Came in on a Saturday close to closing time with a sound coming from the driver right side of the car that sounded like my wallet letting me know to buckle up for a ride. In all seriousness, it essentially sounded like my front brake caliper was holding on by a thread tapping, grinding, and smacking against everything. The service team was able to get eyes on and pull the car in the shop and on the lift, and let me know a rock from the loose gravel of Minnesota in winter was to blame. In and out in 10 minutes. No damage to the wallet. Superb customer service by the gentlemen at the desk and the service tech. Highly recommend! read more

Midas - A rock that was removed at no cost from my brake that sounded like it would cost a paycheck - Auto Repair Near Me - St. Louis Park, Minnesota

Had a nail in my tire, guys at the shop were super friendly, kind, and honest! Thank you!!

Needed a wheel alignment after getting new tires and brakes. Midas was able to get me in same day and got the job done quickly. They also did a general inspection and said everything checked out. Employees were very friendly and didn't try to sell me on any additional work. The car drives so much better now. Great experience overall. read more

I came in to check tire pressure an hour before closing and was told to come back next week. for something as simple as tire pressure Discount Tire or Tires Plus always just checks on the spot. it makes no sense to wait to the next week to check tire pressure. I won't be returning. read more

Midas - Auto Repair Near Me - St. Louis Park, Minnesota

Battery had a bit of an issue, clamp wasnt fastened as tight as it needed to be, so brought it over, the guys were cracking jokes as soon as I came in, very welcoming atmosphere. They fastened the clamp, made sure the alternator/battery was good to go, then didn't charge me at all saying everything looked good. Was a great overall experience and will be back! read more

Easy to make an appointment online, but the older gentleman at the front counter was really rude and condescending to a person who walked in who didn't speak English as their first language. It was really uncomfortable to witness. In addition, I brought my car in for an oil change and was told while there that I needed four new tires. I'm sure I did, but I wasn't offered a selection, just told which ones they'd put on and how much they would cost. I would have liked more information, but I agreed, and their work seems good. (Though equivalent tires and installation would have been $300 less at Costco; note to self for next time.) read more

Had a very good experience, straightforward, knowledgeable staff. Timely fix , reasonable cost. Would easily recommend.

I have been going to this location with my cars for 20 years. The staff is helpful, down to earth, no corporate talks and they are very honest. The work they do is very reliable. I trust them without reservation. read more

Overdue for a follow-up review. This location's already exemplary customer service somehow has reached new bounds! I typically opt to sit in the lobby and wait while my vehicle is being worked on. For most shops, you have little interaction with anyone else there--customers or staff. Here, it is the exact opposite. The staff is not just friendly, but a riot! You'll often find Royce and Taylor behind the counter, using that counter space like a stage. What that stage holds varies by the minute, but you can bet your tuchus these two will make you laugh, educate you on BBQ, trade BBQ techniques with you, provide car advice, talk about life... You don't feel like you're waiting in a car lobby, but more so out at the bar with your pals. Because Royce and Taylor are just that good at creating this friendly and fun environment, the patrons of this Midas location take up in the fun! People are engaged with each other and having a good time, all while our vehicles are being worked on. This is on top of all the great work their Auto Techs do! This place has great prices, they find you discounts, the work is done quick and well, and the customer service is the best. Come by and see for yourself, just book an appointment ahead of time! read more

Called Midas early in a Saturday morning regarding a weird metal clinching sound in my tire. I was absolutely panicked and the staff Luke (or Lucas) was outstanding in handling my vehicle. I was able to drop it off and they found the issue and didn't charge me for its removal. Since my car was there i figured I was overdue for an oil change and without hesitation, they were able to fit that into their day as well. Granted I was able to leave my car for 45min-1 hour which was fine with me because they were working me into their already set schedule. I always appreciate a business that is chain owned with hometown values. The care and attention I needed was given and for that, they won a customer over. read more

