I went to Midas at 1543 Del Monte Blvd, Seaside, CA 93955 on or around Friday July 8, 2022 to do oil change and break change . A day after the service For some reason I opened the hood and I found out the oil never change . it was dirty and the level of the oil was low despite the fact I only drove less than 20 miles. I went back to Denny the assistant manager in seaside, CA AND I WAS SO FRUSTRATED branch who checked the oil himself and he found the oil was so dirty and he apologized and changed the oil and also performed power steeling leak that cost me around $81. He asked me to come back after 100 miles to check the results of the power steeling leak. Before I left I noticed the change light on and it never was before I left the car to him and I showed it to Denny who asked me to leave the car and it less in an hour he called me and he told me we fixed the issue it was nothing . I drove 3 miles and I saw the light come back on . I think They simply discount the battery to reset the car and never fix the issue . On July 28,2022 I went again to complete the power steering diagnostic and issue of the engine light . After 4 hours Midas assistant manager Denny called me and told me in order to fix the engine light it will cost me around $500 and instead of providing me with the result of the power steering leak that I paid $81 for it to find the leak INSTEAD he show me a minor leak in the engine which is irrelevant to the original issue . I was so frustrated and he was and I felt he was embarrassed and he refunded me the $81. Those are serious issues and above that I wasted my time and I lost trust in Midas for good . I wonder how many victims like me was treated that way . read more

I've been here a couple of times before and the service can't be beat. I brought my Hummer in because of a belt squeak on start-up, and uneven wear on my front tires (which I assumed was just going to be an alignment issue). Unfortunately, it turned out to be worse than I thought. The bearings/hubs needed to be replaced, the AC belt was toast, and I had a slow oil leak. The mechanic took the time to actually show and explain the issues to me. No other mechanic has ever showed me what was wrong and actually explained the issue until I started coming to this Midas. After getting over the initial sticker shock for the repairs, I asked what I had to fix today and what could wait. After previously dealing with GoldStar GMC in Salinas for other repairs, I fully expected to be told EVERYTHING had to be fixed for close to $1400. To my surprise the mechanic and Vincent said the only thing that needed immediate attention was the AC belt (replaced in 20 minutes).They didn't try to pressure me into the major repairs, which I appreciated. When I have the $$$ for other repairs, I will definitely be coming back. Customer service is a big deal for me since GoldStar completely failed in this aspect the last 2 times I was there. Hands down, Midas is my place to go to now. Keep up the good work guys!! read more

Well for starters I'm a mother, not a car person at all and don't even know where to begin about cars. My past experiences with other auto services has been awful, people trying to take advantage, pressuring me to get work done that wasn't even A necessity.. let's be real because I only am going to get what's needed as needed. When I first called I talk to somebody on the phone that was awesome not sure of the name but it made me want to come in but very nervous because of my past experiences. Then I met a gentleman named Armando he was so awesome and helpful and in a sense caring. It almost felt like I was going to a family business. He walked me step-by-step of what was needed first oil change and a check up. Not only did he Guide me in the right direction he also told me what I would need later. I would definitely say that customer service was 100% great if not more. I would definitely say Midas in Seaside is the only place I will go. Where you won't get ripped off or pressured to do something that's not an emergency necessity. Definitely ask for Armando he was such a great employee. I'm telling you I wont trust anybody else with my car and money. I just would want everyone to know there's a mechanic shop that we could trust!! read more

Having to replace my brake pads and transmission fluid one at a time, I needed a quick and easy place to do it and sometimes Midas didn't have the best rep. Also working full time/ single mom, makes money and time tight. Since the beginning to end my experience with Midas was great. I didn't need to replace my brakes after all. Looked like whoever did them before did it backwards and bc of that I was hearing the infamous squealing sound. So, I was only charged $29.99 for a "brake inspection." A lot cheaper than my original quote. And since my car was there anyways and they didn't take advantage of the situation, I've decided to get my fluid flushed at a combined price lower than my original quote. Everyone who helped me were nice, friendly and personable. The driver who took me to work and picked me up was on time, funny, and talkative. The owner even called to check up on my car and to talk about my experience I had there. All of this combined, I felt the least I could do it Yelp a great review. Thank you guys so much for helping me out and doing a great job with my car! I really appreciate it being as easy going as it was. read more

