While I shouldve scheduled an appointment, they still got my service done in a timely manner and worked me in. Overall I am pleased and would recommend this place to anyone for mechanic service.

James, Jill, and their team are professional, knowledgeable, honest, and fair with pricing. As an ongoing costumer I am constantly recommending them to anyone in the Newark/DE area. They have built a wonderful reputation and great relationships with their customers that is unmatched at any other auto repair shop I’ve been to. If you’re looking for a garage that will take great care of your car and give honest, fair pricing look no farther, Little’s Garage is it!

I had such a great experience at Littles Garage! My brother recommended them, and when I finally got around to taking my car in for some much needed repair/service, I was very happy with the service I received. The shop has a very local neighborhood or family feel, and everyone I encountered was extremely kind, friendly, and genuine. I was looking for a place to take my vehicles that I could trust and feel good about, and this is the place. Their prices are great and I can tell they really care about their customers. I especially appreciate their honesty and willingness to help me understand the services I was getting. I will be going here from now on, and plan to recommend them to my friends and family in the area!

Phenomenal work and a very reasonable price. Very, very professional - as if you are getting work done at a large company. But prices are as if your neighbor is doing it. They stand by what they say and the prices they give. Wonderful place will recommend to others and continue servicing my vehicles here - trusted, reliable, honest, reasonable people.

Incredibly kind family-operated local business. They were quick, accommodating, and reasonably priced. New pads and rotors were cheaper than the dealership and they didnt charge a diagnostic fee like other local mechanic shops. Great experience.

Little’s Garage has been a life-saver in terms of money saved, expertise, quality of work and so much more! Over the past couple of years my 2010 Genesis Coupe has needed some additional TLC as I’ve packed the miles on, and the team at Little’s has gone above and beyond to keep it running smoother and safer than ever, with beyond fair pricing. Honestly, my car drives better now than when I bought it. I have had some bad experiences at other garages in the area (ESPECIALLY NTB) with both my Genesis and my wife’s 2014 Honda Accord, and Little’s has not only fixed those issues, but addressed other problems that weren’t even identified by the other shops; all without breaking the bank! If I can avoid it, I will never take my vehicles to a different garage ever again. That said, I would like to give a big thank you to the entire team at Little’s Garage for all you do to keep my wife and I on the road in safe, trustworthy vehicles. It’s truly refreshing to have found a garage that has my back and always puts the customer first.

Great service! Nice folks! Littles rocks! You can take your vehicle to the man or take it to Littles. The man (dealer) will empty your bank account with a smile.

The staff at Littles Garage is friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Theyre very upfront about pricing, and in my experience, the prices appear to be very sensible. They are dedicated to ensuring that your car is in great condition. Even despite a 2-year hiatus (during which I didnt have a car), they rememberer my name when I came back and were just as friendly as before. Top-notch service by fine people!

Littles garage provides very solid work! The technician there fixed my car with the skills even better than the dealers. My cars headlights and tail lights have been causing me trouble for a long time. I went to some auto-shops, even the dealers, to replace a light bulb or install this or that, hoping to fix it. But none has worked. Yesterday someone recommended me to go to Littles garage, and I have to say that it was so worth going there. With a lower cost than that from the deals, the technicians in Littles garage do a much better job.

On March 4, 2019 on my way to work I almost crashed my car. I Heard three clicks and it felt like my wheel was going to come right off. I was terrified I did not know what to do so I googled nearest auto body shop. I discovered a little garage shop and man was I lucky! I called a gentleman named Brandon said bring it in! I made it there safely thank god! They looked at it told me I needed a new Axel 😳 I really could have crashed if it snapped. I left it there and it was literally fixed by the time I got to work in the A.M. And for a Great Price! I know because I asked my mechanic that I typically would go to! (There in PA and I’m live in DE now) The customer service was great 👍🏾The Receptionist/Manager/Owners sister was amazing! She went above and beyond her job! If your car ever breaks down and your in this area GO TO THESE GUYS! I hope nothing else on my car breaks but if it does I will bring it to them!

I had a great experience at Little’s Garage! I needed a new side mirror, and they were quick to order me a new one, and set it up on my car. I was surprised with how quick and efficient the whole process was. Everyone there is incredibly friendly and helpful. I will definitely be going back there with any other car needs I have.

I would never bring my car anywhere else. They do a amazing job and are friendly people. They always have a smile on their face when you walk through the door. Just plain great people all around who take pride in their work. I have brought my car here a few times because their prices are affordable and trustworthy. Theres a reason Littles Garage has great reviews!

We have used Littles for several years and have always been very happy with their work and their customer service. Recently they really went above and beyond the call of duty for us when I had an unexpected problem at then end of the day. James and the rest of the staff were so accommodating - getting my car up and on the rack after 5pm to save my husband a two-hour round trip to pick me up. LOVE these guys. I highly recommend Littles Garage.

