Jack is that old school mechanic everybody wishes they had. I've gone to him thinking it would $1,000+ fix to have him say that all I have to pay is 100 bucks for the labor and not pay for the part. Truly the best mechanic in Bend hands down. Also an incredibly knowledgeable car guy who will talk about everything from old 70s model Porsches to how to keep newer model land rovers running efficiently. Hats off to you Jack, truly one of a kind. read more

Beware!! Jack did a tuneup on our mint condition Astro van. Charged us $700, overpriced, but we paid and thanked him. A few days later we started the van and it had zero oil pressure. We immediately shut it off and saw a huge puddle of oil under the van. He had left the old oil filter gasket under the new one, which resulted in an oil blow out. Jack came to us and replaced the filter and oil which we graciously thanked him for. Since then our engine has had a horrible knocking noise which was determined to be rod knock by another mechanic. We discovered Jack had also overfilled our oil this time by 2 quarts. We towed it in to Jacks only for him to attempt to say it's fine, just leave. We refused, and he finally agreed to look it over. A day later he said he could fix it by "thickening the oil" (that just hides the noise) I told him it needs an honest repair, not a bandaid. He refused, so we're towing the van out and initiating a lawsuit. Jack can talk a nice talk, but when push comes to shove, he will stab you in the back. Watch out for this shop read more

Rapid Wrench - Our destroyed van...thanks Jack :( - Auto Repair Near Me - Bend, Oregon

This shop ruined by sisters van. The owner Jack is dishonest, doesn't take responsibility for his work, and as a result my sister lost her van and all of her summer plans. read more

Jack has helped me and numerous friends for many years. I take my cars to him every year for checkups or repairs and he is always fair and honest. I highly recommend Rapid Wrench. read more

I have had 2 different vehicles worked on by Jack. He did a GREAT JOB both times. I called around to get a couple different quotes but his prices beat the others. Thank you Jack for the work you did. I highly recommend this mechanic. read more

If i could do 0 stars, I would. I bought a van to travel in at 18 years old, and put my heart and soul into it. I got it running perfect and put crazy amounts of money and time into it. I was about to leave for my job in Colorado and wanted a full tune up before I left just to make sure everything is perfect. Jack charged me more than $700 which I knew was a little much, but I figured he must do great work and i'm willing to put in money to my van if it means it will be perfect. luckily, I stayed around town for another week because all of my oil fell out of the van onto the street at Drake Park. thankfully Jack came out to help me, unfortunately it was too late and my entire engine was damaged. suddenly my van started making an awful noise, everyone told me to stop driving it and get it towed back to Jack's shop, so I did. (for a better picture, I am an 18 year old girl, living in oregon by myself about to move into a van) Jack looked at the van for not even 5 minutes and then told me to drive away and I'll be fine, then told me he was going to charge me $1600 for new lifters because that was the issue. (lifters go out from no oil, rod knock happens from no oil.) I called my dad in California so upset, asking him what to do because it just doesn't make sense why my van is all of the sudden making these awful noises when i've been taking amazing care of it. He said to get it towed to another shop and see what they diagnose the problem as. They found with less than an hour of looking at my van that it is rod knock, there's metal in my oil, AND Jack charged me for a full lubricant as part of the full tune up and flat out didn't do it. He's a scam artist. It all goes back to went Jack messed up on my oil change. Jack refuses to take accountability and now I am stuck in bend homeless at 18. The new shop quoted me over $10k for a new engine, I tried to work things out with Jack nicely as I'm just terrified and want my van running. Jack is now ignoring me, hanging up when I call, and i'm on the street. thank you much jack. beware coming to this shop. he's dishonest and does crappy work. especially if you're a young girl, expect to be ripped off. read more

Jack is fair and honest, two words I don't normally associate with car mechanics or most service people in general. He has done timing belt and shocks and struts replacement as well as battery/electrical issue repair on our Honda Pilot and Toyota Camry. I highly recommend Jack! read more

Rapid Wrench is highly recommended. Jack is a professional and runs his business accordingly. My particular issue on this first visit was a suspension problem on my older SUV. It wasn't an easy fix and took some time but the vehicle is back to running true. Unless it's an emergency and he fits you in, you'll probably need to wait a few days or more for an appointment. Good mechanics tend to be busy. read more

If I could give him a zero I would. Scamming me to give the car to his kid what a scum. Telling me my car is a complete waste and junk and then when I asked for shit on it or my shit back he said he had it tore apart and couldn't let me tow it out. Truly put us in a terrible position very disappointed! read more

Jack is trustworthy, kind, fair priced and a man of his word. We weren't sure what was wrong with our 2014 Ford Explorer EcoBoost, so we brought it to him. He knew right away the issue was the timing chain just from listening to it. He got our family vehicle in as soon as possible and had everything swapped out and completed on time. This was a big, complicated task and he did a wonderful job getting our car fixed up. Unfortunately, the day after we got it back, a sensor that was replaced ended up being faulty. We spoke with Jack and he had us bring the car right back to replace the part again, honoring the 2 year promised warranty he backs his work with. We put our Explorer to the test with a trip to the Columbia Gorge and she passed with flying colors. Our vehicle is running better than ever and we are so thankful we found this man that actually knows what he is doing and is trustworthy with our investments! Thank you Jack, we will continue to bring our vehicles to you should we need any work done in the future! read more

Jack at Rapid wrench was awesome. Friendly, knowledgeable, timely, and well priced. I would recommend Rapid Wrench.

