K & K Auto & Tire Center

I had an AWFUL experience with the local dealer that «specializes» in my brand of car, so after checking out all of the other dealers on Long Island I decided to try a local mechanic. Rick is a totally professional guy who treats all his customers equally. I experienced him treat me as equally as a customer with a vintage Rolls Royce. And if that man trusts him with his car service, Rick and his garage have my business too. He explains everything from the parts, to the service, to the price and gives you a very fair deal.

I am so used to being ripped off by any automotive service. I have two things going against me, I am a girl, and I am naïve.
My usual scenario:
Car Place: «You need six new tires Miss Stewart…»
Me: «Oh, but the car only has four tires.»
Car Place: «Well we suspect that you need six just in case blah blaah blaaah!»
Me: «Oh. OK then.»
I have been taken for more rides and never seen the country with the places I have brought my car to be looked at.
K & K Auto and Tire is different. They are honest, friendly, and in my experience, fairly priced. I brought my Nissan in for the yearly inspection and was biting my nails to the quick, begging it would pass. I dropped it off the night before so they could check it out the next day. Bright and early the next day, I received a call. They were extremely nice, and explained my front brakes had about 3,000 miles left in them. Here we go… But no! They said my car would clearly pass even if I held off. Really? Wow. OK I will wait. Awesome.
They also suggested a tire rotation which I knew I needed. I gladly obliged. I was also missing two lug nuts on the tires which they replaced and with that, my Nissan passed its big test!
I was really worried this time around. I had such a gut feeling my car would fail.
I felt very comfortable bringing my car to K & K, (mom’s recommendation.)
I will not waste any time bringing my car anyplace else. They will see me in 3,000 miles.
