Such a rip off. First of all, they're quite expensive. Once my car was washed, the worker only took about 2 to 3 minutes to put on the finishing touches. I had to point out several areas that were covered in bug marks and smudges that he overlooked and needed to wipe off. He didn't even do a great job in the interior. He left my display screen covered in fingerprint marks. Horrible experience, such a waste of time and money. read more

I've been going to Pasadena Car Wash for years and their work never disappoints me. They're meticulous, friendly and professional. Recommend them wholeheartedly. read more

The reviews must be for the long waits and the high prices right? The prices are really high. You are looking at at least $40 without tax and tip. Otherwise I'm a long time customer and find the quality itself to be very good. Im not exactly sure about the value for price but they do a good job. read more

I've brought my Mini Cooper and my SUV with a bike rack here and I get excellent service for a good price. After going through the automated washing machine they hand dry and polish your car while you wait. Even when it feels busy it takes only 20-30 minutes and the waiting area is old but comfortable and spacious. This is my go-to car wash here in Pasadena. read more

$52 wash and interior clean, half as@ job at best. The seats, steering wheel and center console weren't even wiped down

I'm paying a good amount of money to get half assed work. The backseat was never vacuumed. I unbuckled the car seat and moved it so it was visible to them that it needed vacuuming. Crumbs and pet hair are still visibly there. Pay attention and don't just rush the job. read more

They damaged my car! I took my car to be washed this morning and had the worst experience from the general manager called Victor of this facility. They punched a hole in my gear console I noticed the hole when I got home and put my car on park. When I went back to report the damage 3 different people came to see my car and the last person was the general manager called Victor. He basically said it's my fault and they're not responsible for fixing it and he said they can't even clean that area and the only way it could have happened is if the gear got stuck. He even said if I had noticed the damage after it was washed while still at the facility . They're still not responsible. I asked him for his name and he said Victor I asked him for his last name he said Victor. He said he's called Victor Victor. He was clearly being a jerk. When I left I called the car wash and asked the lady who picked up the phone who the manager was she said Victor and when I asked for his last name she put me on hold and a man came on the phone which I assumed it was him. I just hung up the phone because I've had enough of his belligerent gaslighting behavior. I got the platinum wash and even tipped the guy that washed my car 10.00. Now it's going to cost me 580.00 to have this replaced. That car wash of 50.00 has now cost me an additional 580.00! I've been coming here for almost 15 years I cannot believe this was my experience. Stay stay away from here! read more

Over priced for the service they give. My windows look like they used a dirty paper towel. The guy at the gas station with the Windex bottle does a better job. They didn't even vacuum the back seat. Their Diamond wash is more like Fake Zirconia. Go elsewhere. read more

waited 10 min for the one and only person who is allowed to pump gas. waited another 20 min for him to come back and detach the pump. guys vacuuming kept looking at me in and outside of my car, but no one bothered to come and help cuz Mr white shirt is the only one allowed to touch the pump. sign clearly states "wait for attendant". even if I put the pump back, I needed the receipt to pay for gas. horrible service for a Monday. where did Mr white shirt disappear too? read more

Love this car wash, great waiting area, they do a great job with the hand wash, and very friendly!

I'm going to keep it short and to the point: if you're wanting a job well done, go elsewhere. I paid $22.99 for the standard wash and the result was unfortunate and disappointing. You get what you pay for. I came in explaining to the manager that my previous experience at another car wash was poor and that they missed a handful of details. The manager assured me that my experience at Pasadena Car Wash would be different and that they'd take care of me. Sadly, that did not happen. The details were worse than last. I had tree sap scattered throughout the exterior of my car which 95% of it *thankfully* came out. However smaller details were not touched i.e., corners of windows and review mirror had smudges, cup holder was quite literally filled with cleaning solution, my seats weren't fully vacuumed, inside of the door handle wasn't cleaned (photo attached). Just to name a few. But don't go by me, this was just my experience. read more

First time i brought my Maverick Truck here . Paid 51.99 for the platinum package .. long story short they didn't vacuum my truck , or wash my floor mats .. when i spoke to the manager and cash register "handler" (her name is ROSIE), about how its not vacuumed and that my floor mats weren't washed.. she then said its 20 dollars more.. for the highest tier package being the platinum you would think it's included. First and last time coming here . Customer service at the register does not CARE ONE BIT !!!go some where else .. i should have gone to JJ's in eagle rock . Thats what i get for exploring a new place. Customer service not there .. dont go there . read more

