STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS. This place is a shambles and a stain on body shops everywhere - never in my…read more25 years as a driver have I ever had body repairs done so incompetently and without regard to any quality assurance whatsoever. I came in with minor scuffing damage done by a sideswipe on the front passenger side, without any dents or damage to the headlight lens or any sensors. I was quoted an estimate to fix the car in about 5 business days - drop off on Monday, pick up on Friday. The first of many failed commitments as it took 11 days (including the weekend and Memorial Day, granted) to get the car back. The bigger problem is that as soon as I got the car, I noticed that the paint job was botched, with multiple (I counted 8 but there were more) pits on the paint that probably were paint bubbles that formed and burst during the rushed baking and curing process and then were completely overlooked during the (I am assuming nonexistent) quality assurance inspection. When I brought this up to my rep's attention, the pattern was established - still friendly and prompt, but complete failure to explain what happened to cause the pits, why the QA process was skipped over and to involve a supervisor immediately. The "apology" was basically "Sorry about that, but don't worry, you have a lifetime warranty on the repair" - words I would hear over and over again as you will read on. So, what can a guy do but arrange to come back to the shop, drop off his car and get an Uber home (which I paid for myself round trip, mind you - the shop never offered a reimbursement). The redo of the repaint took two days and then I finally had my car fixed completely! Right? Nope. This time around - having my trust in this place shot already - I do a very thorough inspection and yes, the paint APPEARS fine (although I wouldn't wonder if they skipped the primer this time and I have perforation rust in a year or two but time will show). HOWEVER, the wheel arch trim - which has to be installed brand new each time that car panel is repainted - is noticeably loose and popping in and out like a badly attached denture (don't ask how I know) at the mere press of a finger. See above for the already familiar process of how the shop handled this - the rep saying (second time in a row) "Sorry about that, but don't worry, you have a lifetime warranty on the repair". Still friendly and prompt, but complete failure to explain what happened to cause the botched adhesive, why the QA process was skipped over and to involve a supervisor immediately - at this point to apologize to me personally over a second failure in a row. Fast forward another few days (the part had to be ordered and painted in advance again) when I drove to the shop to have the trim piece removed and the new one attached. This time, it APPEARS to be fine, and so three weeks later and two failures later I finally had the car body work completed. Not only are these the only two examples of a failed body repair I have ever experienced in 25 years, but the repeated failures of the repairs and the lack of any QA - especially the second time when this should have become the focus of a manager's attention - are unforgivable. Final thought - when I mentioned this ordeal to my trusted rep at the service center I go to, he said he recommends to his clients to skip this shop, as they do the worst jobs ever and frequently show up with cars taken apart that they do not know how to put together again. Yikes. To recap - STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS.

Title: VERY SHADY WORK -- BE CAREFUL WITH THIS SHOP…read more VERY SHADY WORK! I NEVER leave reviews, but I want to make this known because I feel like they tried to run a game on me and take advantage of the situation. I took my girlfriend's car here because it was having a weak-start issue. I called the day before to ask about dropping the car off and spoke with a woman on the phone. When I dropped the car off, I spoke with the SAME woman in person. Neither time did she mention ANY $200 diagnostic fee. Then I get a call from her saying they determined it was the battery, along with a receipt sent to my phone. But she also admitted they hadn't checked the rest of the car yet and wouldn't be able to do that until after they installed a new battery. At that point I told her I wanted to think about it because I could get the battery myself. She said okay. Still ZERO mention of a $200 diagnostic fee. I found the battery somewhere else and decided I didn't want them doing the repair, so I called back and said I was coming to pick up the car. Now suddenly a MAN answers the phone, puts me on hold, and comes back with: "Just so you know, there's a $200 charge." EXCUSE ME??? So you're telling me about a $200 charge AFTER I've already decided not to move forward? Why wasn't this disclosed when I called? Why wasn't it disclosed when I dropped the car off? Why wasn't it disclosed when I was told what they supposedly found? And here's what makes this even worse: their own website clearly states that diagnostic fees are usually under $100. Yet I'm suddenly being told I owe $200, and the receipt they sent me didn't indicate ANY $200 diagnostic fee or disclose that I would be charged $200 if I chose not to proceed with repairs. If there is a $200 diagnostic fee, TELL THE CUSTOMER UPFRONT. Don't wait until they decide not to use your repair service to suddenly bring up a $200 charge. I have a background in vehicle repair, so I know enough to know when something doesn't sit right. The whole situation felt extremely shady, and I'm posting this so other people can be aware. SAVE YOURSELF THE TIME AND MONEY. GO TO O'REILLY OR AUTOZONE FIRST AND GET A FREE DIAGNOSTIC CHECK BEFORE YOU LET THIS PLACE START CHARGING YOU. Ask questions. Get every fee in writing. Don't assume they'll tell you about charges upfront. BEST BELIEVE WE GOT OUT CAR BACK FREE WITHOUT CHARGE.

Several family members highly recommended Midwest Performance Cars, and now I completely understand why. Jimmy C. was incredibly kind, got me in for an appointment quickly, and took the time to explain every detail of the diagnostic report and his recommendations. When I asked whether I should have a few additional services done before my move, he was honest and told me they weren't necessary. That level of integrity is hard to find. My previous Audi dealership often tried to upsell unnecessary repairs just to increase my bill, so Jimmy's honesty was truly appreciated. My car needed a part that wasn't expected to arrive until the next day, but Jimmy went above and beyond. Rather than having me leave my car overnight, he personally drove to Audi to pick up the part so the repairs could be completed the same day. From scheduling my appointment to picking up my car, every step of the experience was outstanding. The customer service, professionalism, honesty, and genuine care exceeded all of my expectations. I can't recommend Midwest Performance Cars highly enough. Now I can leave for Florida with complete confidence in my car. Thank you, Jimmy, and the entire MPC team!
