About Our Shop in Nappanee, IN

LOCAL: Love Our Cars And Life

At Locke Auto and Diesel Repair in Nappanee, Indiana, we're about more than making a living doing car repairs. We make a life alongside our community members. Conveniently located just off Hwy. 19 at 28699 County Road 50, we're in the heart of the community. While it's great to be within driving distance of larger towns in case you need to reach them, you never have to worry about getting great automotive service and repair in your own backyard.

Locally-Owned and Operated

Our owner, Tristan Ramer, is native to our area and learned the automotive business from his family. Today, he, along with the entire Locke Auto and Diesel Repair staff, carries on the family and community traditions of hard work, high expectations, and honest dealings. To schedule an appointment for auto services with your neighbors, call us at 574-393-9700.

Honoring Traditions

In addition to continuing the family's history in auto repair, Locke Performance also helps perpetuate local traditions that are important to our community. We participate in charitable events to support worthy causes in our area. Also, we are very active on the dirt pulling track scene. Come watch us pull (and hopefully win) sometime! And, of course, we love the Nappanee Apple Festival as much as you do! You see what we're doing by checking us out on Facebook and Instagram.

Community Unity

We make no secret of how we feel about our neighbors and our community. We care about the people we serve, we enjoy taking care of vehicles -- whether those are daily drivers, commercial vehicles, or "toys" such as RV's and performance trucks -- and we are invested in the success of our community. We offer special thank-you's to those who have sacrificed -- ask us about our military, medical, and first responder discounts and specials. We appreciate the opportunity to be a part of the fabric of Nappanee, Indiana, and we hope to see you for professional auto repair at Locke Auto and Diesel Repair.

All-In Customer Service
