Colorado Springs Auto Repair

Tommy is a longtime Subaru owner and he has lived in Colorado Springs for more than 30 years. Because he’s been pretty loyal to that vehicle brand throughout his life, he used to trust the local dealership and auto repair/service chains. However, Tommy recently decided to declare his independence and bring his Outback to LightHouse Automotive—a family-owned and operated Colorado Springs business. He wanted a second opinion on his suspension problems because the “other guys” quoted him a very high repair estimate. “These guys are the best I have experienced in a LONG time.” Tommy writes in his Google reviews. “I will not be using the brand name groups ever again. Rylan [Blair, Owner of LightHouse Automotive] saved me hundreds, possibly more, by being honest and showing me why I did not need the work and parts another group flat-out lied ... read more

Dana wasn't happy. She had some work done at a different auto repair shop in Colorado Springs. Unfortunately, they seemed to do more damage than good. She was losing faith in local auto mechanics, but then she decided to give LightHouse Automotive a shot. Dana was glad she did. "I had initially taken my car to another shop which I paid a little over $900 to fix. It hadn't run right since," Dana says in her review on Google. "I had seen the reviews for LightHouse Automotive and decided to take a chance. I don't regret it one bit!" It's too bad that it had to come to this, but we see it all the time. Someone else does a poor repair job that we have to fix or completely redo. In Dana's case, it was totally messed up, so we essentially had to start over from scratch to perform the repair that the other shop had attempted—and failed—to complet ... read more
