Your brakes are important every day of the year, but they are extra important in the winter months. You need a healthy brake system that is working properly to help you stop and slow down when road conditions aren't ideal and visibility on Northern Delaware roads is often compromised with rain, fog, mist, sleet or snow. In addition, the wet roads, road salt, ice and other grease and debris can accumulate under your car as you drive in the winter. This can gunk up the brake system and cause issues. Professional Brake Inspection and Service Now is a good time to get your brakes checked by a local automotive repair specialist. If you are in the Northern Delaware area, Fox Run Auto is here to help with all your brake service needs. Brake Service Specials Be sure and visit our Specials page to download our m ... read more

Vehicle inspections are very important to what we do at Fox Run Auto. They allow our technicians and diagnosticians to identify potential automotive problems for our customers. They enable us to provide more accurate repair recommendations and price estimates. Above all else, they ensure we are able to get the job done right by eliminating guesswork. Determining the Specific Problem(s) If you call an automotive shop and they give you a quote over the phone, they really are just guessing what work needs to be done based on what you are able to tell them. You think you might have transmission problems, but perhaps it's really an engine issue and the shop won't know that until they actually see the vehicle in person and can determine the specific damage.
