I took to my car to Midas to get minor maintenance and safety and emissions done on 9/20.  I let them flush my cooling system and that was the biggest mistake I have ever made!!!

Everything was fine until October 17, 2014 (not even a month later) my car started to overheat and I had coolant all over the engine.  I called Midas since they were the ones that flushed the cooling system.  They towed my car in, and charged me for towing.  Told me it was my thermostat.  They had issues getting the thermostat (hang in there, there's a patteren). Had to leave the car overnight because of a "bubble in the cooling system." 

 

Monday (after driving less than 20 miles) car overheats, it gets towed again.  Now the radiator is cracked at the top.  Waited ALL DAY for them to get the correct radiator down there! Replaced radiator.  Now I have a blown head gasket.  And they think I am paying for the towing.  I have to pay to have the car towed from them to a different shop because of their inablility to correctly flush my cooling system. I don't think so!

If you flush the cooling system with too much pressure it causes all kinds of problems.  I beleive this is what has happened and Midas thinks I am going to sit back and let them ruin my car and not take any responsibility they are sorely mistaken.

There will be a tow truck in the parking lot tomorrow morning to take my car to the Subaru dealership whether they like it or not.  I am also seeking legal counsil.

I want them to pay for their mistake!!!

 

There was nothing wrong with my car prior to me taking my car to them.  I wish I would have gone somewhere else, I am confident that if I had I wouldn't be in this situation. 

 

Do NOT take your car here!
