Took my car in for a radiator fluid leak and overall inspection. Thermostat and a seal was replaced ever since my car shakes and makes a bubbling sound also my reservoir was empty the next day . Staff told me after the change gravity used the rest and they refilled it I've never heard that before. Cost almost a thousand and now it will cost more to have the radiator flushed again at a different shop because I don't trust the work. On the inspection I was told I need 4k in repairs and my tire was loose . I took it to another shop and they found a bolt that was hand tightened and stripped out , my wheel was close to falling off and was lucky I took it to them . They replaced the bolt and my steering is fine . I'm super upset this wasn't caught by midas and was told I needed thousands in repairs . read more

"Javair was extremely helpful and provided great customer service, making sure everything I needed for my car was handled."

Took my old Toyota in to have rotors and brake pads installed. This seems to be one of the few chain businesses that allows for customers to provide their own parts (although they said some restrictions do apply). I was happy with the work and thought it was affordable enough. I would return again if I need anything else. read more

‍ Uber driver here. I've visited this place a number of times to have various issues with my car serviced. I put a LOT of miles on my car each month, so having an honest, to-the-point mechanic is CRITICAL. These guys got me out of a bind on many occasions. Each and every time these techs were able to provide a diagnoses, a quote and a thorough review of my car's condition. Always In a timely manner. I never felt i was being taken advantage of, or overcharged. Javier is your guy. He's THE guy. Anytime i needed service I would ask for him, or how he was doing if he wasn't there. He's a good guy and a good worker who works hard and is to-the-point. Very knowledgeable too. I learned a couple things about my vehicle and the trade while talking with him. It should be apparent to anyone that he's been in the trade for quite some time. He knows what he's doing. On most occasions, Javier was the manager on duty when I came in. He always saw to it that my car was serviced properly, and that any issues were brought to my attention. He made sure i was aware of what i was paying for and went the extra mile to ensure i understood what condition my car was in. Always thoroughly Explaining their findings -- From the issues i was concerned with when I brought the car in, to the issues that needed attention, as well as the issues that could either wait or possibly arise soon thereafter. He even would often take me into the Garage to visibly show me what he was talking about. My only regret is that i took FOREVER to get around to leaving him and this store a review. Like seriously, this store, and especially Javier are trustworthy mechanics. They deserve your respect, your trust, and however much money they make and then-some. I hope they all do well in this regard. Pay them their due. Javier, if you ever get a chance to read this-- I seriously thank you. I couldn't have accomplished my Uber business without your help. I wish you the best in your endeavors. It was a pleasure to know you and I hope our paths will cross again. Kind Regards, -- Daniel Valencia read more

I've been to this Midas several times and they have saved me some money. Their work is higher quality and they are helpful with suggestions. The waiting area is small and the parking is a bit difficult as getting in and out of the lot is a pain. However, that hasn't stopped me from coming back when I can't fix my vehicle myself. read more

I have no idea how this place has good reviews. I have had nothing but issue after issue and there is never any accountability taken by staff. Repairs are shoddy and hastily done and I have NEVER left without having an issue come up again right after leaving. I have multiple bad experiences that I could reference, and I don't know why I kept going back to them, I guess I was giving them the benefit of the doubt ‍ Most recently, I took my car in for a check engine light. They called me and told me that both o2 sensors needed replaced. The front driver side had been replaced not even 2 months earlier but they were trying to charge me to have them both replaced. $800 later they said it was all good. I drove my car 10 minutes back to work, all seemed fine. On my way home from work about 5 minutes into driving the check engine light came back on again. I had to take it to another shop who did a much more thorough diagnostic and discovered the issue was the catalytic converter needing replaced. This was the last time I had planned to use Midas. Then two of my tires went out. Midas replaced all 4 tires 11 months prior. We called as they should have been under warranty, they claimed to have absolutely no information about putting tires on my car. After arguing back and forth with them and digging for an 11 month old receipt or bank charge, I just said screw it and ended up spending $400 at a different place for 2 brand new tires to replace the ones that were not even a year old. Overall, Midas has cost me more money than anything and has fixed absolutely nothing. read more

