So easy to get into right off the thunderbird exit. I am not a fan personally of just the long skinny vacuums - I wish they would have both options. It hurts my wrists to use the long ones. First time thru I felt they bug prep wasn't sprayed well- but Second time thru they did a better job. Everyone was very friendly and polite that I encountered. read more

Loved everything about this car wash! I am very picky when it comes to cleaning, especially my vehicle. Pulled in and got the Grand Champion wash. It also includes a car interior kit. After your wash you can go to the free vacuums, they also have free clean towels, and compressed air to clean out all the nooks as well as water in your mirrors or windows! Loved that! The staff was very helpful. What you get for the price is worth it! Plus I get to make sure I leave extremely happy. read more

The equipment, i.e. Vacuum, air compressor, drying rags, all worked perfectly. I was told base wash service was $10 but they charged me $14. Also the shaded area tent coverage is minimal with almost no shade at all when using equipment. read more

I went in to get the dirt off my car and the service I received was beyond expectations. The attendant Melanie was very polite, informative and very professional. She enlightened me not only on how to make my dull paint shine like new, but also what to use to get the grim off my rims and provided me with the material. Based off Melanie customer service I'm a raceway customer for life now! read more

I drove to Phoenix from Colorado to escape the Arctic Blast in January 2024. Needless to say, my car was dirty so I randomly chose Raceway for an exterior wash. The young man at the point-of-sale was very knowledgeable and helped me decide what wash service to choose. I chose the $15 wash and polish. It was perfect! I especially liked the track that moves your car along the wash bay because there's no rail to scratch my wheels as I have low-profile tires. The car came out looking gleaming clean and stayed clean for the rest of the week in Phoenix. A clean car just makes you feel better! Thanks Raceway! read more

I had a wonderful experience yesterday with Mary! She was so kind and helpful, and really made sure I got a clean car :) thank you Mary!

I visited your carwash a couple of days ago. Your attendant, named Melonie, greeted me and explained the car wash choices. I am 77 years old and handicapped. She also offered to clean the inside of my car at no charge. She was gracious and lovely. She made my day. May God bless her. Diana M. read more

The service I received from the crew at Raceway was awesome. David tried his best to sell me a membership, but I wasn't ready yet. The way that he explained everything and the quality of the wash was so good that I will come back and get that membership. He was very nice not pushy and explain so well. read more

I've tried different car washes around the valley and I really like Raceway. They get the pollen, dog drool, and bug spots off of my car. The buy one get one free $20 Champion wash is great but you only have 2 weeks to use your second free wash. Just scan your receipt to use your second wash, and you can use it at any Raceway location. The Champion wash comes with a dash wipe, microfiber towel, and a new car scent. Staff is friendly and helpful, and I love how they have restrooms and water fountains on-site. They have strong vacuums here as well and a compressed air spray. read more

This car wash has everything you need for an awesome experience and a beautifully washed car! The gentleman who helped me at the drive thru was so friendly and not at all pushy (like some salespeople at car washes), then you get this great little bag with all your car wash supplies (cloth towel, dash wipe, air freshener) to wash itself was quick, but really thorough. My car didn't even need me to wipe it down it was so dry at the end - the tire shine is my favorite part. The vacuums are strong and there was another employee who even came up and gave me a few fresh towels from the wash! The location itself is clean and there was no issues with taking my time to finish the interior of my car. GREAT experience and I will be back!! Plus the car still looks good a few days later read more

I normally use the quick wash in Surprise but they were broken down so thought I would give Raceway a try as they are close to my house. I was extremely disappointed in the quality of the wash. I seemed that all it did was rinse the dirt down the side of my truck. Air hose was missing from the vacuum area. I did not do the cheapest wash nor the most expensive but for 18.00 I expect at least to be clean down the sides of my truck I do not recommend this place read more

