The Auto Scrubber

I really like this place but unfortunately it’s now permanently closed down. Just an FYI so you don’t make the drive like I did

Great place to get a car wash. $ 12 got my car super clean inside and out! Fast and easy, great customer service.

Nice enough staff but even with all the signage, this is the most confusing setup ever. I came here about 5 years ago, entering off Rosecrans (this time I entered off Midway) and even so, I was lost.

For under $ 12 they cleaned inside and out. I am typically disappointed by the vacuum and interior detail with most car wash places. They did an excellent job however. They also found drops of sap all over my car and took the time to clean it off for no extra charge. Service was fast and efficient.

They did an amazing job on my jeep!!! Washed, waxed, vacuumed and detailed inside! $ 45 very well spent!!!

I understand when I get may car washed on Friday it may take longer. That being said I arrived at 3:15p and wasn’t out of the «professional» dry and interior clean area until 4:25p. Over an hour and the whole time I saw cars leaving with water spots and lint all over them. This was my second time here (first was over a year ago and same experience) and shame on me for not learning. I will not be coming back. Bad wash and too slow for $ 15. There seemed to be a lot of the staff standing around not working as well and that was just icing on the cake. Owner should know.

I paid $ 16.95 for my car wash, that included interior and exterior. It does not list what they specifically clean, but you would think they would wipe down the dashboards, the doors, the seats. My car looks awful. When I asked the manager, she told me I got what I paid for. Please check out my pictures so that you can see the service you will get when you pay for an interior cleaning.

This place was A-​OK. The car wash was fast and they got most of the dirt off of my car. I think the $ 8.99 car wash is very comparable to one of those car wash machines at gas stations. They didn’t do that good of a job with the drying and didn’t really put any extra effort in getting my car completely cleaned. For that price, I think I would rather go to a machine car wash.
I think I would probably come back and give them another chance and see maybe they would give me a better car wash, maybe.

This review is primarily about the cheapskate, lack of pride OWNERSHIP! They have a dilapidated sign that has been missing a letter for YEARS. There’s a hideous metal contraption on top of the car wash that has been obsolete for YEARS, just sits there, remaining an eyesore of gigantic proportions, lazy, cheap owners can’t take the time to maintain the property. It’s really a disgrace. GO ACROSS THE STREET TO THE BRAND NEW, SHINY, COURTEOUS $ 5.00 WASH. IT’S A BREATH OF FRESH AIR. Pride of ownership, value, fast, modern. It’s a wonderful addition to the neighborhood. The Auto Scrubber needs a new image, STAT.

I’ve been coming to this car was for over 8 years. I used to love it — it was cheap, fast and convenient. Now it drives me bananas. Prices have gone up but service has gone down. Your average wait for a below average detail is up wards of an hour.

So disappointed after my second time here. Totally hit and miss, apparently. The first time I bought a basic wash, it took a really long time but I saw the guy who was finishing up my car and he was really focused on cleaning every detail. My car was spotless. Next time i went there I bought the deluxe wash — my car was done a lot faster than the first time when I just had the basic wash, and it seemed only half clean. There were big black marks still on my rear bumper and I was already worried that my car got hit a while ago and I didn’t notice, but, no, I could wipe it off with my hand. Really? You couldn’t clean that during the ‘deluxe wash’? Disappointed.

No way these reviews are legit on here or people just don’t care about their cars and I notice that by looking who’s pulled up next to me. Every time I go here, my car is half cleaned so I mostly blame that on the prescrubber because it ALWAYS bumper level. I’m pretty sure they messed up the tint on one my cars by wiping it will a unknown solution and they take way too long. Some people said they took 30 minutes but I most definitely sat here for 45+ on multiple occasions.

First time here! Loved it. They are quick and leave your car really clean! I will defiantly be back when I’m in the San Diego area. Hard working individuals!

I bought a basic wash. They still haven’t explained to me why the people with full details got out before me. Their towels left lint all over my car. Someone left a shoe print on my floorboards as they were trying to try off the roof. I am looking for a new car wash to go to. This was just ridiculous.

Saved my life, it says open till 6 but thankfully when I came they were still open.
I felt a little bad since I didn’t have any cash for tip Sorry guys but I will make sure I bring some next time.

I love coming here because my car always comes out looking new. I recommend that everyone comes here to get their car washed. I’ve been coming here for 15 years and I plan to stay loyal to this place. I tell all my friends to go here.

Worst wash for the price. Paid for full service wash.
My truck had tons of lint and water spots. The green towels leave a lot of lint. My truck is 3 months old, so I know my paint is fine.
While I was waiting for my truck a customer vehicle came to full service area with soap sti on vehicle. The washer is old and poor quality.
I do not know why the have a guy with the scrub brush –pre scrubbing.
Drying they have short workers climbing on tires and standing on yoour floorboard to reach the roof, the slapping the towel to reach where their arms are too short.
Will not repeat, go someplace that is better quality.
I will say the women workers take more care and do a more thourough job than the guys.

7 or 8 bucks for a basic wash, you’re in and out in under 10 minutes.
Hot date? Better make those 13.5“s and that one spare tire that’s been on there for 2 months sparkle — this is your place.

Haters gonna hate about this place but at the end of the day if you need a carwash and dont care if its crazy thorough, go to autoscrubber!
These guys work their butts off and i have a lot of respect for them. They do the best they can to bust out as many cars as they can, fast! Vaccuming job is always on point and i like the scented sprays they have. DONT forget to tip!!!

I’m sure this has to happen at least once and a while, but this phenomena happened to me twice, and for that, I can’t come back. Here’s why:
I came here while it was somewhat busy, maybe 5 – 6 cars ahead of me, and my car got washed and then I parked it to get in line for vacuuming/​drying. Well… they skipped over my car, moving every car that came in after me in front of my car and after waiting an hour and my car hadn’t been touched, I had to leave. I walked up to a worker and said, «Hey, 4 people who got here after me are now finished, you guys forgot about my car, but I need to leave, I can’t sit here all day.» The hispanic worker smiles and nods while saying, «No ingles.» Ughhhhh. Bull. He knew, he just didn’t want to own up to it.
After a few months of boycotting this place and paying more to go to the Genie car wash nearby, I decided to give this place another shot. I swear to God, the exact same thing happened again, but this time I waited it out for a one hour and twenty minute cleaning, for a pretty basic package. This place used to be such a good deal with high quality work, but now it just takes to long for me, I can’t keep doing it.
