Brought my Tacoma to get another opinion on work my long time shop said was needed. They checked it out and showed me on a chart the issue. They recommended to keep an eye on it but was not critical. They did mention that the front bearings need to be replaced and described the sound I've been hearing for sometime that was getting progressively worse. My normal shop "diagnosed" and said they couldn't "replicate" the noise...for $100. I also brought it to the tire shop where I purchased numerous sets of tires and they too couldn't "replicate" the issue...on every tire rotation. I decided to get the work done and the truck rides quiet and smooth. I was seriously considering getting a new truck...not now. Thanks Angel! read more

Finding a mechanic as reliable as Little's Garage is truly rare. James and his team have earned my highest recommendation and my family's business for life. ​They recently handled a repair for my son's car, which we all anticipated would be complex and very expensive. The level of service and transparency was phenomenal: they communicated constantly via texts and phone calls, and even sent videos which made the entire process clear and understandable. ​The real integrity came when they started the work. Instead of proceeding with the costly repair we had discussed, they quickly discovered it was just a simple tightening issue. They were honest and forthright, saving me a huge amount of money. ​This isn't just great service; it's a blessing. If you want a garage that is honest, communicative, and simply top-notch, go to Little's Garage. read more

These guys are honest mechanics who will give you an oil change without telling you that you need a whole new car. Unlike other big name places in the area. Parking can be a little tricky but there is enough room to pull in and turn around if you're dropping off a car and picking someone up. Even my wife loves these guys now! Pricing is totally reasonable for an oil change. No upsells. read more

Amazing service and amazing value. Very honest and friendly folks. I send my friends and family here, too. Highly recommended!

James is a great mechanic - fair, quality, high effort and a great dude. Great business to support. Keep on wrenching.

Honest, Reliable Mechanic You Can Trust I've been bringing my vehicles (Ford F-150, Ford Explorer, and Ford Escape) to Little's Garage for several years now - everything from minor service needs to major repairs. James has consistently been honest and transparent every step of the way. He only fixes what truly needs attention and gives me a heads-up on potential issues down the road, especially with my high-mileage F-150. His prices are significantly better than the local Ford dealership, and I feel like I get even better service here. Repairs are completed in a timely manner, and most importantly, I always leave confident that I'm driving a safe, reliable vehicle. Trustworthy mechanics are hard to find, but James at Little's Garage is the real deal. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of vehicle repairs. read more

Not competent and overcharged for work that did not even fix the problem. Misdiagnosed my car's problem completely, along with charging double his cost for the parts used. His response to me after failing to fix the problem was to suggest thousands of dollars in additional charges in what amounted to an expensive guessing game at my expense and risk, of course. Stay far away. read more

I honestly wish I could give more than 5 stars! The guys here are the nicest and most honest people I've ever met. They truly care about the customers and always makes sure you're completely satisfied with both the work and the price. He could've easily charged me a lot of money for a new part, but instead, he took the time to find the real issue and fixed it with a simple, honest solution. That kind of integrity is rare these days. I love it here and will be coming back!! read more

I needed a the heat pump fixed they charged me 2400 & it wasn't fixed right now to mention they kept my vehicle for 3 weeks! Be warned

An honest mechanic! Their work is great and the prices are reasonable, They actually FIX problems, they're not just parts replacers. James is a third generation owner of this business (his grandfather founded it) and he carries on their tradition of quality work. Highly recommend. read more

I love our two classics., a Caddy and El Camino. I trust James, Jill and their team with maintenance and repairs. 5* Bill D. read more

Always great work and most important for an auto repair shop is they are both extremely good and extremely honest!!!!!

