Roller and air blowers peeled the roof trim off my vehicle.  Busted the clips on the trim.

Took my truck thru the wash. Last set of rollers hit my truck unusually hard. Immediately after, the air blowers peeled the trim off just like a peel. Not all at once but inch by inch as I traveled along the conveyor. Of course filled out the report and waited for their insurance to reply. Denied my claim because site manager said nothing was wrong with equipment; even though the video would show otherwise. $20 car wash turns into $1000 repair. That's more like a gamble than vehicle maintenance. Good luck if you go.

This is their helpful staff busy taking care of customers. He stayed in the same location the entire time I was there.

I've been a customer of this location even before it was bought out by Take 5 car wash. The quality of wash and service keeps getting worse and today was my last. Today 70% of the vacuums were not working. The cleaning towels provided were dirty and still wet. The window cleaner and internal cleaning sprays are so water down they are little more than colored water. This location has three employees, all either on their phones, playing basketball and listening to music not appropriate for my children. When I pulled up the get the outside of my vehicle washed, instead the of using their brush to get the detail areas on my front and back bumper they just threw water on my windshield (that doesn't do anything) Inside the car wash I noticed many of the car wash sections were broken or not working. I no longer feel that this location can correctly clean my vehicle. It's really disappointing to see this once great location turn into a waste of money. I tried reaching out, but no information is provided to contact a manager or the corporate office. It's clear that the employees don't have pride in their work, they are not properly trained or managed. If your looking for value, your better off using the self-service car wash next door. That's where I'll be going from now on.

Car wash completely left stains on the exterior and even having gotten a second wash, have not come out

Went to the Express here in the Northglenn area and definitely came back with a dirtier car than I started. Staff was unwelcoming and unhelpful when scanning my member tag and so I went ahead and paid for a regular wash, but one of the girls working there said that I could add on a wax and tire cleaning for a good valued price at $15 and so I agreed. The wash completely stained the emblem on my car and the color of the soap is stuck in crevices I can't clean out unless going through a wash all over again. The value wasn't worth it and it stained my white car. They couldn't even be wiped down by the complementary cloth given. First and last experience here, which I'm disappointed by as it's close by and it's other locations have never had service like this.

Example of damage from car wash on every panel of car

This car wash damaged my car. $10,000.00 later and they have yet to respond to my emails. There is a sign stating they are not responsible for aftermarket accessories, which I understand, although I've never had a car wash take off a window deflector until this one did. I'm not the only person who has had their car damaged at this car wash. They have too powerful of brushes with not enough sensitive sensors. Every single panel on my car, one roof rail, side view mirrors, headlamps and tail lights all damaged.

Free detail kit for checking in on Yelp!

Was shopping nearby, and realized how dirty my car was, so I decided to stop here to get my car washed. When I pulled up, there was a bit of a line, but it moved in no time so that wasn't an issue. There are a variety of car wash levels, so you can spend as little or as much as you want to get your car cleaned. Once you have gone through the car wash, they have a bunch of free vacuums that you can use to clean your interior. Another cool thing they have is a machine that cleans floor matts that is free. I thought this was a good value, and I liked all the additional free car cleaning options. I also checked in here on Yelp, and they gave me a free car detail kit that is pretty nice to keep in your car.

Hours are garbage. They don't open until 8am so they are unusable in the AM. Might as well not open until noon.

Hands down, one of my favorite car washes that I go to. I try to make it a point to always come…read morehere when I need to wash my car! I've had amazing results specifically with the new side that they built over here but that may sound stupid cause I'm sure they use the same product for both sides. I have a 2018 Kia so I generally wash my car in the do it yourself bays cause I like getting every little bit of my car clean & then I use the hand held dryers & get awesome results. The do it yourself bays are always clean & very well maintained. I personally spend about $15-$18 when I use the do it yourself wash which includes me using the foam brush, spray wax, spotless rinse & followed with the hand held dryer at the end. The shine that I get after I use their spray wax & then use the hand held dryer, is really surprising & I've never gotten such a good end result from a car wash honestly! But the auto washes do an amazing job as well. I think they do a lot better than most. Obviously with auto washes, you can never ever expect it to get every single nook & cranny but I have yet to have any issues with their auto washes here & have a lot of dirt or anything left over that the auto wash didn't get. I have never left the auto wash with scratches or damage to my car, I check it every time when I'm done. Also, the new side has a dog wash that is really awesome!! I've only used it once but it was so convenient & simple. It was gentle & is set up well to contain your dog safely. The new vacuums on the newly built side are phenomenal. The one I use has like a "super turbo" option & it actually does have crazy suction & gets everything out of my carpet & rugs I guess you could say the only downfall to this location would be the crazy lines that accumulate on warm weekend days. But that's a given at any car wash & it's just something that happens anywhere so that's not their fault & the lot is big enough to accommodate lines without getting too crowded. The people who run this car wash do a great job in my opinion & I'll continue to come back.

