One time I went to Midas because they had a discounted oil change. With the oil change they do a full inspection. I figured they would give me a number of things that “need to be addressed”… But when they were done, they said “Your front break pads still have a bit of life left in them, but you might want to keep an eye on them. Other than that, everything is great!”. I thought to myself, “wow, they actually seem trustworthy”. I wrote them a good review online.
Never go to Midas! I went there with my Civic years ago, and when it it was in a Honda dealership months later they showed me damage to an o-ring on the brake assembly that they said was 100% caused by incompetence. They were so alarmed by it they took me back into the garage to show me. They said the only real affect would be moisture getting into the brakes which would lessen the mileage I’d get out of my pads - but still.

Well, they went out of business in my area anyway. 😂
Every repair shop regardless of brand has good and bad mechanics
