Wow thank's for that update man, i have the invoice for six and the pads yeah i know it's shoes sorry but yeah. I started the car this morning to try to move it and now it won't move at all in first gear feels like they reassembled the shoes wrong and there stuck i have a certified mechanic coming tommarow to check the work they did and i'm not going to touch it till he lets me know in writing what's wrong i have contacted a lawyer already and just waiting for the mechanics list and anything else that might have been damaged by them. I notified the owner that i will have it checked and the shoes, wheel cylinders, Master cylinder were tampered or installed wrong i will be filling full charges and if he does not want to be taken to court he needs to either refund my money or repair it correctly asap. He has not responded at all.

Just a couple of thoughts regarding the Midas complaint.....
I've used them and got great service, but a couple of things
stand out as strange about the complaint:
A 1948 Dodge will NOT have pads on the brakes, disc brakes
were not in use until the 1960's....
and 6 wheel cylinders? There is ONE cylinder per wheel for
a maximum number of FOUR on a 48 Dodge.

Well i went to pick up the car and they claimed to have fixed it paid then when i went to start the car the breaks fell to the floor!!!!! i went inside and complained to Sergio and said the breaks are worse then when i had brought it in. Asked if they could look at it and make it safe and they wanted to charge me 700 for the master cylinder!!!!!! I tried to get a partial refund since the car was worse and said i'll pay for the parts just refund the rest and i'll be on my way and NO!!! called the manager no answer had to have a tow take it home. When the driver of the tow truck looked at it he master cylinder since he has a similar car too put a wrench and fixed the problem presto!!!!!! What a bunch of losers at Midas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well i filed fraud charges for non services at the bank. I'm out 900 in cash but i'm going to have sears fix it and look at what they did and if they didn't fix my cylinder seals like promised i'm going to file charges. The main manager called me 3 hrs later and was the rudest person and said he has lawyers and to do what i have to do. Do not do go there what so ever and never trust them with any repairs i repeat do not do go THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a bunch of ripoff artist they are.
