This guy, Dion, has restored my faith in mechanics and the idea of trusting someone else with my vehicle. He was fast, thorough, and found problems with my vehicle that my last mechanic didnt warn me about.More impressively, he did that as a one-man show - doing the admin in the office, and fixing 3+ cars in the shop himself. That means he isnt just good at what he does... it means quality is a habit for him.I will absolutely be using this place again.
Took two hours to get oil change. Was told an hour and a half. Only one mechanic there working on four cars. Manager no where to be found. Should have more mechanics.
I called with an emergency & Dion not only had the part i needed (every other place we called had to order it) but was knowledgeable, pleasant & quickly had me on my way again completely satisfied! Thank u Midas & Dion 💯
This was an awesome experience. Dion was so helpful and informative. Just did an overall great job! I recommend this shop.
Only one man in the shop but he handled everything really well and even gave me some extra advice on my vehicle!
Great service and management
Best place to take your car.
99% in everything you could find it in Walmart Store
Avoid this place. They over charge and treat you disrespectfully.
Marco is by far the best manger i have come across and was able to work with the budget that I had. He was able to get the job done in a timely manner and the crew is top notch. I will always bring my cars to his shop, I Know they will take care of me......You can`t go wrong with lake forest Midas.
Worst break service I have ever received, I knew i was in trouble when the manager took one of the break shoes to the grinder in order to make it fit, after 5.5 hrs. when i left you could here the breaks grinding when i called to report it to the manager he told me to drive 3 to 5 hundred miles to break them in.when i insisted that some thing was wrong he agreed to an appt after another 3 hrs watching him struggle with my rear breaks he released the jeep to me, the following day after driving 50 miles round trip to the VA Hosp it was clear that there was a serious problem so i took my jeep to another Midas shop to have my breaks inspected, the result was that the rear break shoes were installed so incorrectly that the drums and shoes were completely destroyed and had to be replaced and although midas warrantied the shoes I had to pay for the new drums @ $165.00 each. When I reported the outcome to the manager and requested a refund simply said no I would have to talk to the owner, after three days of trying to contact the owner I contacted corporate, although corporate did agree to reimburse me for some of the work performed including turning the drums that were ultimately destroyed by the incompetence of this shop they would not reimburse for the cost of the drums a total of $330.00 plus tax. I suppose I should be great full that the breaks didnt come apart on the freeway while my family was in the car! P.S. I have the invoices to back up my story
Our tech was Manny. He was a really nice guy and helped us out. Super professional and very reasonable prices.
On May 21st, I went to Midas to get my oil changed, I asked for the 24 point exception. I was told that i need breaks, and was advise that it was going be about 180.00 and additional 80 to machine my roters I am not sure of the spelling. I ask the man who was working on my car how bad the were the break pads, he told me that they need to be change ASAP. because they were very low. I decided to take my car else where on Monday to have the breaks repair. Come to find out I didnt need breaks on my car and my break would last me for about another 6000 miles. it was very upsetting to find out that I was lied to and that the guy was trying to scam me out about $260 of work that my car didnt need. I will never take my car there again. and ladies if you decide to take your car to this Midas in Lake Forest, please be care they will try to scam you cause they think you dont know anything about cars, Very disappointing. Now I am starting to wonder if he changed the oil on my car at all, cause he didnt update the millage on on the sticker just put the date when i took the care in not the date that I need to return the care for another oil change, and then when i ask him about the millage and I gave him the number that he acted like i didnt know what i was talking about
Staff was super awesome they did a tire patch for our Ford explorer for a reasonable price. They were fast no more than 20 to 25 minutes tire off repaired and back on. Definitely coming back to get more stuff done would, recommend to people that need stuff done. They do offer a wheel alignment package for 2 years hell yeah. Plus the staff recommended a set of Cooper tires I might like because these hankooks I have are soft and are prone to damage. Thank you Midas
Marco is a gem! You can definitely tell he cares about his clients. Dealer wanted to charge me an arm and a leg. Saved so much money bringing my car here for a service. Will definitely come back.
