Beware! I took my car here for an oil change. The next day my car was squealing. I drop it off to Midas to see what’s wrong. John Gonzalez calms me to tell me my oil gasket and cover need to be replaced and quotes me around $2100 to complete the repair; $1000 for parts and $1000 for labor. I ask for the part names and part numbers to see if I could find them cheaper online so John Gonzalez gives me the names and part numbers so I can order them online. I found the parts MUCH cheaper and ordered them. When the parts come in, we take them to Midas where John Gonzalez tells me the part is missing a valve/pipe and asks us to get them from an auto parts store. He prints up the parts from his computer to show us the missing part. The parts from his computer were only $600 and he quoted me almost $1000 for the same parts!! We went to two parts stores to find the missing valve/pipe but were unable to get them so we tell John Gonzalez to order the valve/pipe and proceed w the repair. After 15 minute, John Gonzalez calls back to say the two parts we ordered using the part numbers he gave us, weren’t the correct parts after all. So I tell him I’m coming to pick up the car and the wrong parts! I drive the car from Midas to another mechanic who then quotes me a little over $900 for the repair; about $500 for the part and over $400 in labor. Midas not only WAY over charged me for parts but also nearly doubled the labor time! Horrible!
Dont ever work for the midas in Strongsville ohio the owner boris gecovich,, and his son ed gecovich will ripp you off. Not only that,, they like to sale customers parts that they dont need or have you pay for work that they never do
I went to Midas in racine, wisconsin and told them I just replaced my A/C compressor, receiver/drier, and expansion valve and needed to have my A/C unit flushed and evacuated, and my transmission flushed and so they gave me a qoute which i thought was a good deal with whatever price it was I forgot but I brought my car after setting the appointment at 9:30am and they said it should be done by noon. At exactly 5:38pm which is 8 hours later they call me and say my car was done but they could not complete the transmission flush because they needed a certain tool, I said ok not a problem and picked up my car. As I am paying I ask where would I be able to get my transmission flushed and he not sure his name recommended a Ford dealership and told me after I was done filling my A/C unit that they would give me a free A/C inspection which I thought was cool because they made a mistake about flushing my transmission.(By the way before I replaced those three A/C parts I did have my unit professionally emptied which was full of A/C which means I had no leaks.)I then took my car home and began to fill my A/C unit with freon and as im reading the gauge i see the unit is not holding any freon and my brand new compressor is not even clicking over, also as I have my hood up I notice Im missing my two engine covers. So I then call and asked to speak with the manager John and told him I now have a leak which I did not have before and Im missing my engine covers and he gave me all kinds of reasons why I could have a leak and that they did not cause that but if I wanted to stop back by they could take a look at it. Before I leave I receive a call from another guy at Midas telling me I was just cleaning and I just saw some engine covers that might be yours now this is like three days later that they finally notice and after my phone call that my engine covers are still in there shop.So I bring my car back again and I give them my keys, they drive my car inside the garage and put my engine covers back on without the clips to hold it on and pull my car back out. I asked them well I thought you were going to inspect my A/C unit which they said they would do it for free anyways but the manager reponded that they had inspected it before they released the car and if I wanted a further inspection that I would have to pay. At that point I was so upset I just asked for their corperate number and went home.I then began to call anyone and everyone I could to get this resolved. A short time later I received a phone call from a lady who was nice but transfered me back to the manager at the place I just came from, I refused to talk with him because of what I just went through and continued to call other phone numbers on their website.A short time later I received another call from the field manager who told me that they didnt do nothing but what was asked to my car and I cant prove it. He continued to tell me, how does he know my car was working fine before I brought it to them and asked where it was leaking from. I said I did not know but it is not holding any freon or compression anymore and it was fine before. I was on the phone with this guy for about 20 minutes and him just telling me over and over that I could not prove my car was fine before I brought it in or that midas did anything. I then got tired of talking with guy insulting me and told him we are not getting anywhere and I will continue to call others.I NEVER once received a apology and I always thought Midas was a safe honest company to come to but after this experience I am not sure about that anymore.
