We drive a 2004 F150 with about 215k miles on it and we live in Southern California. We were…read morevisiting family in Howe, IN a few thousand miles ago when the check engine light started flashing. Thanks to a family member, there was a code reader nearby and we were able to self diagnose "cylinder 5 misfire". We knew we were past due for spark plugs, so this seemed to be the most likely fix. Anybody familiar with the 5.4l Triton V8 knows that this is not a job for a novice and you can expect broken spark plugs stuck in the cylinders from the slightest misstep. As we were on vacation, we had neither the tools not the 'give a damn' for the job. Yelp reviews are awesome but not super common for local businesses in small town USA. My sister in law Kat recommended The Bent Wrench as they had been recommended to her for repairs on her 2005 F150. My husband called to ask to have the spark plugs replaced and was told that The Bent Wrench was quite thoroughly booked, but, if we dropped the truck off they would squeeze us in as soon as possible! They charged a very reasonable labor rate and were all quite friendly people. We dropped the truck off around 1pm that day and were able to pick it up before 5pm the next day. We drove it 35-40 miles that evening and everything seemed to be 100%. Of course, Murphy's law applies double to road trips! The next morning, we were set to leave for the next leg of our trip. About 10 miles out from Kat's house, the engine light starts flashing again. The code was once again "cylinder 5 misfire"! We turned around and drove directly to The Bent Wrench and discussed the problem. They then replaced the coil on cylinder #5 and we were once again happily on our way! Maybe the coil was the original problem but that seems unlikely since it ran so well when we picked it up. It's pretty common for the coils to be fine before you mess with them and then not fine soon after you put them back. Either way, when we first called, we asked for new spark plugs, not the diagnosis and repair of an unknown issue. We made it home, on schedule, with no additional problems and then got the biggest surprise! The Bent Wrench called to ask if we'd made it home without any additional issues! We are happy we chose them and absolutely satisfied with the result!

I started out using Performance Unlimited several years ago when other marine mechanics could not…read morefigure out what was wrong with my Mercury 40hp outboard. It was a 1997 outboard and the guys (Dan & Heath) figured out the problems and got me back on the water. Well age finally caught up with my motor and parts are becoming almost impossible to find and after a long conversation with Dan it was decided to replace the outboard with a new one. Dan found a new 50hp Mercury and him and Heath replaced my old outboard with the new one. After the new motor arrived at the shop, they had me out the door and ready to hit the water in 2 days. Once on the water the new outboard performed as expected and the service and professionalism that the entire staff from Performance Unlimited showed from the owner to the office staff to the technicians was above and beyond. I will keep using this company for my marine needs and I will highly recommend them 100%. Great service and pricing.

A year and a half later he sent us a $7,100 bill and when we got our boat back it had a damaged engine. He said that he would stand behind the $7,100 work if the boat didn't run, which it didn't. He came and picked up the boat and 1 month later he said it was winterized and fixed. However, when we went to pick it up the second time it was in pieces all over his business. The engine was damaged while in his possession and we were given unauthorized charges. We had to pay another professional $9,000 to fix the engine damage that Jim had done while the boat was in his possession doing a test drive. We paid Jim, but left with our boat not put back together or running.

They charged me $30.00 and told me I would get that reimbursed if I had them do the work. I informed them that I worked at a Napa store, and would purchase my own parts and have the work done by a local mechanic, but would bring it back for the alignment. They told me that I would not get my $30 back if I didn't have them do the work. So, I took my car to one of the local mechanics, working at a Napa store, we know all of the mechanics in the area, and after inspection, he informed me that there was nothing wrong with my control arms, or even the bushing, which is usually what goes bad on the control arms. These people just saw a woman by herself, and wanted to upsell me for a very expensive job that I didn't need. Charged me $30, and didn't do what I asked them to do. I will never recommend these people, especially if you are a woman coming in alone!!

Had an appointment for Dec 19th for new tire install and lube for my classic 89 Trans Am. The tire supplier I used sent the wrong tires to the shop which created a delay. That's when Chris jumped into action to get me replacement tires asap since no one in town had what we needed. After new tires installed promptly and lube work completed we attempted to drive off only to have the classic die out in the street. Chris and his staff jumped into action to push the car out of the street and back into the shop. Within 5 minutes diagnosed that the fuel pump relay is bad and was able to get new replacement parts and have us on the road quickly. So not only did they come thru once.... but twice they went above and beyond to Get the old classic on the road. Highly recommend the great friendly staff and very knowledgeable talent to work on your newer car or classic like mine.
