They would need a warrant or permission from the owner of the garage or of the car or both. They could claim there was a risk the car would be driven out of the jurisdiction if they had to wait for a warrant.

Should you be interviewed by a police officer before being picked on warrant?
If the question is whether the police need to speak with you or interview you prior to arresting you on a warrant, the answer is no. If it was a requirement that they speak with you, anyone could avoid being arrested on a warrant simply be refusing to speak with the police. Police have an obligation to make sure they are serving the correct person (i.e. - the person named on the warrant) and to do so they will often ask questions first. If they already have a warrant for your arrest, that means that a judge already decided there was probable cause to believe you committed a crime. You might be interviewed after the arrest but if they have probable cause already there is no requirement for them to interview you prior to serving a valid warrant.

How do you you secure a warrant of arrest?
You, as an individual, can not obtain an arrest warrant. The most you can do is make a report of the offense to the police and, if upon investigation, they determine that the suspect you name is the perpetrator they will either arrest them or THEY will apply for a warrant for their arrest. In some jurisdictions, if you witness an offense you may go to a Magistrate, Justiice of the Peace, or the court, and swear to an "information" which, if legally sufficient, could have the effect of having a 'summons to appear' (in court) being issued to the individual that you name.
