Our car needed some break work done and the employees here did a great job. Car runs and sounds great. As soon as my husband drove away after getting the car we got a flat tire and it was completely flat and done for😭😭 we drove back ,thinking it was something that happened there. And one of the workers helped us right away and got us back on track:) thank you for helping us after such a crazy day!
They patched my tire up in less than 30 mins and were super friendly and attentive. I’ll for sure be back when I need more servicing
My tire became flat and this particular CarX was the closest to go to. A worker named Dakota came out to the parking lot and saw my tire slowly loosing air. He instantly went into action of bringing my tire back to life.I am so grateful that he was there to help. He was sincere, kind, and caring that I didn't want to not acknowledge the positive customer service experience received that day.Thank you again Dakota for your willingness to assist me getting to my church conference.God Bless you!
Dakota was fantastic. I came in with an issue that he was able to resolve within about 5-10 minutes, and he gave me honest advice for the future of my car. I had a great experience and I'll continue to come back for their services!
I wasn't sure what the issue was with my Honda Pilot. They ran diagnostics, changed the timing belt, changed spark plugs, flushed the fluids, and fixed all my leaky tires! Car is doing amazing, and the price was fair. I love this place, will come to them for all my car needs!
Oh my goodness, so nice! Driving through South Bend when my mom backed over rocks and took off my back bumper. My aunt lives in South Bend and highly recommended this Car X. So helpful and had us back on the road in minutes. Thank you!
The front undercarriage of my Honda Civic came loose and was dragging on the roadway. As I was visiting from Chicago, I didn't have any idea where to go, so I looked up reviews and decided to come here. I'm so happy that I did! Ray fixed the issue within 15 minutes FOR FREE. When I insisted that he charge me something, he refused and we had a great conversation about how he came to South Bend from Chicago in the mid-80's, grew to love it, and how much his enjoyment of working on cars is keeping him from retirement. How I wish I had Ray in Chicago! If I ever need work on my car when I'm again in the Bend, I'll only go to Ray.
I've been to this store several times, and each time the staff was courteous, knowledgeable, and flexible with scheduling. I'll return to Car X whenever I need a repair or upgrade on my car.
We’ve been bringing our car here for two years now, we came for the location and stayed for the excellent service and the very reasonable prices. The team is very kind and helpful and they explain everything in detail.
I like these guys. Mike makes me feel heard when I have concerns with my Toyota and doesn’t hesitate to take a look. Good prices and service.
Inspection was quick and honestly done. Affordable and fast repairs were made and will be returning to have everything fixed that they can do. The employees and management are friendly and knowledgeable and again honest. Haven't had mechanical work done this amazing in a very long time. I highly recommend was like driving a different newer truck home
Store manager Michael Tanner was very helpful when I come in to have a remote starter put on my car. They ordered the parts and had it installed I have had no issues. They were very thorough and courteous I will be going back there again.
I wanted to share our story. While we were coming back from PA (heading to WI) our car threw a fit and decided to shut down on I80. After getting help from the tow truck and State Patrol we ended at Car X. David C was such a down to Earth person. His demeanor made the situation less stressful and promised that he would look at our car first thing in the morning. (It was closing time when we got there). The next morning, he touched base with us, told us the problems and after getting the go a head to fix, had my car up and running again within 2 hours. We joked about seeing each other again and I said if I ever had to break down again, I hope it would be near his location. Thank you to everyone at Car X that got my car up and running so we could make it home safely. (My boys also wanted to thank you for the quarters so they could get gum...that was an added plus to wonderful service). God Bless and thanks again!
The guys were great they did an excellent job.
Great place. Dave is very helpful.
They are honest. They only fix what you need fixed. They let you know what other things need done and how long you can wait to fix it. If it is a safety issue they tell you and fix it right the first time. Trustworthy and honest.
