I brought my car in for an oil change. They said the computer read synthetic oil & my old mechanic was using regular oil for years, so I gave Midas a chance I was not disappointed at all! read more

I had an extremely frustrating experience at this shop. After feeling dismissed during a phone call, I booked an online appointment that was never confirmed. When I arrived, I was completely ignored. The staff then told me there was no parking, which led me to struggle to find a street spot for an hour. When I finally returned, I was informed that the parking spot was not close enough to the shop (it was only five minutes away) and that they wouldn't assist until I moved my car again, across the street. I felt insulted and disrespected. Nobody there seemed nice. They clearly didn't care about their customers nor treated them with the respect they deserved. I will not be returning to this place and cannot recommend it to anyone. read more

Just got hung up on by a VERY Rude sarcastic guy, on 11/24/23 at 8;45AM! I made an online appointment the night before and never received confirmation. I call and his response is we don't work 24/7, ok. I always get free estimates from Midas if my check engine light comes on so that way I can figure out what's wrong before spending money.well this guy tells me it's gonna cost $79 to get looked at.. REALLY? From this chain store that advertises free estimates?? He proceeded to get sarcastic, then hung up on me. read more

Took in car to get the battery changed, they somehow installed the wrong kind of battery. First auto shop couldn't determine the issue, dealer finally figured it out. At that point it was too late to even return the useless battery and I'd had to jump the car multiple times. read more

Midas on Elliot Ave offers the best service for your car. I have been going to them for over 10 years and the service for the car has always been great. It starts with the great customer service provided by Rob, Gene Wei, and Jose. They explain the service provided for your car, and the prices are always fair. They can fix anything; I recently had an issue with the computer in my car, the issue the was resolved because of their magnificent work. read more

GO We came here for the annual New York State inspection. The waiting area is non air conditioned lacking proper ventilation for clients to bask in a sweltering hot room while waiting for their vehicle to be serviced, ayia! YIELD A well displayed signage of "New York State Inspection pass or fail $37.00" informs clients of the fee incurred, yet without giving status to prevent eternal waiting. The waiting area is in a dilapidated yet outdated state of disrepair. STOP There is no gold here if one is seeking to touch objects in hopes of turning to gold. Customer service is adequate to get the job done in servicing the car yet there is no solid substance here. read more

Midas - 6034 Eliot Avenue Maspeth, NY - Auto Repair Near Me - Maspeth, New York

Just left Midas after waiting for 40 min for an inspection just for a mechanic to come out to my truck in the parking lot and look at my wheels and tell me i needed brakes or I wont pass inspection. When I looked, I can see I had about 1/4" meat left on my rear pads and O showed him that, but he walked away from me. Im not a novice about mechanical issues, ive done my own brakes a few times amongst other things when I had a garage full of tools. He didnt even properly put the truck on the lift to prove it or properly check. He rudely walked away from me when I told him I see pad. I felt as though he saw I was a woman and that was his was of trying to squeeze a few hundred out of me. read more

Midas - Plenty of pad on rotor. If you know what youre looking at youll see it and know what his goal was. - Auto Repair Near Me - Maspeth, New York

Don't bother. My tire maintenance light went off and figured I'd go to a new place instead of my mechanic. I called earlier in the week to find out the cost of a tire rotation and then made an appointment for Saturday. Appointments are in window blocks. I arrived about 5 mins after my appointment window ended (lazy Saturday) and when my husband went in the guy had an attitude and said they don't make appointments for Saturday and it's Saturdays are always crazy. Tell that to Midas since I didn't it on their website. Then when we asked him for his address he make some smart ass comment to him. When my husband came to tell me to pull in and I asked him what happened I said no and we left. There's no need for us to pay anyone for a service who acts like that. Sorry, you're not doing me a favor. We drove straight over to our mechanic which we should have went to in the first place. Just stick with your local guy. read more

My appointment was between 8am-10am, and Management lived up to their commitment. The technician who performed my wheel alignment on my Buick approached his task with precession and persistence and patience in order to get the most accurate results out of the use their machine used to perform 4 wheel alignment. Fair pricing and seating in waiting room available with 6 foot spacing and mask wearing observed. I recommend this service center and will be doing business again at this Midas service center in Maspeth. read more

I got charged $97.00 for an oil change.. last time I was here I got charged less that $50.. why all of a sudden did it double??? NINETY SEVEN DOLLARS???!!! AND they DESTROYED my back bumper as they pulled it out and parked it for me. The icing on the cake was the guy who robbed me, I mean charged me, was being totally unprofessional and flirting with me while I was on the phone with my boyfriend.. I'm srsly warning you guys. STAY AWAAAYYYY. read more

