Don't you just love cars ... that is, right up until something goes wrong with them. I feel exactly the same way. In fact, the feeling of sheer and utter dread overcomes me when I hear grinding noises coming from the front end of the car, despite my best attempts to keep up with rigorous maintenance schedules, oil changes, etc. Well, that was the case for me yesterday as I started to drive my car around sunny Chandler while running some errands. So, I zipped over to see the guys at Midas on Autoplex (take the Elliot exit on 10 and turn right at Autoplex -- Midas is on your right side, behind the car wash and gas station). \n\nThe guys were really friendly and helpful, taking my car right away to conduct an oil change and front-end check. They found the problem quickly and provided me with a reasonable estimate of the repair costs. I called around a few other places and found their price hard to beat. They completed the job within the hour and called me on my cell phone to confirm my car was ready for pickup. Great service! No hassles!\n\nI really liked the facilities at this Midas. The place was quite parent-friendly, with a television for the kids, high-speed Internet and wi-fi on-site, as well as a vending machine with soft drinks, and water for those of us who prefer not to pay for our drinks wherever possible. ;-)
