BEAR AUTO REPAIR

  Steven had an old Chevy Cavalier that was pretty much on its last legs. He needed some repairs and maintenance services performed, so he asked around to find a good auto shop in town. One of his neighbors recommended that he try Fox Run Auto and he gave us a call. We took care of his auto repair needs and kept that old car running the best we could. This was a couple years back and Steven has moved on from his Cavalier since then. "The Cavalier is no longer with us, but I have continued to use them for my successor cars," Steven writes in his online review that was posted on Google. "Their customer service is top-notch! They call to let you know what they've found, give surprisingly accurate estimates on both cost and pick-up times, and their pricing is remarkably reasonable." Steven's comments sum up our approach to customer service at Fox Run Auto pre ... read more
