My ultimate favorite place to get my car washed! I work at a construction office & my car get dirty & dusty quickly. I get my car washed often & at various places. I've never been disappointed by JBCW Gary Ave. Car comes out clean with very little soap residue & mostly dry (most places leave the car soapy & wet). When I get the premium $12 hot wax, I am often asked if my 3 yr old car is new plus my car smells great! Vacuums work great & love the cleaning nozzles used as others install 'crevice' nozzles (only), no other choice. Crevice nozzles are good but take a long time to clean flat surfaces. Also must thank young lady this morning guiding cars in as she seems to know that drivers are dependent on her! TY read more

****UPDATE**** The business responded with what appears to be a generic, copy-and-paste message (similar to responses left for other reviewers), asking me to reach out again. However, I had already attempted to resolve this directly and did not receive meaningful follow-up. The link provided only directs to their general website, not a specific contact or customer care representative to actually address the issue. The situation remains unresolved. Original review: I had a really concerning experience at Jet Brite and gave them plenty of time to make it right, but they didn't. On January 30th, I went through their car wash when the system malfunctioned and caused my car and three others to repeatedly collide. No employees stopped it until we were honking, and I had to go inside during a snowstorm to find someone. Staff seemed completely unaware of what had just happened. We filled out incident reports and were told someone would follow up. After multiple conversations with customer care and their operations director, they denied responsibility and blamed the first car in line for "getting off neutral too early." Regardless, their system should be designed to stop in a situation like that--not allow multiple vehicles to crash into each other. A manager even contacted me to request a repair estimate, which I sent, but then never responded. Follow-ups were ignored. Overall, very disappointing experience--not just the malfunction, but how it was handled afterward. I would not trust them with my vehicle. Including photos of the damage that night as well as what it looks like now after more paint chipping. read more

I don't deviate much from the car wash I go to since I have had horror stories from the past. However, a bird must have eaten the wrong stuff & my side window was splattered so badly, I could not wind down my window. I did the drive through with an undercarriage wash. Tipped the guy to do the driver's side mat as well. It's ok. My car didn't dry completely. I liked their free vacuums, easy & fun to use. It's good value for around $13 in total. No damage to my car. read more

WARNING: DO NOT FREQUENT JETBRITE ON GARY & ARMY TRAIL. they are a bunch of scammers and sneaks. My husband went for a car wash on 5/2/2024. Going through their tunnel, the machine CRACKED my husbands windshield on a basically brand new 2023 Toyota Highlander. My husband notified the car wash employees immediately. They completed an "incident report" (and refused to give my husband a copy). My husband asked how they were going to remedy the situation. He was told "They were going to follow up with corporate and let him know the resolution." We had to call these people incessantly for 2 straight weeks to get answers. The manager "Jeff" is useless and would always say "I'm waiting to hear back from corporate." And the GM Ramzi never had answers either. Today (5/15/2024), we go back over there to get our answers (because Jeff wasn't answering his phone or responding to our voicemail) and Jeffs not there. SHOCKING. Ramzi is there and says "Uh, I don't know. Let me call Jeff." Jeff tells us to file a claim with our insurance, despite him telling me directly that he was going to handle this situation. read more

Issue with corporate, not the location.. I noticed a charge come though my bank account today and realized I had just been changed less than 2 weeks ago. So I decided to check my bank account a little further. Come to find out Jet Brite has been double charging me $40 since April of 2024, 14 months of double payments. They tried to tell me I have 2 accounts, one for a license plate I just got in February of this year, same vehicle. I followed their instructions to update the plate info and if their system glitched, thats not my fault. Even though the website and app only show 1 vehicle. Now they have stopped responding even though I have shown them proof of the charges, my vehicle registration stating when the plate change happened, etc. I have all the proof that they are guilty of this. Check your accounts to see if this is happening to you. Their plans clearly state monthly yet I am being charged twice a month for 14 months. Their car washes also scratch the heck of black cars. Lawyer has been contacted. read more

Be cautious of this car wash. My windshield was cracked and the wash ripped off my wiper (which the wipers were obviously turned off). They refused to accept ANY responsibility even though their machine caused all of the damage. Tried reaching out to their parent company and no response, no help, no manager returned my calls. There are tons of car wash facilities but this one shows absolutely no care and takes ZERO responsibility for anything even if the damage was caused by them. read more

After looking at reviews, it looks like this has happened to alot of people and this company does not take responsibility for their machines damaging cars! Terrible company! Do not take your car here unless you don't care if your car gets damaged!!! Won't let me give 0 stars so I have to give them 1! read more

I was a member of their jet pass for a year. Renewal time came up they had large signs promoting $15 for the first three months. The computer only gave me an option to renew my $20 membership I accepted only to find the very same month and for months after I was being overcharged! With no notice!! Check your accounts is it worth it? Not for me bad business! read more

DO NOT hand any attendants your credit card. They have been charging my credit card monthly for the last year. I NEVER signed up for a monthly pass. I have reached out but based on all of the previous reviews here, I'm just going to get the standard reply of we are sorry, blah, blah, blah. I will never use this car wash again. If this is not corrected, I will be contacting the Better Business Bureau. Here is another review from just a few months ago. It appears that this is a common practice: Don't ever give these people your credit card. They will charge you monthly no matter what, you can never cancel. I have emailed and called repeatedly,they never answer, never respond and just keep charging. My husband even talked to a person on the phone and they are still charging!!! Unbelievably bad customer service DO BETTER Jet Brite! read more