Can't say enough good things about Little's Garage! The owners and workers are kind, caring, fair, and skilled. I never worry about anything when I'm there and they always make time for my issue. I wish there were more businesses like them in the world. Absolutely love it there. read more

Little's Garage is, well, little. But I've come to trust them in a way I rarely trust any business, and have actively referred people I know to their shop. I've seen them face a customer asking "why didn't you do an oil change today with the other repairs?" Their response? "You aren't due for one. It would be a waste of your money." A friend was quoted a high price for repairs at another shop, so I referred them to Little's, who proceeded to point out how the other shop was overpricing to try to take advantage of them. I will agree with other reviewers that the folks who run it know they're good at what they do, and that shows in their interactions with folks, and yeah sometimes with a bit of attitude. Personally, I'd rather someone be honest and trustworthy than overly sweet and ripping me off. Pro tip: you definitely have to schedule in advance as they're nearly always fully booked. I would recommend Little's to anyone. Best repair shop I've been to. read more

Was going to charge 150 for a 25 cent peice Firestone on Kirkwood highway did it for free

I have brought my car here a few times! James is great! He offers advice and makes sure you approve. I have gotten tires to break lights, oil changes, and more that I can't remember. I always feel like it's a fair price and they do the repairs usually same day- thank you littles! read more

The staff here is awesome! they always get me scheduled in a timely manner and do an excellent job!! they are honest! I highly recommend them for all your auto needs! read more

Very courteous, professional and honest people there. They diagnosed the problem and called me about what needed to be done and did it promptly. The cost was very reasonable also. They have now found a new long term customer in me! read more

I don't know what happened to this place. It's gotten progressively worse over the past several years. These guys used to be professional. They used to do good work. It's a shame. I won't be coming back anymore. My advice is, spare yourself the frustration. read more

The only place In Northern Delaware and Newcastle county that would work on my Alfa Romeo, I would recommend this place to anyone , excellent service from all here read more

Seems like they did a fine enough job on my car, but the lead mechanic has just the right combination of smug ego and general condescension towards others to be a completely miserable person to work with. read more

The repairs were fixed correctly, and I enjoyed speaking with the lead mechanic; however; upon checkout I was asked to pay over $100 more than I had been quoted on paper, which was already $50 higher than estimated averages online for the same repair. I've never been to a shop where I was not called by the mechanic if they were going to go higher than their original estimate. I was not given notice before picking up my car that I would need additional funds, nor was there an explanation at the counter until I mentioned the difference. Common courtesy dictates making sure the customer has enough money to afford the job before you do the work. I am not sure if I will return to this shop for this reason. I do like the employees but this left me feeling shafted, so to speak. read more

Trustworthy and professional! They've never let me down. These guys are a great local business and much more competitive than the big dealerships. read more

I have used littles garage for the last 5 years that I have needed service on any of my vehicles (brakes, alignments, timing belt and water pump) Professional service every single time. In an industry that has such a bad stigma around it, Littles garage provides a piece of mind that you can't put a price tag on. I am ABSOLUTELY a lifetime customer. read more

Little's Garage has won all our auto repair business with their hard work, excellent customer service and fair honest pricing. With Little's we know that we are getting the best care for our vehicle's at the best price around. I trust them completely with our safety and our budget... If you are going anywhere else for your auto repairs you are really missing out. WE ARE CUSTOMERS FOR LIFE! read more

Fantastic mechanics. Knowledgeable, quick, reasonable. Would never go to any other mechanic in the area.

After plenty of horrible experiences when it comes to auto repairs, I finally found the best at Little's Garage. They were very nice when I called, took me right in, got the job done other's couldn't with a difficult battery install that requires computer reprogramming. Kept me from having to go back to the dealer. Love the fact they work on foreign cars and domestic. They did a great job, didn't make me wait and didn't break the bank. This is my go to now. It's nice to have peace of mind knowing that next car problem won't be stressful and no fears of being taken advantage of. Thank you to everyone at Little's for having integrity and an honest work ethic. Rare these days. Keep up the great work! read more

My car got a flat tire on Christmas Day, and Little's Garage really came through for me! I brought my car into their garage, and they had a new tire ordered and mounted on the vehicle the next day. They were exceptionally accommodating to my schedule and made the entire process quick, easy, and super affordable. Thank you James and the rest of the Little's Garage crew for saving my holidays! read more

Good mechanics but make sure you get an estimate before getting any work done, very suspect figuring on final bill without an estimate.

