    I zipped through the line at Mister Car Wash to get my cleaned on the outside before heading to work. My car looks so much nicer and cleaner for the first time in months!

    VERY BAD EXPERIENCE WITH AN AGGRESSIVE EMPLOYED:As a customer, you always expect to be treated with respect and priority but that was not the case with this person. She not only tried to cut in front of me, but also got out of a car that wasn’t even hers (it belonged to a customer) and almost hit my vehicle just because she didn’t want to let me pass. When it was my turn, she, as an employee, thought she had priority. She yelled at me and even tried to get me to roll down my window so she could yell even louder in my face, acting aggressively and making hand gestures that seemed threatening. Be careful with this person she’s not friendly or professional. I don’t recommend trusting her with your car.

    Friendly, fast, easy, convenient! My tree leaks sap onto my car this time of year and it’s so helpful to be able to run through the wash!

    After car was vacuumed & washesd perfectly, the window/tire cleaner staff ruined it by using dirty towels on my windows. They appeared clean when I drove off (it was overcast) bit when the sun came out the windows were dirty and had a haze or film on inside and outside windows.