Midas - Ridiculous. - Auto Repair Near Me - Maspeth, New York

We are both glad we took our Kia Soul to Midas in Maspeth Queens. The mchanic immediately diagnosed the problem; got the flex exhaust pipe, auto part and charged us a reasonnable price. The people working there are professional and offer quality service. Thank you again! read more

We went to a different mechanic who gave us a list of things, at crazy prices, that we needed done. We've been to this Midas before so we stopped by to get a second opinion. Gene got us in to a mechanic right away. We knew we needed some work done but it wasn't nearly as bad as the first mechanic said. The Midas guys were awesome. They listened to everything, read the list of needs and prices from the other place, and got us in and out in less than an hour. And the price? So much less. The guys at Midas didn't try and fleece us. They worked on what we needed and didn't try to oversell products we didn't need ($95 for brake fluid?! Not at Midas) We will be headed back here for our automotive needs. Thanks for a really great experience! read more

This Midas location is so desperate for business, they charm you into thinking they care about your best interests, lure you in with coupons then break other things in your car so you need to come back and they can profit. They broke several things in my car which were completely fine when I came in. The next time I drove it, I had extensive problems. It's not coincidental, it's intentional. It's pure evil greed. Do not trust them! read more

Always super nice, reliable, quick and efficient. They explain things in a manner I can understand and have never made me feel pressured into services. read more

Walked in asking for an oil change I was told it would be 1&1/2 hour wait or come back. I left and went back. When I asked the price I was told $34.95. I said YOUR sign says $19.99, I was then asked if I has a coupon? I said no your sign says $19.99. He asked me again if I had a coupon???? I said no but did have a different company coupon and was told "not in the U.S. " (that doesn't even make any sense) I needed an oil change so I said just do it. I was told it would be 45min. I said his partner told me to come back and I did and he said "other people came in" Must be great NOT to need customers. read more

I've been going here for years. Gene (LOVE this guy) at the front desk and also Rob (love you too, my man!) are honest people, even if you're a car-ignorant woman like me! I went in there thinking I needed 4 new tires, and I only needed one. THESE ARE MY MIDAS DADDIES! read more

DON'T GO HERE I had a lot of trouble with my car when I first bought it and came in here. They did a lot to my car, or so they claimed. I've been looking through my receipts and with the recent work I had done on my car at a reliable shop, they are having to replace lots of what was "done" at midas. I 100% trust my current shop - Urban Classics on Fulton St. Don't trust these people. Go to a local place instead - skip the rip off you'll get at this chain. I'm mad at myself for being naive and I'm trying to find them on the better business bureau to report. read more

Needed a wheel alignment and went here on a friend's recommendation. I called first to make sure they could fit me in. Gene at the service desk was very personable. The wait was as expected on a Saturday afternoon. I could actually watch the mechanic work on my car. Although the process is mainly automated, his manual input is required. He seemed intentional, attentive and effecive with no sign of end of the day fatigue. I'm pleased witht he result, the service and the price. I'm happy that I went here. My car feels so much better on the road. read more

I went to Midas to install 2 new tires and have my rear brakes done. The brakes were about 40% less expensive than the dealer. Everyone there is knowledgeable,friendly, courteous and accommodating. read more

Over the weekend, I discovered that my A/C unit had totally shut down. When I turned it on, absolutely nothing happened. BIG problem for me with hot weather coming, as well as a problem on a damp, rainy day like we had this weekend. I was forced to keep the windows partially open to prevent the windshield from fogging up. And the rain came in. So I showed up at 7:30 this morning with no appointment. Robert said he would take care of it. I also told him to do an oil change too, as it was just about due. I left the car and had it back by 11:30. The A/C worked like a charm. It was cold enough to snow in the car, just the way I like it. I would recommend these guys to anyone. Fast, reliable service at a reasonable price. Can't do better than that. read more

Great service. They are quick, honest and pleasant to deal with. I brought my older car in for a second opinion, and I'm so glad I did. I'll definitely be back. read more

Great service ! Went for a wobble after 60 mph they balanced my tires . Still had the wobble after I left , I came back a few days later they checked it and found out it was a slightly bent rim . I ordered a new rim after a week went back and they changed out the bent rim . Only got charged the first time I went the two times after that I wasn't charged which was great ! They did the right thing . Everyone from the front desk personnel to the mechanics were golden in professionalism . I'll always come back here for any problem with my car . Thanks fellas ! read more

