    My car was sitting for a couple of years. They took their time and made it clean inside and out. For 6 dollars less, I got unlimited car washes for a month. Which I totally have used. Highly recommend!

    Great service and happy with the crew’s work, but you must fix the pot hole at the entrance. If not repaired soon, customers’s will experience bent tire rims or worse.

    WOW …. Have not been to this location for a while. It’s has gone down hill really bad. Took over 1 hour to just wash my vehicle, and the place was dead. Mister CarWash needs to see what’s going on since they took over.

    We returned from a 2000 mile roadtrip a few weeks ago and I took our car in for a full service car wash at Mr. Car Wash. The job was “acceptable”, but not what I’d consider great. My biggest complaint was the front was still covered with dead bugs. We never really went through a big “bug event” during the trip, it was just your average accumulation during that type of drive. I was in a bit of a rush that day and didn’t notice it until arriving home. A couple weeks later (Sat. Oct. 25), I returned for another full service wash, but forgot to mention the bugs still on the grill and hood after the previous visit. Once the car went through the car wash and got to the finishing area, I watched the final process from the customer waiting area outside. After the car appeared to be “completed”, I noticed an employee doing a final walk-around and he called two other employees over and pointed out areas on the front of the car (which I assumed to be bugs). They retrieved some sort of cleaning pads and went to work on the area. Upon finishing, guy who had inspected the car (who I assume is a Quality Control employee of some sort), called us over to take our car. He was EXTREMELY outgoing, polite, friendly, and held my door open for me as I entered the car. That’s about the time my wife arrived and he immediately RAN to the other side of the car to open the door for her! After we were inside, she commented on how polite he was. Needless to say we were VERY impressed with the treatment and personal attention, especially since we were there on a sunny, Saturday, at around 11:30 am and they were extremely busy! Once back home, I walked around the car and didn’t find so much as a gnat stuck to the front of the car. We were 100% satisfied with the service received. I didn’t notice the Q/C guy on our first visit (where the bugs were overlooked), but his presence was a huge plus this time around. Possibly it’s something new that was recently added? Maybe he’s just there on busy weekends? Maybe he simply missed us the first time? I don’t know, but he gets two thumbs up for this particular visit. I hope all future visits are as positive as this one as even though the business is quite a way from our residence, it would be worth the drive for similar service in the future and we would become regular customers.
