Time is money.
I needed my brakes done not too long ago, and what a hassle. I appreciate and trust my mechanic but I waited a week for an appointment, then had to drop off the car the night before. Which meant dragging the kids out and swapping out car seats and driving across town with both cars so I had a ride home. I also had to take time off work the following day and then go through that whole circus all over again by six o’clock or not have a car the next day.
They come to you.
Wrench sends trustworthy ASE certified mechanics who are vetted with at least five years of experience working in shops with proven track records for customer service and quality work. All Mechanics also must pass a thorough background check.
Wrench comes to your home, office or parking garage. You choose a time based on mechanic availability. Wrench has said it can handle most of the repair and maintenance work that can be done outside a shop.
Keeping it simple.
You load your car details into the app or website and get a quote. If you want you can then set up a diagnostic appointment based on your schedule. After the diagnostic visit, you have the option to schedule another appointment to complete the repair. Upfront quotes for diagnostics and services give you the ability to make the right decision for your needs. You do have to give credit card information which is preauthorized for your service, later this is how you pay your bill.
Transparency creates trust.
Wrench advertises fixed, transparent pricing and a Wrench-backed warranty on its work. Warranty length differs by service (oil changes are covered for a shorter period than repairs), so read the current terms before you book. With the convenience, upfront quotes and warranty, Wrench is a good option to compare against your local shop, especially when you cannot afford to lose a day of driving.
