Jennifer with Wade Bryant’s Auto Repair shared some thoughts with AAA
What is the most fulfilling part of your average day?
We love educating our customers on best practices to help keep their vehicles in great condition so they can continue to run a long time!
What does your shop specialize in?
General vehicle maintenance and repair. Whether you are stopping by for routine maintenance or a more complicated automotive repair, we can accommodate you. When you bring your car or truck in, we inspect it from bumper to bumper and run diagnostics so that we get to the root of your automotive issues.
What’s your dream car? Why?
That’s easy! A Jeep. Like many in the PNW, I like to explore off road. I trust a Jeep to keep me safe on my adventures.
What makes your shop stand out against the rest?
We train our automotive family in honesty, quality, trust and customer service. We continuously strive to be the best we can be and our mission is to be the go-to shop for our community in Bend.
What is your favorite aspect about working in the automotive industry?
Ryan has always been drawn to fixing things that are broken. Even as a small child, Ryan would take apart small household items – which eventually led to larger projects… including cars. As time went on Ryan had many opportunities to work on family and friends’ cars. Naturally curious and with a mind for motors and machines, a mechanic was born. Ryan’s passion for vehicle repair continues on to this day.
What does it mean to you to be a AAA approved repair shop?
To provide quality, honest service to a network of people who care about the safety and reliability of their vehicle.
