After spending a year using another car wash I gave Merced Mall Car Wash a shot and the difference is night and day. I was tired of driving through a car wash then getting out and wiping off excess water. For the same price my car gets a fantastic cleaning and care. You get a fantastic clean car, for an extra $5 they wipe down interior and give it a once over. They also offer detailing and anything else you may need. The entire team takes pride in caring for your vehicle. I've ditched those drive thru car washes and water spots for a thorough wash and dry.. I've spent time talking to "Mason" the owner about his business, he's one of the only car washes that has gone completely GREEN..That's impressive. The customer service here is above and beyond, from Mason (the owner ) to every employee that keeps this operation running smoothly.. read more

Took my car through the Merced mall car washed. I paid for the deluxe with extra vacuuming after getting into my car. I had to take it back through a second time because the interior was not done. This is pictures of the interior second time around only reason I gave a one star is because the gentleman at the front desk was very kind. Not to mention I paid $60 for this. read more

I've had a monthly membership with them since July 2025. I take my car there 1-2 times per month. This last Saturday I took my car there she walked to Target while it was being washed. I came back my car was finished. When I got the keys and went to open the door part of the handle was broken. I spoke to the guy at the front desk who told me the car was already damaged. Granted, there was a scratch but the handle wasn't broken. The only solution he offered was to take it to a guy he knows who has a shop and they'll fix the cable if that's what was broken, however the shop is open Monday they Friday. I work out of town Monday thru Friday and explained it to him. There was no other remedy offered. Turns out, I now have to replace the entire handle. If you value your property, do not take it there. They will run it and not take accountability read more

I would come here for my truck to be cleaned most often the management is cool and they do a decent job of cleaning my truck. Stopped in today and I (as always) told the fella I have whitewall tires and they need to be cleaned scrubbed before it goes into the washer. When they whistled for my truck to be done I told the fella hey my tires aren't clean. This cat gonna swell up on me and say "talk to the manager" and walked away. I will NOT come back here and my wife will NOT come back here! I will tell everyone in Merced not to go here! Ol' boy was rude and not nice! This one fella has completely shattered whatever else I felt about the management and other workers here. Look at the pic the tire is not cleaned, and I paid for tire cleaning read more

Horrible experience the interior job was sloppy and unprofessional . For 35$ not worth it.

Been a faithful customer for over 20 years, paid for the works $40.00 and I could have done a better job with a spritz bottle!!! Absolute rip off won't be going back very sad if this is representative of what Merced Mall Carwash has become they won't exist much longer. I would rate them ZERO Stars. I have photos if anyone is interested. read more

Went there on 12/15/25 at around 3-4pm. All was well until I received my car back from them. The front left wheel gained 1-2 new curb rashes while my front left tire looks like it got stabbed into my some extremely large and sharp object til the point where I can see my tire cords inside. Do not recommend this business if you have a car that has large wheels and low profile tires. At least the price is eh and the staff service is "nice"right. (There's always that one person always on the phone). read more

While waiting for my car to be srviced, I tried asking the manager some questions about their routines, he just started berating me saying i should have asked about that when I chose service options with the clipboard guy, i didnt want to keep him tied up with details because there was cars still waiting. Never got any inquires answered. read more

They don't do the job right the first time customer service is bad Rude car was return dirty read more

Save your money and do it yourself you're probably do a better job. I paid for the highest option and I might as well just washed my car through the car wash. They were supposed to clean inside and they literally missed every spot they could've. It looks like they close their eyes to clean the car. The people inside were really nice but it's just not worth it. Sorry. read more

I hesitated going here because years ago my parents had their sunglasses stolen. I'm assuming an old employee. I chose to go here because for the unlimited plan they vacuum, wash your mats, scrub your car, you get wax, they hand dry your car, and wipe it on the inside. My vehicle looks brand new every time. I feel it's a great quality and have recommended to a few people. read more

They staff is friendly. They do a good job cleaning my car inside and out. I wish they would vaccum alittle better in the back area

Giving a bad review is definitely not something I like to do, I understand Maybe the owners are not at fault but overlooking the lazy workers should be top priority for them, $35 to wash my wife's brand new car they vacuumed it for maybe two and a half minutes they dried it off for maybe maybe 4 minutes parked it off to the side i was irritated so just started drying it myself, their employees absolutely hate their jobs they can care less about your car save your money you can wash it better yourself in 10 minutes how this place gets a good review is beyond me my guess is it's hit or miss it's only been missed for me, good luck to anyone that goes there. read more