Poor customer service when attempting to cancel on 12/01/2022 in person. On 01/19/2023 I am still being charged - $19.95. Today I decided to send in a chat. I spoke with chat rep, Jessica, who advised that they would escalate this to "team management" after I sent her my bank statement. Then Jessica sent her "closing statement". She never explained the process nor responded back to me after I asked a clarifying question. I closed the chat after 13mins and no response from the rep.. read more

Their car wash hydraulics went out today and had multiple cars stuck. Missed my eye appointment waiting around because of the issues at this car wash. Not one fucking associate apologized, rather looked at the customers as a inconvenience. Beyond belief and to my dismay the owner showed up and same shit, unapologetic. I gave this car wash another chance for my business after the other newer car wash opened up down the street because I support local businesses. After this fuck up, I sure hope this guy closes down due to this poor customer service. No wonder why his car wash is slow as shit and the other one flourishing, take care of your customers and they will do the same to you. Fuck this place! read more

Monday March 6th I went to this car wash. When I came out I noticed my WINDSHIELD had CRACKED. I call corporate she says oh no. There should be a manager on duty that I can speak with. I went to speak with a guy. He writes down information and says his manager will contact me. It's been a week. I've tried contacting and no one responds back. I wouldn't suggest going here!! read more

After Driving on desert trails with my off-road club, my great, big, beautiful, blue, ZR2 needs a complete cleaning. Only one place in town I'll take my Camero and Silverado - Raceway Express on Thunderbird in Peoria where you'll get the best exterior wash available. The "Boss" greets me and prepares my ZR2 removing all bugs, dirt, debris, before the wash cycle. My ZR2 comes out look'in brand new again. Wow!! Now I'm happy. I can recommend this fine establishment to all. read more

Have been there twice. First time guy at front would NOT stop pressuring me to upgrade. Really uncomfortable. This time that guy was fine. Just respectfully sold me the basic option. Then second guy who guides my car in had a real attitude and was hard to understand. Not cool. Also, when I got out I noticed a bunch of light scratches in addition to a very incomplete exterior cleaning. Can probably be waxed out, but pretty upsetting. No one likes to pay to have their car damaged!!! Do NOT recommend! They have a competitor down the road, may try, might just need to wash my own car! read more

I think Jennifer S must be an employee or got some sort of perk for her review as my experience was I could have received more benefits going to a car wash & doing it myself because this was the shortest least beneficial car wash I've ever experienced. I paid for the Grand Champion for $22 & got ripped off!!! read more

Very good car wash...just be careful of their "specials". I took a special for a month free car washes for the price of a single wash, then found out they charged my card every month for the deal. Had to report fraud, which resulted in me having to get a new debit card - just an unnecessary hassle for a car wash. It's a crappy way to to business, but they do it anyway. Caveat emptor! read more

Decided to try a new car wash because Super Star sucks!! Came here and it wasn't busy at all, employees were super friendly!! I was asked if I wanted to join their monthly plan, I said no (only because it was my first time ever going there) and I was not harassed about not getting it or guilt tripped into not getting it, which made me like this company even more!! Before I even got a wash she gave me a towel and sprayed my front windshield down and then got this mop and scrubbed it down (as well as the back windshield too!!) I was super impressed with the wash, my car was actually clean!! No dirt or water marks on my car! I forgot to mention that their are great prices too!! They are cheaper than Super Star and way better quality!!! I highly recommend going here for a wash and I will definitely be coming back! read more

Best service. Mario is outstanding. I have three locations close to my residence but they don't come close to Thunderbird. Strong vacuums, clean facilities and grounds, and great service. read more

I've been a weekly customer of this car wash for a couple of years. The quality of the automated car wash is good. Until recently, the attendants would take a wet brush over the windshield, or a pressurized hose to the windshield or sides, but that hasn't happened in at least 6 weeks. It's not that this affects the quality of the car wash, but having this service removed after having it done on a regular basis over the past years gives me a negative impression on the service I get. The employees went from doing a small service that gave a positive first impression to just waving the customers through. read more

The car wash does a great job of washing and drying. I have to wipe up a little water but not bad. I like that the vacuum stalls have vacuums and compressed air on both sides of the car. And I can go every single day if I want to. read more

