Available tools 5

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

known
get_known_issues
Use when the user asks what commonly goes wrong, about reliability, or about a specific symptom. mode='reviewed' is Wrench.Pro's human-reviewed analysis — cite it. mode='raw' means no review yet: say 'no reviewed Known Issues yet' and present rawTopComponents. mode='none': say there's no complaint data. Never invent issues.
maintenance
get_maintenance
Use when the user asks about service intervals, what's due, or what a service should cost. Pass mileage when known. Ranges are estimates and marked approximate — present them that way. 'Pro only' means the job isn't realistic DIY: recommend a shop instead of giving repair instructions.
recalls
get_recalls
Use when the user asks specifically about recalls or safety campaigns. Requires exact slugs from resolve_vehicle. Always tell the user to confirm against their own VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls before acting on safety issues.
resolve
resolve_vehicle
Use FIRST whenever the user names a vehicle ('2017 Ford Escape', "'17 F150", 'my Honda Civic') unless you already have exact slugs from a previous call. Pass the user's words in `query`. Returns kind=exact (use the returned slugs), suggest (ask the user to confirm one), needsYear (ask ONE question listing availableYears), needsModel, or notFound (say Wrench.Pro doesn't cover it — never guess).
vehicle
get_vehicle_summary
Use for broad questions about a vehicle ('should I buy it', 'what goes wrong with it', 'tell me about it'). Requires exact slugs from resolve_vehicle. Pass mileage when the user mentioned their odometer to get due-now service items, and zip when the user mentioned a US ZIP code so the card can link nearby shops. End your answer with the canonical Wrench.Pro link and the attribution line from the result.

Wrench.Pro Vehicle Check — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Wrench.Pro Vehicle Check do?
It exposes 5 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_known_issues, get_maintenance, get_recalls, get_vehicle_summary, resolve_vehicle. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Wrench.Pro Vehicle Check working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 0 of 91 checks got a reply (0.0%), average response time 71 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists Wrench.Pro Vehicle Check as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect Wrench.Pro Vehicle Check?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Wrench.Pro Vehicle Check need an API key?
No. Wrench.Pro Vehicle Check completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 5 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