Review №29

Great garage, quick and thorough work. I take my sons car there to keep it safe and drive-able. It is an old car and needs some upkeep. They always check it over thoroughly, phone with an accurate estimate, and complete the repairs within 24 hours. They charge fair pricing and are patient and explain everything. I would recommend them to anyone!

Review №36

Brought my pride and joy for full suspension check last week. I knew I needed shocks but asked for a complete evaluation (which I never got from some other shops). Frank explained other existing problems, which I suspected, and not to waste money on an alignment without taking care of them. I followed his recommendations and the H3 feels like its been reborn. The nose does not dive into turns and the rear doesnt leave the ground after hitting bumps. It feels like it is sitting higher and firmer also. It was well worth the extra work and doing it the right way. I highly recommend this shop if you care about your vehicle. Thanks again.

Service was awesome! Called about an issue I was having with my tires and was told to come in the same day. Everyone was really friendly as I waited in the lobby. All my tires were off because of my use of the air machines at Wawa. The team really helped me out. My tire light is finally off.

Littles goes above and beyond with everything but their prices (which are amazing compared to the big name companies). My whole family has been bringing our cars there for years because of their wonderful costumer service. Not only that, but they waste no time. When I dropped off my vehicle they evaluated the issues on the spot and kept me up-to-date through the whole process.

Finally found a place I can trust. Very nice from the start never having been before. Took me right in, diagnosed the problem, got me back on the road with confidence and not breaking the bank. Cant say enough wonderful things about Littles. They dont take advantage of you as a female with lack of automotive knowledge, treat you with respect and take care of your car. I wont go anywhere else. Littles, you are the best! Thank you!

We had a coolant leak and wanted to change to get new pet friendly coolant at same time. Jeep dealer did not have the newer coolant formulation and could not recommend where to get it. Littles had it on hand and it turned out that the leak was in the radiator - they got a new radiator installed with new coolant in the same day! No delay for parts as is typical for dealer repairs. We will be back!

Our car broke down on 95 and after some research decided Littles was our best bet. We couldnt have been more lucky to have found this place. The staff was amazing and they were able to help us out immediately- and we have a vintage car where parts are not always easy to find. Thank you so much guys for getting us back on the road.

I brought my POS work van in there today the have the back brake line fixed. I LOST my FRONT BRAKES on the way home!!? Driving home was scary. I took off the front tires and saw that the brake bleeder on the passenger side was not closed! I bleed the brakes and tightened the bleeder and now they are working perfectly. This was common sense mechanics you might want to pass that on to your technician. I easily could have died driving home from your garage. I will not be back.

I went to Littles at the recommendation of a friend. Its just a mile from my house, so I dont know why I hadnt tried going there in the 25 years Ive lived in DE! James Fries took care of my daughters car and I couldnt believe the difference. I feel like my daughter is now driving a much safer car and I am so grateful to James and Littles Garage for the fast, efficient service they provided, everyone there was so helpful and very professional. Im so glad I tried Littles, Ill spread the word now to my neighbors, and Ill keep coming back when one of our cars needs attention. Thanks so much!

Took my car here for an electrical issue. Told them where the issue was...I mean exactly where it was. They replaced the alternator in the car saying it was not what i told them it was costing over 500.00. swore to me that was the issue. Took car home battery was dead the next day. Took back to them they did what I originally told them to do ..it took 5 minutes...fixed the issue. They did not refund my 500.00. Dim Bulbs here stay away.

Review №53

Scammers ... beware they will take your car apart and say there’s something dangerously wrong with it and can not put it back on the road forcing you to pay large amounts to fix it... or they damage something in the process of fixing something so they pass on the cost to you .... either way the end game is to make you an offer to buy the car at a low price probably 1/4, half, or 3/4 the price of the car then James flips the car making a nice profit... even if you refuse to sell you can have them fix it by paying him or take it to a reputable mechanic fix it but James will charge you the diagnostic fee so one way or another he’s gonna get paid

Review №54

Excellent Garage with Excellent prices!I was first referred to this garage by friends of mine and went there for just about every problem after that.The one problem I did have there was with my(used to be) 94 Acura Legend, right about the time I was planning my move to San Diego. Simply put, it was a timing issue. They had parts coming from across the country, machine shops taking longer then expected, and an issue with receiving the wrong part. Aside from that, they had their guys working on the vehicle (at least from what was seen and verbalized) around the clock and on a holiday weekend, props for that. When it was all said and done my vehicle was ready I didnt have the time to break it in to feel sure the vehicle would make it across the country. Which, unfortunately left me with a hard decision...I had to leave it. What a waste . Though they did help get the vehicle suited with another owner in my absence and did take care other little things I asked of them. Big help, thanks guys and Jill.Summed up, they do good work a great price and have excellent customer service. The problem I had could have happened at any mechanic or shop, Im just grateful it happened while I was in their care.