I love to supply locally owned and operated establishments and this car wash has been my go to for years. They always do a great job at getting my car clean and shiny both inside and out. They do pay good attention room to detail and get you back on the road as quickly as possible. The owner and employees have always been friendly and courteous even when it's blazing hot outside which I'm sure can be hard. read more

While visiting in merced I figured I'd get a car wash.. typical run of the mill experience until I got in my car and my BASS wasn't working.. I reached for my knob only to find the whole knob including circuit board had been ripped out.. wires exposed and everything... this means that whoever was inside my car knew they had damaged it severely and didn't say anything and even threw away the housing unit and knob and part of the circuit board which probably was as big as a credit card.... I am mediately returned furious and the manager was very nonchalant and dismissive.. disclaimer: he did immediately acknowledge that they committed the damage.. but he was very unsympathetic in a matter of fact about it and his exact quote was "shit happens".. instead of having me go to a local stereo shop in Merced, he wanted to order the part on Amazon then have me go to the stereo shop and have it installed... THIS WAS A WEDNESDAY.... i'm posting this on Saturday and I called him this morning and he said the parts still had not come in yet... that makes no sense whatsoever, not only does it not take this long for a part to come in from Amazon, if he really cared about me as a customer he would've just called the stereo shop here in Merced made an appointment to have the part rewired and installed in my car... they did not offer me any compensation, they did not even offer me a free car wash.... I will be revising this review because if I do not get the same Kenwood part and he ordered some third rate cheap part from Amazon my next step will be going to small claims court... and not only will I be suing for my part and labor to install it, which I got an estimate of $325 at the local stereo shop... i will be suing for me not being able to use my radio for almost a week ... and i have a pre planned trip to the coast with no music now... STAY TUNED ! read more

Merced Mall Car Wash - Front knob ripped off along with the housing unit circuit boards broken in half and wires exposed. They broke my car - Car Wash Near Me - Merced, California

I really prefer giving businesses a boost but this place is absolutely rediculous!!! took my truck in left with a mirror that was scraped on something and the inside of the truck looking like it was wiped with a dirty towel. it literally looks worse than it was when I went in. I get the whole at your own risk not responsible for damages, I will deal with that but what I will also do is let everyone I know what a horrible job they do there!!!! read more

Well unfortunately the bad reviews aren't off base. Their full interior cleaning service, a $275 price tag isn't anywhere worth it, attention to detail just isn't in their vocabulary. Doesn't help one of my mud flaps broke in their car wash either... For $100 I would say they did a decent job, the seats and carpet is cleaner than it was before, but for $275 I'm going to try blocking this experience out... Cannot recommend. They had my truck for just under 6 hours, and I can only wonder as to what they were doing with it given all the spots they missed (cracks, crevices, headliner, interior consoles, cup holders, etc). Unfortunately "like new" means different to them. Just disappointed. If you're looking for a simple surface cleaning feel free to check them out, but don't come here looking for quality. My mistake for giving them a chance and not just doing it myself (surprise I still have to! Yay!). All the bad reviews, despite some being ridiculous and not the car washes fault, are a good representation of the quality of the business. It's a solid 3 star business. And for those that may think I should show photos to prove; enjoy their service, give them the benefit of the doubt like I did, and see how you feel at the end. I don't care enough to provide more than my word. I'm not angry at them, only myself. Workers are nice and polite. They just don't have experience. I'm sure what they did for me is better than their normal $40 service, doesn't make it worth anywhere near what they charge. read more

Came in yester morning looking to detail my truck. The manager was very attentive and assured me that my vehicle would leave looking like it just came off the showroom floor. I was amazed at how good the detail came out. Will be returning again. read more

When I arrived to get my car cleaned (inside and out)I spoke to one of the guys working and I asked him if someone would be able to clean a certain area on one of my seats as it was very dirty he said "sure no problem." As I'm waiting on my car I see an employee publicly bullying another employee. Calling him all sorts of profanities. Very unprofessional and uncalled for. They tell me my car is ready, I open my car door and realize they didn't clean the area I informed them about upon arrival. I didn't bother to tell them as I needed to leave. Very very rude and unprofessional employees who hate their job. Don't recommend. read more