Thanks Manny for fast service and great work 👍
Outstanding shop! Great Technicians that solve my oil leak issues on the first try. Now my driveway is nice and clean. Thanks again for helping me to stay on the road safely.Tc
Took my car for an oil change since they had really good coupons for the synthetic oil and everywhere else was about $100, Im pleased with the service.
Cruising up the I5 on a family vacation and we had an explosive coolant leak. I limped my car in to the shop and they had me repaired and back on the road in 3 hours. I believe Trent was the manager. Good service and fair price.Cheers
Everyone here is so friendly! They explained all of the repairs and costs of everything that needed to get fixed. Thank you guys! I’ll see you for my next oil change and will be referring all my friends and family!
Ran over a pile of metal bars on highway while changing lanes. What kind of odds could it be! Took my car to MIDAS at this location to check out, just to be on the safe side. The manager, Marco, took my car in and provided a thorough check for any problems or issues. All for free! Thank you!I felt my good luck is back again!
Always nice and welcoming. They r always will to try and give me some kind of a discount. They always show me whats wrong with the car before they fix it. I like that they do that.
I came for an oil change just because it is %30 less than dealership. Never coming back. They told me to pick up the car after 3 hours. I came after 3 hours, asked for the car, they havent even started working on it. I am not even sure if they did anything they say other than oil change. Totally not trustworthy . Total disappointment. Dealership from now on, all the time. My bad to trust Midas brand!
Professional, courteous and a job done right the first time. Both the Manager Kevin and the Mechanic Danny informed what they felt was needed and the repairs were completed in a timley manner.. I would recommend this repair shop to anyone who is looking for a honest repair shop.. I found my new go to guys..
Nice staff. If you standard items that need install or replacing they do a great job. Dont expect custom items or install.
Vague explanation of repairs, expensive labor rate 118 an hour? 2 dollars more you can go to a dealership. Paid for an inspection on my car so that I can have peace of mind that my car is running alright, after I got my car back I didnt feel right about it so I had a second opinion done and turns out my air filter needs to be replaced urgently which Midas didnt tell me, and there was some fluids that needed to be topped off.. Probably will not be returning.
Took my car Lexus ES350 to fix the AC . Got a call back after 3 hours that he could not diagnose what is the problem and it is better to take it to the dealer, reporting that all fuses are good AC dose not kickin and charged me $86.00 for no diagnosisWas a mistake as it seems they do not have an AC tech and not equipped for the job - will never be back and do not recommend anyone to use this place
Management is honest. Even gives list of repairs that you can take to a competitor. Price quotes are close to final bill.
Fast and reasonably priced oil change
I just came in and was very surprised to see that the manager was willing to fix my flat tire for free when he learned i was hurting on cash. I will come back here 100%. And recommend this place to everyone.
Came in for a new battery and although the battery was not available and would have to wait a couple days for it, they hooked it up with another pricier battery for the same price. Really appreciate it and highly recommend this Midas to anyone looking for great, friendly service.
Highly recommendedBring all of my out-of-warranty work here
Great service!
A big shout out to the team. Cameron treated my car as if it was his personal million dollar baby. Thanks for the help, guys.
Dan was very helpful! He explained the work that needed to be done ! When I told him I was on a budget,he suggested the work that was necessary to fit my budget!
Front desk could be more professional!
Awesome
Very dishonest shop. they claimed structs needs to be changed due to the noise from the brake. structs costs more than $1000 and not safety critical. Turns out master cylinder was the problem at different shop only at $250+tax.
Im here waiting to open sign said it opens at 8:00 am no one is here
You really cant beat a $20 car inspection, oil change and tire rotation.
Great service
Oil change for 20 is a scam to get you on the door, then they want to charge 100
Good
