Out of the blue, my car started idling rough. Thinking it could be bad gas, I headed to AutoZone to…read morepurchase cleaner. On the way there, the check engine light came on. Once there, they were not able to help me with getting the code read, so I went to another business in the area. The code was read, but he did not provide me with a code number. Feeling like I didn't really get any assistance, I headed to Christiana Auto Parts. I was greeted and immediately assisted, providing me with the code number. I let him know that my son is a mechanic was at work that day and just needed the code. He asked if he could look under the hood, I agreed and he started asking questions due to curiosity on what could caused this to happen. He was very determined to find the cause, and asked to speak with my son. They messaged back-and-forth and worked together. This young man went out of his way and very determined to solve this problem. It ended up being a cap on the intake manifold that must've rotted and fallen off. He would not take any money for his efforts. He just seemed satisfied to be able to figure the problem out, reminded me much of my son who is the very same way. When a challenge is presented, it's like finding the missing piece to a puzzle. Bottom line, the courtesy, friendliness, and desire to help me out really impressed me. The only thing he requested is if I ever needed work to be done on my car that my son couldn't do, to come and see him. His name is Tommy, and said he and his father (and I think brother) run this business. I know it has been there for some time, passing by it for years. I only wished I had thought to go there first! I'm telling you, being a woman who has had many car problems in her life, know there are a lot of untrustworthy auto shops out there. I felt this business to be trusted in the short 20-30 minutes I was there! While I don't know the extent of work they do there, but definitely recommend checking into this place! Awesome care and customer service!!

The Pep boys guy looked perplexed and said, " "Well, it must be a bad transmission !".

Having seen enough of his shenanigans, I told my brother, "No way are we listening to this fool !". I remembered seeing Charlie's Transmission every day on my way to work, so we stopped by. Same day service. They were friendly, easy going and honest. Flushed the tranny, new fluid. Car is running great ! My brother is happy and we have found a great local business to support. They do other repairs and inspections, as well ! Great place !

I've been coming here for years and it all started because of my 1st experience with them. I was talked to like I was more than just a customer and I was walked through the things that were needed to fix my car and these things have as much if not more value to me than the remarkable and happy to pay cost of the job and subsequent jobs since. Jim even helped me with insurance and fixed something a different shop neglected to replace prior. This is a shop that you need to make yours, I'm so glad I did. My name is Brian Compton and I stand by what I just said.

I have an older Subaru, and the "CV" joints and axles were badly worn and vibrating, clicking, etc. I need the car to be very reliable, as I am a pilot who is frequently "on call," and must respond ASAP. And I will have to admit that I am also an aircraft mechanic, and am very particular about maintenance, even on my car. Keith knew that I had an "on call" period coming in the afternoon, and he assured me that the job would be completed in the morning. He showed up at the shop just before opening time, and I was warmly welcomed. He took the time to test drive the car first, to verify the failure and inspect for other issues. He took amazing care of the Subaru, with covers and mats to protect it, and completed the job AHEAD of time. Drove perfectly; beautifully smooth. Charged a very reasonable fee for what I know can be an unpleasant and lengthy job. I couldn't be more satisfied with Keith's. I would trust him with any vehicle at any time. Honest and professional. Best around!!