It was probably a busy day. But this was just lazy. i've been going to this car wash a few times before and for the most part they've done a good job so I'm going to give them a three today because this was just such a terrible job. The guy that wiped down my car did a good job but the guy who vacuumed didn't care. What's rough about this is that one sloppy job can just leave such a bad impact on the client. I get it there are some crevices that are hard to reach but the way that they left the backseat, A flat surface, was just so so plainly lazy and careless. read more

Just received a "car wash" from this place. I am honestly shocked that they charge $23.99 for such a careless job. I could've gone to a drive thru car wash and gotten a better quality exterior wash and complete the interior myself. I feel like I paid for someone to wipe my windows. Even my windows are not wiped well. I've attached photos with this review so that you're able to see how great my so-called car wash was. There were lots of areas that the person missed. How can someone call this a car wash? I almost want to think that they owe me the $30 (including tip) that I spent here! Never coming back here! I live down the street from this place but I'd rather drive to San Gabriel/Rosemead/Alhambra area to find a much better alternative. I only gave 2 stars for the nice cashier lady and the cookies/coffee. read more

Do yourself a favor and don't waste your time, energy and money at this establishment. They damaged the trimwork of my passenger-side door with deep scratches that looks like cracks. The manger has no customer service skills and lacks listening skills as well. I can blatantly see the deep scratches as soon as I opened the car door on the driver side and he's going to say they didn't do it. I highly suggest getting a mobile detailing car wash service and save yourself the headache. And the fees are grossly over priced. Your money would go a lot longer with a more reputable company. The picture does no justice to the damages. I can hinge my fingernail in the deep scratches. read more

Pasadena Car Wash - Scratches In the trim work of passenger side door by Pasadena car wash. The photo doesn't reflect the authentic damages appropriately. - Car Wash Near Me - Pasadena, California

I came here a couple of times. The first time was ok. The car was clean with a few leftover spots. The second time I went left a large paint smudge on my car's rims. I had to remove it with rubbing compound and some hard scrubbing. Thankfully there were no deep scratches. I'm not coming back to risk actual scratches from this place. If you're looking to get a quick wash and not worried about those risks, this place might be worth it since they have an early bird discount and is cheaper compared to the nearby competition. read more

After a couple of disappointing visits here, this place is turning it around. I am SUPER pleased with the car cleaning!

First (and now last) time here. No idea why it is so busy, as the "work" was horrible. Didn't vacuum passenger seat at all or between seats and console. Looks like they maybe held the vacuum a foot over the floor, as there was still plenty of dirt there. Dirt all over the top of the dash. Lady at counter obviously hates her job. And it took 40 minutes for the pleasure of having to go through the vacuum station again. All this got a mere $23.99 plus tip. Find another car wash. Do yourself a favor. read more

Went today to get a car wash and oil change only to come back to our car with the bumper detached on one side. Victor, the "manager" stated that it was our fault since we failed to inform them that the bumper was loose. Which was not the case. Instead of making it right, he became very rude and had no intention of helping the situation. Reading the reviews on here, seems like Victor needs a refresher on customer service. He seems more of a liability to this establishment. Thanks for nothing. read more

No matter how many times I ask for taking all what is clearly trash out of the car, they always, always, always leave something either on the door or the floor. I come to this place because is close to my home but it seems it's time to change. NEVER taken all the trash out and the car was not even really dirty inside read more

I paid $40 for a car wash. When I did a walk-through with a gentleman, I pointed out at least 10 different spots where my car was not clean and especially the front of the car that still had dirt and bugs. When I asked if he can go re-through and wash it, he questioned me and "said what for this?" I said yeah I'm paying for my car wash so I need my car washed. When I asked to speak to a manager, I spoke with Victor, who claimed to be the general manager. When I showed him the spots on my car even opened up my car and looked in the interior, he claimed that was the best they could do. He stated they don't actually clean everything they just wipe things down.The level of detail here is completely ridiculous, the customer experience is even worse. Might as well take your car through the drive-through at the Chevron gas station. I absolutely do not recommend this business. read more

Came to this car wash even thought the reviews weren't too great, after going to a different car wash and they wouldn't wash my car because of my roof box. I really needed a wash! However, I was left very pleasantly surprised. The prices were reasonable and they weren't too busy so the service was fast! My car so far seems visibly spotless! The area under the roof box wasn't dried but the roof box was washed. My cup holders were crumb free and they even cleaned the front of the door for the small compartment that I left open so they could clean the inside (I mention this because I've left it open other times elsewhere and it goes unpolished). My rubber mats were spotless not just vacuumed but really washed well! They have a very comfortable waiting lounge area indoors with extremely clean restrooms. As well, as a complimentary coffee and cookie station. You can pick up some small car accessories and essentials while you wait. Also, maybe a last minute greeting card or wrapping paper before you head off to your party. The only reason they didn't get 5 stars is due to the fact that they finished cleaning our car and didn't let us know. While we waited they had been calling out people's cars when done, so we waited a bit before asking if our car was ready because we hadn't seen anyone working on it for a a few minutes now. To which we were told it was, to just walk out and someone would give us the keys. Not sure if they let you know when your car is ready over the intercom depending on your package. But, I left this place happy! read more

