Mobile mechanic · Statesville, NC
Your driveway
is the shop.
We come to you.
Brakes, batteries, diagnostics, A/C, oil changes, and real repairs — done where your car is parked, by a trained mechanic, with a torque wrench and a written quote. No tow. No waiting room. No day off work.
What we fix
The repairs that actually come up, done in your driveway.
Most of what goes wrong with a car doesn't need a lift. It needs someone to show up with the right parts.
- Maintenance
Mobile Oil Change
Full synthetic, blend, or high-mileage oil and filter — done in your driveway.
- Maintenance
Tune-Up & Spark Plug Replacement
Spark plugs, ignition coils, filters, and throttle body cleaning to restore power and fuel economy.
- Brakes
Brake Pads & Rotors
Pad and rotor replacement with quality parts, done in your driveway with a torque wrench, not an impact gun.
- Starting & Electrical
Car Battery Replacement
We test, deliver, and install the right battery — then register it and check the charging system.
- Starting & Electrical
Jump Start & No-Start Diagnosis
Won't crank, won't start, or clicks? We figure out why on the spot instead of just jumping it.
- Diagnostics & Inspections
Check Engine Light Diagnostics
A real diagnosis with a professional scan tool, not just a code read from the parts store.
- Diagnostics & Inspections
Pre-Purchase Inspection
We inspect the used car wherever it's parked — before you buy it — and tell you what the seller didn't.
- Cooling & Climate
Overheating & Cooling System Repair
Radiators, hoses, thermostats, fans, and leaks — diagnosed and fixed before the head gasket goes.
- Cooling & Climate
A/C Recharge & Repair
Blowing warm? We find the leak, fix it, and recharge with the correct refrigerant — R-134a or R-1234yf.
- Fleet & Commercial
Fleet Maintenance & Repair
Scheduled maintenance and repairs for work trucks, vans, and small fleets — at your yard, on your schedule.
Something's wrong and you're not sure what
Start with the symptom.
Tell us what the car is doing. We'll tell you what it usually is, how urgent it is, and what it takes to fix.
- fix soon
Car Won't Start
A no-start is either a no-crank (nothing or a click when you turn the key) or a crank-no-start (it turns over but never fires).
- fix soon
Clicking Noise When Starting
Rapid clicking is a battery too weak to spin the starter.
- schedule it
Check Engine Light On
A steady check engine light means the computer logged a fault it wants looked at.
- stop driving
Grinding Noise When Braking
Grinding means the pad material is gone and metal is on metal.
- fix soon
Squealing Brakes
A high-pitched squeal when you brake is usually the wear indicator telling you the pads are almost done.
- stop driving
Brake Pedal Soft or Spongy
A soft, spongy, or sinking pedal means air or water in the fluid, or a leak somewhere in the hydraulic system.
- stop driving
Car Overheating
An engine in the red is minutes from a warped head or blown head gasket.
- fix soon
Coolant Leak
Green, orange, or pink puddles and a sweet smell mean coolant is escaping.

Shop vs. driveway
Everything a shop does, minus the part where you go to the shop.
Traditional shop
- Drive or tow the car in, even if it barely runs
- Wait in a lobby or arrange a ride and a second car
- Estimate by phone from a service writer you've never met
- Open 8 to 5, closed when you're free
- Upsells on the invoice that weren't on the quote
- Never see the old parts or the mechanic
Wrench Rescue
- We come to the car wherever it sits
- Work while you're at your desk or on the couch
- Quote in person before a bolt comes off
- Evenings and Saturdays at the same rate
- Only the work you approved, nothing added
- Old parts in a box, mechanic in the driveway
How it works
Four steps. One visit.
Text or call
Year, make, model, and what's happening. Photos and videos of noises help us bring the right parts.
Get a window
We confirm a half-day window and text when we're on the way. No-starts and safety issues jump the line.
We confirm and quote
We diagnose on site and give you a written price before anything comes apart. You approve; we work.
Back on the road
Job done, torque checked, road-tested, old parts and fluids hauled off. Pay when it's finished.
Who's showing up
A trained mechanic, not roadside assistance.
Wrench Rescue is run by Jared, a mechanic who got tired of watching people lose a day of work to a brake job. The truck carries a professional scan tool, a cooling system pressure tester, a smoke machine, A/C recovery equipment, jack stands, and torque wrenches — the same kit a good independent shop has, minus the lift.
We work on nearly everything: Toyota, Honda, Ford, Chevy, GMC, Ram, Jeep, Nissan, Hyundai, Kia, Subaru, and European brands with the correct approved fluids. Gas trucks, SUVs, and light-duty diesels for maintenance and common repairs.
