    Dirt and soap still on vehicle.
    Elle A.

    Monthly member here that is really considering cancelling my membership. Service has really gone down in the last 2 years. Today I drove over to Stanford shopping center. When I parked and opened my trunk I noticed soap suds and dirt still in my rear lights. Did it get wiped down at all? If the owner reads here I hope you're evaluating team moral or overworked employees? Not sure what's happening, but bad service often traces back to people not being happy and underpaid. I'd be happy to change my review if service turns things around, but so far it's been pretty bad this year.

    Scratch to my ceramic coating

    Here's my update.. There's more minor scratches that I was able to remove took me hours.. Then there's the deep scratch. It's pretty noticeable too. Yes it's not as bad but I just got this car and that ceramic coating not even a week after getting a car wash from them.

    I don't usually leave bad reviews, but I was disappointed with the service. Even though I paid for the intermediate service, the results were worse than the basic service. I know it's a quick car wash and you want to do a lot of cars, but you should take a few more seconds for these small details, since you're supposedly paying for a little more attention to the car.

    I was looking for a full service car wash and came across this on the way home from work. I haven't gone to a full service car wash in a decade (OGs remember the Lozano Thursday $11 specials...). Reviews were good, and there really aren't a lot of options for full service car washes around the area, so decided to check them out. I was cautiously optimistic because the cost of car washes today don't equal quality. Unfortunately, my cautious optimism was warranted. While they did clean my car quick and well, it cost me ~$55 for a car wash (this included a $10 add on to wash the floor mats). They also missed a few spots. However, where they're really losing stars is their carelessness - they left a huge deep scratch.

    A couple weeks ago, a person in SF threw ramen at my car. The next day when I tried to take the car to the wash, the car had a full electrical breakdown; it was an unlucky week. By the time it was repaired, the ramen was deeply encrusted on the car. I initially brought the car to Auto Pride Car Wash hoping that a simple wash would resolve the issue. However, this didn't do the trick. One of the managers, Aurelio, suggested a hand wax and buff for a reasonable price. He was authentic in suggesting solutions that would resolve the issue within my price range. After the initial wax, I was happy with the result, but the manager noticed that some marks were still slightly visible. He insisted on giving it a second go to ensure the car was in tip top shape. I really appreciated the quality of the service I received. I felt that everyone at the car wash was kind and very capable. Highly recommend! (Especially If you're experiencing an usual car cleaning need like ramen crusting)

    Bought the 44$ gold car wash. These guys didn't even clean the interior. They just put the car through the automatic wash and vacuumed the carpet (which also they did a horrible job). The car was as dirty as it came and I simply wasted 44$. They didn't even wipe basic things like obvious dirt and footprints. Apparently wiping interiors counts as "detailing" which they are too busy to do anyways. Horrible and will never go again. Just go to a shell car wash. A 8$ wash will be faster cheaper and will clean better.

    Been visiting this place for many years but service has gone way down over the past year. Noticed multiple dark spots on the interior and exterior after the wash, not just on seat but also steering wheel and armrest, which myself clean it regularly due to being beige interior. No idea how often they wash their towels. Will not return again.

    first time to auto pride on a hot summer day didnt expect for a handwash, dry, windows and tire dressing to be 19.99 serious value here, quality was ok, wish they dried down the door jambs, would've paid extra for this but may come back if another opportunity presents itself?

    This is what I paid for & the mats were the only thing in the list that were cleaned. My car didn't even get the Lemon Air Freshner!

    See all

A car wash and basic detailing was $189 which is reasonable for the labor and for the area. They were able to book me in the next day which I really appreciate it! The place was easy to find, nestled off the main El Camino busy road. I dropped it off and they said they would text me 10-20 minutes before it was done. It took about 1-2 hours and they did exactly what they said they did - I got a text 15 minutes before and my car was ready shy of 2 hours. I was able to walk down El Camino to Coupa Caffe (which is about 10 minute walk) and wait there. That was very convenient as I didn't have to take an uber anywhere but was able to enjoy the nice sunshine with a brisk walk. Highly recommend going to go get a coffee while you wait! When I did pick up the car, it was beautifully polished and well clean inside. They even cleaned my kids car seats which I appreciated!! This is a small local business and they seem to really care about their client satisfaction. So if you are looking to get your car washed, cleaned, detailed... this is the place!!!

We haven't done a detail since we bought the car two years ago, so this was a long time coming.

When I returned for the car, the car was immaculate, so clean you'd think you don't even need to buy a car for the next 25 years. We also have a dog that drives in the car frequently, not to mention whatever stains and since we're in the car from the previous owner, and even then, the car looked fantastic, the rugs look like freshly mowed lawn, and it was just spotless.

You don't need a hose hook up or an outlet as they have all of that in their van. The detailer showed up early which I appreciated and patiently waited while I cleared all of the crap out of my car. He was quick, but very thorough! We will be using them again for our regular washes at the house as you cannot get this kind of attention to detail at the local busy car wash.

Took a day to travel around to quite a few shops and inspect their current work. It wasn't even close. Got a frozen grey that I wrapped with the Xpel stealth satin.

If you own a Tesla or any high-end car and care about quality, this is absolutely the place to go. Joe, the owner, is always welcoming and clearly pours his passion into the business. You can tell immediately how much he values his team. He treats his staff like family, and it shows in their work. Everyone there genuinely enjoys what they do, and they really do live up to the "OCD" name when it comes to attention to detail. I learned the hard way that not all highly rated Yelp shops deliver real quality. After going to another popular place, a friend pointed out several issues in the work that I had completely missed. Never again! I would much rather pay for top-tier service and have peace of mind than worry about fixing problems later. Most recently, I had a front PPF and tint done on my Tesla, and the results were flawless. OCD Detailing is one of the few places capable of tinting the entire Tesla roof using a single piece, with no seams, and it looks incredible. They were also kind enough to help install hub caps I purchased separately and recommended a great source for blacked-out emblems. My car turned out beautiful. The only downside is that I live in San Francisco, so the drive is a bit out of the way, but it was absolutely worth it. I recommend OCD Detailing to all my friends whenever they're looking for high-quality PPF or tinting. If you care about your car, this is where you take it.
