Midas

Even though its not close to my home I have taken my car here a few times, including for one major repair. I find Mike and Dawn to be very honest and profession. They are not pushy and don’t try to upsell additional repairs or services as most shops do. They just provide honest recommendations. So well worth the trip!

I have been bringing my SUV to this Midas since 2011. I can’t say enough nice things about everyone who works there from Mike the manager all the way through to the techs. I really appreciate having Dawn at the front desk because she takes time to explain any recommendations they have for repairs to my car and I never feel like I’m being told to make repairs that aren’t necessary. People are often worried that going to a mechanic is like going to the dentist — you have no idea if they’re telling you the truth about what you need to have done because usually we can’t see it. That is not the case at this Midas. They are honest and helpful. I would 150% recommend this location to any family member or friend.

Car trouble is never fun. I had a issue with my power steering, I was expecting a «up-​sell» for something unnecessary. I was totally surprised that the team here was very honest and taught me what the problem was. The mechanic Sean brought me into the shop and showed the loose wire. The manager Mike was very informative and knowledgeable and clearly explained the issue and cost for service and fixed it the same day. A+++ for midas in Danbury, I would definitely recommend for others that are typically skeptical of auto repair chains.

Typical scam/​ripoff car service with a typical beady-​eyed unctuous middle-​aged manager. Came in for the oil change «special» and was told to my chagrin and great suspicion that my car didn’t take «regular» oil and I’d have to pay 79.99 for the oil change for the stuff perfect for my particular vehicle. I drive a 2012 Honda and gimme a break, I’ve gotten oil changes at both Firestone and Honda for under $ 30.
I was desperate and out of time and options; at that point it was worth it to me just to pay and get the oil change. When I got the car back an hour later not ONLY was I charged for an extra 1.8 quarts of oil (I was «running low,» he said, and they «filled it up completely»), but I got a list of emergency services that should be performed ASAP so that my car wouldn’t explode on me, or something. He did give me a begrudging $ 10 discount (because of the special they were supposedly running), but good lord, stay away from this dinky place, especially if you’re female and don’t know much about cars.

I’ve had a really positive experience with this place in the one time I went. I’ll definitely be going back. They were hardworking, honest, and communicated very well with me what was wrong with my car.

Be careful when you go here they tried to sell me work I didn’t need.