These guys are the best! i've been getting my car serviced here for the past 6 years and they take the best care of not only the car but me too! there's never a surprise, they are upfront with you and if they find something they always call to get your input. Rob and his crew are absolute superstars as far as I'm concerned. do yourself a favor, bring your car here an it will thank you! THANK YOU MIDAS!!!! read more

One of my best experience with a car repair place. The staff is amazing, the service fast and on point. Great place to go if you are looking for excellence, humanity and peace of mind at once. read more

They are not arrogant, they are not jerks. They are down to earth guys who run a clean, fair, respectable car fixin' shop! P&A Auto Sport referred me to them when I needed a new place to service my car and I have been confident in them ever since. Just brought my new(ish) car to them for a look over to make sure it was A-OK and they had me in and out within the hour! I got to work on time! No "leave it here, we'll call you" business. These guys WORK. read more

I read Tina C.'s review here, All I can say is that it was more stylistic than factual (read some of her other reviews). This week my son wrote me a note saying, "Dad, the tailpipe broke off of the muffler. PS: I didn't do it!" I read a few reviews of muffler shops in the area, and (despite Tina's cranky review) decided to give Midas a shot. I scheduled my appointment for a Saturday via the Internet. Within a few hours they responded back confirming the appointment. I took my 1994 Nissan Pathfinder in a little early, and they were expecting me. They put it up on the hoist immediately, and within 10 minutes I had a quote. I can't speak to the comparative cost, since I haven't had to have a muffler replacement for at least 10 years. However, the Nissan Pathfinder has a combination muffler/tailpipe assembly that retails for $256. They charged me $350 total (with labor and taxes), so I think that it was pretty good. I am sure they got the assembly for less than retail, but that's O.K. Don, the manager, was very friendly. The mechanic was a little grumpy, but I only saw him for a couple of minutes total. They kept me posted on the time it would take, updating me every 15 min or so. I watched the NotreDame vs. Pitt football game while I waited in a clean air conditioned waiting room. They finished the job in a little over an hour (even while waiting for parts). He even gave me a $20 discount just for the heck of it. They didn't leave a mess in the car (like Pep Boys always does). They didn't rip my upholstery (like my local mechanic did). It was seamless. I enjoyed it. Ahhhhh! An A+ from me. read more

Great place in Brooklyn to get an oil change! Stopped in on a Monday around 1230. Scheduled an appointment online, received a confirmation email stating that a representative would call me. Since I didn't get the call, I called them after 30 min and told me to come in. I was there for about 15 minutes! ~47$. Nice staff, will be back! read more

Went to this location yesterday and had the greatest experience, every issue with my Range Rover was fixed, the customer service is beautiful, once you walk in the office you feel welcomed, and I couldn't be more happier. If you want a shop with fair pricing, no gimmicks and gets the job done definitely go here would recommend this location to anyone. read more

This is a shop that will get the job done! Mechanics are fast and don't mess around.I went in for an oil change and tire pressure check and I was back on the road within minutes . Great system, and Management is on the ball with everything. read more

Terrible experience. Final charge (with hidden charges) is different from what has been agreed on. Save yourself the headache

I recently installed aftermarket suspension in my car (coilovers). I also had a rear camber kit installed (two lower camber arms in my 2006 Honda Accord) and a front camber arm with adjustable ball joint. I needed an alignment badly toe was horrible and car was swerving everywhere, and I didn't want to drive it far to get an alignment. I went into the shop and the guy at the front desk was very helpful and said that they could align it no problem and would let me know if there would be an additional labor rate because of my aftermarket components (I know its a bit more work to adjust them). I agreed with it and they drove my car onto the rack (very low-friendly rack as there is no-ramp, its a scissor lift system). As soon as its on, one mechanic seemed very enthusiatic to work on it, as he'd never seen these components. Another guy, who was helping him align my car, just kept cursing and saying I put this aftermarket stuff, yadda yadda, and shaking his head the whole time. I was already worried since the guy at the front desk they are pros at aligning cars with aftermarket parts, but the mechanics were looking at it like it was a puzzle. After about an hour, my car was ready. It drove a lot better than before but I knew something wasn't 100% right. I work in NJ and on my commute there, anything above 50mph my rear end was starting to break loose. VERY DANGEROUS! I was puzzled since they gave me a printout and the specs were within the proper range. I ended up going to Sears in Jersey City as I didn't want to risk my life. Sears was $80 (vs. $110 at Midas) and they showed me the before picture with the rear toe terribly out of spec on both sides and the front camber was off. The guy at Sears got it to spec and I test drove the car and everything has been perfect. Cliff Notes: STAY AWAY IF YOU HAVE AFTERMARKET SUSPENSION COMPONENTS! read more

