Your NY State inspection
is probably overdue.
Drive in today, drive out in under an hour. Inspection, oil change, and tire rotation done in the same bay — for one fixed price. No upsell theater.
What an expired sticker actually costs you
Standard fine in Nassau/Suffolk for an expired inspection sticker. Cops scan plates now — they don't need to walk up.
Second offense, missed court date, or surcharge stacking pushes a single ticket past $200.
DMV will not renew your registration with an open inspection failure. The hold stays until we re-test you.
After an accident, an expired sticker is the first thing the adjuster photographs. Claims get reduced or denied.
What color is the sticker on your windshield?

THREE BAYS. ONE PROMISE.
Fred Schmelzle opened the shop on Merrick Road in 1978 with three lifts and one rule: tell the customer what's actually wrong, and what isn't.
Forty-seven years later his legacy lives on. We stick to NYS guidelines to the letter — no inventing failures to pad a ticket, no looking the other way on something that'll strand you on the Southern State. We pass as many cars as the law allows, and when something does fail, you get a photo, a part number, and an honest price. No theatrics.
Stop driving on borrowed time.
One hour at Meroke is cheaper than one ticket. And a lot cheaper than one denied claim.
