I brought my car in for seat shampooing and a VIP service package. While I understand this wasn't a…read morefull detailing, my car was already in relatively clean condition, having been washed just a few weeks prior by my dealership--which, unfortunately, did a far better job than what I received here. The exterior wash was very disappointing. The car looked barely cleaned, and the roof in particular was still visibly dirty, as if it hadn't been washed at all. Given that I paid extra for the seat shampooing in addition to the VIP service, I expected at least a basic level of thoroughness, which simply wasn't delivered. I'm especially frustrated because I chose to support a local business, but the experience felt unprofessional and ultimately not worth the time or money. I even spoke with a manager, who was courteous and respectful, and worked to address the situation--which I did appreciate. However, it's frustrating to have to go through this after already paying for the service. To make matters worse, after returning home, I noticed that the front mount of my license plate had been damaged. While I understand that accidents can happen, this only added to my overall disappointment given the rest of the experience. Overall, I feel like I could have done a better job myself. Unfortunately, this experience has led me to decide that I won't be returning.

Had passed by this place and I needed a car wash so I pulled over real quick to get a quick wash…read more The place was pretty efficient. Taking off one star, cause I'm not sure if it's a hand wash place and I would like my car to be a hand wash spot when getting it done professionally. Other than that, the place wasn't too busy so I was able to get in and out pretty fast and the price was reasonable. There's also a Groupon! If you want an oil change you get a wash with it too for an even more reasonable price.

You can tell he takes pride in what he does. I also noticed he protects his hearing by wearing ear plugs, which shows he works safely and professionally. It really stood out because some other staff looked bored or annoyed, but Ethan was the complete opposite. He was alert, friendly, and made the whole experience more pleasant. Frank wasn't there today, but he also always offers service with a smile whenever I see him. Great customer service from both of them. Highly recommended.

Shout out to Sal Alanis and Frank Thomson at Fast5Xpress Car Wash!…read moreSal is a young man, and let me tell you -- exceptional service, well spoken, respectful, and truly helpful. I don't know what it is these days, but this is becoming a dying breed. Young, professional, and genuine. It honestly cheered me up to see that we still have some good ones out there. God bless you, Sal! And then there's Mr. Frank -- a God-fearing man who just received Employee of the Month (no surprise at all). I was wondering where his joy came from... now I understand. His spirit, attitude, and work ethic speak for themselves. I don't know what these guys are getting paid, but I do know this -- they are exceptional employees. I own a business myself, and these are exactly the kind of people I would want representing my brand. This car wash is clearly blessed because they have workers full of joy, integrity, and helpfulness. That is very, very rare. Fast5Xpress Car Wash -- you guys are onto something special.

Nick & Francisco worked miracles! All but one deeper scratch was GONE, my car looked new again! Worth every penny, plus I'll try to come more regularly for sure. Grateful it was a gorgeous day, waited outside at one of the tables to watch, plus they kept me updated on status. Also, the cashier inside was super nice, and friendly. Wish I took pix!

I saw this car wash having a promotion on those mail catalog booklets and also at Albertsons Arcadia. I saw that the prices were competitive against the other local car washes (faschings and temple city car wash). So I took my bmw x1 to Nu Way. My first impression is..ok it's a mom and pop business. What I love about these old car washes is that they have windows that show you your car being washed. But this one does not clean their windows and you really can't see what they're doing. I then went into the cashier/store area. Really gives me a 1970s vibe. But the ceiling tiles were bulging/swollen like when it last rained, the roof was leaking. So far so...ok, I was waiting for my car and then I went outside to the patio where I think there used to be a fountain but they covered it up. When my car came out of the car wash the rear tow hitch cover was missing. I thought that they remove it but after a while my gut feeling says I have to ask where the cover is. The guy who was wiping down my car said, "I don't know, ask the guys". So I went to the cashier and told them about the missing tow hitch. I then spoke to the shift supervisor and he was asking the guys where it is. No luck. Then the shift supervisor referred me to the GM, Nick. First thing that he said, "you probably came in without it". Wow, gaslighting. I can't believe the customer service skills of this guy. I told him that if he doesn't believe me, I got a video with a time stamp with me coming out of my house 15 mins before I arrived to the car wash (cuz it takes that long). He doesn't care, so he went to the video cameras in his office. Lo and behold when my car appeared for the first time in the car wash, the rear tow hitch is still there at the bumper. And then we followed the car where it goes then sometime in the middle of the car wash line the rear tow hitch cover is still there. But it's weird the car came out without it The rear tow hitch cover has a string, so it can be attached to the bumper. Its hard for it to come off unless you pull it. Nick said, "oh maybe you went to the cheap car washes in the area and that's how it got damaged bad". Look who's talking. And also, of all the car washes I went to with my car, this has to happen. And it's a 2025 bmw. If I went to a cheap car wash, you would see scratches on the clear coat. And that's not how you treat a BMW So Nick was checking out my bumper, seeing if there's a tear on the clips. He said the clips are loose. GTFO of here. I think one of their washers stole it (cuz it's nowhere to be found in the car wash line) to either stole it to sell on eBay or to just shaft it to the owner. He agreed to replace the tow hitch cover and I went on my way. He called me on my cell and he'll be in touch with me. It was nice, at least to have some sense of customer service. Went to BMW monrovia and see how much it is. $40.16. not bad. BMW monrovia is another dealer that's gaslighting especially when I rent their cars (because back then my bmw needed more than one day to service) but that's another day. Got the tow hitch replaced (reason for 2 stars). Now the question is, would i come back? Naaaahhh never ever. If you will be going to this car wash, just know the risks, especially if you got an expensive car. When I was there, didn't see premium cars and I learned from now on, this would be a red flag.

