Does anybody know where I can get my home cassette tape deck repaired? Preferably on the west side. It's a Kenwood and it'll rewind but will not play. I'm thinking belts and pulleys replacements.

That sounds pretty expensive as tape decks have gone out of fashion.
You can find a Kenwood or Pioneer for a fraction of what it would cost to repair at one of the auctions on the west side. Someone mentioned a storage auction a few days ago. Or Craigslist, yard sales, etc.
Thanks riviera. Yeah, I know I can get a tape deck that works but I just hate throwing equipment away if it can be repaired. I also get attached to stuff. I have about 40 tape cassettes I made from various jazz records to play in my car when I use to take trips up north, etc. I also want to see if I can transfer the cassette contents to CD.
Belts are easily found if you search on google giving deck model number. Many come with instructions too. Some are easily replaced, and some a little more difficult.
Not true for everyone.

I still have one.
That article is three years old and I have yet to see a comeback, more like a quick fad. I remember when they said LP's were coming back into fashion a couple of years back...
That being said I still own hundreds of tapes and at least 4 tape players.
The only thing is when theres a trash day in my neighbourhood, there are 5-10 tape players [[and many more vcr's) that I can see thrown out on my route to the shops.
There were newer articles saying the same thing. No, tapes and LPs won't be making a mass market comeback but there is a still a cult following among music geeks.That article is three years old and I have yet to see a comeback, more like a quick fad.