Came in for some issues (my steering wheel was shaking and car was veering to the right) could've been a number of things but was hopeful that it was just a bad tire or car need an alignment. Walked in an explained what my car was doing and met with a condescending attitude right off the bat. "That's definitely not going to be alignment it's going to be a whole other problem." I left and a couple hours later they call me back to let me know what they found. Right away, "well it's the alignment but you'll also need to get 4 brand new tires that's going to cost a little over $1000." I said I didn't have the money to do that today and how about just replacing 2 tires because it seems like it's my front passenger side tire that's causing the issue. "We can do two tires but it's still not going to fix the issue." I declined and went to pick up my car because I know someone who can help me for free. Picked up my car and asked for a printed out diagnostic report. They declined and said they sent me a link by text message of the courtesy inspection. The inspection didn't mention anything about an alignment and was a report of why all my tires are bad. Brought my car to the family friend. He took a look at all the tires and said all look good besides the front passenger side. He decided to move my front tires to the back and back tires to the front to see if that would fix the problem of the car veering off to the right. And right away when testing out the drive, the car wasn't pulling to the right anymore! Took that tire off that we knew was the problem and there was a bulge in it. Nowhere in the diagnostic did it say anything about this tire being bulged out. This tire was the culprit. Found a used tire that is basically brand new. Popped it on to the car and wow, the problem isn't there anymore! Funny how that works. Long story short, they really were trying to take advantage and scam me into paying $1000 for 4 new tires because that was the only way it would fix my problem. I'm very disappointed and this is why I don't trust repair shops. I brought it in because I wanted a professional opinion. They shot me down when I suggested that it was probably a simple fix and didn't even diagnose that it was 1 bad tire that was causing the issue. This is just one of those stereotypical cases where you take your car into a shop for something minor and they tell you that you absolutely need to fix 5 others things on it. read more

I went here for an oil change and had such a good experience! being a woman and doing car chores is intimidating and the men here educated me about an issue with my car but did not make me feel dumb. They actually told me that I should take it to my dealership to get something fixed because it was a better deal than what they could do for me because of warranty. So nice. I will be back for many more oil changes in the future! read more

Popped in for an issue with my windshield wipers, and they had me in and out in no time! Good customer service, and no "creepy auto shop vibes" yummy drinks while you wait, and great pricing! My coworkers also frequent this location, no bad things to say, all great experiences. Thanks guys! read more

This Midas is truly one of a kind. Their service, communication and attention to your needs is unparalleled. I recently had an issue with my car last week where I needed help not knowing what could bring wrong I went to a dealership. They wanted $150 just to tell me what was wrong. Sooooooo I called Midas. Shawn the manager answered and I told him what I was experiencing and he immediately went online started talking me through the problem and then said to come in and let's take a look. Within minutes service associate, Wyatt tested my car at no cost and gave me a clear answer and broke down the cost clearly and with noooooo added fees. They took me into the service area to show me what was going on and how to prevent this issue. I was never feeling pressured or uncertain if I was getting the best car care. They were so kind and patient with a noncar person like me but who wanted to understand. The next day.... Shawn called me to check in that my car was running okay and it was. That type of care and attention was truly so incredible to me that I will go there anytime and every time I can or suggest people to go. read more

My car needed to be repaired due to a bad brake job. This location was more than accommodating. They fixed my car, honored the competitors price, got me in a loaner and my life was smooth sailing. I am so happy with the service I got. Taylor is the BEST!!! read more

Midas - The face of a Happy Customer. TerryAnn Nash, MAPL Nashinspired LLC - Auto Repair Near Me - St. Louis Park, Minnesota

They are an honest bunch. When my alternator busted, my dad was insisting I get the engine belt changed at the same time. I asked the Midas guys to do it but they told me the engine belt looked good and it would be a waste of money for me to change it. They could have easily just accepted the work and the money but I'm glad they gave me honest advice. It's pretty easy to get an appointment. Check out coupons online. Their waiting area has wifi, water, and tv but usually I take a stroll to Trader Joe's or Fresh Thyme down the road. read more

I've been to this Midas location for a few years and it's my go to for good reason. Their staff and mechanics are very friendly, helpful, and always go the extra mile. The service is quick and thorough. When I had a flat tire, I called when they opened and they fit me in right away. While the work was being done they gave updates which was nice and made the headache of a flat tire much less painful. This is a great place! read more

I came here to get a ride-share inspection completed on my car. I was able to make a same-day appointment, and they were flexible when traffic had me running late. The staff was polite and cheerful. I was quoted that the inspection would take a half hour, and they completed it in about 15 minutes. I appreciated the complementary sodas and coffee in the waiting area. My only suggestion would be that when I pulled into the lot, it was difficult to discern where I should be driving/parking my car and whether the garage doors would be opened for me. It was snowing pretty heavily so I could have just missed signage, but I do appreciate when car places will open the garage doors as you pull up, especially in inclement weather. read more

How does a $ 49.99 oil change turn into eighty dollars? advertised price of 59.99 have coupon code for $10. off resist add ons such as cabin air filter$39. and air filter $30. Get bill, has $15. for LABOR and $4.00 shop supplies so after tax it is ove $ 80. What a bait and switch. Never again any midas ever I have paid for oil changes for 40 years, never was labor or shop supplies not included. I will be checking with attorney generals for class action suits. This is crooked and should be illegal. i even asked what the total price would be, $49.99 plus tax. So imagine my surprise at eighty dollars read more

I needed help removing some stuck bolts on my license plate and they helped me out. Friendly and efficient. Will be back!