I talked to Little's Garage, on the phone, and was assured replacing a timming belt would be $450 for everything. This included two other belts on the motor. My friend dropped the car off and was told she could have an up grade and the total would be $800. Anupgrade? What a scam. Unfortunately she didn't know better and agreed. I was livid when I heard this and confronted them when we picked up the car to no avail. They couldn't even tell me what the difference was between the price I was quoted and the upgrade. She was taken advantage of and they didn't care. As far as they were concerned she didn't know any better so let's take advantage of her. She trusted them and got burned. I will never come back here and urge you not to. If I could give them 0 stars I would. read more

This garage ruined my car. They changed the differential oil in my 3 yr old Subaru and a few days later on a long trip my car just stopped. I had it towed to a dealer and it turned out the lack of differential oil burned out the transmission. The dealer mechanic said it's hard to see how much oil to put in if you're not used to a Subaru and they gave me a loaner to drive home in while they replaced the tranny. I called Little's and the owner refused to take responsibility in any way. In fact he tried to make it sound like the dealer was just trying to get more money for a repair. New tranny $7000. read more

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. Little's 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! read more

Just had my oil changed and it was a great experience all around. Everyone I dealt with was very friendly and the pricing is very fair. Service is fast too! Definitely recommend this garage! read more

We were referred to Little's by a family member who raved about them. We contacted them because my car was in need of new brakes, rotors, and pads. I dropped my car off the night before and was contacted by 3pm the next day of the estimate to fix. I gave permission for them to fix the car and it was done the same day. They even popped out my fender from a hit and run. They went the extra mile to make me feel like they cared about my business. When I picked up my car, they even put my wife's car up on the lift to check the levels and added oil on the spot - no charge. My wife and I have told many people about Littles. It is and will be, the only place we take our cars from now on. Thanks Little's!! read more

I left my car there for 10 hours for them to tell me well we don't know the issue but you need spark plugs 166$ for spark plugs and it didn't help even a single bit with the issues on my car after a 10 hour day they found something quick and easy to charge me for and in the end did nothing so I'm still stuck with the same problem! First time I tried this garage off of word of mouth and the last time I will come here just another rip off as a mother I needed that money to go towards fixing my only means of transportation read more

I have been going to Little's Garage for several years, and I always come away very satisfied. They are professional, friendly, and ethical. I totally trust them, and highly recommend Little's!!! read more

Once again, they patched our old car driven by teenagers. This time it was the brake line. Reasonable price and done that day. Always reliable and trustworthy to do what's needed. read more

I've been going to Little's Garage for Auto Repair for the past 16 years. Every time I have had exceptional service, good turn around, and honesty. The owner is one of the nicest and most caring auto mechanics I've ever come across, which is why he gets my business time after time again. Getting a price quote from a mechanic is always hard, because so many factors play into it. First off as a customer we assume the mechanic knows exactly what the problem is just from listening to us describe the problem. There's always surprises and the unexpected. Even with this, James, from Littles Garage, can almost always give me a price quote that is spot on. He may be off by 50-100 bucks, but when you're talking a couple thousand that's not bad. As for "Terry", I have to put the record straight. Please don't lie and try to hurt Little's Garage's reputation. You visited them once, and didn't even have service done by them. How can you comment on this? I actually talked to the owner about your review, and he, James Knies Jr, specifically remembers. How you described the situation is one way of putting it. Another way would be you and your "friend" wife tried to scam the shop by playing the double-agent scheme - husband calls in and get's a quote, then sends his wife to try and get another, unbeknownst to the shop. If anything, it was going to hurt yourself, not them, but going so far as to say they try and scam you? Go up the street to another autoshop and get their quote. James from Littles Garage I bet you can beat it, and at the very least match it. Please actually use their services before trying to leave a bad review, let alone accuse them of scamming a scammer. I recommend Littles Garage to my friends, my family, my girlfriend's family, her friends and their family. I will continue to recommend them until the shop no longer exceeds my expectations. read more

Im a regular for work at Littles and i find them to be extremely professional at all times. I tell everyone i know that needs work to go there. read more

Our car broke down on 95 and after some research decided Little's was our best bet. We couldn't 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. read more