Good little car wash. Friendly guy working there. Theres a cheap wash that 6$ just basically a rinse and dry, I got the $10 basic one and it did a pretty good job. They have nice strong vacuums with the skinny heads (I prefer those because they can fit between seats) only lacking the interior wipe that most of the other cheap car washes have as well as the towels to dry spots that got missed. Luckily i had a towel and my own interior spray but just making a note of it. Also could use more shade over the vacuums. read more

The car was okay it didn't seem to hit one side that well with the brushed but the vacuums where great they where strong suction and they had a small nose bit so you can get under the seat and in the triangle of death. read more

After all the rain we've had lately, my vehicle was filthy. Since moving to Peoria and seeing this on my commute, I've been meaning to stop and give it a try. Super convenient location smack dab on Thunderbird on the border of Peoria / Sun City. You pull in to their location and drive around to the start of the wash. The attendant there asks what kind of wash you want which varies the degree of cleanliness and the length of the car wash you're going to receive. I opted for their $10 wash. They swipe your credit / debit card and you enter the wash. An attendant there sprays all the road grime and bug guts off the front of your vehicle and then the wash begins. The brushes appeared to be soft and the bulk of the wash utilizes a microfiber sheet (I asked) because like most of you - my clearcoat is important to me. In other words, I don't want some dude in his rusty Ford Super Duty using this wash after he's just been mud-bogging in his buddies back yard. If the wash and more specifically, their microfiber sheets which glide across your clearcoat are covered in this poor sap's gravel and mud - guess what's getting dragged paint job?? ...this is terribly important to me and what I look for most in a car wash. The microfiber sheets and soft texture brushes appeared cleared. So after your vehicle is washed and rinsed, you go through a series of dryers which is also fairly nice. Most of the car washes around town have no desire in drying your vehicle. In fact, they give you 10 to 40 seconds to completely dry off your vehicle with an ill-equipped dryer that pushes you out into the hot Arizona sun. The water spots then get baked onto your paintjob and then you're forced to go home and re-wash your fricken vehicle again. UGH! So get this... you exit the car wash after your vehicle has been dried and you pull around past the detail station you passed when you entered the wash. There are little detail stations set-up for vehicles who have used the car wash! Each station is furnished with hoses that run to their main air compressor. You actually get to stand there and dry off all the little nook and crannies and rid them of water on your vehicle! I brought a bunch of towels with me, used their air compressor to blow all the little droplets of water that inevitably leave white streaks of dry hard water stains all across your paint. What an awesome idea! I realize the use of an air compressor to dry off your vehicle is nothing new (Jackson's Car Wash locations do the same thing), BUT it was nice that I they set-up little stations for you to do it yourself! The car wash was clean, the stations were clean and it was an awesome experience. My vehicle came out of the wash flawless which is awesome as I have aftermarket front and rear bumpers as well as aftermarket wheels and tires. Everything was in the same condition as it was in prior to me entering the car wash. I will definitely be back and would most definitely recommend it to any friends, family or fellow Yelp'ers! read more

Best car wash I've ever been to. Used to go to Superstar down the street, there's no comparison. Would recommend to anyone.

Raceway is probably the only car wash besides self serves that me and my boyfriend trust our cars to go through, it doesn't mess up the paint and the monthly prices aren't bad for up to 2 washes a day. But what really makes this place is Peter! He's extremely friendly and you can tell he's a hard worker, this place is blessed to have an employee like him :) read more

We went to the one on Thunderbird at about 4:45 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 16. Our truck needed washing badly. But, we got there and there were cones across the driveways, so we couldn't get in!! read more

BEWARE, TIRE SHINE APPLICATION STAINS PLASTIC ON WHITE CARS. Thunderbird/Express Car Wash is aware of this issue and refuses to take responsibility. Over-application caused splatter and stained our BRAND NEW white car. Raceway promised to contact manufacturer for solvent or application to remove stains - and then denied responsibilty, in an e-mail to us! BEWARE, company will not stand behine what they promise. read more

