The day following the review I received a call from Joe, the manager who was very apologetic, related he knew exactly who I was, and explained the assistant manager had recently passed away and the young man I delt with was fairly new. I have to re-evaluate my review of 1 and change it to AT LEAST a 4. It says something that a business pays timely attention to reviews and customer feed-back. For this I commend them and additionally that the work they do is attentive to detail. i explained it was not my effort to have the young mans employment in jeopardy; but moreover for him to be mentored, especially in integrity. I will most likely patron them again as long as Joe is a part of this franchise. mick

After looking at options online and seeing all the positive reviews, I decided to give them a try. Since I only had a couple of workdays to get it done--and a packed schedule--I stopped in during my lunch break, and the experience felt almost magical. There was no wait at all, and I didn't even have to get out of my car. As soon as I arrived, they waved me into the garage. The crew quickly came over, confirmed what I needed, and got to work right away. Within about 15 minutes, my oil was changed, the air filter was replaced (it definitely needed it), and they checked my tire pressure and all the lights. Everyone was friendly, professional, and incredibly efficient--truly a top-notch team. Bonus: they had a coupon available on their app so I saved $15!

I have been a long time customer at this Midas and others... This hurts to say... But, *WARNING* do…read morenot take you vehicles to this Location or any of the Midas locations in the Des Moines, Iowa area. I have a rusted 2002 Dodge Dakota that has seen better days. But, It is my work truck and I am finally starting to fix it up. I brought the truck into get the torsion bars adjusted and a tire allignment. After pulling the truck in the bay, the Tech wants to show me under the truck. He points out everything wrong with the truck except the torsion bars. Proceeds to tell me that he cant adjust the ride height on the truck because the shocks are blown. As a mechanic myself, unless the shocks are coil over shocks or there are coils on the axle it has nothing to do with ride height. Then the story changed to the Torsion bars not moving... I asked him if he could test to see if the torsion bar would move, could he do the job. He gets 4 full turns in the wrong direction on each bar. Then proceeds to tell me that it won't do anything for the ride hieght because of the shocks again. This is only part of the story. But, skipping ahead I ended up contacting the Area Manager of Midas and had a chat with him. He proceeded to agree with me that the shocks have nothing to do with the ride hieght on that truck. That the reason the mechanics didn't want to do the work was because the parts where rusty, and I agree the parts are rusty. But, here is my issue. Why Lie, why tell me an audacious story about leaking parts and shocks and exhaust leaking. When all they had to say from the beginning is, Its rusty and we don't feel comfortable doing it. And, why if it is so rusty and the mechanic not feeling comfortable working on it did the Tech give 4 turns to each bar in the wrong direction if they where uncomfortable working on it in the first place... Long story short, I never thought the Techs and management would lie to a customer. I was wrong... Watch yourselves eveyone...Midas is Bad...

I am sure I am similar to most where...even it's just an oil change... I keep pretty guarded when taking my car into a shop. I think most auto mechanics have done some studying of improv theater because when I go in for an oil change they can follow-up shortly with a "yes, and...". Classic game. I was pleasantly surprised. Both on the customer service and price. The service manager was professional, courteous, and very communicative on what they saw with my vehicle. It was a check-up so I expected some findings but what they found they actually gave alternatives that were more cost effective. - I needed more coolant: they told me they could fill it up for a price but if I just went to a parts store I'd save $5+. - i had a very small hole in a tire: They recommended just going to the place I purchased the tire. They may have a free replacement option. - They also didn't do a full tire rotation because of the tire. So the they didn't charge me for it. After it was all done, it was under an hour. I will say it was a bit pricey for all they did NOT do, ha...but somewhat fair considering their time and pointing those things out. All-in-all it was a good experience. I would recommend them if you need just a quick overview of your vehicle. I don't live near it, but if I happen to be around and need work to be done, they're definitely in my considerations.