Quality old school service integrity and levelheaded reason. Appreciated. Not easy to find these days. Keep up the good work.

Jack even came in on Saturday to fix my car. I had to have it towed and he gave up his Saturday to fix it. I couldn't speak highter of him, he is a mechanic marvel. Thanks again Jack read more

To Owner ***Make sure you update your phone numbers, there are three between what's listed here, your site, and pictures.*** Other than that, the man helped me out with a phone call regarding pre-purchase inspections. Although he couldn't service my vehicle as it was a rare import, he gave me all sorts of advice on it, well knowing he wasn't getting a dime for taking the time with me. Clearly he cares about customers and cars. I'd recommend just based on that integrity alone. read more

Jack is my guy. I have taken four family automobiles to him for a wide range of ailments and he has performed perfectly, honestly and quickly. He does what he says he will do and I trust him. Jim Mazziotti read more

fire their employees fir bs reasons and overall just bad experience. had good working employee but fired them over some bs. manager is extremely rude read more

Shady as f**k. Just a crummy building, closed when it says open, obviously no business and Google maps makes it stupidly difficult to find.

We were driving all the way from Southern California to northern Idaho and are car starting over heating in bend! Jack was so amazing and even looked at our car after hours!! We can not thank him enough for helping us get on our way! We feel so blessed and would recommended him to anyone! Very quick, and upfront. Would recommend him to anyone in bend!! read more

Solid communication and quality service. Honesty is critical when you're in a bind. Hopefully not soon but next time I need a mechanic I'll be back. read more

Couldnt have asked or wanted better service. Went in today to have my check engine light looked at. The thermostat in my vehicle needed to be replaced. He did not hesitate to call with an explanation, estimate and time to complete. I was back on the road later early evening. Will definitely be going back for other vehicle related issues but hopefully not too much. read more

I am new to town, my power steering blew out. I called a few places, they weren't very excited to have me bring my car in. I called rapid wrench - super nice, told me to bring my car in and they would try to get to it. Well, it was done that day, he showed me all the parts he took out and explained exactly what he did. He is my mechanic now. I found my mechanic. Very excited about that. read more

What a great experience. Our AC went out just before our drive home, on a very hot day. Pine Tavern recommended we stop in at Rapid because Jack was a solid guy that won't take advantage of our situation. Jack had a full shop, and even know our need wasn't crucial, he fit us in and had us out in about an hour. Thank you! read more

Rapid Wrench exceeded my expectations!! A coworker in my office recommended Jack. And, then a second co-worker piped up and said his mother in law uses jack and she also likes him. So I went in with fairly high expectations. But then he exceeded them by arranging for a tow truck (and he did not mark up the tow bill. Most shops mark up tow bills 25%). The Repair was done in a couple days, and his price was very fair. I know his price was fair because what he repaired is a reoccurring problem I've had on my truck 4 prior times. I've used shops in Corvallis, Redmond, and a different Bend shop. Jacks charge was towards the bottom of the range that I've paid for this same repair. I am very happy. I will definitely return and I will recommend Rapid Wrench. read more

Very grateful to Jack for fixing our car at a more than reasonable price. He's honest, helpful, and direct. Very expedient with the repair process. You can talk to him for a few minutes and see he's not out to swindle people. We'll be back for oil changes and any repairs our cars need. read more

Jack really puts the Rapid into Rapid Wrench! I was traveling through town on a road trip when my truck began running rough and the check engine light came on. Every mechanic in town was booked for 2 weeks (including Rapid Wrench). I left my name and number in case he had a cancellation and he did! He called me back and I took my truck right in. He's a great guy and was able to diagnose, repair, and get me back on the road that same day! Excellent customer service combined with amazing honesty and quality of work. If only there were more Jack's and Rapid Wrenches in the world!! read more

I found Rapid Wrench on Yelp. I decided to call them based on the great reviews of other customers. I couldn't be more happy with Jack at Rapid Wrench. I've taken my car here two times and both times he got my car right in and fixed the problem super fast. I also love the system he uses to schedule appointments. User friendly and I always received a prompt response. I would give more than 5 stars if I could. Thank you Rapid Wrench you will be my mechanic for as long as m in Bend!! read more