This place provides consistently poor service. It's usually a 45 minute ordeal because there simply is not enough workers to cover the amount of cars pouring in. A don't mistake their busyness for popularity. They have a location that can't be beat. The prices are high to say the least and the quality is just abysmal. The towels they use are so dirty they leave streaks everywhere. I literally have had to re-clean my windows the times I have gone. I even tried going right when they open but same story. Willing to pay for a quality hand wash? Don't bother, I tried that as well; it was probably the worst wash there yet. Listen, I get it, "it's just right there on the corner," yes, you're right. Pasadena doesn't offer much in way of car washes. The only other one I can think of is on Walnut and Hill. Incidentally, they are wonderful there but the equipment is old and also generally slow. Want a proper wash head to 3-G Lux but, really just buy some good products and do it at home. read more

I'd say this is a pretty average car wash, some ups and some downs but in the end I don't think it's the best value car wash you can get. I Went here this morning for a car wash and I have to say I wasn't too impressed with the condition of the car after paying $30 for the service. The interior of my car was not too dirty, maybe just needed a quick vacuum job, so I cleared out my car completely so that they would have an easier time vacuuming but when I got back in the car it didn't look like it had been vacuumed at all. There was still the debris in my trunk and back seat floors. The exterior of the car was the more dirty part so I was happy to see it shine a bit again but there was a good amount of water marks throughout the exterior as well as tons of fibers from the cloths all over the car. In the end, it's all alright wash if you need a quick one but I think I'll continue to wash the car myself. read more

You drive up to the vacuum area where they will ask you what kind of wash you would like, then you get an invoice which you go pay inside. I have Been here a few times and get the hand wash and tire dressing. I think its $48 plus $5 for tire dressing ( I have an SUV), wash result vary depending on who washes your car some guys just quickly rush over it and others take their time and pay attention to detail. I always have the problem with my rims though, they're always half clean and I have to tell them. So, it's a hit and miss as to the outcome of the wash. I can say that their customer service is great and the cashiers are always courteous. They have an area inside where you can sit and wait and have some complimentary coffee and cookies. Overall, check your car before you leave incase it needs a touch up. read more

I took my car here for the first time a few days ago because it was really dirty and really needed a major wash on the exterior, and heavy vacuuming on the inside. I didn't have a whole lot of time. Otherwise, for sure, I would have liked to take my car to a more reasonably priced car wash place. I paid a little bit over $22 for a basic wash and vacuuming, which is more than I would usually like to pay. I noticed when I got home that my tire rims were still had specks of dirt and were not totally cleaned. I understand that my car was really dirty. But still. When I pay a little over $22, I expect a more through job, even when it comes down to the tire rims. I have to admit, though, that the car wash guys did a really good job vacuuming and cleaning the inside of my car, which had a lot of coffee stains, spills, and dirt that had accumulated. So I was impressed with how my car's interior was cleaned! The waiting area inside has some really comfy couches with your typical store of greeting cards, etc. So on even really hot days, it helps to be able to sit inside and beat the sweltering heat when you are waiting for your car. There are also complimentary coffee and snacks (like pretzels and Danish cookies) near the cashier area. The funny thing, though, is after I went up to the cashier to pay for my car wash before sitting down in the waiting area, the cashier did not even point out the complimentary coffee and snack area. I suppose it should have been really obvious for me to see when I was walking around the store. But it would have been nice customer service on her part to point out these complimentary perks right after I paid for my car wash. She just rang me up and didn't say anything. Then I only found out about the complimentary coffee and snacks after another customer pointed them out to me. I would probably think twice before coming back. Overall, the car wash guys are pretty nice and friendly. But I felt like my car's exterior could have been more throughly cleaned, considering that the price I paid was not that cheap. Perhaps, though, because I brought my car in the late afternoon instead of the early morning, they could only do so much to wash and clean my car when the place was already packed with cars. So perhaps in general, it's just better to take your car in the early morning right when they open so they can do a better job with your car, before throngs of other customers come in. Even so, I will look around for a cheaper and more reasonably priced car wash place for the future. read more