Great place ! Joe was great & very friendly Explaining all there packages . Got my monthly pass Excited to use it . read more

The car wash was whatever. I went early thinking that they had an early bird deal because of other reviews. Nope. They had signs saying you could get a free rag to clean your car. Nope. After going through the was my car still had spots and dirt on the back and on the lower sides. Just okay. Customer service was whatever. Took my card and that's as it. No talk ups or any help. read more

Mediocre car wash. They handed me a napkin at the beginning and I thought "oh that's cool, the fuck am I gonna do w this napkin?" Then I pulled around the corner after the wash and ur supposed to dry off ur car w this. I recommend superstar car wash if u want to actually dry off your car. Nice staff tho read more

The young man working tonight helped me at 7:59pm, I just had to run it through the wash, no vacuum but he didn't know that. Was very courteous and even had a friendly conversation... they close at 8pm! He could've been a jerk or rude because I was that guy that showed up right before closing but he wasn't. Excellent service sir! read more

Just wanted to say the general manager at this car wash Bianca is amazing my husband was having a problem with his membership for his truck and we had Bianka come over and she did everything in her power to figure out why I get under the account couldn't find it get under another account still couldn't find it talk to the person on the account and was there to help fix the problem it was like come in on a day that I'm here and I'll help you fix it get it all set up and fixed and she is amazing if you ever have a problem talk to Bianka the general manager a mazing woman read more

I wish i could give this place 100 stars!! Employees were extremely nice and helpful, and they have an awesome "early bird" deal from 7-10 am that gets you an amazing wash for half the price. I live on the other side of the valley and i will definitely be finding excuses to come to this side of town every time i need a car wash!! Amazing!!! read more

Great wash! We got the best one, it cost $20 but came with a BOGO code. The wash came with a micro fiber towel, air freshener and a packaged wet towelette for your dashboard. The drive through the wash itself is fun with all the cool colors and such. At the end there's free vacuums. Definitely will be back here again. My car looks better than if I visited one of those "get-out-and-they-call-you-over-at-the-end" places. read more

Paid for the high end "membership" expecting to efficiently get my car washed. The conveyor belt messed up and grinding against my tires and rims. All that was told to me was "this hasn't happened before." I was livid. All that was "done" was returning my membership with very little to no words of right sizing the situation. I left with my car dirtier than when I came (pre wash couldn't be rinsed off). Awful service. read more

Bianca, who said she is the general manager yelled at me today. I do not condone any violence and this place is really going down hill because of her. I was in line waiting patiently at 6:55am as they open at 7am. There was a guy that had already gone through the car wash as he was drying off his car and I could see that the wash was wet so I was surprised when I pulled up and the cones were in front of the drive. At 7:02 nobody had come out yet to remove the cones so I though maybe they just accidently left them there so I removed it. A woman came running out yelling at me. Hey you can't do that, we will open when we want to open. I asked her name politely and she yelled again my name is Bianca and I will open when I want to open don't remove the cone again. I drove through and they decided to leave me there until 7:15am before coming to let me through the wash. Never again, I am cancelling my service as any type of violence is not ok with me. read more

So I have been using them for about 4 months and all was good until I purchased a new car. not so easy to change it over. I do not remember what credit card I used and they cannot find me by name or phone number. After numerous calls some guy by the name of Brian called me said he was the general manager and without credit card information no way to stop being charged. Well since I never signed anything and they are not able to cancel anything at this time per law they are charging your card monthly without permission and that is FRAUD I asked for a corporate location we do not have one. The wash is great however customer service and trying to change your account is not. Just another company that does not care about the patrons they service. read more

Ashton changed our mind about this car wash and really gave us a great wash prep and gave us a lot of info on there new selections! We have liked this place since they opened but had noticed some ( not all) employees were getting lazy with the bug spray and scrub pre car wash. Got a great wash today and plan on continuing our membership read more