After taking my 3.1 year old 23K mile Jeep to the local dealer for a coolant leak and quoted $1200 for a repair I tried Rapid Wrench. Jack took my call had me in the next day. He did a great job with the repair and charged me less than half what the dealer wanted. Jack was honest and sincere. Highly recommend this small business. read more

When one of us is 'out of town' and away from our familiar auto mechanic we can be a little vulnerable. In Bend, one choice is Jack at Rapid Wrench. Solid guy; will fix your car. You are going to pay for the work that needs to be done; however you won't be shelling it out for stuff that does not need to be done. And Jack knows how to ... That is my story and i'm sticking to it - you can bring your car to Jack and he will get you back on the road - fairly and squarely! read more

Jack was awesome! I thought it was my CV boot/joint that had spewed oil on my sister's driveway while I was visiting. I called a couple of recommended shops who weren't able to get me in for several days to 2 weeks. I looked online and saw the great reviews for Jack at Rapid Wrench, so called him. My lucky day as he had had a cancellation and was able to fit me in. It turned out that it was not my CV boot/joint but instead it was my rack and pinion steering and needed to be replaced. Jack was able to get it replaced and back to me by the end of the day and his fee was reasonable. I highly recommend Jack and will certainly use him again, should I have the need while visiting! PLUS, he's just a nice guy and he saved and showed me the parts so I could see exactly what he was talking about. AAAAA+++++ read more

Jack was fantastic. We were on vacation in Sunriver from California. Heard a thunk somewhere around Shasta and lost the AC. Called Jack and he said come in so he could look at it. I dropped our 15 year old Nissan van off with him and walked into town for a coffee. Less than an hour later, Jack called to say that we had lost a bolt and the crank off our AC unit. It would take two days to order and install a new one, but we didn't have that amount of time before we had to leave to go back home. Jack made sure our vehicle was going to be safe to drive home, and wrote up a great report we can take to our mechanic for the complete fix. Jack was professional, thorough, and charged a reasonable rate for the great work he does. Would definitely recommend him to anyone and would have trusted him to do the work on our car if we had the time to wait for the part to arrive. Thank you Jack! read more

My car was limping off the highway as I drove into Bend. I googled the closest garage and rapid wrench came up. I arrived on a busy Friday just before closing, not optimistic in any way shape or form. Jack dropped everything and took the whip in a test drive. Assets the wheel boot and told me he would come in on Saturday morning (his day off) and fix her up. Unreal. The guy's a stud and my ride is ship shape and rolling strong. Can't recommend this place enough. read more

Really good!! Lives up to it's name. Jack got me in the same morning that I called. By the time I dropped my car off other shops still hadn't called me back for a quote to get me in later in the week. His prices were super-fair. No problems with the work I had done, and he didn't try to sell other stuff I didn't need. Good location... just a little tricky finding the the place if coming from the North (pull in at the Permanent Make-Up strip area off Wall and follow the driveway down behind.) read more

DONT TAKE YOUR VEHICLE HERE!!! This man overcharged us, made up nonsense to squeeze a little more cash and then broke something and charged me $300 to fix it. He broke it why am I paying anything. $400 for an alternator, $100 for "bulging hoses" and $300 for a heater core he broke and shouldn't have been anywhere near. I'm crying. Don't let it happen to you. Go anywhere else. What's a nightmare read more

They are an absolutely amazing good hearted people everyone at any auto repair business. They're caring and kind words it will pass any automobile concerns. Him and his wife definitely care a great deal about people in the world for making sure your needs and concerns are met. Very kind and caring people.

Their kind words come from the heart and soul. I've also been there when people are too busy or do not want to bevsocial. They handle those customers with the upmost respect, professionalism while still pleasant and very quickly efficiently and capability to get them taken care of and on their way. So if you're looking for quality services either strictly professional to professional/social they will take good care of you. read more

Life saver. Had an emergency. Jack took the time to help me out. Highly recommend you go see Jack.

Jack at Rapid Wrench is BY FAR the best mechanic in Bend, OR!! He always makes time to service my car, even at the last minute and does an A-level job every time. He is a very genuine person and goes above and beyond to please his customers! Trust me, you wont be disappointed when choosing Jack to service your vehicle :) read more

admittedly, i'm not the first to write reviews, but Jack was first class, very straight forward, and it was easy to know that he obviously knew his stuff in handling the repairs, but that he explained everything in a way I understood it. I have an old Landcruiser with a newer drive train in it and he handled it all like a champ! Super stoked to find someone like this to work with! We just moved here and don't know anyone. I found him on Yelp. The town I moved from i knew everyone over the years and didn't get this kind of service. So yeah, you're in the best hands! read more

I was about an hour from Bend, when my car started giving me trouble. I called 3 different places, but Jack was the only one who was able to fit me into his schedule. Even though it was almost closing time, Jack took the time and got me back on the road. I still had 5 hours to go and I was ready to pay anything just to be on my way again. However, Jack was very fair with his pricing. I was expecting to pay a lot more. Thanks again! read more
