Mufflers repair service near Smithton, IL

Brought car in for brake repair estimate and received nothing but heartache. Estimate was very high and shop admitted additional damage done on unrelated brake components while doing inspection to fix minor brake repair. Shop refused to fix damage caused during inspection upon learning I had decided not to have Meineke complete any repairs needed. Brought car to another repair shop and fixed ALL work, including damage done by Meineke during inspection, at half of Meineke's original estimate to fix car. Filed to BBB ---case is pending. STAY AWAY and save yourself time and pain.

Great people work here. I took in an old 1972 351C block because of some stuck bolts I couldn't get with my tools at home. They got it off with no problem, they didn't charge me for anything. I had planned on paying for the use of the tool and a few minutes but they wouldnt let me. Definitely where I am taking my business from now on.

Amazing customer service! I was given a breakdown of services I would need ..they even offered discounts. They were really honest and answered all of my questions. Also given their opinion on which services I should prioritize since I wasn't able to pay for all of the services that day. 100000% would recommend to everyone. Especially if you're a woman because I didn't get the vibe that they were trying to take advantage of my lack of knowledge. Leanna B. Saint Louis, MO

Horrible service did terrible welds used a smaller pipe than the original to connect two pipes that don't even fit. don't take your car here waste of time. Blamed engine mounts when they had been replaced and are within spec. When the entire job in the first place was bad. Refused to fix it and kicked me off the property. You can see in the photos the welds had holes in it to begin with. Absolutely unbelievable

Best place to bring your car, I have a $90,000 BMW and trust these guy 100%. I walk in I get treated with respect, everything is very well explained and they are very cautious with my car....love this place!! They have one of the best welder s I have seen...flawless welds!!

We all know how hard it is to find trustworthy business people today who are genuinely concerned with your satisfaction, but these guys are the real deal! I've been a customer for several years and don't have to concern myself with wondering if I'm being given the right diagnosis or solution to the problem. It makes all the difference. Moreover, Nas and his staff are highly skilled and competent at their craft. If you're looking for a technician instead of a mechanic, this is the trusted place to take your Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Volkswagen, Rover or Jaguar. Keith Davis

Took my car for inspection,the inspector made up new rules to fail my car. And they wanted to charge 235$ for unneeded repairs took d car for a different inspector d car passed no problem. DO GO THERE, Worse place

I took my car in to have work done on the motor they kept the car for over 2 weeks did not fix the problem and messed up the transmission when they pulled the motor .I would never give this place a thought.

Beware of the "Free State Inspection" Shady Mechanics, and Shady Business Practices. I took my truck that I rarely drive to get inspected. Emission was fine however during the state inspection they "found" something that they can fail me for. The technician thought he was talking to a idiot and tried to convince me that my tire had "excessive" movement and I needed a new tire rod and some other additional work. After he finished I informed them that I had all of that work performed the previous year. Took the my truck to Midas where I was going to get the work done the mechanic advised me that my truck in in good shape and the work Car X said I needed was a joke. After talking to Tim (manager) he was willing to have my car looked at again by a different technician. After taking off of work for a second time, they were still trying to convince me that I needed to spend $$$. Now if Midas was not willing to take my business (money) after their inspection why would I pay Car-X? They are true Scammers and try to take advantage of hardworking people. Get a second opinion before allowing them to perform work on your car....You might not need it! I will never set foot in a Car-x again!

I've called in to the Midas customer service line 5 TIMES to get response from regional management about an issue & have received NO phone call. Then I received a call from the branch manager who said he would keep deleting any request I have to be contacted, said corporate would do nothing, then he hung up in my face. This is ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS! DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY!