I've been having these guys do my oil changes since 2014! Wonderful work, very decently priced. I'm on a first name basis with most of them, especially Dave and Jay. They even told my husband I had to bring the baby to the oil change so they can meet her..shooshed anyone who came in and was noisy when she fell asleep saying "shhh the baby's asleep" it was awesome! I'll never go anywhere else!
Quick service without taking advantage. Trustworthy.
Great people,great prices, excellent work....would recommend them to anyone
Visiting from outta town van went down guy checked it out gave us estimates didn't have enough so store manager dropped it down a few hundred since we were out of town ...very nice guys and very busy so you know that's a good thing
Excellent personal and very professional, always enjoyed the service they've provided. Will entertain kids as well, if they're good on counting to 50 no charge for the tire repair 🙂
I needed a quick issue dealt with on my exhaust. With my schedule it's tough to make appointments. Called and talked it over with them. They adjusted to let me so a walk-in and got me done quickly. Honest, upfront and professional
Had Car-X install a dual exhaust system on my '99 town car, I am absolutely in love with the sound now. I looked underneath her last night and the way they did the custom pipes is BEAUTIFUL!!! I hope these guys can see these reviews, i'll definitely be coming back with other projects 🙂
After researching shops to have my brakes fixed I decided to give Midas of South Bend a try. Kelly was knowledgeable and made room for me for an inspection. The jobwas a little more than I had anticipated. Kelly showed me and explained in a way even i could understand what was going on and why the necessary replacement of a caliper. While I was waiting I had the opportunity to witness Kelly with a few customers who knew very little about cars like me get the Honest opinion from a man who knows his stuff! Thank you Kelly and to your guys who get the job done right the first time! I would recommend to anyone needing a service you offer to not pass up Midas of South Bend!!
The owner is a good guy and the employees are the same! I highly recommend this location
Went in for an exhaust repair and was back out in less than an hour. Charged a very fair price and were very friendly. Would definitely recommend.
I brought my car in around 1pm on a Monday afternoon and the man who helped me was very kind, I think he realized how upset I was about having an issue with my car and he was quite comforting about it. I left my car with them to get it repaired. (I think my muffler rusted and broke in half, I can't really remember). By 3pm, I received a call letting me know my car was ready to be picked up. Considering the amount of cars in the shop and in the parking lot when I dropped it off, I was surprised by how quick my car was ready. The total repair cost was only $87 which was far less than I anticipated. My car went from being ridiculously loud while I was driving to practically silent. I'll definitely take my car here the next time I have an issue, everyone I interacted with was very kind!
If you want great, honest service for your car, go here. Dave and the rest of the guys do an outstanding job every time and are always fair and honest with their customers. I won't take my car anywhere else to be serviced.
I have lived on close to this place practically most of my life and never thought about checking it out until today. Every staff member I met was very generous and honest and they did a full oil change on my car that I had bought from a private dealer just a day ago. They let me know all the problems I may deal with and gave me an estimate of what it would cost. Pretty much the best oil change I’d ever had lol. I will definitely be coming back to this place to get maintenance done.
Really good crew here. Long trusted for all repairs. Honest and no BS.
The only reason I’m sad to be moving away from South Bend is because I LOVE THIS CARx WITH ALL MY HEART! Truly the best car place I’ve ever been to. I trust them wholeheartedly and they’re always quick, efficient and HONEST (I’m a woman and fear mechanics may lie to me about what I need to fix on my car). They’re always truthful and make sure you understand what’s going on. I’ve been their customer for over a year and I genuinely appreciated how they remembered my name and certain things about me. I’ll miss the crew so much! I HIGHLY recommend this CarX to everyone.
My car broke down in front of this place 31 years ago. I have been a customer ever since. Awesome place for car service.
They were fast on getting the work done. They told me what needed to get done and what I could hold off on until I had the money.
These guys are great!! Went out of their way to help us! Highly recommend
Dave and his team are true and honest in their profession. My husband and I had our cars fixed here-- for brake lights and tire puncture, respectively. We will be back here for any needed vehicle repairs or service.
