That would, of course, make the engine its heart and soul. A smooth-running engine is like a healthy heart pumping blood throughout your body. It provides power and energy to everything in the vehicle. Show Your Car Some Love We know you love your car, so Valentine's Day is a good reminder to make sure your vehicle is properly taken care of with regular maintenance and repairs.

Michael DeFino opened Fox Run Auto over 25 years ago in the town of Bear, and we have been proud to be a part of this great community ever since. Mike surrounded himself with a couple other Mikes, a Rob and an excellent team of automotive technicians. His goal was never to be the biggest shop around, but to provide the best possible service to the people of this area.
