Fast forward ...and we are at the second new management team. I would give the first new management 4 stars...they did a good job for several years. All 5 stars for this new team. From start to finish Betsy 13 got a wonderful service and is shiny clean. Only one misstep...I always request no Tire Dressing...why ? Because American Tire recommends it for longer tire life. Seems the team in front did not read the instruction ticket. After I spoke to them, they confirmed my request, so chalking it up to a teachable moment. Very happy... read more

Splashes Car Wash - Car Wash Near Me - Livermore, California

I just got home from paying for a 50 dollar "royal" wash here and this is what my roof looks like! Still covered in dirt! He tried to upsell me on some waxing which I turned down because a 50 dollar wash seemed like in included all that I needed. I took a wet cloth with regular soap when I got home and was able to get 95% of that off my roof with little effort. This place is a total scam and my husband and I will never go back. They were also super pushy with trying to upsell a membership. Do not go here! read more

I have to have my car hand washed. $80.00 is twice what I paid in Orange County in 2025. They do a good job. read more

The service is always done within a reasonable. Time . I've never been disappointed. From time to time I get the additional hand wax service. Fantastic. read more

About a month ago, I had them do a hand car wash. They did not use microfiber cloths and there was lint all over the car, the glass, and where they did armorall. It looked terrible. I had to wipe it down. There were hard water spots on hood, and streaks from door handles down the door, and rear trunk running down bumper through armor all where they didn't dry the car completely. Places were still dirty. They did not clean the sunroof. I was very disappointed. They need to work on quality, hopefully they read the reviews and can improve. read more

One of the worst car wash experiences. $60 for a careless, low-quality job. Instead of fixing the issue properly, they handed me a coupon and sent me back later--only for the same bad service to repeat. Absolutely not recommended. read more

So expensive for what you get. They don't do a great job with cleaning or vacuuming and now they keep trying to sell all kinds of extras. It's annoying. Last two times I went I had to clean and wipe afterwards. Not worth it. Go elsewhere. read more

On November 12th, I brought my car to this shop for a wash. When the car came off the washing track, I noticed an unexplained dent, along with a long crease running from the front door all the way to the rear. I immediately asked the manager about it. He claimed I must have caused it myself and said he had surveillance footage he could show me. However, once my car was fully washed, the manager then said he didn't have the password to access the footage and would give it to me the next day. We exchanged phone numbers. The following day, I texted him, and he still claimed he didn't have the password. After that, I never heard from anyone again -- which says a lot. My repair cost is estimated to be over $4,000. I do not recommend anyone come to this car wash. read more

*posting for my Dad, Francisco" On April 19, 2025, while my truck was being washed, another vehicle came off the railing system and struck the back of my truck. This caused damage to the bumper and tailgate area. The service manager confirmed they had insurance but requested not to involve the insurance company and instead offered to pay out of pocket. He asked me to provide a repair estimate, but when I returned with the quote, he stated it was too high and asked me to get another one. After this, I informed him I would proceed through my own insurance company. As of August 25, I have not received payment for the damages. Based on this experience, I would not bring my vehicles here again. read more

I pulled into Splashes thinking I'd be in and out for a quick wash, but instead I got a front-row seat to everyone else's car going ahead of mine. Seriously I was waiting in line, clearly next, and somehow two cars magically got waved through before me like they were VIPs. No explanation, no apology, nothing. Just me sitting there while the staff acted like I was invisible. By the time it was finally my turn, I was more annoyed than anything else, and honestly the experience ruined the whole visit. If this is how they treat customers, I'm not coming back. Splashes might wash cars, but they definitely washed away my patience. read more

My car became quite dirty as I could not find to get washed in the last month as I was very busy. I took it to their car wash station where they washed it thorough and gently. They applied the soap everywhere and then splashed water. My car became entirely clean after getting a comprehensive wash. read more

The wait time is ridiculous as they are woefully understaffed. They have no rhyme or reason as to order of what car goes when. Haven't been here in a decade had hoped they'd improved the process. Alas, hopes dashed. Time wasted while other cars were taken care of (out of FIFO order) before our car. Will NOT be back. UPDATE: fifty-two minutes to get back. It sat on the driveway drying (and collecting water spots.). Terrible job and WAY overpriced. Do NOT USE this place. read more

First off they close at 430. I've been here 45 min and my car has yet to come through, however other cars have appeared that were not there when I pulled in. Not 1 person was present to vacuum the 6 cars lined up...but the manager was there and talking to an employee, yet he did nothing to expedite the backup. No umbrellas outside and its been hot all week. Used my last coupon from the book I bought and I think I will find another location after today. I hope the car is at least clean after an hour+ read more

