Had a horrible wash. my car was still dirty after paying for the $13 wash. I dont know if i did something wrong but this was a first time being here and wasnt really happy with the outcome. read more

A family member recommended this spot to me, and overall, it was a great experience but I highly recommend coming early. I showed up around noon on a Saturday and the line was already backed up onto the street. It made me a little nervous since cars were coming in pretty close from both directions. The actual wash itself was solid quick and got the job done. They do accept Apple Pay at the wash, which is super convenient! But just a heads-up: the vacuums only take cash or card swiping, so be prepared if you plan to use them. Also, the vacuum and drying areas were completely full when I went, so again, another reason to beat the crowd and come early if you can. I'll definitely be back, just with better timing next time! read more

This was a pretty nice self service car wash. I went because it's close by my work. The cost was not too bad. I believe it was five dollars for 10 minutes which I was able to rinse, soap, scrub, and rinse again within those 10. Which I think is not too bad. Only thing I recommend is bringing your own microfiber towel because the drying feature sucks and you won't have enough time to dry it unless you buy another 10 minutes. But it was fast and easy for a reasonable price. Also quick explanation on the settings: do not use the high-pressure setting on your car if you do not want the paint to chip. If you do use high pressure setting, please step 3-4 feet away from your car. Just make sure the nozzle is not as close as 15 inches from your car cause then you'll chip the paint. For me, I used the high pressure wash because my car was superrrr dirty and I had no problem with the chipped paint as other reviewers are saying. You have to stay within reasonable distance and at a 20-40° angle. But overall, I believe this self service car wash is excellent! read more

The drive through car wash just hoses down your car with soapy water. Doesn't clean it whatsoever. The grass on the side of my car didn't even get washed off. Waste of money. I haven't the self service in years because the brushes are too hard for the paint and scratches the car. Regardless this place still seems to be popular. Never coming here again. read more

I only frequent this business for their drive thru car wash with water jets. I get the deluxe car wash @ 7.00. The quality is decent, no issues. I usually get back home and finish drying it since the timed dryer doesn't do a thorough job. I only hope one day the pay machine gets updated, it needs to be higher off of the ground, when driving up to it, give yourself some space so you'll be able to use without any problem. read more

A favorite spot for me to wash my car... Prices are decent. Sometimes it can get crowded but that means others like it too, right? :) They have a drive thru wash for under $10. The blower does a decent job compared to others I've been through. There are plenty of vacuums, stationed in the front and rear of the lot. Lost of settings in the washing area on the machines. read more

PBS Self Service Car Wash - "USA Car Wash" - Car Wash Near Me - Riverside, California

Love coming here, the equipment is always great, along with reasonable pricing. Only downfall it's always busy but still worth going.

Most fun I've had in weeks! I highly recommend going with a friend for your first few times! The $5 for 12 minutes is what we got! As soon as the money went in, I started with the tires; spray on the foamy soap and then scrub it down. Next, a rinse off of my car's body. Then, the magic begins with the soap cycles and blasting water to was everything clean. Here is where my friend turned the knob and then hid, so that I wouldn't spray him down. Perhaps if there were guard-walls around the car... And I wish there was a giant blow dryer to dry the car instead of that... line where you can vacuum or wipe the car clean. Overall, this was fun and I had a blast! ... literally! read more

I love this car wash because it has the jets to wash my car without scratching it! I love that it's 24 hours!

It's been awhile since I've visited but my car really needed a good clean. Days where I don't have that much time, I'll go through the drive thru car wash. I used to use my Venmo card and choose the $7 car wash and they used to charge me only $5 but they finally fixed it LOL. But besides that, today I came to do a good ol do-it-yourself wash. The prices remain the same and by reading the more newer reviews, I chose to use cash instead of card in case I would get scammed. I definitely recommend having someone come with you to help clean your car if you want to only spend $5 for 12 minutes. When I'm alone, I tend to spend more time meaning I tend to spend just a little bit more money to clean my car. I love the little vending machines in the back where you can purchase car fresheners and even towels to dry your car. The vacuums are pretty strong in sucking up the dirt in your car. I wish it was a little but stronger though in. There's a change machine to exchange cash into coins if needed. I recommend that for the vacuums to use cash instead of card in case. Overall, pretty good car wash. I docked off a star from my previous review because there's no one you can contact if there's any issues at all. they also need to fix their machines so people won't get overcharged. The only temporary solution is just use cash at this car wash. Better safe than sorry! read more

Overall the hands free automated wash is good but not the price of what you pay that's about it I just wish it would reflect the price

Car wash part works perfect but my card got skimmed and charged for $3500 use cash not card at this place

PBS just installed a new replacement drive thru automated car wash. Whatever cleaning & waxing agents are being used, it produces better reduction of water spots and enhanced shine. My truck was in need of a proper detail using clay and buffer, but with this new system, I can honestly say I'll be back month after month to maintain or even extend the time between car waxing. Keep using whatever you're using. Love the lights too. read more

I hada few minutes so, I went 2 vacuum out tha ride, there wuz no w8 & the equipment worked well...