Took my car in because I had a blown shock. They replaced the 2 front shocks for $1,200. But when I got it back the alignment was so bad that I have ruined both front tires. When I called them about it they said I need new tie rods for ANOTHER $1,200. But it was fine when I brought it in. I believe these guys are either crooks or incompetent. Save your heartache and go somewhere else. read more

Avoid like the plague Tried to gave one tire replaced. I showed up three separate times when I was told it was gonna be ready just to be told it was another day. Never received any calls regarding progress or change in when ut would be ready. Finally picked it up only for my cabin air filter to be left out of the glove box sittting on the passenger seat read more

So I'm a bit behind in my review, but about a month ago I had the pleasure of working with Caleb. I've been going to this location for about two years now and the guys here have been extremely patient when working with my lovely Nissan Rogue. (Good news, I have a new car). After this last visit I dropped my car off early in the morning and picked it up late in the afternoon. They tried to fix it but we unable to. And that's okay. This car has been a headache for awhile but regardless the guys here have always tried to do what they could to help me out. I appreciate all of them so much! read more

Great service- would recommend. I needed my tire patched so called ahead and they told me to head over. Staff were friendly and courteous and got the job done in great time. read more

Spencer was great! Fixed us up with an oil change and had a great attitude and was fun to chat with. Definitely recommend Spencer at Midas on Thornton read more

These guys are awesome! They are helpful and friendly and will treat you incredibly. I highly recommend them for their service and the work they do! read more

I've had good experiences at all Midas's I have been to, but this location specifically has some of the most honest genuine people. Which is so hard to find when you desperately need a repair done and you are on a budget. These guys will take care of you like you are family. After so many bad experiences with other shops I don't trust to bring my car anywhere else. Nick is always so professional. Javier is an amazing problem solver and does what he can to get you back on the road. Brandon one of the mechanics is one of the kindest guys I've met who pays attention to detail and takes pride in his work. These are just a few of the many good people here that have helped me out over the last couple years. I cant thank them enough for helping me out after another shop did a horrible drum brake job and took advantage of me. I can't recommend them enough. read more

I had a crazy thing happen this weekend. Key fob battery went out and it set off everything possible in the car. Horn, lights, blinker and anything else that could go on. I changed the battery, but because everything was on so long, fuses started to go out. My horn stopped working. Not sure what to do it was suggested that I go to Midas on Colorado. WELL, LET ME TELL YOU, I HAVE NEVER BEEN TREATED SO WELL. THE MANAGER INSTRUCTED THE TECH TO GO CHECK IT OUT! It was the fuse for the horn. The tech replaced the fuse and all was well! NOW, get this..... I ask what I owed....they said nothing. Midas just got a new customer !!!! With that type of customer service..... I just want to spread the word! If I could give 10 stars I certainly would. read more

This place is great, easy to set an appointment and when I get there, I'm in and out. Excellent service. --Update. They got new management. He is pretty lazy and loves being on his phone..and the new clerk is super nice, however, when I came in for an oil change I got quoted for 2 new tires at X cost, when I care for the appointment they didn't have the tires, and she quoted me at almost double the cost..what? So after a good 20 min of her scrounging through the computer, I got my price and had to inconveniently move my appointment to the next day.. Don't settle on prices here, see competitors. read more

Called about my abnormal cabin air filter, got an appointment right away; Nick was able to take a look at it and since it had never been replaced he was able to cut open the slot tand had me on my way in no time! Thank you so much for your help Nick you're amazing! read more

Definitely recommend doing business here, they are true to their word, and very helpful in every way possible. The environment wasn't rushed or uncomfortable Javier I believe is his name was upfront and honest the crew that is there are very friendly and hardworking they are a great team as you can tell by how they communicate. Thank you very much. read more

We've been taking our family of cars to this Midas since we moved to the area four years ago. We've had nothing but good experiences here - we always get a good evaluation of whatever problem we're having and we've only had to bring a car back once to do additional work - which they did for free. We're moving about 20 miles away from here, but we will find a way to keep using these guys. Thanks Midas Thornton! read more

I will always do business here. They've never let me down. The manager Javier is wonderful!!