Paid for the $15 wash so that it could get my cars undercarriage and tires. Car came out badly. Went inside and told the guy how dirty it still was and he agreed and then said he has brought it up to his manager that the wash doesn't work and needs to get fixed. Did not let me go through again or any refund. Very upset I just threw $15 down the drain. Had to go to a different wash ! read more

They never open on time. I get there at seven on my way to work, and they are always lagging behind. 12/11same exact thing. 7:15 not open. Screens for members not working properly. Thinking about cancelling my membership read more

Ridiculous, unjustified price increase of more than double in the last year. Feels a lot like price gouging. And I still had to manually wipe down my entire car afterwards. Thankfully, there are a lot of other car washes around so I can easily not go to this one again. read more

Jet Brite Car Wash - Car Wash Near Me - Carol Stream, Illinois

not a bad wash but had to go thru twice bugs, but not bad for cheap, to bad i didnt get a refund.

I got my car washed today & was surprised that there were water ? Spots or something after the wash and drying. I was vacuuming my car, which is free and very appreciated, when I noticed an employee. I used to get the $3.00 washes, then $5.00, but today I picked the $10.00, so that was why I thought it would be better. The employee or owner ( I should have asked his name) was very respectful & kind. Although spots can occur, he offered to give me a free wash. I accepted gratefully. He actually upgraded the wash. His courtesy & care will keep me as a loyal customer. Thank you. read more

7:10 in the morning, and again they are not open, I don't know why I buy this membership because I can only go in the morning before work and most of the time they are not open on time. read more

Stay Away! Terrible business at 1251 N Gary Ave Carol Stream Il ! my car sustained $1,700.00 in damages. I filled out a complaint at the car wash and contacted the corporate office 6 times; No response from the manager, Ramzi, at Jet Brite in Carol Stream Il. No response from the CEO, Gene Dinkens, of ZIPS car wash. No response from Kyle West in the claims department! Your car will get damaged and they do not care! read more

So I bought the light wash with extra services like the hot lava, paid total of $10.00, I only got the light wash NO EXTRA SERVICES! I never get a receipt and when I told them about it, they said they couldn't refund me cause I don't have a receipt. I'll never come to this location to wash my car! read more

I have a new car now, and I've continued to go to this car wash. Even with long lines, it moves along. How much you spend really changes the quality of the wash, but the highest quality wash still isn't too expensive. read more

I have very bad experience they change me every month today 11/13/23 I don't wash my car employee give me bad word .

About fell over when I pulled in and saw the $3 car wash jump to $5. That's a 40% increase. I'm sorry but wages are rising a putrid 1 to 3%. Will no longer visit. Sickening. read more

This is probably my favorite car wash in the area. The location is prime, the staff are nice and helpful, the prices are decent, but best of all they have the floor mat cleaner machines! I will say their vacuums aren't as good as some other places, but they still get the job done for the most part. Occasionally the vacuums are clogged because someone thought it would be a genius idea to suck up their kids legos instead of pick them up themselves, but that's not on the staff. read more

If you care about your car then avoid at all cost. Roof of my car got circular scratches after just one use. Like i expected they said they they were there already and that the manager will call you back. They want you to leave to avoid liability hoping you forget about it. I washed my car day before and they were not there.So if you do not want scratches on your car then avoid at all cost read more

Hands down the worst customer service I have ever experienced. The dryers caused damage to my car and Ramzy the coward of a manager didn't even have the balls to offer an apology. No responsibility or accountability taken. Disturbing service. I will never return and will tell all of my friends and family. read more

Car wash is great and washing the trucks really good I only have one problem with them not taking Apple Pay it would be a great option

This place is terrible!!! They scratched my car terribly and are telling me to pay for it on my own or contact my insurance! Rude staff, very unprofessional. These guys are scam artists DO NOT use Jet Brite they are scum and take advantage of people. read more

Great car wash! We're in town visiting and couldn't resist a $3 wash. We started off at the bug pre-wash station, which was a nice feature. The $3 is the base option - you can pay more for more wash features. We stuck with the $3 wash, and we thought it did a good job. The vacuums were great, nice and powerful, with plenty of space to take out mats, etc. All around, $3 very well spent. read more

A big fuck you to this car wash, I went on Friday the 3rd around 5pm & I received/paid for a $10 wash.. the brushes in this wash are entirely TOO powerful... I go to speedy bob's in Streamwood/Hanover park & I never had a problem. I went to this wash & my mirror cracked off from the inside because the brushes were too powerful. I made a incident report & 2 of the employees who were working were trying to fix my mirror but couldn't help because it would break off it they kept bothering it! I had to have my father in law, SCREW some screws into my mirror so it doesn't fall off. The manager "Jon" called me on Sunday while at work around 1/2pm & let me know they weren't going to do anything about my mirror cracking off, which you can see in the pics I attached that the mirror cracked off from inside, he was rude he didn't seem to care! Just insisted that he'd email me pics of my mirror. Saying that my mirror was messed up prior to coming in, when it was NOT cracked off at all! I will NEVER go to this wash EVER again... they didn't offer a free wash, my $10 back or anything. That's not the point either, it's the principle of the manager being caring. He was not compassionate at all. I hope they lose all business. Get some new damn brushes, they're way too aggressive for anyones car!!!! I will be harassing you guys until you fix my fucking mirror too!!! A coworker of mine went to this exact car wash & she had the same problem & they would not help her. Ridiculous & disgusting! Go out of business if you aren't going to hold responsibility for your brushes in the wash. Numerous reviews on here state that this car wash sucks & people have problems after leaving here. FUCK JET BRITE!! read more
