Quality Auto Repair and Service is What We’re About
Auto Care Plus has been a family run Auto Repair shop providing quality auto repairs since 1984. The original location, which is still rocking and rolling today, is located at 738 Daniel Webster Hwy in Merrimack, NH. It wasn’t until 2011 that the 2nd Auto Care Plus location came to be in Manchester, NH. In 2013 we took our premium repair services across state lines and set up shop in South Portland, ME.
Nothing is more beautiful than upstate NH, and that is where the next two Auto Care Plus locations came to life. 2014 is when our Wolfeboro location was acquired and then shortly after that in 2016 is when our Conway, NH location was established. ACP location number 4 & 5! A gorgeous drive from the Southern NH area, especially in the summer or fall. Popular vacation spots with the same expertise in automotive repair.
In 2017 we acquired the Hooksett location and rebranded as Euro Care Plus. A European specialist but ended up switching the name to Auto Care Plus to avoid any confusion. Our ASE master technicians are specialists in all car makes, foreign and domestic. Our 7th location, in Derry, NH was built from the ground up and we opened those doors in March of 2019. Derry is our largest building with 12 bays.
In 2022 John and Karen Manelas acquired Roberts Auto Service in Lebanon, NH. This extremely busy shop is keeping the Roberts Auto Service name but is still apart of the Auto Care Plus family and 8th location. Roberts Auto Service offers the same 5 year/50,000 mile warranty and has the same policies; free loaner vehicles, courtesy shuttle back to your home/work, and 6 month interest free financing.
Every Auto Care Plus location is equipped with at least one ASE certified master technician, if not more. We supply you, the customer, with a detailed digital inspection report and send it right to your phone. This digital inspection report shows the good, the bad, and ugly with your vehicle and is sent with 15+ photos of your vehicle. This just helps to ensure transparency and honesty when things under your hood go wrong. You get a visualization of exactly what our service advisors are telling you in person or over the phone. Please check out our Facebook and Instagram pages as we are actively posting content nearly every single day. Cool cars, interesting repairs, bizarre situations and more. For a special treat, visit us on Tik Tok as we occasionally post silly, humorous short videos to keep the laughs going and the vibes high across our