Do not go here !!!This place is total con artist and lieers.They told me it was going to cost me 3.000 to fix my car and it was only a 40 Dollar fix.It was a fluid leak only!!!! read more

Javier is kick ass and I hope he never leaves this location, I've been screwed by big names like Midas before, I actually swore I'd never bring my vehicle back to this location after a different manager was in charge. One day, I had no choice and met Javier, he's helped me after a Jiffy lube location had carelessly broke the oil housing unit in my vehicle, he told me what happened ran tests to be sure and showed me the underneath of my vehicle and pointed out exactly what the problem was. I had no other form of transportation and had to bring my vehicle in to this location on a Sunday, Javier got the part in and fixed, in two days, he also helped me to call the shop that caused the damage. Just above and beyond. At one point I had replaced a windshield arm and of course during a snowstorm I thought it failed, I called on a wim after work and Javier answered, he said just bring it in it's probably just loose, mind you it was 30 minutes til closing not even a mom and pop shop could have gotten me fixed and out the door in the time it took Brandon to take a look and fix the issue..I was out with a clean windshield and able to see clear and drive in under 10 minutes. Everyone hates car issues and fear the worst with automotive repairs. Javier is honest, friendly, & isn't after the dollar. As a mother that doesn't have any family near to depend on he & staff make me feel welcomed & taken care of. I appreciate all you have done for me & my vehicle guys! Thank you for going above and beyond for me. read more

This place was exactly as bad as the most recent review made it sound, The battery indicator light in my 05 Honda Accord came on and I brought my car to Midas for inspection. I did a little research on this indicator before taking it to Midas and found out that it means that the alternator is not charging the battery. Midas confirmed that the alternator was bad but they also tried to up-sell me a new battery as well. I told the 'technician' that the battery had been replaced within the last six months and asked if the bad alternator could be the cause for a "bad" battery reading. He still insisted that I purchase a new battery which could cost up to $100. The total to install and replace the alternator was $380 ($480 w/battery)! One star for the free battery inspection. Since $480 was way out of my budget, I searched for and found a great technician on Yelp at Andy's Automotive (http://www.yelp.com/biz/andys-automotive-westminster) about 6 miles away. He only charged $55 for labor and I purchased a brand new alternator from Advance Auto Parts for $120 and the technician also confirmed that the battery works fine. Long story short, Midas = $480 (total), Andy's Automotive = $175 (total)! Stay away from Midas, if you have any issues call Andy's ((303) 427-7673)!! . read more

Midas - Nice waiting area. - Auto Repair Near Me - Thornton, Colorado

I have been taking my truck to get regular oil changes at a place near my work, but lately the service was going so downhill, I started shopping for a new joint. I definately found my new mechanics. It took a King Soopers coupon to get me to Midas, but I'll keep coming back because they were professional, courteous, on time and didn't try to push any additional services. I'll continue to post about my experiences, but for now, this place gets four stars. read more

So as far as oil changes go, great. I had a coupon for 20 bucks from their website, so the price was right. As far as radiator flushes go, everything was lovely there as well. Got another coupon for 10 dollars off, so the total on that was 70 dollars. Very solid price. Between the 2 services it took about an hour and half, which was a little more than I was hoping for but if you just drop your car off and do something else, the amount of time it takes doesn't matter much. Where I have issues is the "and also you might want to..." portion that they seemed to give every customer. For me, "and also you might want to..." ended up being a report on the rust on the underbody of my car (it's from michigan and 8 years old), a radiator cap, and a tire that somehow got a 'huge gash' in it from my house to the shop. Now, I'm not accusing them of doing anything to my tire, at all. I just hate the fact that whenever a shop comes into the picture one thing turns into other things. Call my cynical, suspicious, or a plain out dick, those are all probably true at times. The radiator cap was 8 dollars, sure, throw it on there, no problem. The tire? The cheapest he had was 85 dollars plus mounting. No thank you. Discount can get me something used for a bit cheaper. I don't want this to seem super negative, because for the services I wanted them to perform, they did the job. I just hate sitting in the lobby and hearing them say "you also should take a look at this because it needs to get replaced soon and its gonna cost about 200-300 dollars" to every customer that walks through the door. read more

Took my jeep in last Saturday for Standard oil change and tire rotation. I also needed a tire patched. When I picked up my jeep I asked where the patched tire had been rotated to so I knew which tire to watch. Later in the week I noticed the patched tire hadn't been rotated meaning they charged me for rotating my tires, told me they had when I reality they hadn't. When I went in to address this they showed no concern for the fraudulent behavior. They offered to rotate to k the tires but were unapologetic as if this just happens. Won't be returning to Midas read more

