The spookiest time of year is upon us. And though 2020 has already offered us all plenty of scares and craziness, this is still a fun holiday where we can escape the real world for at least one night. Whether your family goes out trick-or-treating this year you just celebrate safely at home or work, we encourage everyone to dress up, enjoy some candy and have a very Happy Halloween! Winter is Coming Halloween is also a wonderful time to celebrate the fall season. We love the changing colors throughout Northern Delaware and there's a special little chill in the air at night to remind us that winter is just around the corner. Things are about to get much colder and that will put more stress on your car. Your tires, wheels, brakes, battery, engine, transmission and cooling system will all be working a little harder in the winter months. Vehicle Inspection and Preventative Maintenance ... read more

Lynette recently brought her car into Fox Run Auto for repairs. She thought it was one problem based on what another auto shop told her previously, but she wanted a second opinion. Lynette had also downloaded a service coupon from our website (we also have great Groupon deals from time to time) and was willing to give our shop a try. "Quick and efficient and coupon friendly," Lynette says in her online review. "The issue I thought I had, I don't. They advised me and moved forward with what was needed. I've been told I needed things I haven't in the past so this was a big plus for me." At Fox Run Auto, we believe in telling it like it is. We're not here to upsell our customers on unnecessary automot ... read more

All modern vehicles have an emissions control system that is designed to minimize the amounts of noxious gas expelled into the environment. The fuel tank, engine, crankcase, carburetor and exhaust system can all produce harmful gases and the emissions system (also known as the EVAP system) helps to control how those gases are burned off before any exhaust fumes are expelled from the tailpipe. The newer the car, the more sophisticated the emissions control system and its various sensors and components will be. As emissions standards continue to get stricter, it's vital that your exhaust system and other emissions controls are working properly. Fox Run Auto is an emissions specialist has identified four common signs that your vehicle might be having emissions system problems: 1. Warning Lights The most com ... read more

Comfort has always been important to us at Fox Run Auto. Over the years, people have really enjoyed our customer lounge while they wait for their vehicles being serviced. There are comfy leather couches and a 70-inch television, along with a fresh pot of hot coffee always available. We also offer free wi-fi to all our guests. Changing Times Unfortunately, COVID-19 restrictions have forced us to limit the amount of people allowed in our indoor customer lounge. Only two people are allowed to wait inside at any given times and face masks are a requirement. We're all doing our best to get through these trying times, and like all of you, we can't wait for this whole nightmare to be over. Until then, we still want to make your wait as comfortable as possible. Outdoor Waiting Room This is why we set up our new outdo ... read more
