  Long story short, they seem like really nice people, but are a total waste of time and money. So many mechanics in Halifax, don't waste your time with these clowns.

  I've been going to Midas since I lived in Toronto Midas like a family I know everybody they do a phenomenal job on my car I have two thousand and eight so it's not a new one they go bad after it it's in really good condition they know what they're doing and what I like is they do not tell you you have to have it done they show you and ask you what you want done first and the people who work there awesome that includes the mechanics

  The absolute weirdest, most unprofessional experience I've had at a shop. Ever.

  I used Midas for their Tire hotel and tire change services. They cancelled my first appointment because they didn't get my tires in time. When I showed up to my rescheduled appointment, they told me that they still didn't have them so I waited for 2 hours nearby to hear if they arrived. Once they arrived, they REFUSED to put my winters on "because two of them are so worn down they're unsafe" and they gave me a quote for $650 to replace the two. They held me hostage and gave me no other options. My tires are not even halfway through their life cycle and I knew they were taking advantage of me, being a young woman and a stereotypically 'uneducated car owner'. So I told them to hand over my tires and I left. The next week I got my winters put on at the dealership and they told me my tires are safe and do not need replacing yet. They also ripped off my roommate and charged her $100 for a tire change when they quoted her $60 "because it costs us more to put on tires that weren't purchased here". When she questioned their reasoning all they could say were things like "that's just how it works". She even asked for a detailed invoice outlining the extra charges and they simply said "oh we don't do those". Snakes.

  These guys are great. I've been taking my vehicles there for more than 15 years, and I always get the straight-up story (whether I want to hear it or not).

  I guess maybe he felt some satisfaction from the inconvenience he caused me by wasting my time?

  Took my vehicle in for an AC recharge and estimate on exhaust work about a year ago. Paid for the AC recharge, but declined the exhaust work. I ended up getting it done elsewhere for a better price many months (and 20000km) later. Came back this week for an unrelated issue.

  After dropping the vehicle off the night before, I was called the next day and questioned about why I didn't have them do the exhaust work, (the guy I was speaking with was the same one that had sold me the work before). I explained that I didn't end up needing it done for some time, and when I did I was quoted a better price elsewhere. The guy that called me then said he didn't want to tell me what was wrong with my vehicle now, because I might take it elsewhere. He asked me if I knew what he meant. I asked him if he meant he didn't want my business. He told me that's exactly what he meant and to come get my vehicle.

  I probably had the worst experience in my life at Midas Halifax. I took both of my vehicles there, and was told that both of my vehicles needed new rotors and brake pads. So I took their recommendations and had them replace/repaired the rotors and pads. Six months later, I had all eight rotors and brake pads replaced by another repair shop. The quality of the parts were horrible.Then I had my winter tires stored there for the winter, unfortunately when I picked up the tires that spring, there was a screw in one of the tires. Of course, they denied responsibility and was they treated me horribly. The Midas experience was an expensive lesson learned. The only thing I would’ve liked was an simple apology from the owners. Thanks for the life lesson.
