I have used Midas for years because I got a lifetime warrenty on brakes, but I noticed a distinct change for the good when the new manager/ownership took over. My average bills are now half what the previous owner charged.They always accomodate me even when I drop in, if I am willing to wait. Their work is high quality and their prices are reasonable. If for some reason I have a problem after they have done repairs, they work with me until it is right and never charge me extra. I called this shop when the Midas in Maui charged me exorbitant prices and they told me which charges were reasonable and which ones were gouging and what work absolutely needed to be done. They gave me hints to save money at the Maui shop like buying the part I needed and letting them do the work--the price changed drastically. I also called them from Seattle when the Midas there was suggesting many repairs. He told me what had to be done and what I could wait on and reasonable prices for the service they were providing. This gave me a negotiating tool and the Seattle Midas adjusted my bill a great deal.
Pros: Honest, prompt service, stand behind their work
Cons: Charges for rags if I don't complain.
