Midas didnt make it right... screwed up my car. Drove it in needing a oil change an radiator hoses replaced and had to tow it out. Midas' customer service is terrible and they lied and kept lying. They had conflicting stories about my car and don want to take resposibility for what happened to my car. Looks like we are moving forward to expose them for who they are and what they do. They are scammers and liars.JANUARY 2012
Midas, Inc. is a chain of automotive service centers headquartered in Itasca, Illinois. In the main markets of the United States and Canada, Midas stores are company-owned or franchised. In the 17 other countries it operates in, the service centers are either licensed or franchised.
In 1956 The Muffler Installation Dealers' Associated Service (M.I.D.A.S.) was established by Nate H. Sherman and the first Midas Muffler opened that year in Macon Georgia. The chain was originally known as Midas Muffler as they specialized in the replacement of mufflers. In recent years, they have marketed themselves as Auto Service Experts, as they are capable of performing most routine and common automobile service, including brakes, fluid changes, and suspensions. The name Midas originates from the king Midas and his golden touch, hence the slogan "Trust the Midas touch".
2005 revenues were $192.5 million USD, down from $197.5 million in 2004.