I've been coming to this wash for years. Recently they doubled the price of their auto wash and it does a worse job than before. The machine has also over charged me more than once and there is never any contact info or anyone on site to help. Besides that, their card payment system has been broken for several months. I can't justify coming here any longer. read more

Amazing value and also location! Went on a Sunday afternoon and it wasn't too overpacked. The price of $5 for 12 min is one of the best values I've ever seen a manual car wash have! The soap and the rinse are really powerful which leaves your car looking extra clean. Didn't get a chance to use the tire cleaners or brush took but that is also available if need be. In addition, there's a wax spray available for adding coating and overall maintenance. read more

They now have the air fry option on all their bays. I used to have to go all the way to San Bernardino to wash my car because they had no air dry. Definitely recommend this place now. read more

I was looking for a self-car wash and managed to find this gem right behind the university. It's a $5 charge on your card for 12 minutes but you can also pay with cash for your desired time. I find that 12 minutes is plenty of time to wash my car so $5 for a full car wash is great. I don't have to worry about a machine denting my vehicle and I can use the washing tools freely to my extent. All in all, if you love your car, I suggest washing your car yourself at this location. read more

I like this quick car wash spot because instead of washing my car with plastic rollers, it uses water jets. Sometimes I've noticed that plastic rollers in car washes are full of dirt and I think my paint is better preserved with the water only method used here. It's about $9 for the Works wash and you can sit inside your car for the 5ish minutes it lasts. read more

Came here for the second time to wash my car. First time wasn't too bad and I paid using cash. The second time I came I decided to use credit card and they ended up charging me $15 for what was supposed to be $6. It's supposed to cost $5 for 12 minutes of self service car wash. I ended up adding an additional $1 for extra time. At the end of my car wash it said $6 will be charged to my card. I just checked my activity on the card and I was charged $15! I could have gotten my car washed in the drive thru carwash for that price! Do not use your credit card here! Only stick with cash. The contact number here is disconnected and no one is available to help you if anything goes wrong. read more

I really like this place. I only go here to wash my cars since it's so cheap and so close to home. I'm just a little annoyed that recently the machine won't let you press the button to add more time. It's been forcing me to swipe my card again. This has never happened before! Not even sure what to do. I call the # and it just rings and rings. I guess leave my information? Hope they call me so I can give it better stars. - - - - UPDATE! Five stars because I was contacted promptly, was able to express my concern, and I was credited back my extra swipe! Great customer service. I'm still patronizing this place and plan to continue :) read more

This place was really clean and I only waited about 10 mins this past Sunday for a self serving car wash spot to open up. I liked how it was out in the open so as a single woman I felt safe. It's $2 for 4 mins or $5 for 12 mins. When I lived in San Bernardino, I paid $.75 for 4 mins which was awesome, so I barely had enough change to wash my car at PBS haha!! Overall, I will be returning because this place is really clean, there was a kind employee who answered my questions, and because I felt safe going there. :) read more

Quick and dirty detail on the car today. Vacuum sucks, but what else do you want it to do? Spot free rinse seems to work pretty well, we usually just drive away and it's all sparkly when we make it home. PSA: the wash stalls take CC/Debit! (Not the vacuums though) read more

This is the BEST self-car wash that I have been to. For $5, I have plenty of time to clean my car with time to spare in my 12 minute time frame. I have never been to a self car wash that had a dedicated tool to cleaning your wheels and rims. I cannot even count the times that I have been to other washes where the same brush you use on your paint is used on your rims resulting in minor scratches on my car. The water pressure of the hose is very powerful and I could probably wash my car only with spraying it. The only downside is that the spot-free rinse is total bull crap and does not work. Other than that, I am very glad to have such a quality car wash to clean my baby!!! read more

This place is alright. Ive been here a few times for the touch less car wash and it's not bad. It gets the job done when your car is dirty. My problems with it are that when you swipe your card for the wash it charges you twice and takes a few days for it to go back on your card. My other issue is when the wash is over you drive slowly up to the air dryers but at the same time the water is still spraying out. So it doesn't really dry the car very well. read more