Took my car in today to Huss & they did a amazing job ! My car literally looks brand new , totally recommend this place ! They Washed my car. Did the Waterspot removal off the windows, the paint, door jams. Waxed the outside of it. Shampooed seats and floor, scrub down all the door panels, cup holders, dash... shined all my door panels and dash up. Cleaned the windows inside and out and shined the tires and wheels up. read more

I have tried many different car wash companies and not one of them has exceeded my expectations and this one is not any different. I wash my car myself weekly usually by hand and detail interior every two weeks. Well I decided to try something new and go to the Merced Mall Car Wash I paid for the "The Works" carwash which is the highest option available. So let me list the options under this selection: Full Service Air Freshener Tire Shine Wheels Cleaned Rainbow Wax Carnuba Wax Cherry Glo Dash Gloss Rubber Mats Washed Ok, so when I see "Full Service" I think great they will vacuum out my entire vehicle and do minor detailing to interior (i.e seats, dash, doors, windows, floor mats). So when I first inspect the vehicle the car looks clean, quick glance you on the inside looks good but not great. Well they totally missed my trunk, they lightly dusted and I mean very lightly dusted my dash and center console and stereo, they smeared this what I would assume to be dash glow, but it was very spotty. The leather seats where not cleaned, the backs seats weren't even wiped down, and my floor mats weren't even taken out and washed, I can guarantee they didn't even remove the mats to vacuum under them. Anyways I could go on and on but I will post the pictures. I would not recommend this place to anyone, over priced and does not deliver on what they offer!! read more

Not my favorite place to wash my car in Merced. I paid more to get it washed properly. Could've done it myself and saved my money.

Just got back from this place.. one star is too high of a rating for the service I've received in the last 2 times I've been there. I should have done a walk around and look through my car before I left but I was too pressed on time. Bugs are still on front bumper and license plate. Window have streaks, wasn't vacuumed thoroughly, seats, doors, steering wheel were not wiped down. I took a baby wipe and wiped just look at the pictures. Just a horrible job. Oh and my car did not smell like "piña colada" paid for a deluxe $20 for nothing!! Never again!!! Don't take your car there.. read more

Horrible. Paid 25 bucks my car is 2018 not to dirty and they left black marks on both side by front tires sloppy wipe down inside. They messed up my screen looks like it's 20 years old now can't fix it unless I pay dealer to change it. Owner tried to tell me it's from my nails ( I'm a female). This is my second car of exact same model my other one never had these marks on my screen. Never. This new car DID NOT have these marks on it prior to me going in. But are there now. Owner not going to do anything about it so small claims here we come!! If you care even a little bit about your car or your money. DO NOT GO HERE. YOU WILL BE SORRY. read more

I am really shocked to see all of these negative comments for merced mall car wash . I use to wash my car at every car wash in merced and I always find myself coming back. The young lady in the cash register she is always so kind and sweet and always willing to greet with a smile she so friendly answer any questions and concerns I have . Plus these people put in the hard work to hand dry and wash and vacuum something we sometimes don't have time doing someone else so doing it for us even if we are paying them. it's crazy of what people expect out of it . you get what you pay here and I can honestly say they are trustworthy I left money in my car and all my money was in my car when I got it back to be honest I was shocked if it would have been any other car wash let's be honest wouldn't have been in my car . The young people so friendly to and polite these people are hard working take pride at what they do . I love coming here and please don't get discourage they are amazing at what they do their is no other car wash that will leave your car nice and dry and clean. I am a happy customer 2 years read more

I will say the outside of the car looks nice but and it does looks vacuumed but the inside looks as if they didn't touch it. Actually there was some shiny stuff half wiped onto some of the dash. I had to ask for them to vacuum the trunk which the guy at the beginning did tell me, so I said yes I want you to clean it. Checked it and it wasn't done. They did it after I asked the second time. That time they literally had the car in the drive ready to go. I drove off and noticed that it wasn't as clean as I thought it was going to be. Got home to take a closer look, I paid $65 dollars. Come on I understand that you have to tell them if they missed something but they're a car wash. They're supposed to actually try to clean it. I had a bad experience but I guess just be firm and make sure to triple check everything. My sister bought a used car and I wanted to have it cleaned for her. read more
