Who we are
About J & T Automotive
J & T Automotive is a family-run shop in Swansboro owned by Blair, with Shari holding down the office and keeping customers informed every step of the way. Reviewers consistently call out one thing above everything else: honesty — in the diagnosis, in the price, and in the service. Whether it's a state inspection, an oil change, or something more involved like working through a warranty claim, the team handles it without the runaround. Prices stay reasonable, the work gets done right, and you leave knowing exactly what happened to your vehicle. If you're new to the area or just tired of shops that treat you like a number, give us a call — we think you'll feel the difference.