Royce and his team are awesome to work with! They have always been very accommodating with my schedule and helping me with my car! I recently bought a new vehicle and they looked it over to make sure I was making a good purchase! I would trust them with any vehicle! They are very up front and honest! I couldn't recommend them enough!! read more

Royce and Taylor were a pleasure to work with. From scheduling my appointment to the promptness of their communication as the repairs progressed. They were both extremely affable, knowledgeable and were extremely helpful both to me and the other guests that came in during my visit. They had excellent rapport with everyone in the shop. Needless to say I will be returning for all my automotive needs because of them, plus the pricing for everything was incredibly affordable. read more

Very helpful- as someone who doesn't know a lot about cars, they taught me about what was wrong with my car and provided me with all the information I needed. Also quoted what else I would need at a later date and it was much cheaper than the other place. Robert was very helpful- definitely recommend! read more

Not really sure where to begin. I went in for a standard Lyft inspection and then they told me that they'd have to fail me unless I got new brake pads and a new brake caliper. (Around 725$ of work). I want to trust them but I just got some car work done at another shop a couple of weeks ago. That particular shop couldn't do Lyft inspections but they did a full courtesy check that said my brakes were "OK" So all and all I feel very uncertain. I want to trust that Midas was being honest but I can't help but feel a little unconfident. My brakes felt fine prior and feel basically the same now. So not sure if I just threw over 700$ down the drain. read more

I received great service at this Midas! I had an emergency gas smell, and I received fast and honest service from this Midas.

I needed to fix my tire pressure and the staff at Midas was very kind and offered me a pretty efficient service at no cost. Thanks a lot for your service. I will come back read more

More than 6 months ago, in Feb 2011., when temp was -20, and I was in FL, my house sitter had use of my car, an older Nissan. It died one night and he had it towed to the Midas garage as it was a AAA place. Over the next couple of days I negotiated over the phone from FL with them and had repairs made. I was nervous and assumed my absence from the city would be taken advantage of. However, they treated me really really well and within days the car was on the road again. Several months later, I had to have an alternator that they had installed replaced. (Sometimes, parts are just crap and I got one). I drove in to their place at 2p and by 3:30p I was on the road again! Fantastic. No appointment had been arranged or anything. While there, a young technician also spotted the cause of some electrical problems that my fancy-pancy-pricey Nissan dealer (Luther in Inver-Grove) could not figure out and it had been problematic for a month. It was such an obvious problem ... like an 18-20 year old with a brain could figure it out. They fixed that too! and an a month of headaches disappeared at the same time. Thanks, guys!

Midas in Saint Louis Park is the hands down the best when it comes to car service, they have warm and friendly staff. I have been a customer for a long time and will keep coming. I always recommend this location to my friend and family. It's cheaper than a dealership price, convenient location and great great service. Always get the job done. read more

Employee(s) misused my vehicle while it was in their care. My high performance vehicle electronically clocked and exceedingly fast and unnecessary acceleration during the time it was at the shop (0-60 in 4.4 seconds). Management acknowledged abuse but refused to offer compensation. read more

I actually took my car here because of all the great reviews, but it was a bad experience. First, I asked for an oil change, but they tried to sell me brake pads by telling me my brake pads were shot. When I didn't want to do anything but the oil change, they finished it, but when I drove away, my alarm light came on, there were concerning noises, and oil was leaking from my car. They admitted they had made an error. So, they not only didn't do a good job, but they broke something that was fine before. When I got a second opinion from a reputable about the brake pads, I was told/shown they were fine. read more

