    "Contaminated oil?" That is the color of newly changed oil.

    This is the first and last time that I will be going to this midas. I would not recommend that you get your car inspected here. It is a money grab. They will look for the most insignificant reason to fail you so they can make more money off of you. They failed me for "streaky wipers." For one, there was no photo or video evidence of this in my report--just text. I asked them to show me the streaks and I couldn't make them out. They told me they would pass me if I paid $55 for new wipers and a $10 installation fee. After looking on rockauto for 2023 Getta GLI wiper blades, I found them there for a little over $10 (left and right total; see attached image). I ended up telling them to just fail the safety and I will get the wipers and install them myself and pay again [elsewhere less shady of course] to get a pass. The price of new wipers, 5min self installation, and a new safety inspection ($27) is less than what I would have paid to let them change my wipers out for a pass. Now, I question how factual their report is vs. how much is motivated by taking more money from the customer's pockets. Here's why: 1. I changed my oil a week ago and their report has my engine oil as "contaminated - service required." Picture of my oil from their report attached if interested (The oil I changed from the car was black, this is a light amber color--what you would expect from new oil). 2. The report has "recommended flush" of coolant system. Their evidence? A picture of the reservoir/housing that holds the coolant (see attached image). 3. They wrote "Issue identified with Body" in the exterior part of the inspection. I have no clue what this was regarding. They just uploaded a video of them walking around the car showing the flawless body of the car. There is no issue with the body of my car. This might have been reported in error (i forgot to follow up on that), but again, are they really paying careful attention here when they complete their reports? On top of this, I didn't appreciate their customer service. They were argumentative when I wasn't even taking it there. Their technician mentioned "I'm doing too much" when asking if I could get the wipers from Walmart for cheaper and come back to install and reinspect. They really made a big deal out of me simply questioning their inspection report as if I was completely in the wrong to be doing so. I would rather pay more money to go to a more trustworthy, caring, and customer friendly source than Midas.

    Spilled oil from a poorly sealed drain plug

    I went to this location for a routine oil change. Since the shop is under new management, I decided to give it a try. A few days later, I discovered a large amount of oil on my garage floor. When I brought my car back, I was told the technician hadn't sealed the oil drain plug properly. The manager offered me a free oil change, but I explained that my garage floor was stained and I expected them to take responsibility for cleaning it. He agreed, said he would make some calls, and promised to get back to me. After a week with no follow-up, I reached out again. He told me someone would come the next day--but no one ever showed. This location continues to be disappointing. The workmanship was sloppy, and the customer service even worse. Offering free oil changes isn't a solution. My garage is part of my home, and the floor needs to be professionally cleaned--or repaired if necessary.

    Scammers, literally don't disclose that they'll charge for a warranty on brakes that you didn't ask; they'll say that they waived your evaluation/inspection fee then bill you an extra hour for labor. They broke not 1 but 2 of my tire lock keys (I had 2 sets, 1 on and a spare set) and didn't tell me after replacing my front brakes. I later discovered they were broken when I went to take my car to the dealership for rear brakes and saw that both keys were broken. The manger Andre proceeded to get disrespectful with me on the phone and tired to place blame on the dealership which hadn't even touched my vehicle. He claimed the his shop didn't damage the key despite being the only shop to work on my vehicle in the past 6 months. He offered no immediate resolution, I had to call multiple times and then was told I would have to drop off my vehicle and wait several hours for them to extract the locks (5 lugs) and replace them vs quickly swapping them out and offering to compensate me for a new lock set! So now I've wasted several hours of my day, haven't gotten my brakes replaced and out $100 for a new tire lock set. Furious is an understatement. PLEASE AVOID AT ALL COST IF YOU CAN. Lesson learned just take your car to the original dealership. Update: after having called corporate customer service to file a complaint in order to speak with somebody other than Andre regarding my tire locks - since he claimed he was the manager and no one else I could talk to (which I found out was a lie, and he is actually the locations assistant manager) I received an angry return call from none other than Andre! He proceeded to verbally assault me and harass me over the phone about filing said complaint to corporate because he " would receive the merits). He proceeded to tell me how they did me a favor (by destroying my tire locks and placing trash brake pads on my vehicle that caused it to squeak loudly every time I use the brakes), that I was ungrateful, that he felt as though he had given me superior customer service and that I was being recorded before abruptly ending the conversation/phone call. Thankfully, I was able to get in contact with two superior Midas employees: Randy and Brian, who were both very helpful and getting the situation resolved. I was able to finally able to have my brake pads and tire locks replaced today 5/3/24 (my initial visit was 3/15/24) at completely different Midas (Market St) as I felt unsafe returning to the ROXBOROUGH Midas location based on Andre's behavior.

    These guys came through for us! We picked up a screw in our tire. Gave them a call and within an hour we were back on the road. Thanks!

    Do not take your car here for a state inspection. They charged me over double what some other shops costs.

    This is my new favorite auto shop. I got a screw stuck in the tread of a tire and was stressing out…read morebecause my usual shop couldn't help today. I called Fountain Street Auto Service and was greeted calmly and with confidence that I'd be back on the road soon. Anthony and crew are true professionals. Courteous, knowledgeable, and great at juggling phone calls while taking a small line in the late afternoon. I overheard them offering a drop off for a customer, fixing a minor thing that came up after service was performed for another, and handling multiple walk ins with zero pushback or attitude. I legitimately was shocked. Never have I seen this level of competence and service in an auto shop. I asked if they could service my electric car on future returns and was told it was not a problem, as long as I made an appointment. After all of this, I was back on the road within 45 minutes for only $27 out the door. That's half what my OLD shop charges. Amazing bang for your buck and the respect was top-notch. Shout out to the whole crew. I will be back soon!

    Both times I have used Fountain Street were "walk-in" or emergency needs (one in 2021 and now in…read more2026). In 2021 my tire popped and I was only able to get the car within close range of their shop. Someone came over with me to take a look and they helped me get the spare changed until a new tire could be ordered. They did not need to stop their work to help me, especially when I was not even parked in their lot. it says a lot about them!! most recently, winter storms and ice caused major damage to my hybrid vehicle's battery and additionally, AAA caused extra damage when I called for a jump, and they handled it incorrectly. Fountain Street accepted a tow on a Friday during this time when they had 0 appointments available for 3 weeks. Anthony was able to get my battery replaced, and they kept my vehicle over the weekend so they could address the electrical issues that were not there before the battery was dead/AAA caused damage. I had my car back that Wednesday. I am a single female living close by in Manayunk for the last 10 years, and I am disappointed to have ever used any other shop. I will absolutely be switching to regular service with these guys. They are kind, laid back, and in my case, made me feel confident they could handle the issues rather than causing me more stress over the unknown. That is invaluable service to me and not easy to find!
