    I've been going to 5 Minute Car Wash in Modesto for over 20 years. I was nearby and decided to run my wife's car through for a quick wash. When it came out, the rear windshield wiper was hanging straight down and the weather stripping on the back gate was pulled loose. I asked for a manager. Duncan came out to take a look. We've owned this vehicle since new and keep it garaged and well-maintained. His response? "There's nothing I can do." He told me he'd fill out an incident report, but that it would go nowhere and that they weren't at fault. Then he said, "I just work here," as if that excused him from taking any responsibility. Duncan is not just an employee. He's the grandson of the man who founded 5 Minute Car Wash. His father helps run it too. This is a family business, and their response to damaging a loyal customer's car was to shrug it off and show zero accountability. I paid for the repairs out of pocket and I won't be coming back. If you value your vehicle and expect even basic customer service, take it somewhere else. They don't care about your car, and they certainly don't care about you.

    Took my car here to get the VIP wash, compared to other similar car washes in town its a little overpriced. still not bad for what they offer. My car was pretty dirty the guys who dried and cleaned the inside of my car really took their time and paid much attention to detail. I will be coming here again.

    Been coming here for a year and the last 3 times I've come they never clean my cup holders .it's annoying why donthey even bother saying the inckude a wipe down if they don't?

    Fresh car wash

    Honestly one of the best car washes I've had . Their customer service is immaculate. Their hard work does not go unnoticed not only did they take great care of the cars but also their customers. I will be bringing back all my car next time!

    Taken immediately after wash and detailing

    Sorry we went... As a thank you to a community volunteer who has given hundreds of hours of her time unselfishly to help students at our school, we had her take her Dodge pickup to Five Min Car Wash detail. We usually use a service on McHenry and always had great results. This time we decided to give Five Min a try as they have done many good washes for us for decades. We also wanted to have breakfast nearby.. It was a mistake, both the volunteer and I got different answers when we each called on the price and scheduling, and these were inconsistent with what we experienced when we arrived. When we dropped off the vehicle, the person behind the counter had didn't seem to understand the pricing or how to input the data to make the sale. She had to be told what the price was which she scribbled on a piece of paper. The funny thing was, she claimed to be the manager and didn't know the system. (Interesting combination, but this is Modesto after-all). We had been told $150 by one person, when we got there it was $175 (we were only asking for a carpet cleaning). Also, we were told that if we dropped the vehicle off the night before that it would be done "first thing" the next morning and that it only took about 5 hours. When we called around 3:30 to come and pick it up, the person who answered said it wasn't done and after spending several minutes on hold and listening to explanations/excuses saying that there was some information missing (mind you they had enough information to charge the card the night before and take in the vehicle) we were told it wouldn't be ready till 5 pm. We had an event we needed to be at by 4:00 and counted on Five Min having their part done before that as promised so we could go from one to the other. Then, when we picked it up the next day, the carpets looked great. The wash we didn't ask for was inconsistent at best. See pictures. The bed and running boards were partially done. The whole experience left us knowing that we will keep on with our McHenry merchant for detailing in the future.

    Today I was completely blown away by the level of service that I received from SpeeDee Oil Change…read more I was greeted by the nicest gentleman, Mike, to later find out that he is the owner of the location. He immediately made me feel super confident about the service that was going to be performed on my Audi Q7. His entire team was very attentive and gave me a feeling that every employee here had a sense of pride to be working with Mike and his team. They even were able to reset my annoying inspection required light that I thought only the dealership could reset. They completed my service and had me back on the road in a very timely manner. The value of coming here for a routine oil change compared to going to a dealership showed me that I have been throwing money away in the past. Not to mention the amount of time a dealership takes to make a simple oil change seem like an engine overhaul. This is my family's go to spot for a premium oil change with the confidence that Mike and his team will take care of our vehicles like it is one of their own!

    This location on Coffee Rd is known for its quality service and the friendliness of its staff…read more They have a large staff, so waiting is minimized. They support military veterans and give them a military discount. Being a veteran, Manager Mike G. gave me a great discount when they changed the oil and replaced the serpentine belt on my Pontiac Vibe. Several people waiting had driven from out of town for the great service at this location, 1343 Coffee Rd, Modesto, CA 95355 Phone 209 521 1929

They also let me know what services will be due soon, which I really appreciated since I hadn't brought this vehicle there in years. Everyone was friendly and efficient. My only small suggestion would be to keep the friendliness genuine and not feel forced -- but overall, it was a great experience. They even saved me about $40, which I'm very thankful for. I will definitely be back and plan to bring my other vehicle as well. I would recommend this place for any of the services they offer.

Like most customers, I trusted that a company specializing in oil changes would have experienced technicians who knew exactly what they were doing. Unfortunately, that was not my experience at all. After the service, I drove my truck home without noticing any issues. The next morning, I drove to work as usual, only to come out after my shift and find a large puddle of oil underneath my truck. This is a spotless, well-maintained vehicle that I take a lot of pride in, and it is extremely frustrating and disappointing that such a basic service was handled so carelessly. An oil change is one of the most standard maintenance procedures any automotive service shop performs, especially a business built around providing quick oil changes. I trusted that the job would be completed properly and professionally, but clearly that was not the case. What makes the situation even more concerning is the lack of experience and attention to detail shown by the staff working on vehicles. If customers are expecting knowledgeable and qualified technicians, they may want to think twice before bringing their vehicles here. To make matters worse, I contacted customer service immediately after discovering the issue. I was left on hold for over 20 minutes with no real answers or urgency shown toward resolving the problem. I was told someone would follow up with me and that they would "be waiting for me," but I am still waiting for any meaningful response or accountability. Overall, this experience was extremely disappointing. Customers should not have to worry about major problems occurring after something as simple as an oil change. I brought my truck in expecting professional service and left dealing with an unnecessary and avoidable issue that could have caused serious damage to my engine.
