This place is fine in terms of work, but a total cluster in terms of operations. Specifically, they…read moretold me my kid's car was inoperable and a problem they couldn't fix. I asked if I needed to get it towed away while we figured out what to do with it. Twice I was told not to worry about it, that they had cars in the lot that had been there much larger than mine. I believed them. Today I got a call from a local tow company that they had my car and it'd be $600 to get it back. I called and spoke to Jordan to ask what happened and he just shrugged. No phone call, no email, no notice. Just making stuff up as they go. I totally understand wanting the car off the lot, but I don't understand misleading me then not informing me then not honoring their word. This is a totally senseless expense.

I took the auto in for a rear brake job. That ended up almost $100 more than they quoted me…read more Partially because of a "facility" fee. Apparently, they can't afford the rent and now have to tack on undisclosed fees for every customer to help them pay the rent. This fee equals 10% of the labor charge and is disclosed in relatively small print at the bottom of their main sign. Firestone = you can always find new ways to gouge the customer. They gave me a LONG list of recommendations. *Tires - they said they were 10,000 miles past warranty. I found this hard to believe since my paperwork says they have another 10,000 miles to go. Also, when I had it in just 30 days ago for a road-hazard repair, they told me then I had 10,000 miles to go. Anyway, they tried to talk me into 1,000 of new tires when I have plenty of tread left. *They said my belts were going out. Cracked they said. I got home and examined them. They are fine. Trust me, I'm a commercial driver and know how to inspect belts. *They said air filters were bad. Checked - they are fine. They said my oil was low. So I drove to Walmart and bought a 5 gallon container. Imagine my disappointment when I go to add oil and find the level is 3/4 of the way up to the full line, way above the low line. Apparently, they are grasping at straws to get my money, especially considering I just paid them for an oil change 45 days ago. *I will give them this one. They said I should replace my brake fluid - the ridiculous recommendation that auto manufacturers are tacking on to all their vehicles. They must get a kick-back from the brake fluid companies. As anyone who knows vehicles understand, when the fluid gets murky, or you have mushy brakes, or brake fade - then sure, replace the brake fluid. I have a pickup that has gone 25 years without a brake fluid replacement. It still brakes fine. But I really can't blame Firestone for that recommendation. Watch out for these guys. They will recommend countless unneeded repairs. Make sure you know how to judge for yourself, or go somewhere else!

As a girl who knows nothing about cars this place was fantastic! I was stuck on the highway and…read morethey took my car in right away. Tony (I think the owner) was absolutely fantastic. He put all the problems wrong with my car in words I would understand haha! He ended up having to take my car in 2 days within 2 weeks and figured out the problem. They also give government employee and student discounts which is great! They are defiantly the GO-TO auto body shop in Lawrence. So grateful they were able to fix my car! My father in law is also a mechanic and called to make sure they were giving me a good deal and it was which made me feel much better! My father in law said they were great guys and not trying to rip me off unlike other places in town.

Absolute rip off. Sent my KU student son to get an oil change for his 2006 Chevy Colorado.

My truck was blowing hot, and I assumed I had a ac line leak. They told me there wasn't a leak, just the control panel needing replaced. They charged $350 to do this, and when I got the truck back it didn't blow at all. They continued by putting 3 or 4 new control panels in, and in the end said they finally fixed it, but now there was a leak and needed another $530 to fix it. I ONLY agreed to continue because they confirmed the truck was blowing properly now. I took it home and it's not blowing at all again. I went in today and they now say it's likely not the control panel at all, but they only agreed to refund $335 dollars or leave the truck with them again after being argumentative and treating me like an idiot. My issue is simply the fact they tried the control panel multiple times, never fixed the blowing issue, lied and said they did so I'd spend another $530 to fix the leak, and now they say it's not the control panel at all. Such a scam. Stay away!!!

Midas paid to replace the work due to their previous mechanic that worked there messing them up. A few months later the front rotors and brakes started doing the same thing (all under a year of initial work) When asking a simple question about how I already needed new rotars and brake pads in the front, Tony asked me why I was looking at him like he was dumb and became very hostile. He was very rude due to the fact that the time before Midas had replaced everything that was messed up and things that got messed up due to the bad mechanic work (not while Tony was manager). He kept saying I don't know why we replaced all this last time for free! Making me feel bad that Midas took responsibility when I brought my car in for a brake check, which he knew NOTHING about because he was not even at this location. Called me a liar about how long my car had been making the noise. During the visit I paid for the service I received. I was called 30 minutes after leaving by a regional manager I believe, that they would be refunding me because it was all still under warranty! A few hours later I called and politely asked for a new invoice and was told to "Do not return" by the manger Tony. What kind of manager acts like a child to their customers? So pretty much due to the fact that Tony was upset that I had questions and the previous mechanic had messed things up and Midas paid for the mistakes I was treated like I was a piece of shit by Tony. And I got charged $369 when it was all under warranty. I hope he doesn't try to scam anyone else out of money because he's having a bad day, or for no reason has an issue with them.