You could call me the overly obsessive type when it comes to cleaning my car. So before moving to…read moreCalifornia, Blue Wave was my #1 choice when it came to getting the job done. Washing my car is therapeutic for me, so I prefer using the self-serve bays. I also used to think that automatic car washes don't do as good of a job...but thanks to Blue Wave, I was proven wrong (we'll get to that later). When they say "high-pressure", they're not lying. I've tried many different car washes in my day and none can compare to the water pressure that Blue Wave provides. Bye-bye bugs & dirt without having to scrub?? That's what I'm talkin' about! The fact that plastic is accepted was huuuuge plus for me. Not only because I didn't have to go digging for quarters and dollar bills anymore, but there was no timer that screamed at me when I got down to the last 60 seconds. As I was washing my car one day, a cute old Asian man (whom I believe is the owner because I used to say hi to him all the time), offered me a coupon to try their automatic car wash for free the next time I came in. A couple weeks and a couple snow storms later, I came by to use the coupon and I was pleasantly surprised at out clean my car came out...even with layers of dried up dirt and grime from the slushy snows of CO. *Two thumbs up* Oh how I miss you, Blue Wave. I have yet to find a car wash even remotely comparable to you guys out here in SoCal. The city of Thornton is lucky to have you. All in all, this place is everything a car wash should be. Well done.

Super clean (aside from the a-holes who bring their extremely muddy cars here and leave it all over the ground for the next person to step in. Not the business' fault!). The only complaints I have are: -The dryer for the automatic wash sucks...er...blows...but it definitely doesn't dry the car very well,l especially on the sides. -The dog wash is pricey. I do get 10 minutes included in my membership but to wash your dog and thoroughly dry them it definitely takes longer and the $$$ adds up. I also have a big dog, though. -During busy times you do have to wait a while since the small amount of manual stalls and the three automatic stalls are all in use. That's not that big of a deal, though, just come during off-hours. -If you need to contact customer support it's not immediate but they are very friendly. All in all I'm really happy with this place and will continue to use it! I also love that you can use your membership at any location. P.S. The gas station next door has free air if you need to pump up your tires. Another plus.

1 Star - Negligence and Complete Lack of Accountability. On…read moreMarch 31st, I visited the automatic Autowash at 120th & Holly, and what should have been a routine car wash turned into a damaging and frustrating experience. While my vehicle was in the middle of the wash cycle, I suddenly heard a loud bang--like metal striking my car. When the wash finished, I discovered that a piece of metal had fallen from one of their rusted roof beams, hitting the top of my vehicle. The impact caused a noticeable dent and stripped the paint all the way down to bare metal. I immediately documented everything with photos and video. I attempted to contact them right away, but since it was after hours, I left a message. The following day, I called again and was told to file an online damage report and that a manager would contact me the following week. Given how clear the situation was--and that this was obviously caused by poor maintenance of their facility--I expected them to take responsibility. That never happened. After waiting with no response, I followed up myself. When I finally spoke with a manager, I was told that I needed to file a claim with my own insurance before they would proceed. This is completely unreasonable considering the damage was caused by their facility, not by anything I did. I explained that I did not want to involve my insurance for something that was clearly not my fault, as it could negatively impact me. Instead of escalating or helping resolve the issue, they doubled down. The following day, I was told that if I did not go through my insurance, they would close the case entirely--despite the fact that they have video footage of the incident and full documentation from me. This is not just poor customer service--it is a clear attempt to avoid liability and shift responsibility onto the customer. A business that allows parts of its structure to fall and damage vehicles, then refuses to take responsibility, shows a complete lack of integrity and accountability. At this point, I have no choice but to pursue legal action. This situation could have been resolved quickly and professionally, but instead, they chose to deny responsibility for something that was entirely within their control. I strongly caution anyone considering this location. If something goes wrong, do not expect them to stand behind their service or take responsibility for their negligence.
