still left dirt on the back, can even see a handprint
Zachary W.

Horrible car wash, doesn't wash off any dirt at all, had to wipe off my car by myself after the wash

OEM Subaru filter
Edward E.

I was in need of an oil change bad. I came to this place. I had my oil, filter, and crush ring already. I gave them the parts n they said they will use them. I jacked up my car of recent only to find a really old filter that was not the one I gave them. I brought in Subaru oil, Subaru oil filter(blue filter), and Subaru crush ring. I don't know if these "technicians" took my parts (not worth much), forgot, or were just lazy. Never coming here again. Sucks that you try to give local businesses/people a chance, n this is the work they do. Beware...of them "CHAFAHHHing" your vehicle or Mickey mousing your parts . I would not trust these people at all.

Windows had just been completed.

Be prepared for scratches. I went in on August 21st 2020. I never drove the car in myself. Across the parking lot having my windows tinted at a shop I normally go to. The owner of the window tinting shop got in the car to personally drive it over to the car wash. Once he stepped inside the car I took some photos of it as the windows were just completed. When it came out of the car wash and was finished the gentleman waved at me to call me over. Upon inspection I found two scratches on the fender and one on the door pillar. Car Wash manager said it was not from them. He told me it was Prior damage. I told him that it was just driven over from the window tinting shop that they work with and there are no scratches on it. He still said it was not from them so I showed him the photos. Zoomed in on photos and sigh no scratches. He went as far as showing me Sam poor quality surveillance video where you could hardly make out the car to show me there were no scratches. Extremely unprofessional on their part especially when I had photos taken 10 minutes prior with no scratches on it. I will include before and after photos.

Anybody who read this review please don't don't don't come to this place, I did oil change in this place on Jan 23 2019, when I go back to home checking the oil, the color is very dark, see attached pictures, it is more darker in the moring, I went back to this place talk to the guy and show him, he said it is normal, he show me the new oil compare with my oil, it is big difference, but he still reject to change new oil for me, I told him will not come back he doesn't care, I think he did not change oil for me, and maybe did not replace filter either.

The dings left on the windshield and sunroof.  Thanks for the make up, guys!

See all

Mission Hand Car Wash

(1.3k reviews)

I've been a monthly member here for at least 5 years, and I honestly felt like it's finally time to…read moreleave a review. The biggest thing I've noticed recently is the change in the team's attitude. Before, whenever I asked for a small favor or wanted them to pay attention to something, I sometimes felt like I was being a pain. Lately though, it's been the complete opposite. The staff are much friendlier, easy to communicate with, and most of them speak great English. They actually listen to what you're asking for and make the effort to get it done. The wash might take a few extra minutes now, but I'd much rather have that if it means they're taking their time and paying attention to the details. As someone who's been coming here for years, I finally feel like my voice is heard and that they genuinely appreciate their monthly members. That kind of customer service is hard to find these days. If you live anywhere in the San Gabriel Valley, I'd definitely recommend checking this place out. I've seen the improvement firsthand, and I hope they keep it up. Keep up the great work, guys!

No more familiar faces. Increased prices and poor and slow service…read more New ownership took over called Marvel car wash and good O mission car wash is gone. Along with the character and charm it once had. Even the fish in the lobby packed their bags. I've been coming here since a child over 30 years and don't feel the welcome anymore. Best of luck!

This review is long overdue…read more Although this car wash place is a bit far for me, but since it opens early. I usually come when I am in a hurry. The employees here are friendly and the wash provide a great value. Although it is a self serve wash, there was always an employee there at the entrance to greet you and help me to process the payment. It makes the pay and car wash process more enjoyable.

A staff member named Lupe and, especially, the supervisor/manager behaved aggressively toward me. What happened was terrifying and completely unacceptable. !!! My elbow accidentally touched my car horn. An employee named Lupe immediately began yelling at me, demanding to know why I was honking, and used profanity toward me. I then proceeded toward the car wash, but Lupe blocked my path with a traffic cone. A supervisor came over and, instead of de-escalating the situation, told me that "Lupe does not yell at someone without a reason." At that point, I rolled up my car window. The supervisor then struck/banged on my closed car window with his fist. I was then told to leave the car wash immediately. The supervisor told me that if I did not leave the property, he would call the police. Because of the way I was treated, the Horrible car washterrifying placeaggressive conduct toward my vehicle, and my overall dissatisfaction with the service, I requested that my membership be canceled and I left the property. I had been a customer of this car wash for approximately six years. After this incident, I no longer felt comfortable continuing my membership and requested a refund of the disputed membership charges.

You can tell he takes pride in what he does. I also noticed he protects his hearing by wearing ear plugs, which shows he works safely and professionally. It really stood out because some other staff looked bored or annoyed, but Ethan was the complete opposite. He was alert, friendly, and made the whole experience more pleasant. Frank wasn't there today, but he also always offers service with a smile whenever I see him. Great customer service from both of them. Highly recommended.

I understand that drive-through car washes aren't typically the best option, but this was by far the worst experience I've had. You know there's a problem when the attendant tells you, "You can come through again if it's not clean enough." My car wasn't anywhere near filthy to begin with just the usual road dust and some sprinkler water spots from the night before that I wanted to get off. I went with the premium wash, not once, but twice, and somehow still ended up having to wash the car by hand afterward. The spots, dust, and grime were all still there. Honestly, it looked like someone simply sprayed the car with a hose and called it a day. Don't waste your money paying extra for the premium wash. I have a hard time believing the lower tiers would produce any different results. The only difference seems to be how much money you're throwing away. I would highly recommend avoiding this car wash. The results were extremely disappointing, and the entire experience was very unsatisfactory.

While I understand this wasn't a…read morefull detailing, my car was already in relatively clean condition, having been washed just a few weeks prior by my dealership--which, unfortunately, did a far better job than what I received here. The exterior wash was very disappointing. The car looked barely cleaned, and the roof in particular was still visibly dirty, as if it hadn't been washed at all. Given that I paid extra for the seat shampooing in addition to the VIP service, I expected at least a basic level of thoroughness, which simply wasn't delivered. I'm especially frustrated because I chose to support a local business, but the experience felt unprofessional and ultimately not worth the time or money. I even spoke with a manager, who was courteous and respectful, and worked to address the situation--which I did appreciate. However, it's frustrating to have to go through this after already paying for the service. To make matters worse, after returning home, I noticed that the front mount of my license plate had been damaged. While I understand that accidents can happen, this only added to my overall disappointment given the rest of the experience. Overall, I feel like I could have done a better job myself. Unfortunately, this experience has led me to decide that I won't be returning.