Repeatedly have used this shop and have always gotten right in and treated professionally and all repairs and estimates are very clear. They have shown me the issues at my car and have offered alternative options which has been very helpful when deciding what option is best for the maintenance of my car. The shop is very clean and I find they have integrity and pride in their location and the mechanics are friendly - professional and caring. They are more than willing to accommodate what you are hoping to accomplish with your car's maintenance. My husband and I have gone there for basic maintenance and repairs for over 11 years. We are happy to have them in our neighborhood. Thanks to Zach and Sean for helping me with a new battery and maintenance of the muffler on our Toyota! I could not anticipate a better experience, price and outcome. Thank you very much! read more

If you're a female considering whether or not to bring your car to a Midas location in the Twin Cities, this review is for you. I'm a female in my twenties, and I took my car to the Midas Excelsior location (4200 Excelsior BLVD) for an oil change. They did a courtesy check and said that my wheel bearing needed to be replaced. I ended up getting the bearing fixed at the location. When I took my car to another mechanic, he said that the bearing was sealed and didn't need to be packed. Midas charged me $40 to have the bearing packed, which they shouldn't have done, period. Midas lauds itself for its trust, but I find it hard to trust a company whose employee charged me for a sealed bearing and then also included a charge for it to be repacked. I don't know much about cars, so if I hadn't talked to a different mechanic, then I wouldn't have known what this Midas location had done. This makes me wonder how frequently this happens to unsuspecting patrons. I was able to get it refunded, but I've completely lost trust in Midas. I will never take my car to one of these locations ever again. read more

I've had oil changes done here the past few years. So when I went in for a brake check. They said that it had a frozen caliper. I took their estimate and went on my way. I called a friend who knows more about cars and after he looked at it. He said that all it needed was new rotors and pads. Trusting the people working on your car is needed. They've lost my trust. read more

I have a fairly used car around 48K miles. I usually go to my dealership to get all services done but I figured I would try out Midas since I've gone to one in a different location before and liked it. This Midas is also close to where I live so I didn't have to drive all the way out to my dealership. But boy was that a mistake! I went in thinking I would just get a quick and simple oil change and the guy comes back telling me I need all sorts of things. First my oil change needed to be synthetic so instead of paying 19.99 as advertised on their windows, I ended up having to pay 49.99. Then he comes back and tells me my air filters needed to be changed because it was dirty and that was going to cost me 39.99. This wasn't that big of an issue because if it needed to be done, then so be it. But you can imagine my frustration of thinking I would only be spending $20 for an oil change but in reality, I spent $80 (I had a $10 off coupon). BUT THEN the guys comes back again and tells me all 4 of my struts are leaking and that i needed to get those replaced immediately. The repair was going to cost me $1,500!! By this point, I'm calling bullshit on EVERYTHING this guy is saying. I had just gotten my car checked at my dealership when it was 40,000 miles. There was no way something so extreme could have happened in 8,000 miles. So I called my dealership to make an appointment and have them check it out. Turns out, my struts are COMPLETELY FINE and I definitely did not need it to be replaced ANY TIME soon. I can't even believe I trusted these people to change my oil. They are either really bad mechanics who don't know what they are doing or more obviously, JUST COMPLETE CROOKS! They are obviously trying to take advantage of the fact that I am a woman and don't know much about cars. Well, I may not know much about cars but I do know when I am being SCAMMED! NEVER EVER COMING BACK AND I SUGGEST YOU DON'T EITHER!! read more

Best car service I have ever received! The mechanics are amazing - they make sure they explain everything clearly and understand your specific situation. Extremely honest and reliable guys. Shout out to Wyatt for helping me twice in a week and being extremely patient with me!! Definitely going to recommend this Midas to all of my family/friends! read more

Midas SLP is great! Employees are extremely friendly and kind, and customer service is great. They always explain everything before they do any service and provide a recommendation based on facts/what's needed for the vehicle. They also love dogs and always have a nice treat for my pup! read more

Great service--very welcoming and helpful--and timely. I went on a Saturday, and expected a long wait; but, even with a few person line, they got me in and out within a half hour. Also, one service I needed done cost me $20 at another Midas, and these guys did it for free. I recommend this particular shop for oil changes, tires, and any other miscellaneous repairs or services you may need. read more

Had a stripped bolt that refused to come out. Brought the vehicle here and they had it out and replaced within minutes. Incredibly friendly service too. Bring your car here!! read more

I have worked with Robert and Sean, and they are always very upfront and honest about what's going on with my vehicle and what my options are. Although they know their stuff, they relay the information as if I were a peer, which I appreciate as a (youngish) female. They are very accommodating about fitting you in the schedule wherever they can, which is also a big plus. I would recommend them. read more