So i acquired a $19.99 coupon for an oil change and tire rotation and took advantage of it. Graham was very helpful and nice and had wonderful customer service. The only reason why I am giving Midas a 2 star is because the guy who working on my car didn't rotate my tires!! He literally unscrewed the bolts and left them on in the original spot. Then when Graham asked him, he said yes he rotated them. What a joke. I had better service at Brakes Plus and the workers did their job. read more

Javier and the whole team here are outstanding! Very trustworthy and knowledgeable. Great place for all your vehicle needs. Very rare you find a place like that. Highly recommend you try it out and see for yourself! read more

Called an hour before closing time for a radiator flush and they took care of it! I'm a fan!

Since I purchased my 2010 Honda Accord I have taken it to auto mechanics for regular oil changes. 07/11/2019: During my visit on 7/11/2019 at Honda dealership for an oil changes (Mileage at 141374). I was informed by dealer: "Oil pan threads stripped due to the wrong oil plug and let the previous service know". 03/25/2019: My wife brought our 2010 Honda Accord to Midas for an oil change on 3/25/2019 and completed around 4:05PM. When I got back home from work around 6:30PM and noticed fresh oil stain on the drive way after car park there for about 2 hours. This never happened to our Honda Accord before. I told my wife this is not normal and need to take car back to Midas to fix this. My thought was oil plug put in wrong position which only need to unscrew and screw it back to oil pan. 03/26/2019: My wife brought car back to Midas early morning next day and drove home about 15 minutes after Midas mechanic person told her oil dripped is fixed. 03/27/2019: Oil still dripped on drive way so my wife took car back to Midas in the next morning (03/27/2019). We thought that no other issues after oil dripped fixed 07/12/2019: On 7/12/2019 my wife took my car back to Midas and let them know about what auto dealer found: "Oil pan threads stripped due to the wrong oil plug caused it to be stripped. Let service know". Hayden, assistant manager from Midas, told my wife to come back 5PM next day to see Katelynn, Store manager. 07/13/2019: We came to Midas around 5PM to see Katelynn. However, Katelynn was not there. So I start to talked to Hayden about "Oil pan threads stripped due to the wrong oil plug" Hayden argued us that Midas noticed down on the 3/25/2019 (Millage at 138661) invoice: "drain plug went in drain pan rough rec new oil pan in the next couple of oil changes" which Midas did not verbally let us know on that day (03/25/2019). We never had oil pan threads stripped that caused oil dripped before on our 2010 Honda Accord. I let Hayden know that Midas also did oil changes for this car previously on 8/17/2018 (Millage at 135736) without any notice about oil pan thread stripped. Hayden told us we should get phone call from Mindy, Midas district manager next Monday morning (07/15/2019). 07/15/2019: I receive no phone call from Midas at all (Mindy, district manager) 07/16/2019: Called Midas in the morning at phone 303-280-1131 and talked to Hayden manager (maybe Katelynn). She told me to bring car back on next day and Midas will take care of the issue, replace oil pan. 07/17/2019: My wife take car back in the morning of 07/17/2019 for oil pan replacement. However, we get the message from Midas that we have to pay for this. I called back and talked to Hayden, assistant manager, who said I should expect call from his manager soon. I told my wife pick up the car from Midas after I talked to Midas manager but again Midas manager did not call me at all. 07/18/2019: I called Hayden and said that I did not receive any phone call from his manager. He said his manager was busy whole day in the meeting Is this the way Midas doing business? Walked away issue and did not care to call customer. read more

Caution! Went in with a dead battery and they also told me that I needed an alternator. They quoted just under $900 for both. Battery was old so I knew it had to be replaced but I didn't believe that the alternator was bad and that price is way too high. Told them to just replace the battery. Left Midas and immediately went to another place to have alternator checked, no problem at all with alternator. Just to be sure, I waited 2 days and took it in to a different place. They tested entire electrical system and found nothing wrong. Thornton Midas is one of those places you hear about that performs unneeded repairs. Stsy.away! read more

