I've been coming to this car wash for 15 years. The service continues to decline as the prices rise. Over the past couple year about every other time I would come and purchase the "super shine" package which includes polish wax and clear coat/poly bond Rancho carwash would not apply those waxes to my vehicle. I would politely tell the guys my car didn't get waxed and they would run it back through. I'm writing this review now because this is the 4th time in a row they have not applied wax to my vehicle. This place rips people off! If you do come here make sure you watch your vehicle...if you don't you'll get ripped off. read more

Free car wash for every car oil change we did. In addition my husband has been a patron here. He likes the fact that they use Mobil brand synthetic oil for our cars. I enjoyed waiting at their tropical style waiting lounge. They also offer military discount. read more

I spent $23 today on a car wash, and the console is filthy. When I asked them about it, the guy in charge says, "oh, we don't do that". Well that's strange, because you used to, and so does every other full-service at wash in the world. I very politely told him I would not be returning. He didn't care. read more

Rancho Car Wash - This is how they left it! - Car Wash Near Me - Temecula, California

Been a long time customer of Rancho Car Wash....on a monthly program for our truck....took our Maserati In this morning for a $35 hand wash...Such a horrible job..boss at the dry area argued with me when I mentioned his guys were cleaning wheels then body of the car...scratches and dirty towel marks everywhere! Not going back! #WantMyMoneyBack. Had to fix it myself when I got home read more

We've been going to this car wash for over 20 years and it is a wonderful Temecula business to support. We've done everything from a full service detail to a car wash and oil change -- highly recommend. read more

Very disappointed with this carwash. I've been coming here for years. My wife had her Jeep done and when she got home she noticed the windows and dash where still dirty and alot of spots missed on outside. I've never had any issues before. When I said something to the cashier the next time I came in her response was Hopefully we will do better this time. I've spent alot of money for carwashes at both locations. From now on I will do it myself. Lesson learned. read more

Worst car wash I've had in this area! None of the trash in my car was taken out nor was the inside properly cleaned. Frankly, it looks like the inside was only vacuumed. I had high hopes for this place since it's always packed and down the street from my work. Such a disappointment! read more

Dam! This place never changes.... terrible customer experience! Poor guys that dry the car have no training and they're the ones that suffer because they get lame tips . You can't justify a good tip if the manager doesn't train the guys how to dry or pay attention to details. read more

Best car wash! And best oil change service too! I believe I've been to all the carwashes in the area and this one has the best service and most courteous staff! I take my vehicles here at least twice a month and I'm always very pleased with the results. Thank you Rancho Carwash! Five stars! read more

Definitely don't get a monthly membership. The quality of the wash goes down tremendously. Haven't received a satisfactory wash yet and I'm not very picky either. read more

Best car wash in town. I signed up for the unlimited program for $39!!!. I can go every day and get a REAL car wash ! Windows , vaccumed , (my kids are disgusting ), and towel dryed !! Jr is the man he will expedite your process!! People that don't wash often and then bame the car wash..is/are kinda crazy. I've seen alot of dirty cars roll in !!! DETAIL is on the side !!;) Best car wash in town I'm out in fifteen minutes. 30 years ... Wow !!! read more

HORRIBLE. Never taking my truck or car there AGAIN. $34 FOR WHAT. There was still dirt on the floorboards, dust on the interior, and the windows still looked dirty. I should have saved my money and got a better wash by rinsing it off with a hose and driving 30 mph with all the windows down. read more

If I could give them zero Stars I would. Negative Stars I would. Such a lousy staff. Such a lousy crew. From the owner to the guys who would wash dry your car off. read more

I've been coming to Rancho Car Wash ever since I moved to Temecula 5 years ago and I've noticed a steady decline in quality in that time. I've noticed at my last few visits that they don't do a thorough clean of the interior. The best you can hope for is that they wipe down the dash and the center display and vacuum the floors. My center console has a roll back cover. If this is open when they get the car, they don't pull it out and clean the cover. As for vacuum, I've had to point out to them several times when they've missed spots; one time there was obvious dog hair on the sides of the front seats (my dog likes to stand with his rear legs on the back seat and his front legs on the center console, which means his hair gets on the seats as he stands between them). My last car wash was this past Sunday. They were by no means busy -- maybe 4 other cars in the entire place. Again; the center console and cup holders were not cleaned thoroughly, still crumbs inside and the same with the door handles. My windshield still had dirty bits on it. I only paid $17 but surely I can get a better wash than this somewhere else for that price. Next time I need a car wash I will be trying a new place to find out. read more

