    $34 interior vacuum
    Drew B.

    The exterior still looks good, but the interior cleaning here was going way down hill long before covid. Not an isolated incident, multiple times. $34 gets you a gas station quality exterior wash. Imagine using the detail service when they are too lazy to wipe a dash.

    Bug stain
    Jack K.

    Got the full exterior wash and hand dry ($22 after tip) Bug stain in headlights not removed. Basically I guess if you want to pay $20ish for a convenience store rotary fabric whipping on your paint and then just have someone dry the water off go here. As you can see they did not take the effort to remove the bug stain from the headlight. 2 "official " looking guys with Bunkey's logo shirts on were chatting inside the shop. Maybe if the managers were inspecting the work, I would have had better outcome. And when I asked about prices at the start, the guy turned the "specials" price list away from me and said a certain price, I explained to him that I saw the "specials" price online and would like the price I saw online. Only then he showed me the different packages. I don't know, I just felt like I was about to get reamed and should have left from the get go. Ugh...I left them a tip too!!!!

    This is an overpriced service for a very bad clean. I took protection package. Once they were done some of the areas were not cleaned properly on the exterior. Which they cleaned after I pointed out. Then I saw the interior. See the attached photos. You wouldn't believe that I just spent 30$ getting this car cleaned. I have been going here for years just out of habit and it's progressively getting worse. This is my last time to Bunkey's. Goodbye and good luck.

    They did a great job! My car was covered in bugs but they took the time to prepare it instead of just rushing me through. I'm very pleased!

    Normally it's just an outside wash, but if you want to get the full works, which includes vacuuming inside, wiping down the dash, and cleaning the windows inside, you just pay the difference.

    I recently went to this location to get my vehicle washed. My car was brand new--less than two days…read moreold. I simply wanted to remove some pollen and rain, but I instantly regretted the decision. Honestly, I would have been better off leaving the car dirty. After going through the wash, my vehicle's paint was scratched and damaged. Keep in mind, this is a brand-new vehicle. I called the number provided and was told to return to the site and ask for Dan. I did that and completed a damage report, but instead of addressing the issue, I was told that my car already had "random scratches all over it." That explanation is unacceptable. The scratches were clearly caused by the car wash equipment. Other customers have reported similar issues, which raises serious concerns about the condition of the machinery being used. What's even more disappointing than the damage itself is the lack of accountability and poor customer service. Rather than taking responsibility or properly investigating the issue, the situation was dismissed.

    An ok car wash that gets the job done. Pricing is a bit higher, but becomes quite reasonable if you…read morechoose to do the subscription, though you do need other give 7 days notice to cancel minimum, good thing is though that it is still valid until the end of billing cycle so do with that what you will. One downside imo of their subscription is that while it is 1 wash a day, it is limited to a single vehicle. The quality of wash is also ok. One thing I do appreciate is that they offer both the standard with spinning brushes and touchless at all tiers (also that undercarriage wash is included in pretty much all tiers of wash). Quick note about the touchless, it is ok for maintenance if you dont have any actual dirt or salt or dust on your car as it does nothing to remove any of that, just has barely any pressure and misses plenty of spots. Now, with that said, I have tried both (the former on accident), and even at the highest tier with the graphene whatever they offer, it is just ok. From a distance it is ok, but it doesn't get all parts, and up close there are plenty of missed spots. On top of that, the finish just simply does not last, at all, all the benefits like beading and water stain resistance are barely there to begin with and quickly disappear after a couple days and even the gloss starts diminishing a good amount. The workers, while kind, can at times be fairly rough with the brush they use to sort of prewash/soak the car, or windows only if you specify, before you roll into the tunnel, almost just banging it around your car and honestly scaring me a tad as to the potential damage they may be doing. With this said, they are fairly accommodating if you ask them to only use the brush on glass, do touches, etc. Afterwards they have bays available with vacuums. The vacuums, I adored, just fantastic pressure and cleaning up everything, also avail be in both the narrow and broad tip to both get into the nooks and crannies or clean larger swaths. In addition there is pressurized air with a nozzle available which is fantastic, great at getting rid of grit or just dirt in hard to reach/clean areas. they also have carts available with spray bottles of interior or glass cleaner, and stacks of supposedly clean microfiber towels and a bin to dispose them in once used. Now I say supposedly and they claim they are fresh, but recently every time I use them they leave behind a musty, almost mildewy scent inside my car. Now it goes away fairly quickly, but it is coming from either the spray or the towels, either way, not great. The towels have also felt a bit damp a couple times ive grabbed them and im unsure if this is on them, or just other customers restacking them instead of tossing used ones into the bin.

    We have been to this car wash a few times with no issue. However, on January 5, we visited and paid…read morefor our usual car wash. After coming out, I found that the car wash had left significant scratches on the passenger side of the hood continuing towards the passenger door. Another gentleman had the same scratches in a similar place on his car, and he also went through a similar experience as I lay out in this review. I immediately alerted the staff on site. They had 2 teenagers working who could not have cared less. After about 40 minutes, we finally got a manager on the phone, who had us fill out a form to report the damage. I submitted the form and emailed it to the manager. Within a week, I obtained an estimate to fix the damage for about $500. I provided that by email to the manager. What followed was the most unprofessional series of events I've ever experienced. The manager essentially ghosted me. No response after multiple emails. No follow up from corporate. I waited until today to attempt to receive a response, but I'm fed up with waiting and am posting this review in hopes that Whistle Express corporate steps in to make this right. Do not take your car to this car wash. If their wash damages your car, you will never hear from them again in getting the damage fixed.

They do a good job here at keeping towels available and checking in with personal service. Also, like their app for quick access into the wash.
