Manteo Auto Repair

We have had a lot of work performed on our Pilot recently. Some of it caused by a private towing company; the rest caused by parts wearing out. Manteo North coordinated reimbursement from the towing company and then consolidated all our work into as few appointments as possible since we only have the one vehicle. The service work was excellent and so was the customer care. We would'nt go anywhere else.

I was on vacation in Nags Head last week when my car died in a parking lot. I called 4 other places, only to be told they could not help me. My 5th call was to Lighthouse Automotive...and they were the answer to my prayers! A huge thank you to John, the manager, who personally drove out to me. He got my car running and I followed him back to his shop. Even though they had no appointments available all week, and it was lunch time, John got me in and within 2 hrs my car was fixed. They just could not have been any nicer. Isaiah, who worked on my car, answered all my questions and made sure the job was done right. The girl at the front desk was welcoming, positive and efficient. The price was exactly what it should have been and no extra charges for squeezing me in or driving out to get me. If you live there or just happen to be on vacation and need an automotive shop, I absolutely 100% recommend Lighthouse Automotive.

Excellent work and service.

We had a very difficult electrical issue with our Mustang. Not only did they squeeze us in, they were VERY thorough and did find the problem.

Have had so many issues with my Lincoln since it hit 130k and Jim specifically has been so knowledgeable and helpful with every single thing. My car is running great now and I just wanted to say thank you to the entire staff for how quickly you helped fix everything (multiple times) and how professional you all are. Highly recommend you all, and to Jim, again, thank you so much for everything!

Everyone was friendly and helpful. The work was performed in a professional and timely manner. Would definitely recommend this shop to anyone looking for car service.

As always everyone was friendly and polite and did a great job.

My wife and I decided to take a 2-day vacay, and, while traveling to OBX from Durham, NC, the tire pressure warning light came on in our 2022 Honda CR-V. I decided to find a mechanic at the next town we came to, which happened to be Manteo. A quick Google search gave us Lighthouse Automotive, so we made our way there. The young lady at the counter, Naomi, was exceptionally friendly and seemed eager to help us. They got the CR-V up on the lift, and, sure enough, there was a huge hole in the passenger-side rear tire (see picture). Isaiah, the mechanic handling the issue, brought me out to the bay to show me the problem, and he was very thorough and informative (he was formerly a technician for Honda!) It's a miracle we didn't have a blowout! The problem was straightforward: we needed new tires...even though the ones on the car had only 18,500 miles on them :-( So, change of plans: we were staying in Manteo overnight while we waited for the new tires to arrive. The very next morning, Lighthouse had our new tires on the car, and we were back on the road! I can't express enough how grateful my wife and I are to Lighthouse for the courteous and fast service we received! They saved our little vacation to OBX, and, if you're ever in the Manteo area and need automotive service, I can't recommend Lighthouse enough! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Lighthouse Automotive exceeded my expectations! Staff was very helpful and explained everything so that I could understand. They even went above and beyond when they returned my car when I couldn't get to the shop to pick it up. Thank you so much!

Great experience. Everyone was very helpful, professional, and friendly. My car was repaired in a timely manner. Thank you Lighthouse Automotive.
