taillight. After going to a completely different business near my work that couldn't help me, I hauled butt over to Midas where Tyler came outside instantly, took out a screwdriver and replaced it for me in 5 minutes and I was on my way back to work. Friendly guy, definitely happy I came here once again. Today made my experiences here just a little bit better. Thanks again Tyler!!! Denise read more

Came here to have our truck looked at for a coolant leak, told it would be done by the end of the week but actually had it done th same day, the heater core was replaced and went in and paid to get our truck back, noticed a couple things out of place and figured they'd be in the truck, got home and further inspected the truck and found a crack on the dash, tabs and inserts missing and interior pieces misaligned/crooked, dirty foot prints and finger prints all around, as well as a personal item missing from the truck, basically like the truck was rushed through, went back to address our issues and was called irate, not even showing aggression at all, was cut off a couple times and had our concerns downplayed and just felt disrespected and was talked down to, very unprofessional and disgusting experience especially for a manager, a person the company saw fit to mange the store would handle a scenario in such an egregious manner, called back about matter after leaving and was disregarded over the phone as if we were just trying to get free work, called corporate office and got to the district manager who really just gave us an "sorry YOU feel that way" at that point we really did not wanna pay for the work we had received and had it disputed, was told due to the dispute they cannot issue a refund for the work and wasn't given an answer if we had dropped it, BUT was alluded that we would try to TAKE their refund as well as our credit card company to have double the money, for ONE that is literally fraud, and TWO credit unions literally remove their adjustment once received the merchants refund, so didn't appreciate having thought As if we are trying to con them, since then they have been avoiding contacting us back and are giving the cold shoulder to us about any sort of compensation other than a "I'm sorry you feel that way" and getting a two worded "we're sorry" from the owners, I say again, most worst experience I have dealt with, with any business as we matter of fact, PLEASE BEWARE and chose wisely where you take your vehicle for you automotive needs, will never ever do business with Midas again read more

Brought my vehicle in for check engine light (and when you shut the car off the oil light goes on). Had approx. $450 work done on the engine, filters, including oil change,etc. Check engine light was off for a day then came back on. I told the manager and he said bring it back in. He ran some codes and told me it needed more work so I would have to have them do a diagnostic. Well, they did a diagnostic already (or should have done the diagnostic) when I brought it in the last time and spent the $450. I trusted them and gave them one more chance. This time it was $793 for crankcase, fuel pump filter, etc. The next day the check engine light came on and when you shut the car off the oil light comes on. Car is still not fixed. Called the manager and he said bring it in again. You gotta be kidding me really??? Either they don't know how to fix this vehicle or are trying to rob me. I think they don't know what the issue is and are clueless how to fix it. Either way, now after almost $1,300, my check engine light/oil light is on and who knows what is wrong with it. I cannot go back to this shop and now have to find another place. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED AND UNHAPPY!!! I even called corporate and they said "it's all under warranty". Cookie-cutter answer. No one could help me after being transferred to 3 people. In, conclusion, the Midas shop should have found all issues the first time, let me know what it all was, and fixed everything. Not to mention I am really busy and all of the time spent going back was very inconvenient. I wish someone in Corporate would contact me and send me to a shop that would fix this free of charge and make this right. If not, I am definitely going to spread the word. read more

Tomorrow my car will have been there a month for an engine swap .I do not recommend this business to anyone. I have been told by Carlos that he pretty much had to hype his workers up to start the job which 100 percent to me sounds like no one even wants to do it. I was told it would be done either today or last Saturday after 2-3 other empty promises of it being done. Even got told it was priority last week to get me to go away which was a big lie. Communication is terrible and I'm pretty sure it's cause my car is sitting and you can't give an update on something you aren't doing but are acting like you are.I'm always being told people are diligently working on my car when I ask(corporate and the workers both used the same phrase.. must be manager handbook stuff) . Then I go by a couple days later and it's in the same position. I have to pass by the place everyday to get my lady to work. I see plenty of cars come and go. Mines is being put off for whatever reason. Cause it doesn't suit anyone there's interests. All I can do is hope my car works properly and I don't get strung into having to get more stuff done like I've been seeing other people have been dealing with with Midas . Go to a mom and pops shop . Support a small business who will care more. I've been cost unnecessary money for taking ubers cause the bus has only been able to have 10 people at a time due to Covid and my wife has to get to work. The reason for this is i keep getting bad time estimates. Last update I got was from corporate. And it didn't fall through. I have been keeping pictures , videos, and receipt of everything. Need to know something real. If other people can get their stuff done around the clock I'm being put off. I've talked to mechanics who can do the job in 2 days. The reason I don't really appreciate the run around is cause it's disrespect. You do that to people who don't know about cars to stall them and buy time for whatever personal reasons. My least favorite part of all this is the insult to my intelligence. If it was the other way around you wouldn't go for It and you know that. I will probably get a response to this that helps nothing so it can look like they tried but realistically no one cares. It's a business and people are willing to say whatever to keep it rolling. If it wasn't going to be done today as promised why is it impossible to keep me informed about my property or give an update. Cause no one cares. When I contacted corporate I stated I was not lookin for any compensation , just Clarity and was told I would have the car today. That is not the case. I do not appreciate being given the run around which has ruined every time I have been making transportation plans for my family because I believe I'm getting the car back on an empty promise. I need someone to contact me cause I am expecting something for the trouble at this point. read more

My oil change and vehicle inspection wasn't just bad, it was life-threatening. The mechanic failed to notice a missing brake caliper bolt that could have, and eventually would have, caused my brake to seize up, possible while at highway speeds. When when my tire alignment store noticed the problem two days later, I went back to Midas and their manager said little more than, "Oh well..." Never again! read more
