Did not do the work I requested, did not have parts after 8 days of waiting for appointment
I came in on a Thursday to schedule repairs. Ended up making appointment for following Friday, 8 days later. I explained that my 18 year old car, a Chrysler 300 needed suspension looked at. probably needs springs, struts, as it makes noise when I sit down and when I turn the wheel. I also told them I wanted both heat shields fastened down, that they need new fasteners and large washers. Also wanted to look at rear brakes for future appointment, as when I stop the back end wobbles. Got it there by 8:45 on scheduled Friday. The lady wanted to charge me $110 for inspection of suspension and brakes. I told her I would not pay for brake inspection, and to just do front suspension and heat shield. She then did not know what to do and said they could not do the work because I would not pay for inspection. I said, 'forget the brakes. Do the suspension please. She created a new quote. I said, 'thanks'. I then re-explained about the heat shields. When I called at 12:45, they had not yet looked at it. Then, at 1:15 got a call from the mechanic who said it needs springs as it made noise when he sat down, but they did not have the springs in stock. This pissed me off, as I made appointment 8 days before, and springs were requested by me. He said springs could be in by Monday. I explained that I took a vacation day and had no vehicle the entire day. The reason I made an appointment was I wanted the work done in that time. They ended up charging $775 for upper and lower tie rods on both sides and front end alignment. Holy smokes, that seems excessive. Also, they did not re-install the heat shields, that they were wider than the fastener, (which is why I said to use larger washers, ~D-uh! ) and recommended removal. Another holy smokes. WTH is wrong with these people? I paid, but they did not fix the rattling and squeaking. They want to charge nearly $800 for springs. But as they did not have in stock when I told them it needed when I made the appointment, and they did not repair the rattling heat shield, which is a simple fix with new bolts and large washers. I won't go back to this shoddy scam Midas in Roosevelt Park, Michigan. Very unhappy with them.
Recommendation: Go elsewhere. They overcharge and don't do the work as requested.
Mixed Experiences at Midas Auto Centers-Sterling
As a long-time customer of Midas Auto Centers-Sterling, I've had a mix of experiences. While the staff is generally friendly and the service is prompt, there have been instances of overcharging and questionable practices. One particular visit left me feeling overcharged for basic services like an oil change and brake inspection. It's disappointing when the trust built over the years is shaken by such incidents. I hope Midas can address these issues to ensure consistent and fair pricing for all customers.

My car is loud the attentdant says he thinks its the water pump just that quick. My car was fine when i pulled in there. No help i got home my hub cap is gone of my tire
Desired outcome: Want my car fixed and my hub cab replaced
