One road from downtown
Sheridan Road runs from Kenosha's lakefront straight into Winthrop Harbor, so the trip does not need I-94. For south side Kenosha neighborhoods the drive is even shorter.
Wisconsin emissions
Kenosha County is one of the counties in the Wisconsin Vehicle Inspection Program. If your car fails, we can diagnose and repair the fault here. The retest is done through the Wisconsin program.
Winter on the Wisconsin lakeshore
Lake-effect snow and heavy salting along the Kenosha shoreline are hard on tires, brakes and exhaust parts. A tire and brake check before winter, and an underbody rinse during it, help those parts last.
