    Car exterior looks new
    Stefan T.

    Went in today Sept 14 2025 10 minutes before closing and was very impressed with the high level of service and care given to my car. My car was in desperate need of some cleaning. I would get in and think 'this needs some scrubbing with some war soapy water.' Fresh it was no more and I did all I could - probably just smearing dirt in circles. They have high power extraction for interiors and specific cleaning products for specific problems. I was very impressed with the results - it was all clean rather than just covered up with a spritz of air freshener. Interior work was incredible. It became a place I wanted to be again. Exterior was equally impressive. The paint on my car looked showroom new again. Wheels and tires and everything just perfectly shiny. I've got the Quick Quack subscription - but I haven't been all month and when you go there you have to do all the work yourself anyway. Drying, interior cleaning - most of the man power is done by yourself... Its on auto pay with a credit card - but its gotten so bad with long lines I might just rethink all that. Had to get some professional help today - and I really loved the high level of service.

    Wanted to try a different spot for a car wash. Since this was right next to AAA, I wanted to give it a try. I'm very glad I tried this place out because my car turned out spotless. They are in the higher price range but the results shows for it. I got their lowest package which I think was $40 but they also charged me extra for having an SUV. Anyways, don't expect to go in and out of this place quickly since that is not the service they offer. I would say give yourself 30 to 60 minutes, depending on which package you choose. But I can definitely say, the work was good and they take their time to really wipe down your car. They make sure there are no wet spots and are very detailed. The area was clean, and the whole process was smooth. Highly recommend them.

    Only 3$ more for deluxe but she charged extra for crv.

    The waiting area is outdated and had flies. The lady charged me 3.00$ extra for my crossover saying it's an suv. She could have warned me when checking in vs when paying. She initially rang me up at 39.99. Even when they weren't cleaning my trunk bc I had all my work equipment in there. I came on a Thursday and it was very empty but still took about 1 hr to get the car cleaned. Plan accordingly.

    Business sign. It's baaaaccckkkk!

    For local residents like myself, this really was the go-to car wash in the Hayward area if you wanted a hand wash (mostly-"touchless") option where there's nothing slapping your car's paint and dragging debris all over its surface. And after almost 2+ years of closure, it's back and under new ownership! Prices are higher than they were under previous ownership a few years ago, but what HASN'T gotten more expensive these past few years anyway? And it's pretty comparable to other full service hand wash / touchless car washes elsewhere in the area. I opted for the Deluxe Wash, which appears to be everything in their entry level Full Service Wash package plus some extra sealant product sprayed by the machine. When the wash was complete, they used compressed air to blow away excess water, then hand dried the exterior and door jams. And they did spray and wipe the interior dash and trim and all windows, which I've discovered is NOT always included at some washes, so it was nice that the interior wipe was included rather than at extra cost. I'm also happy to see some Meguair's products in use. If you've ever detailed your own car, you have at least heard of Meguiar's or used their products. And while some will debate their marketing claims or the quality of their products vs others, at the end of the day their products will generally do what they're marketed to do. It was very quiet and not busy at all on a summer Monday early afternoon, but I suspect that has a lot to do with people not even knowing it's open again. Time will tell if they can bring back the volume of business they used to have, but I'm rooting for them!

    How great of the car wash is

    The washes are good and very worth it but there off line wash is not worth it they charged 64 off line wash it's expensive and tbh there's cheaper other place that would do hand wash . The staff and mangement are super chill but has far the off track wash I do go else where the business it's really great and welcoming 10 they make your car look brand new

    Didn't clean my rims all the way as well as other areas of the car. Paid for the top-tier car wash.. didn't give me the new car sent from my car. Sadly, I don't think there's any good car washes out there remaining. However, I did give them a three because I do believe they did a better job than most of the other car washes that I've been to. I have my car washed by someone else because I don't wanna deal with cleaning the rims and cleaning the inside. It's the whole point of me taking it to a car wash. We have everything at home because my dad refuses to take his cars to a car wash due to the fact that they use dirty rags and scratch up your paint. I did leave a $10 tip. But I've told myself going forward if I have to tell them about my rims at all I'm not leaving anything. I did tell the gentleman about my rims. He wiped down one little spot and ignored all the rest. For the people who say it's a hard job I work a hard job too. I worked hard to get where I am, but you know what I do my job with ethics and values. In fact, I go above and beyond for my patients. I've had people who assume or act as if my job is easy and it was handed to me because I make good money. Those people are entitled and lazy.. again I did give them a three and all other places I've given a one. Some of the worst car washes are actually out in the more well to do areas. If you don't drive in with a luxury vehicle, they treat you like you less then. I drive a $50,000 SUV but again it's not a luxury SUV. Can someone open a good old-fashioned car wash that doesn't rip you off please?

