Midas

My engine was not repairable so my only option was to buy a new engine for around 3k, which definitely wasn't worth it for my Chevy Cobalt 06. So I asked simple questions like where to take my car to get rid of it (since I don't know anything about cars), and they couldn't answer any of my questions.. I was just told that I needed to get my car out of their lot before the weekend. I finally found a towing service on my own who paid to have it melted down but it would have been great to be pointed in the right direction instead of blown off. If I have any car issues in the future I'll probably try somewhere else.

Really bad experience.They broke a coupler for the cooling system on the car whilst doing a coolant flush. They said they would order a replacement (at our own cost), which 2 months later we still haven't heard back.They tried to patch up the system which resulted in the car breaking down twice.Had the invoice examined by a mechanic friend, who pointed out that we were massively over charged on components & labor. Cheapest components used and charged over double the shop value, charged full labor for 3 related systems that were already in pieces because of the other work being done.This seems like a practice that unless you know about whats involved in vehicle mechanics you would never challenge, but is pretty shady.Honestly just go somewhere else. Not trust worthy or reliable.This was at the 2737 Pembina location

LIARS, LIARS, LIARS!Don't trust these guys!Went in for a regular oil change, was told that the spring on my front struts are broken on both sides. The manager even showed me a broken piece of the spring he said that came from my vehicle. I went to a different auto mechanic and have the front struts replaced. After the job was done, I asked to see the old struts and was told the struts are just fine. The spring was 100% intact and the struts didn't need to be replaced. Hundreds of dollars wasted!BTW, the brakes he recommended that I replace still have about 75% life on it.------------------------------------------I had my rear rotor and pad replaced at this Midas in 2012. Today, during a routine oil change, they told me that I needed to get new rotor and pads for both the front and back. I had only put 40,000 miles on my car since they installed the new rotors and pads for the rear, and they tell you they offer lifetime warranty.

If I could give a 0 star I would. I booked an appointment for safety inspection on my vehicle and showed up right on time and was told I can come back in couple of hours to pick it up. When I came back after about 2 hrs, I found they haven’t even started inspection and I wasn’t even notified about the delay. All I got in response is that they will start it at 3pm and that wasn’t even a guaranteed thing. Recommend not going over there to waste your time. Look for another location. Never had this issue on any other Midas location

Please turn around and go find other places for service. I replaced my braking pads and rotors at Midas on south Pembina, they charged me 860 bucks for the front ones[i drive a cheap car]! Yes, i agreed on the quote and let them do the work since i was not sure the reasonable cost for replacing this at my first time. After i asked around, they charged the most among all the other placed. Before i left there, the front desk promised i could charge a loose battery there for free, when i brought it there, they changed the mind, i was told by the manager: nothing is free man

Where does one begin to share what phenomenal service you get with going here for any kind of maintenance or changes.Had a check engine light come on, got quotes and here was the best I got! Phoned the manager James, and he was great! Like, just great! He was able to squeeze me in the day I phoned. Even knocked off a few bucks for having to wait for a part! The service was fast, friendly and just overall awesome! Highly recommend for any vehicle needs!-roger

I went to this place to screw a loose nut and they charge me $45 for it. To screw this nut it won't take 1 min. When I asked them why $45 they mentioned they perform some tests (which I didn't ask to do or they didn't ask me to get my permission). This is the worst nightmare just paid and left. But I always keep the bill as my souvenir. Be careful you may also experience something similar to me next time when you go to this place.

Thank you to Midas on Pembina south for such amazing service and getting my car taken care of for the upcoming season.I’ve gone to other maintenance shops in the city and feel like I had to do a lot of things myself instead.Glad my friend Tyler let me know he worked here!Was in and out within the hour and no curveballs or unreasonable pricing.Will definitely be coming here for the next season!

If you don’t know much about cars MUST STAY AWAY. I am pretty sure the pay is commission based at this location.I went for winter tire change, they offered wheel alignment so I took the offer. I went to nearby starbucks while they work on my car, they called me THREE times just to get me to pay them $1,500+ for some stuff my regular dealership never mentioned. They put on “I care about my customer’s safety” face and try to talk you into “Do you know what this is? This is going to destroy your car. This will save you thousands of dollars in long run”. I didn’t fall for it and they tried to charge me more by changing the numbers on my invoice. They will not show you the price for the services you received until you pay for it.If you already made a mistake of going to this place already MAKE SURE YOU CHECK THE PRICES OF THE SERVICES before you pay for it. They will insist you have to pay first to see it but eventually They will show it to you on their computer screen. The lady - I think she said her name is Alex - tried charging me $30 more than what she told me when she offered me wheel alignment. I brought it up to her attention and the expression she had on her face while she was fixing the price was just... I’ve never seen anyone making such angry face over $30. Just stay away from this place.This place was so much better before. Maybe the owner changed. MUST STAY AWAY PEOPLE!

When I booked an appointment for muffler I told them the issue. When I arrived they looked at it and said they couldn’t do it because their muffler guy was not there. So....why inspect and and book me in then?Wasted a whole day with this clowns. Manger there is a real jerk as well. Zero professionalismGo elsewhere!