The service varies at Splashes. Oftentimes cupholders and door pockets aren't wiped clean and sometimes they don't seem to pay as much attention to the back seats, especially 3rd row. This shouldn't happen considering the price being charged. I went on Fri 9/5 around noon & waited about 50min for my car; there were alot of cars & less workers than I normally see, so I understood the wait. However, it gave me alot of time to observe, especially the 2 guys driving the cars from the wash to the wipe down area. The 1st guy (very tall & thin wearing a short-sleeved shirt) handled the cars cautiously and respectfully. He immediately began wiping down cars whenever he didn't have one that needed to be moved. He also very kindly apologized for the wait once my car was done. I wish I'd gotten his name, but hope the owner/manager will recognize him from my description and acknowledge him somehow. However, the 2nd guy (black beard, wearing a black hoodie w/hood up over a baseball cap, black skinny jeans & brown boots/shoes) was borderline reckless; driving way too fast in that small space, stopping short & so close to other vehicles. I wouldn't drive my own car that way let alone a customer's. It was unnecessary and disrespectful. The other workers were doing their best to complete the cars as quickly as possible. read more

I can't say enough about the great service at this car wash. Tim was our helper and he's a new employee. I just learned, but he went above and beyond the customer service. He was kind, he was helpful. He went the "extra mile" as their sign says above their store. I will be a lifetime customer at this car wash. read more

Extremely slow service and overpriced for what you get. They consistently fail to complete the job properly, leaving spots uncleaned or missed entirely. For the high prices they charge, the lack of quality care and the inconsistent results are absurd. Definitely not worth it. read more

They cleaned my car so well it looked brand new after took their time and got in the cracks and crevices

This place is terrible, please don't try the clay bar or polish complete gimmick, save your money.

I have gone here for seven years and today had a terrible experience with the manager. He was rude and in spite of the fact I made the wrong choice for a car wash package, he pretty much told me if I didn't wanna come back that was fine. He was a very arrogant and told me about seven times that he had been there for 25 years. Terrible customer service and I feel sorry for the people who work there with him. read more

DO NOT TAKE YOUR CAR HERE!!! I went here against my better judgement and regret it. I read the reviews and should have known better. I recently purchased a new car, and this was my first car wash. I did purchase with a few scratches and fully aware of them. After getting my car wash today I pointed out right away a spot that was not previously there when I dropped it off. I was told that it happened when I got it buffed, I have never had my car buffed. I understand that's my word against theirs but the terrible attitude from the staff was disgusting. read more

I have been to this car wash several times and I am always amazed at how slow they are. Not sure I will be back

Have been going here for years. Always take care of inside floor mats, which is appreciated. I appreciate the detailed service and car value packs. read more

I came to Splashes after my car got covered in bird poop. The bird poop had set in for a couple of days and the team here was able to remove all of it with their cheapest, standard wash. My car looks brand new and I spent under $40 on the wash! Super satisfied! Thanks so much! read more

Terrible car wash!! and high prices. I left the car wash and didn't even bother to inspect my vehicle. When I got home, I noticed they did a horrible job. The rugs were dirty, cupholders, windows, and the dashboard. Terrible job read more

Took my Toyota Tubdra to them on 6/16/25 and when I got home I found numerous areas that were not clean that were part of the $54 car wash including the mats that still were filthy. I was wiping off many areas on the outside that were missed and found that damage was done to my driver side door where the spinning brushes literally burned the paint off in the crack between the door and front fender. It could not have happened from anything other than there as a shopping cart or car door would not burn paint off inside a 1/4" crack. I returned the next day and was told John the manager had left for the day so I came back the following g day and they immediately started accusing me of trying to scam them into fixing damage to my truck. I'm a 49 year old single father and business owner of 22 years here in Livermore and have never tried to rip off anyone let alone another local business that I have gone to for the past 20+ years. I actually used to know the previous manager Mark who was always pleasant to deal with. In addition if I were trying to scam them and purposely went there in an attempt to try and rip them off wouldn't I have pointed out the damage the same day rather than come back a day after? The new manager was useless and their employee who's name has slipped my mind was rude and condescending claiming "his equipment" could never damage a vehicle and I was just trying to get them to pay for repairing my truck. If this guy ever spoke to a customer of mine like he did myself he would be fired on the spot. I now have to take this to small claims court to try and hold them responsible for the damage as I anticipate it will be several thousand dollars to repair. I would highly recommend finding another car wash as this company does not care about you or your vehicle. read more