I rarely write reviews, but this Midas impressed me. I discovered a nail in my tire late Saturday night and needed a repair to get to a Sunday morning golf tournament in Monterey, and then to drive 150 miles home afterwards. I went to Midas around 7am, hoping to be first in line for tire service when they open at 8. To my surprise, I saw a light in the office and Jim C greeted me kindly, even though he was busy preparing to open shop. Jim patiently listened to my predicament. However, Jim explained that he was already over-booked for the day as most repair shops were closed on Sunday. My alternatives were ugly: mount the temp spare or use Fix-a-Flat (both solutions limited to 50mph), or I can drive 30 minutes in the opposite direction to the Salinas Firestone shop and hope to get an appointment there. Fortunately for me, Jim and his tech Richard, were somehow able to squeeze me in to repair my tire and I got to my tournament on time. Thanks again Jim and I'm happy to rate your Midas 5 stars! read more

Outstanding Quality and Service!! I work with 50 companies per day and waste so much of my time with incompetent unprofessional people. The staff and technicians at Midas were totally professional and the work was just superb. I had to take my vehicle there to fix a problem a different repair shop created. This was my first trip to Midas. When it comes to auto repair, it just seems like it's so hard to know who to trust. The center Manager Robert Baeza was patient and very respectful. They have since made two more repairs or adjustments and it was the same outstanding work each time. I received a follow up call from their area office asking me if I was satisfied with the repairs and quoted the "specific" work done instead of a general question about satisfaction. Unbelievable! Nice touch! I am now a committed customer and will send ALL my clients there. My time is valuable and the staff at Midas in Seaside Ca treated me accordingly. Thank you so much! Greatly appreciated. Dennis. read more

I had a Midas coupon for an oil change and went there on a week-end to have my oil changed. I'm in my 70's and due to recent heart surgery, can no longer do my own oil changes. I keep my vehicle well serviced and was informed by the technician that I needed "other" services performed totaling over $1000. It then occurred to me that the discount coupon was a ploy to get your vehicle in their garage and tally up more repair work. I informed the technician that I'd have these additional repair jobs performed at a later date. As I drove home, the vehicle appeared a little more noisier than usual. At home, I opened up my engine hood and sitting on the side of the engine compartment was my oil cap! The technician failed to put it back on and some oil sprayed on the upper engine hood. I immediately called the manager up and gave him my 2 cents. Forgetting to screw the oil cap back on is grounds for dismissal, in my book. Luckily, I spotted it on time! read more

I have been coming here for 8 years. Called for a quote on my brakes after they told me that they needed to be replaced. The gentleman I spoke with had no clue what was going on and said he would call me back with the information. Never received a call. Called back and spoke with Robert. He quoted me a price of between $350 to $680. Depending on if rotors needed to be done. I figured great that's reasonable. So I booked an appointment. I come into my appointment, charged $49.95 for for a premium brake evaluation which I was never told about. Okay I get it. Left my vehicle there and got a phone call with a quote. Robert told me it was going to be $1100.00. I asked why. He started spewing a bunch of things like a used car salesman. Double of what the quote was. Get it in writing and yes I know it's a quote but double of what he quoted? I would think that a mechanic with experience would know his pricing. Moral of the story. Don't trust them. read more

I want to thank Vincent Berry and the entire staff for helping me, my wife and 8 month baby get home. Yesterday, as we started to head home the car died while running. After a third jump start within couple hours, the AAA representative told us to get a hotel room cause we were not heading anywhere with a dead alternator. This morning after calling few places, we went with MIDAS, which is the best thing we've done to get back to Sacramento. This morning, AAA could not take three people in the truck to the shop. James after leaving the car James took me to pick up my wife and baby to the hotel, and the to the chain where I got the alternator since it was bad. The place would not do the exchange part unless the had the part taken out. So an additional trip was required. I've become a custerm for love for the outstanding service going beyond and above in time on crisi. THANK YOU SO MUCH MIDAS!!!!!!!!!!! read more

While on vacation in Monterey we went to start the vehicle on Sunday and it wouldn't start. After calling 3A and determining the vehicle needed to be towed, it was towed to Midas located at 1543 Del Monte Boulevard in Seaside, California. The Service Writer, Vincent Berry, immediately had an electrical check of the vehicle performed and determined that the starter was bad and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was checked in at 9:06 and Technician Jose G. pulled it into the service bay and immediately began work to replace the starter. While sitting in the waiting area, we heard our vehicle start up, he drove the vehicle over to the waiting area and to our surprise the starter and battery terminals were replaced. This was all accomplished by 9:54. Absolutely top-notch service and the facility was clean and everyone was very nice. Many kudos to Vincent and Jose for their exemplary service!! read more