I came in wanting a wax and wash. Thought 55.00 was a good deal bit I was wrong. They over charged me used a machine and left swirl marks on my truck. Ya they were fast but did a really bad job. Water came from my mirrors and left water spots every were. They don't use air to remove water from areas like that. Dont get ne started on the air freashner. OMG 1 little white smelly thing. What is that crap? Hell another car wash in Elsinore gives you more than 3. The girl that took my money said sorry we only give one in a rude way. I said shit keep it then.They did my front window like a child. Streaks everywhere. Just not happy here. Promised by the guy they would do a great job. That was bs. Found a better car wash with HAND wax not a machine and they charge 20.00 less. They don't leave water spots. You guys fail bad here. read more

This place is god awful. I would rather have a dirty car then have to deal with Jr again. 30 years in business and hasn't learned how to vacuum. Please read the reviews and go else where. read more

This place is truly terrible. I purchased a more expensive wash, rather than the cheapest option, because I really wanted my car to look great. Unfortunately, as soon as I entered my car I noticed the entire passenger side was not vacuumed. I had to bring this to someone's attention to get this done. Overall, it's just a very half-assed car wash - any remnants of dirt after the machine wash aren't taken off and really only the dash is cleaned in the inside. Take your money elsewhere. read more

Just an FYI that this car wash has two pages here on Yelp... Too bad I can't give this place negative stars because it deserves a minus 5 stars rating. They are lazy and dishonest. They take no pride in their work, and they have zero customer service. How this dump stays in business is beyond me. To be fair,we have tried this place three times thinking they were having an off day, never again. The last time we went they did the worst vacuum job I have ever seen, they barely wipe anything down in the interior and the buffoons they have drying the cars are lazy idiots. One more thing, we noticed a $1.00 EXTRA charge on our receipt so we questioned the horrible woman behind the counter, she said it was because the minimum wage went up!...Well, then raise your price by a dollar, don't sneak a $1.00 "service fee" on!...they are underhanded creeps, stay far away from this hellhole. read more

So sad! Used to be a good place. Trucks still dirty. The interior was still dusty. They used the same rag on my tires as they did my dash. The manager suggested in broken English I spend more money on a hand wash..... never again! read more

It's not great and it's not bad. There's streaks inside and outside of my truck. It's a go to when I do not have the time to do it myself.

This place is so unprofessional!! I took my car in and specifically asked if they could get sap off the front windshield, they assured me they would and if anything they'd run it through the wash one more time. When I saw that they didn't get any of it off I asked for a rag... As soon as I started rubbing, it started to come off. The owner then presided to tell me that if I wanted the rest of it off if have to get the entire car detailed. I offered him an extra $40 to just do the windshield, then $90... He still refused. The only reason I went there was to get the windshield clean, so I literally paid for nothing. I'd rather pay the kid down the block $20 then go to this place again! Such a joke!! read more

I've now been here half a dozen times and I will continue to come here. The prices are reasonable and they do a good job no matter what service you are getting. The staff are all friendly and they are fast. I had to ask them to re-do the inside windows one time and they did it no problem and apologized for not doing a good job the first time. read more

I should've heeded the reviews on Yelp-I'd give this racket negative stars if I could. On 8/24, I took my car in to get the "oil change with free car wash 'deal'" and got my car back with a Swisher cigar stolen from the storage space under my radio. The cigar is not a big deal-but the fact that a car wash employee stole from its customer is enough for me to never return and warn all that this place's negative Yelp reviews should not be ignored. Also, they didn't vacuum between the driver seat and center console. read more

Damaged my car and refused to fix it. My van was damaged by their auto drive system and I spoke to two managers and they completely refused to fix my vehicle. Do not trust this car wash. Head down the street to UPTOWN for the $2 extra ... you will be glad you did! read more

I have the monthly wash program for 44.99 for my Dodge Ram. At first I loved this place and thought they did a great job but now I've noticed that they do a horrible job when they are busy. At the end of their day I normally go and the quality is a lot better. But when they are busy the apparently don't have the time to do a thorough job which I think is ridiculous. I also feel like you get more attention to detail if you know the managers in yellow shirts. Just sitting outside watching you can see who knows who and you'll notice the difference. I will be canceling my monthly program and finding a different place. read more

This was my first time at this car wash. I got the wash specializing on the interior because my dogs had been in the car that week and they shed badly. They told me that they would try to get as much of the hair out as they could, but it probably wouldn't all come out, which is understandable. They actually did a great job with the dog hair. The seats and dashboard were treated and looked like new. I was extremely impressed by this car wash and will be coming back. read more

DO NOT GO HERE!! I took my $70,000 truck brand new F350 platinum 4x4 in for a wash. They sent it through the TUNNEL.. upon coming out I noticed that my $450 cab guard protector was completely BENT BACKWARDS! When I pointed it out they told me that it was already that way and there's no way there TUNNEL could have damaged it?! Even after I called a vacuum guy over who saw it was straight before hand they denied any wrong doing. I even asked them to just remove it and straighten it Real quick and they basically told me to F&@K OFF!! Both the manager and the owner did NOTHING to fix it! DO NOT GO HERE! TERRIBLE PLACE! read more