100% Worst car wash in Livermore 1. I went to get an old friends car washed that hadn't had a good washing in a while and had a lot of dog hair, they showed me the price list without explaining to me there would be an extra charge for vacuuming pet hair, WTH, that's ridiculous. They didn't even tell me in advance, once I got home and took a look at the backseat I realized that there was still dog hair everywhere so I went back and they told me the only way they would address this issue is is if I paid an additional $30 pet hair vacuuming fee. This is insane. I'll never go back again. 2. I think this place hires the workers who got fired from Autopia in downtown Livermore. I was forced to leave one star in order to post my review. read more

My floor mats snap in place and rather than pull them up gently, they muscled them out tearing the floor carpet in 2 places!!! Now the floor mat slides around. They simply covered up the damage and didn't say a word. Thanks guys! I'm never going back. read more

Splashes Car Wash - Holes in carpet where plastic clips were previously. They pulled so hard they tore the carpet making it impossible for the clips to attach. - Car Wash Near Me - Livermore, California

Great car wash, I just wish there was one in the Tri Valley, the monthly cost for members is great.

Happy on my first try. Just finished a cross-country driving trip and back. Never gotten my car detailed as I usually just do quick wash at machine washers. Decided this was a bigger job today. The process was easy and the results were good. Start to finish took about 20 minutes. Well worth it the cost (I got the Special which was $33.99. Even the tires at shiny. read more

The outside of the car looked great. The detailing inside left a lot to be desired, especially considering the $59.99 price tag. I'll take an armor all wipe to it when I get home. It was done a lot quicker than I thought it would be, and it didn't take any time to get served. That being said, I'll wash it myself next time and save sixty bucks. read more

Paid 46.00 and no wipe if seats, steps, side doors . Really get a better job at most 15.00 car wash locations.

Just stopped here to get gas. I'm approached by a kind gentleman that asked if I would want a car wash at 1/2 price for first time customer!) I said ok. Wow. My car just came out and I had to look twice! It looks brand new again. I would definitely stop here for a great wash. My car looks amazing!! read more

All in all they did an ok job, but The new owners have added an "oversize fee" for "medium" and "XL" vehicles. I drive a compact SUV, a CX5, but got charged the $2 "medium" oversize fee. This is nothing more than a ploy to get more profit through deception. And how can "medium" constitute oversize. I complained, but they said no management was making them do it. read more

Just took my car here today and was super happy with how it came out! They took a long time but their attention to detail was very good, paid for the hand wax and wash. I was excited to have found a new car wash spot until I realized there are two scratches in my hood, my car is practically brand new and in otherwise immaculate condition. Knowing there are two scratches (DEEP ones that cannot be buffed, even the metal is scraped off) on the hood is going to haunt me. I understand there is a risk taking your car to any wash, but I didn't expect damage of this nature. Will be telling everyone I know about this, please for your own sake don't come here. I should have checked the yelp reviews first! Very upset. read more

Splashes Car Wash - Damage after Spalshes wash and wax to my new civic Si - Car Wash Near Me - Livermore, California

This car wash has gone down in quality and they've raised their prices. I can't really justify such a high price when the inside isn't properly clean. I will say the outside is done well, but the vacuuming as wiping down doesn't even seem to be done. I've stopped coming here now, I used to be here every 2 months. I want to support the workers but not if we're getting ripped off while trusting our cars to be cleaned properly. Sorry guys. read more

I will not go be going back. They now charge addition for anything larger then a compact car. The also don't have any signage about this.

Very disappointed. Been coming for years and most times they do a great job. Last time I went not so great. So, when I can this time i mentioned to the person who gives your receipt that I'd like it wiped better then last time. I have no idea what her wrote in my paper that goes in the window but two workers read it and walked away. They wouldn't wipe/dry. I had to go back to this person and ask hime what was written. He gave me no response but found people to finish the job. I guess you can't ask for what you pay for! read more

Funny how this place can have you in their store, can wash your car, can have their employees working in your car but have their restrooms closed "because the manager wants them to be closed". California requires service stations that started operating on or after January 1, 1990 and are located within 660 feet of major highways to have clean and sanitary public restrooms. read more

I haven't taken my cars to Splashes since late last year, 2019. I usually go to a drive through these days. But today the drive through was closed so I thought I'll go to Splashes. Use to go once every couple months , pre- COVID 19 and took all the cars in my family .. rotating them. First STICKER SHOCK ... the cheapest wash was $29.99 ... Wheel Deal. Second, they charged an extra $3 for "oversize" ... its an SUV. With the lowest fee plus a tip, this was almost $40. Yikes. Maybe once a year from now on. PS - all the workers were pleasant, the car seems pretty clean . They could have cleaned the wheels better and they didn't hand wipe the top of vehicle ... but maybe I'm being too picky. Also the restroom was closed to patrons. That was a big bummer ... what if there was a long wait folks! Frankly, unless you need all the windows done and vacuuming, better to just go through a drive through car wash most of the time. read more