I have been using Littles Garage for about a year now and am a customer for life. They always manage to squeeze me in if there is an emergency with my car. Everyone there is polite and helpful and above all I appreciate that when I go in there as a female I am not talked down to as I have experienced at other dealerships and repair shops. I would recommend this shop to anyone searching for a fair and dependable mechanic!

What a day. Local garage said pay 390.00 something for repairs of replacement gas cap 50.00 canister vent part 199.00. Plus labor. I went to Advanced Auto they said it’s fuse problem 5.00 bucks after put my car on the actron device. I was going to get rapped. Thank God I got a second opinion. I went into my local garage to have them put the sensor machine onto my car and tell me why my check engine soon light on my BMW 2007 z4. Take the time to do your homework 📚 when the check engine soon light comes on or you can get taken advantage of out here.

You could drive a quarter mile down the street to Dempsys, get your car rolled into a big fancy pole-barn with all sorts perfectly capable technicians that will get to your car sometime later in the week... but you could start a fire with $50 bills.Littles is the best place in Pike Creek with the best prices. Great, family run office with tremendous staff. It may be look smaller, and the marquise outside may have some hilarious tagline about the local bear population. But trust me, these guys are awesome. Ive had problems that werent immediately identifiable, but they went above and beyond to make sure it was fixed.

This place is HORRIBLE. I took my car in there for service and 200 miles later in the middle of nowhere my car just died. Had to tow it to a dealer who diagnosed the problem, which was caused by this shop. It was the only service I had had done to it before the car died. It cost Seven. Thousand. Dollars. Called them and they denied that they caused the problem. Tough luck, bud.

Dropped my daughter off at school and when I got back to the car it wouldnt start. Called Littles and they came out in about 15 min to jump my car for me. We then found out my alternator went bad. They followed me down the road to their shop and they charged my battery and replaced my alternator in less than an hour and got me back on the road. Thanks for going out of your way and providing such good service.

Ive been going to Littles Garage for over a year now, and Ive yet to be disappointed. They always do quality work for a good price and are not trying to get one over on you, unlike the dealership and other repair shops Ive dealt with. I will continue to go to Littles for all my Jeep maintenance in the future, and its definitely worth your time to check them out.

Review №71

I have been here many times with a car I just purchased from someone. The car broke down 3 times this week, and each time I called Littles they took me in the same day, diagnosed the problem and got me out on the road. They did everything each time to make sure I was safe going back out on the road and were extremely honest every time I was in. The last time tonight my car broke down, I called 40 minutes before they closed. They had someone there in 5 minutes to try and jump my car and then offered me to come right over once my insurance road side assistance came because Id already called for a tow. 15 minutes after they closed I called just to leave them a message that I would leave the car sunday because I didnt have a ride home after the tow dropped off the car, but the owners answered and said they didnt want me in any kind of predicament like today, and offered to drive me home instead. It is REALLY rare to find great mechanics today, let alone honest ones. But let me tell you that the men (and women) of Littles are a class act neighborhood go to mechanic shop if you ever saw one. The owner drove me home, made sure I got in ok, and promised to have my car done monday when they opened back up. They helped me all day when I was at my wits end crying in my car that had broken down for the 3rd time at the tail end of the week. Even sitting in the lobby with the other patrons, we couldnt help but boast about how amazing everyone here is. They explain everything to you, and tell you when a repair isnt necessary just yet so you arent piling on costs all in one trip. Thank you for everything guys! You truly are the best of the best!!

I have used littles garage for the last 5 years that I have needed service on any of my vehicles (brakes, alignments, timing belt, tires, water pump) Professional service every time. In an industry that has such a bad stigma around it, Littles garage provides a piece of mind that you cant put a price tag on. I know that I am getting quality service at a reasonable price. I dont have to question what I am being charged for, James, Frank, or Jill will explain exactly what was done to my vehicle in a way that I can understand. I recommended Littles to everyone that I know.I am ABSOLUTELY a lifetime customer.

Review №77

After my mom received stellar service at Littles, she advised my wife and I to take our cars there. At the time, my wifes car had been making odd sounds so we took her car, a Hyundai Elantra, in. Littles called before doing any work to tell her what they had identified as the problem (brakes) and what the cost would be (less than we expected!). When we picked up her car, the mechanic had, free of charge, also popped out the dent in her front bumper (from a hit and run incident months ago). While there, I asked to schedule a safety check and oil change for my Subaru Forester. They asked if we had 5 minutes-and right then and there they did a quick check of my vehicle and then scheduled me for a full safety check and oil change for a few days later! Every interaction weve had with Littles Garage has far exceeded our expectations. They have been courteous, prompt, pleasant, and have gone above and beyond. We will only take our cars there for any and every auto need!
