Linda N.

Tried the Costco drive-thru car wash because it was cheap and convenient. It's very basic and does the bare minimum. While the price is hard to beat, my car didn't come out very clean. Good for a quick rinse if you're already there, but don't expect a thorough wash.

Service still the best out of three so cal locations I e tried, but the drier hasn't been working as well as the first few times I've been here. Leaves the windshield and other parts of my truck very wet. I realize I could set off myself, but I just need it clean enough to get back on the road and fine with a few drops, but last two trips were annoying enough to notice. Still great for $7.99, but hope it's just a calibration issue and can get back to "good enough" and "dry enough" wash and dries so I can just be in and out like before.

This is the second time within 2 days that the tire cleaner brushes not working . I told the guy collecting the receipts and he said that my tires weren't good aligned and the sensors don't catch them . On 2 different cars ? Imma take my third car tomorrow to see if he's right and check

The $7.99 Costco Carwash
Emmer H.

I've used the Costco Carwash a few times, and I've noticed a clear difference depending on the time of day. During the night, the wash is noticeably faster compared to the morning. Tonight's wash was rushed, my car came out still wet, with soap residue all over, and the blowers didn't dry my car properly. It seems like they might be adjusting the timing during rush hour to get more cars through quickly, which affects the overall quality. If you're looking for a thorough wash, it's probably best to go during non-peak hours when they aren't rushing to keep up with demand.

Dedicated entrance

As far as drive-through car washes go I think this one is great. I like that there are two pay terminals to help keep the line going, on my visit in May 2022 they even had employees out there who were taping down your back wiper if needed.

5 rows of dryers
Rena S.

Quick and reasonably priced. They have 5 rows of dryers that sufficiently dry your vehicle. Also includes tire shine. Sometimes the rinse doesn't completely get the tires and you're left with white stuff on the tires. 4 starts because there are no vacuums. Bring a towel to get the small areas that didn't get fully dry. For the price, it's a great value and does a very good wash.

Fast, friendly, convenient, and very affordable. Lines are always long but it goes fairly quickly.

It's great to see a Costco Car Wash at this location. This is an exterior wash only, but we'll worth the price. It does a very good job.

Totally unnecessary automated car wash. The only thing it's good for is creating a traffic jam on Imperial every day.

comp from Toyota they won't be giving cards anymore…read more Big penny car wash was amazing. Cleaned car perfectly. Will be making this my number one car wash. They were able to get off the tough spots of dirt. Staff was super friendly! Def recommend!!

I'm a regular here. We have their monthly "membership" for our cars. One being a Tesla. My first…read moretime, when we first got the car (it's now almost 3 years old) it was a bit tricky getting the car into neutral being a non electric car owner for 30 years. However, after that-No issues. Till today. I usually wear my seatbelt while going through (this is important to note) and wipe down my car. This time I didn't and didn't think anything. I was cleaning and the car kept going into Park. The older man at the entrance of the car wash was yelling at me to keep it in Neutral. I was telling him it was but that I think the machine is doing something g to put the car in Park. I got it heck into Neutral and he started it again. Same thing-Went not even a full tire rotation in the car wash and boom, Park. Now he throws down the water hose he had on his hand, slams on the emergency shut off and starts talking ish under his breath. I open my door and ask for someone (else) to help. Sorry sir, yo entiendo! Rude. I tell him again, I'm not doing anything. Another man comes (he's shorter and younger and always VERY nice when I'm here) and he tells me it's cause I opened the door. I said no. It did it before that and I wasn't going anything to the car. I said come inside with me. He said, don't worry. Then he said are you moving. I said, yes. I always do. Then he said your seatbelt! I said, what about it. He told me when you take it off and move, the car will do that. I said ohhhh. Thanks! They restarted and in fact, if you have your seatbelt on and move-No big deal. But take it off and-You can't move if your car will auto Park. That older man was plain ol rude and not cool. If I was a younger person, that would've made me freak out and possibly cry. Be better.
