Midas - Salinas, California

IF YOU USE THIS PLACE, UBER!!! Do not rely on their service car or their word.

Low rating for customer service only. Dropped my car for a 9am oil change and brake check. Told service car would be available in 30-minutes. No big deal. Service car is ready, and the guy who came in for car work after me gets their drop-off first in the opposite direction and much farther away. A little frustrating, considering I dropped my car off at 9am and got back home at 10am. I was late for an in-home service because of this, but that's a different story.

Get a call at 10:50, explaining any issues and findings. Told the car will take an hour to get ready. I hear nothing back, so at 12, I call and ask when the driver will pick me back up. I then get told everyone is out to lunch and will be back in 1-1.5 hours. The rep on the phone told me he'd leave a note for the manager regarding getting picked up.

At 1:35, I call back. The rep says the service car is out picking someone else up!?!? To which I state that I've been waiting for an hour and half for a pick up. I basically get crickets and that they should be able to pick me up in 20 minutes. Kudos to them as it only took 35 minutes.

Collectively, I spent nearly three hours waiting on the service car.

What a great way to spend my Saturday! This is enough for me to never come back. I will strongly dissuade anyone that cares about customer service from going to this place.

The team at Midas, lead by Robert, was a great choice.

I went in for an estimate and was treated with professionalism and courtesy. It was an easy choice to have them proceed.

Overnight parts and repairs the following day made the experience even easier.

I would not hesitate to return and to recommend others to stop by and see for themselves.

Use to be a good place to get oil changes. Pricing much better than dealerships. Recently had an oil change and service tech handed me back my keys and said nothing to me. No customary thank you. What made it worse, was after getting in my car the steering wheel was oily. So tech obviously didn't bother to wipe down steering wheel. Even worse was after driving awhile, I noticed a burning smell coming from the engine compartment. I popped the hood and saw fresh oil splattered about. So the tech was sloppy and didn't bother to clean it up. I called the shop back and the manager apologized and said to bring my car back so his tech could clean it up. I didn't have the time and cleaned it up myself, 30 minutes to clean up his mess. I was not happy!

Robert needs a tad bit help with his customer service. I had talked to him over the phone gave him my car info and confirmed a price. Once i got there he gave me another price. In the most rudest tone ever. He did mention it was a 3hr wait as well which is no problem but that attitude made me leave and false prices

Everyone was friendly and did everything I asked, no hassles. I was, however, charged $190 to change my windshield wipers, I’m not sure how I feel about that.

Staff very knowledgeable and helpful. My only issue is paying $85 for a simple test to check my battery and alternator when I agreed to pay $1000.00 to purchase and install both items.

I was very pleased with your service because you told me exactly what time my truck would be available and what needed to be done. I am very satisfied

Good customer service and pricing was fair. Mechanic “Alejandro” explained all of the work performed and I’m happy with results.
