    My 2001 Jeep Cherokee XJ always shines after a soapy joes bath!

    This is my go to car wash in Fallbrook and I go quite often! I love giving all my vehicles a nice bath once a month and when I take them here they always come out nice! I appreciate that I can use nice microfiber rags to dry off the car afterwards and of course the vacuums are a must! I'll continue to go here for all my car wash needs!

    Great service and car washes until you want to cancel your membership. If you don't have the account # you must call and wait on hold. Must be pretty busy over there with car wash inquires... Anyway I tried to cancel on Jan 10th, and they said it was taken care of. Fast forward to March I am still being charged.... Called a 2nd time and they told me they had to request a membership cancellation. Really? A request? I then asked if they could access record of my last call which she could not do immediately. Also, I had the call log on my cell and wanted to send that to them for proof which apparently is not allowed either. So the wait continues.... will I ever get this settled? Maybe I'll just pay for carwashes will I close my bank account.

    Damaged wing mirror

    Dryer damaged my brand new truck when going through the wash and they said they are not liable.

    Super excited to have a new Soapy Joe's close to my work! Now I can wash my car on my way into work and on the way home. Spoke to the owner and he's happy to have this location opening up too! $15 a month for an Average Joe Wash is well worth my time.

    Terrible job and my car was damaged by the car wash! They take no responsibility. I'll have to take them to court.

    Are the brushes rubber or cloth? Is there a "touch-less" option?

    To be honest I'm not sure. My guess is rubber. I emailed a question to them via their main website and got a quick response, you might want to try that..

    Love this spot and other than handwashing my ride with my own hands (ain't gonna happen!), you…read morewon't find a better wash for your vehicle! It's one of the longest tunnels as I've been to 3-4 locations and some tunnels are half the size. Odd cuz the shorter ones must have less equipment operating yet my car always seems to be just as clean no matter what location I hit. But Oceanside at the 76 and Foussat is my local spot. Attendants are ALWAYS upbeat and positive and willing to help out. I could share some stories but will save you. Just know that they are fantastic with customer service. I even read a few 2 and 1 star reviews and those people still gave kudos to the workers. The other things they got down on them for (faulty equipment, car damage??). I don't know any of that and haven't heard anyone talk about that and I get my ride spruced at least once every 2 weeks and more like once a week! You know how it is. I've got kids too, bro! I usually need the inside more than outside but why not get both when you have the monthly unlimited pass? Wash, rinse and repeat and your whip will never look nasty. The ladies, or dudes, and maybe both, will be stretching their necks as you shoot by. One. "Concern" I have to bring up is the constant issue of non-operable vacuums It seems almost every time I go for a wash, the vacuum is not working -little to zero suction. However I will say that the team is in it as those hoses are typically repaired within a week or so. I think it's a problem that is somewhat out of their control. The problem being too much usage. I would argue this location is the busiest.

    Here's a generic poor customer service Yelp review you can customize:…read moreWriting I normally try to give businesses the benefit of the doubt, but this experience was honestly disappointing. The customer service was rude, dismissive, and completely lacking professionalism. I felt like my concerns were an inconvenience rather than something they actually cared about resolving. The staff seemed uninterested in helping, communication was poor, and the overall experience left a bad impression. I understand places get busy, but basic courtesy and respect should still matter. Unfortunately, because of how I was treated, I won't be returning or recommending this business to others. Hopefully management takes customer feedback seriously and improves the way customers are treated in the future.
