At Buckley's Auto Care, we believe that auto repair should come with complete confidence, not just a fix. That's why we're proud to be a NAPA Auto Care Center, offering you the NAPA Peace of Mind Warranty on qualifying repairs. This incredible warranty backs our work for 3 years or 36,000 miles, nationwide. It's our way of ensuring that when you choose Buckley's, you're not just getting expert service; you're getting lasting reliability and the comfort of knowing your vehicle is covered wherever your journey takes you.
For nearly 60 years, Buckley's Auto Care has been a cornerstone of reliable automotive service in Delaware. Founded on July 6, 1966, by Gene Buckley – a championship racer and former Firestone regional manager – our shop began with a commitment to excellence and a passion for cars. Today, we're still a family- and veteran-owned business, with Greg Buckley proudly representing the third generation of family ownership. As we approach our 60th anniversary in 2026, our dedication to honest, warm, and knowledgeable service remains as strong as ever.
We understand that your vehicle is a vital part of your daily life, and unexpected repairs can be stressful. That's precisely where the NAPA Peace of Mind Warranty shines.