Came back from a long road trip and I noticed that my brakes were grinding. Got tired of taking my car to the dealer every time the brakes would start to act up. I have an Infiniti FX and that model is known for regular wear and tear on the brakes. A flaw in the early design models. I've taken my prior car to Midas for their lifetime guarantee on the pads so I figured it would be a smart idea to get the lifetime for this vehicle as well. I knew going in that it wouldn't be a cheap job. When you drive a luxury vehicle you know how it goes with maintenance costs. From the sound and grind of the brakes I knew they were really worn. The guys at the front counter were really nice and very accommodating. I had made an appointment earlier in the week and came in a bit before my scheduled time. No problem. They had my car up on a lift and ready for inspection in no time. One of their mechanics took the time to show me the problems and go over every detail of the work that needed to be done. I needed all 4 pads and all 4 rotors replaced--not surprised, plus a new left rear caliper and hose. Like I said, I knew it was going to be an expensive job so I was not shocked with the $1200 price tag. The dealer would have charged the same amount but without a lifetime on the pads. I asked them if I needed to leave the car overnight but they assured me they could have it ready in a couple hours. The service here was better than I expected plus the guy at counter gave me his card and told me I could call him anytime if I had any questions or problems. So far so good. read more

As a woman who is not car savvy it is very hard to find a mechanic you can trust. Rob and his team are amazing and fair. They go above and beyond to make sure the price is right and that I am taken care of. I have recommended them to my family and friends. Everyone is always pleased with their service. Keep up the good work!!!!! read more

I ordered new tires via tirerack.com and personally called up location prior to ordering tires to confirm pricing for installation. I spoke with a Robert over the phone who quoted me $129 after I gave him my specifics regarding my vehicle. I asked why there was such a price difference from the online price which was $85 and he asked me where is that price and I informed him on tirerack.com. He replied , we give them a discount so the $85 is the correct price. I said ok I will order the tires. My tires were delivered the next day and I brought my car to the shop. I waited an 1hr and 20min for a guy to mount and balance my tires to then have a gentleman named Jean charge me $120. I informed him the price I was quoted was $85 online and over the phone by Robert. He told me the price didn't cover disposal fee for tires which I corrected him that it did and showed him. He responded price increased due to inflation and taxes(which also was included on online quote). Anyway he said he would deduct $10 or I can keep my old tires if I didn't want to pay. I paid the new price of $110 which was $25 more than the online price just to be done with it. When the guy pulls out my car, I inspect my tires and all four tires were placed on the vehicle incorrectly. I voice my observation to which one worker states it doesn't matter it's still good. After some insistence the shop acknowledges the guy installed them incorrectly and I wait another hour until he reinstall's them correctly. Now I'm debating whether I should go to another shop to insure he mounted and balanced them correctly. I will be writing to tirerack.com regarding this experience and I hope in the future this review will help someone make a more accurate decision regarding this shop. I will not be going back to this shop ever. read more

I don't know much about cars, so when I went to this place I was expecting to walk away feeling like an idiot. That wasn't the case AT ALL. These place earned a customer for life. They fixed my car in 20 minutes and didn't ask for payment since it was a simple fix. So many thank yous! read more

Great service been using them for years, a great local neighborhood mechanic. Fair prices and great services provided highly recommended

I have had my cars serviced here for over 30 years. They are wonderful mechanics and never try to sell you things you don't really need.

They stand by their work and I know you will be happy if you decide to avail yourself of their services. read more

Great neighborhood trustworthy car mechanics. Reasonable prices and easy to get your car in and out fairly quick. Come here for oil changes mostly and sometimes you can find a promo going on to save you a few bucks. read more

I've been coming here for a few years and they're always fast, professional and so pleasant. We brought in our car once when every single warning light came on, fearing that something was seriously wrong. The guys told me that a rat (!!!) had eaten through the wiring and offered to only replace the wires. What could have been quite pricy at another mechanic ended up being so affordable. I love that they never upsell and are always honest and thorough. Happy to have this place so nearby! read more