This is the second time to auto car wash has over charged me. The first time I paid for $7 car wash and it charged me $14 second time I purchased $5 car wash and it charged me $15 this place.is crooked and shady. Won't be going here again and I hope nobody else.does either unless you want to be stewed out of your money read more

Self-serve car wash! You wash your own car! Go at night; it's usually cooler and a lot less crowded... However, if you go during the evening, you may have the treat of someone playing music for the entire car wash (may not be your taste in music, but someone's bound to play something). Also, surprisingly, we've never been hassled by cops here. 5-stars because Riverside environment TRASHES your car- and in 3 years, this car wash has saved 4 of my cars. =] After writing this, I could have sworn I posted a review already. read more

This review is based on the automatic wash and vacuum. The automatic wash was a huge disappointment, I got the deluxe which I assumed would come with a wax coating as most loves so but it does not. Coming out, the streak free drying lasts less than 30 seconds so your car will most like still be wet and prone to dust. My car looked almost as dirty when it went in as it came out, bird drippings were still there as well. It is better to go at night time than in the day since it's 24 hours and less busy at that time. The vacuum device I would recommend but if you're using credit card, it will charge 1.50 minimum which isn't bad and nice for when you don't have quarters. read more

Very cool and fun experience washing my car at this location! Went on an early Saturday morning and it was pretty busy, I entered one of the lines with just 1 car ahead of me and within 10 minutes it was my turn! The system is easy to use, you just swipe your debit card and get 12 minutes for 5$. You can add time later by just pressing the button to spend 1$ more for 2 more minutes. The rinse is super strong and the soap is powerful and gets all over too. Free vacuums outside waiting for you when you are finished and you can buy towels as well for a couple bucks to dry your car. Would definitely come back again! read more

This place is an alright place to wash cars, the pricing is okay as well for do it yourself. The one thing that you should not do is go during the day, as it gets really crowded. Me and my friends usually go at night, have a little meet there and chat while cleaning our cars. It's a fun place. The lighting is good and the parking is spacious read more

Best Self Serving Car Wash I have ever been to. For numerous reasons. First of all its super nice and clean, there is usually an employee walking around cleaning the area. When washing your car, the system has numerous gadgets and procedures to pick from to wash your car. It has multiple Washing/Vacuuming Lanes, so even if gets packed it moves by quickly. Plenty of space to park and dry your car at your own leisure Finally if you are being Lazy, they also have a Drive-Thru Automatic Car Wash on the side. read more

Many bays and options. One caution, the Auto Wash unit breaks down and you need to call to get a refund. Wash is $2 - $10.

I LOVE this car wash!! You can use a credit car to vacuum and the hoses work great! This is my go to place.

They stole my money. Avoid this place. Read the other reviews!!! I wish I could give 0 stars. Went to the automatic wash because self-wash stations were filled up and I put in $7 for the one that cost $7 and IT RETURNED $2 and kept my $5. I drove around to the back to see if there was a supervisor or even an office but there was no one! Called the number that shows up in google maps and on here and it says it's disconnected. I left not only furious, with a DIRTY car, $2 in change (quarters), AND I WAS CHARGED $5 for all this disappointment and time lost. No wonder everyone goes to the self-wash. Such a terrible place. I wish I had avoided it entirely. read more

This is my go to place for car washing! You wash your own car, though they do have a car wash drive thru. This place is kept up nicely and always clean. The systems always work well and the power wash is indeed powerful! 5 bucks will get you 12 minutes which is more than enough time to wash your car! I always pay with my credit card and they put a hold on the card for, I think $10, but that goes away so people need to calm down. I've never been overcharged here and I always use my card. read more

This place is good! Work fast however and you'll be fine. Went Sunday morning at 8am and there were three other cars already. So I imagine it can get packed. Used the vacuums. $1 for 4 minutes. Takes about $3 to vacuum car well. read more

I literally just got out of here like 10 min ago and when I got home I noticed my BRAND NEW car was ALL SCRATCHED UP!!!!! I'm assuming it was from the brush.....my WHOLE BLACK CAR HAS VISIBLE SCRATCH MARKS ALL OVER IT!! Do not come here!!! I am going to contact the owner because my new car got extensive damage! read more

I stopped by yesterday to vacuum my car and I foolishly used my credit card to buy 4 minutes for $1.50. I checked my bank statement today and I see they charged me $15 for $1.50!!!! I'm already broke as a joke so this is ridiculous. I tried calling them but the line is conveniently disconnected. Put in a claim with my bank, so hopefully it will get resolved. I will never come back here. If you must come here, CASH ONLY. read more

Easy and fast. Trash cans available to clean out your car. Just a tad bit pricy. They have trash cans so you can clean your car.