Very Disappointing Experience I paid $50 for a car wash…read moretoday and ended up having to clean the car again myself. There was soap residue left all over the exterior, so I basically had to wipe the entire car down after the service. The interior was even worse. The interior dressing was over-applied, leaving the doors drenched and greasy, and it wasn't evenly applied at all. Instead of a clean finish, I had to wipe off excess dressing just to make the interior look acceptable. For the price, I expected much better quality and attention to detail. Overall, a very disappointing experience and not worth the cost.

Drove up to the kiosk where you get to choose what option yourself without an attendant. I chose the single wash Platinum VIP which was $16 -- not that cheap but pretty standard price. Got to the start of the tunnel where usually they prewash your car, although this time I had only 1 guy who just sprayed my car for a few seconds and sent me through the tunnel already. Finished the tunnel, but noticed at the end where the machine typically blow dries your car, my car came out soaking wet from all the windows. When I went to park to vacuum, I noticed the machine actually did not do a good job of drying most of my car. Luckily I had a microfiber towel in my trunk and in which I had to give it a good sweep. Side note, these vacuums were one of the strongest vacuums I've ever used in any drive through car wash. It was so strong I accidentally sucked up one of my USB cables straight from its port and couldnt retrieve it back. Might have been more of my fault though for not paying attention to where I was vacuuming. Be warned for your small and loose items. Overall, not the best drive through car washes I've been to. But also, it was a pretty quick in and out so I guess I can't really complain much.

There was a lot of discoloration from my repeated sunblock use and they were able to remove it all. I requested the CPR detail package, which was $180, and it was so worth it! The interior and exterior were well taken care of and I was given a 40 minute heads-up call for when the car would be done. This gave me plenty of time to head over since I live out of town.

StreamDrive was willing to provide an estimate with the details provided in messaging, unlike the other companies who contacted me! Every other businesses' response boiled down to, "bring your car in and we'll look at it." The old entrapment model of auto detailing. Where they're counting on you not having the willpower to leave if the work has already begun. Luke at StreamDrive was able to accommodate my current situation and offered to swing by and see the condition of my car in-person and provide the quote. By default, that's 5-stars "above and beyond" service. I want to recommend his business to people for life! My Honda C-RV needed prep for resale. StreamDrive really went in and did some disinfecting, were able to remove lingering odors, got the leather restored, restored the headlights, and even performed a trim restore so this 2013 car looks really fresh! I wasn't expecting to write a review for this auto detailing service, so I don't have any "before" photos. I'm sorry about that, it's not an ideal situation for a glowing restoration review. I'm not so comfortable sharing pictures of my personal vehicle in the first place, you know what I mean? My pics just look like a super clean car. You can't tell it was ever damaged! $400 all-in inside-and-out restoration, under the hood, even buffing out some minor scuffs and scrapes it looks like, as well as painting/restoring the sun-faded plastic panels all around the vehicle: that's a value. No gap left untouched, unlike a drive-thru detailing service. I'm getting return on investment and then some because I'm now able to sell at top dollar private party fair market value.
