Corsi Tire

I’ve used Corsi on a number of occasions and I’ve always found them to be honest, professional, courteous and efficient. I brought my car in today as I was concerned about leaky tires as the tire pressure seemed to have been low. I expected to hear that there were at least leaks, punctures, etc… due to the numerous potholes in our area. They checked all of the tires and told me that everything was good, and, actually that I inflated them to higher pressure than required. Overall I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Corsi to anyone in the area.

Your tires will vibrate because they do not know how to balance them. Trust me — I had to pay someone else to do it correctly.
They will roll a jack under your car and jack it up without making sure it is in the proper location, thereby crushing/​bending components, including the body itself. They did this twice to me.
They will charge for a wheel alignment then tell you certain settings are not adjustable when you know for a fact they are.
I went for an inspection just a couple months after the wheel alignment and failed because my front-​end was «dangerously worn». If so, why was it good enough to do an alignment just a month or two earlier?
The took my car for a «test drive» after the inspection and came back with lunch.

On my way to work, I shredded tire on Route 9 after running over some accident debris. I put my doughnut on and got into work, then started shopping tires on the net (with my supervisor’s permission). The closest place was Mavis, but I had dealt with the Peekskill store many years before, and I did not like them at all. After reading tire reviews, I decided on Coopers, then shopped those locally and found Corsi tire. I called them up and asked if I could come in, the gentlemen asked my tire size and quoted them right over the phone, installation included. By far the best price.
I headed down to Ossining and they took me right away, even though they were pretty busy. I asked about an alignment, and was told they were too backed up, but to give them call and come back the next day, and they would check the alignment for free.
They are a smaller family-​run business who provide a good price with quick and courteous service.
I especially liked the fact that there were no up-​sell tactics or pricing gimmicks-​unlike Mavis.

Here’s the thing about Corsi Tire:
I’ve learned from a number of experiences that I can trust them. I’ve been taking my 2001 Volvo S80 to them for a few years now. With a car that old, you never really know what kind of trouble you’re going to have. Don’t get me wrong, I love my old car and want to keep it.
This past week had days of back to back sub-​freezing temperatures and I noticed that my power steering was starting to make noise. I figured it had something to do with the cold weather but each day it got worse and then I noticed it was leaking power steering fluid. I envisioned serious complications and hundreds of dollars in repair.
I called Corsi and they told me to drop it off and they would have a look at it.
The call came later that afternoon. The problem? A loose clamp on one of the power steering line hoses and I could pick the car up at my convenience. The cost? A few bucks.
In the wrong hands, this could have been a whole new power steering system (I’m not an auto repair expert, what do I know). They could have hit me with a big bill and I wouldn’t have known any better.
Bottom line for me: Corsi tire is a trusted place to take my old Volvo.