I've been taking my vehicles to Midas for at least five years now on 120th by Kohl's. Tony is one of the mechanics at this location and has been our mechanic that works on our cars. I highly recommend Tony if you need your car worked on. The guy is honest and knows what he's doing. He only recommends what needs to be done and what you might need done in the future. If you are looking for an honest mechanic, call and make your reservation with Tony at this Midas. You will not be disappointed! Thank you Tony! read more

They no longer except checks. Of course they worked on my car and then told me that. I had to ask the guy to give me my car on the honor system just so I could go get cash. I think he agreed only because they were charging me $53 to say, "We can't work with on Volvo computers, you have to take it to the dealer.". Also something they should have been up front about. Why two stars you say? Because when I explained to the guys about being a single mom on disability, they worked with me despite company policy. They got my window shut...just not repaired. So if you use checks or own a Volvo... Pick another shop. read more

Do not go to this place!!!! They are the defenition of crooks. I brought my car in for break pads and they told me three other things were wrong with my car and that fixing them would come to a total of 2800!!! Turns out nothing was wrong and they were just trying to screw me. Be careful with any mechanics shop but don't let these people underneath your car under any circumstances. read more

If I could leave 0/5 stars I would. We took our Toyota Corolla in to get a brake change. After we got our car back, the brakes were making this horrible grinding noise. We took it back and they proceeded to tell us it was just dust and dirt and dust in between the brake pads. We said okay and we took it to the car wash and sprayed as much water as we could on the brakes. A week later it was still grinding. We took it back and asked them if they could drive it and then the manager said he could hear it and he had to reorder different brakes because they said "we put the brakes in wrong" and blamed it on the brakes brand being "recalled." Anyways they fixed it and replaced them again. Then a month later we took our car in for some other work and when this place did their inspection they said the rear brakes were so dirty they said it was putting pressure on the front brakes and wearing them out faster. read more

Not sure what happened to Ryan, but for us, we love this place. Been coming here for years. Consistently reliable and honest. And if you ask, they'll freely apply discounts. They've saved me many times, and even through their couple of owner changes, they've remained a reliable mechanic for me. And trust me, I have auto mechanic nightmare stories - check my other reviews on Meineke and AAMCO if you must. read more

We've been coming to this Midas for years. It was recently taken over by new management, and Nate, the new manager, was awesome to work with. He worked hard to make sure we were happy, went above and beyond to ensure our vehicle was safe, and never made me feel like I was the "stupid woman" at the auto shop. I highly recommend them - Nate will make sure you're taken care of. read more

I recently took my car to Midas to have it looked at as my car was smoking and my steering wheel seized up and I had to really crank it, to be able to turn my steering wheel. The next day I was surprised to hear that it would cost $1,290 to have my power steering pump replaced!!! I found a privately owned mechanic shop, that said Midas was way over charging me for the part, as well as added other things that technically didn't need to be replaced however it was all in the same area as my power steering pump. Apparently big named shops are notorious for doing up-charging people. From now on, I am taking my care to privately owned mechanic that will charge fair prices, and who has a good reputation. I will stay away from Corporate/Chain auto repair shops. ~Nicole L. read more

I have been a long-time Midas customer, and they have always taken great care of my car. I visited this site for the first time today, and was promptly and politely greeted. My car has 145k miles on it and has never had exhaust work done to it, so when I came in asking them to fix excessive exhaust noise, I was prepared to shell out hundreds of dollars. Instead, they determined it to be a bad gasket and fixed it without charge after putting in about 30 minutes of labor. They displayed great honesty and customer service - I will definitely be back! read more

When we moved to the area, we found a coupon for Midas and used it at this location. They did a great job on the oil change and were pretty helpful in giving us an idea of what kind of preventative maintenance we should look at over the next year or so. We recently added a new (used) vehicle to the family and have had it at Midas four times now. While they've been able to diagnose various issues we've had, I've begun to feel like they're looking at our Jeep like a cash cow. Every time it goes in, we're looking at $300-$800. This last time was the battery and we were quoted almost $400 for a new battery, terminal ends, and battery mount. I paid the $110 diagnostic fee, drove it right next door to Advance Auto Parts and they installed a new battery and changed my terminal ends out for me for less than $130. I really like the guys here and they seemed pretty genuine when we first started coming around, but I have a serious issue with a $380 quote to essentially replace a battery. I'm hoping we don't experience this kind of inflation the next time we end up in the shop. read more
