Wrench: The Future of Car Care

Research shows that on average, we make 35,000 decisions in any given day. Convenience is arguably one of the most underestimated, yet most powerful forces that drive each of these decisions that we make. We have kitchens, but choose to order take out and sit through drive thru's. We own coffee pots but make morning trips to Starbucks. Movie theaters are a staple in most cities, yet we choose to sit at home and watch Netflix and purchase movies on Amazon Prime. Why grocery shop after a long day at work when you can simply get your groceries delivered right to your house? In the last decade, the world has seen an astronomical change in the ways that businesses are providing goods and services to consumers, and the thing that they all share is convenience. Convenience — that is, more efficient and easier ways of doing personal tasks — has emerged as perhaps the most compelling force shaping our individual lives and our economies.

Wrench has embraced this culture of convenience by reinventing the way consumers think of car care. The days of dropping your car off at the shop and sitting in the waiting room for hours are gone. Routine car maintenance shouldn’t be dreadful because you’re scared of the process. Getting your oil changed shouldn’t be put off because you don’t have the time in your day to wait for it to be completed. Going to get that pesky engine light checked out shouldn’t cause anguish because you’re nervous of dishonest prices and a long list of things that you’re pressured into paying for. Consumers should not be turned off by addressing the needs of their car simply because they don't have sufficient knowledge on their own. Wrench wants car care to be feasible and attainable for everyone. And in a world where convenience is a top decision factor, now car care can be done at the push of a button, eliminating the hassle, fear and time waste typically associated with the traditional auto repair and maintenance process.

Let’s break the process down. You get ready for the day, and head out to the car to drive to work. On the drive to work you realize that your engine light has come on. Unfortunately for you, you have a day packed full of meetings, have to take the kids to soccer practice after, and then somehow find time to cook dinner and catch up on laundry. You know if you keep putting it off, the situation will only get worse. But you simply cannot find the time to take your car into the shop, not knowing how long it will take. Will you have to spend money on a rental to drive to work the next day? There’s too much unknown and you’re too busy to address the issue this week… maybe next week you’ll get to it. This is a scenario we are all familiar with to some extent. But the story changes now! Once you get to work, you log into the Wrench app. On the app you can quickly log in your car details, choose the issue you want to be addressed, and schedule a service appointment for that same day. Wrench will come right to your office and get it taken care of without you even having to leave! Whether you’re a hard working business professional, a busy mother, a college student who can’t find time away from the library, or you simply just despise going to the shop, Wrench is for YOU.

Life happens, and when it does we want to be there to help. We want to change the stigma on car care and show you that you don’t have to sacrifice quality for convenience. Addressing the needs of your car doesn’t have to be scary! With Wrench, you are always promised transparency, honesty, quality, and affordability. Because Wrench is, like we said, for everyone-- and that means you! How does Wrench fit into your lifestyle? The culture of convenience is changing and  the future of car care is here!