An attention to detail is lacking here. They forgot to tell me my car was done for starters. No telling how much time I wasted just sitting around enjoying the Temecula heat. I think my dashboard has more dust on it than before I brought it in. I will say they did a decent job getting all the grime off the interior doors but I also paid $106. Is my car better yes but could the service have been better, yes. The cash register lady was very helpful and quick to ring up the transaction. read more

This place does a good job on the outside of the car but dang, they need way more attention to detail on the inside. Whenever my car is ready I get in and there's dust everywhere fam. I just don't get it. That's why I go to hospitality car wash off Winchester and Margarita. That's where it's at. read more

I am shocked right now. I should have looked and I didn't. Car wash gets a total of two stars and I don't even know how it gets two. I got out of my car at 8:03 in less than 12 minutes later they were putting their hand up that my car was done. Not just a car, a SUV - There were splatters all over the outside and inside of the car and when I questioned it he pretty much said we don't do that. I actually gave them a tip which they didn't deserve but I was trying to be cordial. I am so shocked at how bad this car wash is. My first and last time here for sure and I just moved here. It's sad because it was very clean and everyone was really nice. But if you can't give us service after paying $28 there's no way someone will go back read more

Rancho Car Wash - Car Wash Near Me - Temecula, California

Got my oil changed and then all of a sudden my radio wouldn't work. Everything is just complete static except for 103.3 and 92.9 (which even those both only work in about 1/3 of the area as before) and they wouldn't do anything to fix it. Just couldn't be bothered in the slightest and said to go to an audio shop. Why would I pay to get it fixed when you guys broke it?? Ridiculous. read more

I was the first one in line .. from start to finish it took 16 minutes . I called the guy back to finish drying my car, he rolled his eyes and did a half ass job. I had to finish drying my own car as the manager watched. read more

Very clean and customer friendly place. They do a good job washing up the cars, too. read more

worst car wash ever. They finished my car in 10 minutes & did not even touch the inside. Whyd i pay $32 when i could clean the inside myself. read more

I'm going to write this review in 2 sections. 1, being based off of the services I paid for. 2, based off what I had hoped for or assumed they'd go the extra mile to do. 1, I paid for super shine. Comparatively for the price I paid and the service I expected for this car wash, it was only sub par. I have water spots left on my mirrors and some of my windows. Not harsh water spots that are hard to remove, just spots left from their washing machine. The vacuuming I paid for wasn't that great either. There's still stuff on my floor. And most car washes I've been to they'll vacuum my cup holder area and around the shifter because that's where a lot of stuff ends up. They didn't. Granted this could go in the next section of the review, BUT vacuum is very vague and I'd hope they'd vacuum wherever the vacuum could go. The shine to my car or my tires isn't really that great. It's really only subpar. I've paid less at other washes and my car looks great 2, I had hoped for shinier tires. Maybe that's a false pretense but when you buy the wash that states "tire shine" you hope for shiny tires. Didn't get that here. My cup holders and dash aren't wiped or dusted or vacuumed. Again maybe my bad and false assumption. But that doesn't require an expensive liquid just a few seconds to wipe it down. They didn't really clean the leaves stuck in my trunk around my trunk lid. Again. Maybe a false thought. But again. I also naturally guess that car washes do that because all the ones I've been to do that. This one was significantly more expensive. It was faster than the other ones I go to but now I see why I highly doubt I'll be back here. read more

Great carwash..... i lets my bag on accident in the waiting area... called an hour later when i relized i left it and they had it safe and sound!!! Thank you read more

I had a great experience with a full interior detailing: $136, took them 5+ hours. The car seats had some really deep stains that haven't come off before at similar detailing services. Nice service and great results. read more

Worst experience ever! Dropped off my car at 8:00 am to have a full interior detail($150). The guy said it will take up to 4 hours. At 2:00 pm I called, and they said it will be ready in an hour. I got dropped off at 3:00pm, and watched for a half hour as the same guy walked to and away from the car only wiping the driver door jamb each time. After 30 minutes he backed the car out an pulled up to the wash line. I walked up and told him no, I want my car now. Here's the worst part...the car is filthy. It looks like after having the car for 7 hours! It doesn't even look like they vacuumed the back. There is dried gum stuck on the door jamb. Windows still gummed up with old stickers. I complained and the guy condescendingly says "that's why we need it all day, we have to take our guys off and back on your job". So, guess I'm the low priority... TLDR; kept car all day, not clean, stole $150, and RUDE! read more
