I went to Midas for oil and filter change for my 2004 Lexus RX330. It appears that they did not change the oil filter at all. My car was only driven 1800 miles after the last oil/filter change so the oil was still quite clean but it's been 3 months so I took it to Midas for oil/filter change. They also recommended changing my engine air filter and cabin filter so I let them. They did not secure all the screws for the air filter housing. The "New air filter" appears dirty due to mechanic's dirty hands. I feel being cheated. Not going back there anymore.

Presented coupon for $19.99 oil change. During oil change the tech came out and said that I needed new brake pads and capilers, and I said I didn't want the service at this time. Then manager/owner came out and asked why I didn't want the brake job. I told him I didn't want the service at this time. He got abusive and belittling and said, 'what, you can't afford it?' Replied that I wouldn't get them done there anyway because of the way I was being treated. He then threatened to call the police and said that I wouldn't even be able to drive out of the parking lot and that the police would arrest me for driving an unsafe vehicle and that I would get a letter from the state for driving it. I left and went to my mechanic who inspected the brakes and said they were 60% worn and that I could get 10, 000 to 20, 000 miles out of them before replacing.

On the 16 Sept my dad found himself in a position where he was going to be hi jacked. He eventually braked the car with guys in it close to midas in landsdown road. Security officials helped him... Being in shock my dad ran toward midas... and wanted to get water to drink... ( heart Patient)... To his surprise the Staff of Midas, closed the doors in his face and didnt want to help him... not even pull him into the shop for safety! My advice to you all is dont go purchase anything at the store, cause when *** hits the fan, they will close the door in your face! He couldve been dead today...

Midas off of Kingshighway, Saint Louis, is in one word, unacceptable. They have no idea what they are doing and almost cost me 100s of dollars for replacement parts that I didn't need. Nevertheless, after shaking a mechanics hand and taking off in my car I broke down later that night. Needless to say my dad fixed my car, with a simple wire replacement (which they fried when changing my oil filter.)

I had brought my car in only for an oil change, and they tried charging me for a new starter, a new battery, and a new alternator. Not to limit myself as a female, but I'm pretty sure they were just taking advantage of me.

WARNING! If you ever go to the Midas on Highway 7 in Markham:

PROFILE:
- JOHN LOUIE
- He used to work at the Midas at Steeles/Midland and has transferred to the location on highway 7

AVOID THIS WORKER! He has a history of scamming customers with ridiculous pricing quotes and pockets the money whenever it is paid in cash. I know a handful of individuals who have personally been screwed over, where he charged them jobs and parts that were never done or fixed. He sometimes will even do a follow-up call to convince you to come in again for a full car check up, where he'll charge you again in the thousands. Because he works somewhere up in the managerial position, it's easy for him to pull off these scams.

DO NOT BE A VICTIM AND GET SCREWED BY THIS DOUCHE!
Midas is a great company, but there are workers like him who ruin the name of the automotive industry.
