You Don't Have to Rearrange Your Whole Day for a Repair

Scheduling a car repair often means figuring out how to be without a vehicle for a chunk of the day, arranging a ride, waiting around, or rearranging other plans entirely around the appointment.

Fred Drake Automotive offers an after-hours drop box and a courtesy ride home while your vehicle is being serviced, so getting a repair done doesn't have to mean putting the rest of your day on hold.

Call (302) 378-4877 or visit freddrakeauto.com to schedule.

A Warranty That Actually Means Something

One of the more common anxieties around auto repair isn't just the cost, it's the uncertainty of whether a repair will actually hold up once it's done. Without some kind of guarantee behind the work, a customer is left simply trusting that the job was done right, with no real recourse if it wasn't.

Fred Drake Automotive backs all of its services and repairs with a 24-month, 24,000-mile warranty, so customers aren't just hoping the work holds up, they have something concrete behind it.

Call (302) 378-4877 or visit freddrakeauto.com to schedule your next service.