    The overall wash was half the effort. Why are the car washes in the Bay Area gone to horrible quality? The picture alone speaks volume for how there is absolutely zero attention to detail. It is worth noting the picture was taken after the truck was apparently done on their end. I also paid for the most expensive package.

    Poor workmanship, left with 8 dirty areas on the body and rims. Even worse customer service. Paid $26. Cheng said he MAYBE give a $5 discount my next visit IF he's there when I visit. Looks like it's time for me to try the car wash on Soto and Jackson

    Soda STILL ON THE INTERIOR.
    Tiffany B.

    So I advised the manager upon arrival that I had been assaulted and the person poured soda on me as I was standing by my car!!! They failed to properly clean the area as you can see in the photos. I also had to clean my window several times. Not happy. Would be a 0 star but can't.

    Jenna N.

    Employees are hardworking and do the best they can to accommodate all vehicles coming in. If you arrive in the morning close to opening you won't need to wait 1-2 hours. People coming in the evening who complain about the long wait time should take this into consideration. My car is always clean interior and exterior. I have no complaints about this establishment. If you want fast service then maybe you should NOT get your car HAND WASHED! Consider going to a drive through car wash instead.

I paid for an interior only service and will definitely book them again in the future and recommend to my friends and family in the area! 10/10 and so worth it!! (I will post better pictures!)

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. The wrap job is best in the Bay, everything is so tucked, no one believes it's wrapped. I have to open the doors to show them. The finish is incredible. The staff are top notch professionals. Seamlessly functioning, capable and knowledgeable. Joe, the owner, is really good at describing exactly how things will turn out. Very helpful when in getting the exact look you want the on the first try. And very passionate about doing it perfectly. Also experts in vinyl, tinting and ceramic coating.

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.

The technicians are hard working and delightful, in particular Christian. 5 stars for Christian. I don't think he is with this company any more though. If only scheduling had been the only challenge. Scheduling is unreliable, as you've seen in multiple other reviews. Three reschedules at the last minute. This is not the company to use if you have a deadline or event. Paolo offered a written scope of work, including the unambiguous "Our steam and hot extraction and removal service of stains, liquid spills, has no additional cost, it is courtesy of our company." Screenshots provided. This was not communicated to the technicians, who did not have the appropriate steam extraction equipment when they arrived. I reasonably expected the owner to send them back at a less busy time to complete the agreed upon written scope of work and at which time I would pay on completion. Nope. You can see here in the follow up messaging Paolo said the cost of the work as he had promised would be $190 more, providing justification for the cost with information he already had prior to creating the quote offer in the first place. He had the size of the vehicle, the location, and my explicit priority for deep shampoo of an older used high mileage vehicle. I also re-communicated this multiple times each time of the last minute reschedule. I am at a loss as to what I as a client could have done for better communication. This is frustrating most of all because at the time of updating this review, he is punishing his hardworking team for his mistake and I am of the impression they were fired.

They've been serving the Hayward community for years, and after my experience, I can definitely understand why. My Kia Soul had just come out of the repair shop after being there for 54 days due to vandalism, so the car really needed some extra attention. The team did an outstanding job. When they finished, my car looked almost brand new again. The paint was shining, the wheels and tires looked great, the windows were spotless, and they paid attention to all of the little details. They cleaned the car so well that I could actually see some of the small scratches and imperfections that had been hidden before. That tells you how thorough the job was. What really stood out to me was the customer service. Everyone was friendly, positive, professional, and you could tell they genuinely cared about the vehicle and the quality of their work. It didn't feel rushed or like I was just another car coming through. The atmosphere was also clean and comfortable, with seating where you can relax while your car is being taken care of. I'm attaching pictures because the results speak for themselves. If you're in Hayward, San Leandro, Union City, Fremont, or anywhere nearby, I highly recommend Hayward Car Wash. Great service, great attention to detail, friendly people, and a team that truly cares about your car. Five stars all day. If I could give them 10 stars, I definitely would. I'll absolutely be back.

Israel buffed them off and then placed a special film on it to protect it, so I won't have that issue again. As always, he is meticulous with the interior cleaning. I'm OCD but he surpasses me lol. All this white glove treatment and the price is quite reasonable. For little more than the cost of 3 automated car washes, you too can get your vehicle looking like new and cleaned within an inch of its life. The feeling of driving such a spotless car is so worth it. If you love your cars and take pride in keeping them well maintained, G1 is the place to bring them.