I purchased a used BMW 335I for my son that needed a lot of work. I had the BMW dealership inspect the car and after a day and a half they gave me an estimate of almost $6000. A friend recommended Midas in Seaside over the dealership. I was very skeptical, but open minded. After Midas inspected the car, their estimate was for only $3100 and they reassured me that some of the work mentioned was not necessary and that they don't charge labor if they are already working on that area. You won't believe how understanding, knowledgeable and kind Robert, Jim and the whole gang were. I mean I spent the whole day there with them asking questions and looking over their shoulders while they were working on it and no one even once made a negative remark or rolled their eyes and they always answered my questions with a smile. From now on I will take my Benz and Toyota to them as well. Thank you guys. read more

The responses from this shop has consistently been very positive and responsive. They take ownership of a project and look to address and resolve any issue with a clear and demonstrated goal of customer satisfaction. Kelvin and Robert have especially exemplified this clear goal to satisfy the customer, which due their actions, shows to be supported and a performance goal of the owner, Charly. Whomever you contact in the shop, it is demonstrated, but Kelvin and Robert standout as consistently meeting expectations. Their pursuit extends to being very competitive in what they charge for their services. Several times, I have done price checks and they have beat their competition in pricing, delivery and warranty. Due to their consistency, I have relied on their services for repairs and will continue to do so as they continually perform at this exemplary level of service. read more

I have been going to Midas for about a year and a half now. I love the people, experience, and the overall atmosphere. I feel like a part of their family every time I go there. Robero Baeza the store manager is very friendly, approachable, and really makes you feel at home. I really enjoy the courtesy shuttle experience. James is not only friendly, but professional and makes you feel appreciated being a customer at Midas. I used to go to Good year before. They have good mechanics but they do not break down and explain in detail the way the experts in midas do. The mechanics in midas are very patient and go over every detail. You don't feel rushed or feel overburdened. Overall, Midas is the best auto repair, and oil change shop. I made a lot of friends in Midas. I recommended all of my friends, family, and co workers to go to midas for all of their auto repair needs. read more

I called about 5pm asking if they could fix a nail in my tire. Michael answered and said come on over and ask for me, we will take care of you. I had to stop to get air in my tire and traffic delayed me, so I got to their shop about 5:30, 30 minutes before closing. He didn't hesitate to help me. Michael and Jim got right down to business, took care of everything and get me back on the road quickly. My evening would have been a major hassle without their help. Turns out Midas also helped my friend the day before with a bad alternator, late in the afternoon. You got him back on the road before 6pm, too. Thanks for being open when you are and helping us out with unexpected issues that literally had us stopped in our tracks at the end of the work day. You help people get right back to their lives when problems strike. Thank you so much! read more

I have never experienced the service level, the honesty, the desire to be accurate in their diagnosis, all, saving money for the customer..I am blown away...initially, I thought it was starter motor..and they could have got me for $711..starter and labor..was the quote for that repair..but they weren't 100% sure it was the starter..they had the car for over a week..(it was raining steady, so no golf anyway ) finally the simple solution was , my keyless remote battery had failed and therefore no communication from key to computer..brought in a spare key..bam..they nailed it..I would have spent the rest of my life before finding that fix..I am blown away..thanks Jim and Robert at Midas Seaside..you have my business as long as you'll have me..James Patterson read more

WELL, WELL !!! What a great experience ---- took my Lexus SC 450 for a brake check. From when I first walked through the door & was greeted by Mr. James (sorry I don't know his last name) at the desk. It was as if I was a long time loyal customer -- and yet this was my first time there. And then -- my technician Mr. Tony Sanchez, not only treated my car as if it was his own but, explained EVERYTHING he found to me. He also took the time to show me the old parts - this helped me decide on what I need to do. WOW!! I finally came to a place that made it clear where my money is going. As I drove off I had a good feeling about the quality of the work & safety of my car. Thank you Mr. Sanchez & Mr. James. Best Regards, Al read more

After getting 2 front flat tires (!!) on PCH in Big Sur both Vincent Berry and Kelvin Johnson were SUCH big helps! They were so patient in helping me figure out the tires needed and even recommended going to a different dealer when they didn't have those in stock. It turned out the other shop was not open on a Sunday so they were kind enough to expedite the order of my correct tires in. It was such a blessing to work with such amazing individuals especially as we were on a road trip up from LA and had to be back to catch flights for the Thanksgiving holiday week. I'd highly recommend getting your car serviced here & appreciate the interaction with both Vincent and Kelvin. read more
