KSK Discount Tire & Auto Services

This business should be closed down for fraud. They did not complete the work as instructed and caused further damage. They have many police reports filed against them and the town of Port Washington is currently trying to put them out of business by building up a case against them. Whatever you do DO NOT go to them and tell all of your friends on Port Washington not to go to them. They will break your car on purpose and claim things happened randomly of no fault of theirs. Trust me, I have spoken with multiple customers who experienced the same thing. Stay away!

I took my car here for the special and got the old bait and switch! Coupons don’t mean much here either. My car was brand new and it needed brakes, belts, etc. I declined and wanted to leave. They threatened to remove my inspection even whenI flipped out on them. They still took it, but luckily I visited an honest service station down the road and passed without any problems. I would watch out for these guys!

DO NOT GO HERE FOR ANYTHING!
I work a few blocks away, needed my inspection done, and, armed with a ten dollar coupon, dropped off my car at 6 am. At 10:30, I got a phone call from the manager informing me that I failed inspection because of brakes. A little confused, I did not authorize any more work, and called my father, a service director, and asked him for advice. He informed me that NY State law states that a vehicle only fails brake inspection if, and only if, the brake pads are worn to the point that metal is grinding on metal. Armed with this information, I called KSK back.
This is where things got even more fun. After I informed him of what I just learned, he still refused to pass and release my car. Again, I did not authorize him to do any repair work (his obvious goal), and told him that I was aware of state law and he must pass my car or I would call the DMV. He finally relented, but said he would not honor the coupon.
So 3 pm hits, I walk down to pick up my car. I argue with the attendant, who was on the phone with the manager, about the price of the inspection. It went something like this.
«I have a ten dollar coupon, and want it honored. My car passed inspection, after all. Didn’t fail. «
“Manager says no.»
«Listen, it’s not like you’re helping me out by not failing my car, it passed legitimately. At the very least charge me the $ 20 you have advertised outside»
«Manager says $ 37 or we hold the car»
«You know you guys are ridiculous»
«$ 37»
So I paid, took my car to a real service station, and filed a complaint with the DMV.
I know this all seems far fetched, but while looking for the shop address online I stumbled across another negative review for a situation almost identical to mine. You can find it here:
