The Mystery Machine broke down, so now Fred and the rest of the Mystery Inc. crew don’t have a way to get around in Fortnite. Luckily, you can help them repair their sweet ride by completing Fred’s found quest.
In this mission, you must track down various missing parts of the Mystery Machine. It’s one of the tougher tasks you’ll encounter, so here’s how to complete Fred’s found quest in Fortnite.

How to help Fred in Fortnite
To complete Fred’s found quest, you need to collect the missing tires for the Mystery Machine and salvage engine parts by searching junk piles. All the parts you need can be found fairly close to where Fred is hanging out, which is on a bridge slightly east of Ranger’s Rest. In total, there are five missing pieces you need to find and return to Fred.
This found quest doesn’t track your progress across matches, so getting it done quickly is key. If you get killed in the middle of it, you have to start over again in the next round. Try to plan ahead and grab some solid loot that will help keep you alive before you start tackling this one.
Collect the missing tires of the Mystery Machine in Fortnite
Your first task is to find two missing tires for the Mystery Machine. Start at the Mystery Machine where Fred is standing, then head west down the road that leads over to Ranger’s Rest.
As you walk down the road, look slightly right to find the first tire sitting near the edge of it. Approach it and select the button that appears next to the word “Collect” to acquire it. Follow the road a bit further down, then look left to find the second tire near the curve close to the entrance of Ranger’s Rest.
Salvage engine parts by searching junk piles in Fortnite
Your next mission is to find and salvage three engine parts from junk piles. All three junk piles are located over at Ranger’s Rest, so start by heading down the road that leads over to this POI. It’s just a short walk away from where Fred is, and you should already be in the right area if you just finished grabbing the tires.
At the bottom of the road, make a sharp right to find the first junk pile near a barricade. Approach this pile and press the button that pops up next to the phrase “Search for engine parts” when you’re right next to it.
Look slightly left of where you’re standing to find the second junk pile just a few feet away. Once you’ve got this one, make a sharp left and start heading toward the water. Look for the white diamond icon along the way to find the third junk pile near another barricade.
Deliver the items to Fred in Fortnite
With the three engine parts and two tires gathered, head back up the road to meet up with Fred. Interact with him to deliver all the items you obtained. As soon as you do, the Mystery Machine will be fixed, and Fred’s found quest will be complete.
The rest of the gang has some tricky missions for you to tackle, too. Next, you might work on Daphne’s found quest or Velma’s found quest. If you’re looking to experience more of what Fortnitemares has to offer, consider finding and beating the Mother of Thorns Doja Cat or becoming Ghostface next.
