I went on a Wednesday morning, so they weren't busy.The front sales guy will try to upsell you as much as he can, even lie to you. The first time my car went through the car wash and the washers neglected my roof. The guy said I needed a $60 or $80 wax job to take off the dirt and make it clean. I said no I just need another run through the washer; I argued with him until he stopped trying to upsell me with nonsense, then brought my car back into the washer conveyor. Maybe they purposely didn't scrub the top of my small sedan to try to upsell later when I inspect their work.Sadly, this is the best hand carwash place from what I can tell. Thankfully I have a garden hose again. Aside from the sales guy at the line, everything else is pretty decent.The young guys are slack on their vacuuming job. The older Asian lady tries to do a thorough vacuuming job compared to the younger dudes, so I tipped her. I literally had to get the vacuum on the young guy's side to re-vacuum lol like don't give me that look, I'm cleaning up the mess I'm paying you to clean while you move on to work on the next car. I'm buying a Dyson and shop VAC soon :/The regular Xpress wash prices are good.Some of the prices on other stuff can be outrageous.I paid for the gold wash but didn't get all the services listed on the sign. Where's my alleged cabin air freshener, and no sales receipt?

Best car wash ever! They were so detailed, I paid for the silver $33.95 and gave a $10 tip. These guys have a system and it works, never had a cleaner car! Would recommend this place to anyone! You can buy 5 washes up front and get a free one!

In February 2024, I went in for car engine wash and they threw in a car wash, tire wash, and polish the headlight covers. There was a standby mechanic to make sure the engine runs after the wash as electrical issues may arise which give me a peace of mind. Awesome deal and the service staffs were hard working and making sure you are happy with their service. Thank you guys, keep up the great work!I highly recommend the car wash company.David YoungBusiness Enthusiast

I wish I can give them a better rating, but I can't. When the car is complete you give them a tip. I tipped the guy $20.00 dollars because he deserves it (busting his butt off in this heat, or so I think so). But when I did the walk around I noticed the windows aren't cleaned. I asked him why isn't it cleaned. He said it can't come off. I told him this ain't good. He tried to clean it off and said there's nothing he can do. He knew I was pretty upset already( paid for the gold wash which is about $40.00 +-). So I stepped in the car with my daughter and just as we were about to leave I noticed the dome light on and the hatch door was not properly closed. So as I went out to properly close it, I spoke to another guy and he said it was acid on the windows that has etched onto it. Now hear me out here; this car is garaged (it's my wife's car, it's new and my POS 4runner stays outside). So I don't know what to say, I said forget about it, I'm done and drove off. Got home to inspect the car more now since I felt they didn't do a good job( now if they did do a good job I wouldn't question their work), and noticed other things they didn't clean up on. Very disappointed, I should have just done it at home (gave them the benefit of the doubt). I'm done with this place. Been there a few times and kinda forgot why I don't come by here anymore. A waste of $50.00 +- and my time. You guys gotta do better

Slow and over priced.Paid for their cheapest plan, $29.95 Bronze (including car wash, sealer wax and air freshener). Watched the car went through the machine tunnel (same as the $6 machine wash that you can find at gas stations). And then they parked it all the way in the back with another black color truck for 40 mins. No workers wanted to go there to wipe the remaining water and bubbles off (It s a big truck and workers seems to pick small cars first and hope other coworkers can go do the trucks). I almost wanted to do it myself so I can leave. Eventually waited for 60 mins for a simple car wash. 40 mins the car was just sitting there waiting to be wiped.Nothing fancy, way too slow, over priced.At the end, an elderly man went to my truck and finished the job. We felt bad for him. Gave him $10 tip and really appreciated his honest work ethics.Nowadays, it s amazing to just see people doing their jobs.

At Mission car wash, in The San Gabriel Valley, I had the best car wash experience ever. I was actually on my way to another car wash, but felt the urge to turn around and visit Mission car washI. I am so glad I went with my spirit. I was pleasantly surprised at how inviting and beautiful this car wash is in many ways. The customer service is on par excellent! The employees are very friendly and helpful. You can tell the employees care about your experience and your satisfaction with their work on your car. If you love history you will love this place, there are many historical artifacts inside which will make you smile and wonder.Mission car wash is a one stop shop. You can find all the traditional things that you find in a car wash shop. But at Mission there s more, you can get your fill up your car with fuel, get an oil change, get a detail hand wax for your car and get some authentic Mexicans food at the restaurant that s located on the premises. There is enough room to physical distancing yet feel the beauty of being around the family. If you have not visited Mission car wash then you re missing out on a unique total car wash experience. It s worth taking a trip from where you are to visit the Mission Car Wash in the city of Saint Gabriel. It s on the corner where the Saint Gabriel in the Mission Road intersect. Do me a favor when you get there tell them you were referred by level 8 Google Local Tour Guide Pastor Omar sent you!

This is a good car wash on a week day. The difference is the quality and the wait. The weekends is crowded and they do a respectable job but on the weekday my car is done in detail and looks amazing when completed.

My local go to for a car wash. Why more car washes don t have a restaurant attached or near by is beyond me. Makes it so convenient to stop by and have lunch (at Tia Gladys next door) while your car is getting washed. Not sure it stands out as a stand alone car wash, since service and cleanliness is hit and miss, but as a convenience, it works for me.

Wow are you kidding me? How did this place get a 4 1/2 stars. Opted for a gold wash with extra mat cleaning. Came out to $49 dollars plus 5 dollars tip. Photos taken right after the car wash. They took almost an hour, thought they were doing a thorough job, but nope. Never coming back.

Best service in the city. I drive 25 min to this car wash. There gold wash #2 is great. Their detail service is even better. I would highly recommend this car wash among any out there.

I was in the area and found this place on google and decided to come because they offered an express exterior wash and I noticed from pictures that they aren t the type of car wash that has the big brushes and bristles which is great. I opted for express exterior wash $14-$15. I drive through the car wash and a couple men hand washed my car with soap while the machines sprayed it with water and then a different man hand dried my car after the machine dried it at the end.There was no area to get out and vacuum yourself at the exit and I was also on my way to another place so I didn t check my car. Once I got home, I saw a long scratch go across the roof of my car on the side. the EXACT reason why I don t go to those drive through automatic washes. I don t even know HOW they managed to scratch my car. They must ve had residue left on the towels they were using while they were scrubbing the soap on. My car is only 4 months old! lesson learned. I will only go to self serve car washes from now on!Service: Full body wash

A terrible job, and this is my first time. The driver side is not washed at all. The manager eventually offered to wash it again, but I ran out of time.(the Wait time was 50mins). I'm glad I didn't purchase the combo they tried to sale.Entrance is OK but exit is not very easy.

They had done a great job with getting an oil change and brake fluid. The carwash wasn't that great. Beware of one of the vacuum people at the beginning. There was an employee who had been very audibly angry at my messy car (which was why 8 went to get it cleaned...) and I saw the employee smack their vacuum cleaner on my car multiple times. That employee also called over other employees to complain and want very hospitable. I understand it's not easy nor fun but at least be courteous on the job. And the part that the employee was supposed to clean wasn't even clean... They also left spots in the car unclean and scratched my windows. Would not come again for the carwash but I'd come back for fixing up my car.

I've tried other places and no one comes close to Mission Car wash and Tint. I always take my Tahoe there for wash and wax. I recently bought a second car and had washed, clay bar, waxed and windows tinted. Great Job All the way around!

Been going to mission car wash since 25 years ago. Since I know how to drive, car wash and gas here. Staffs are very friendly.

This is the best car wash anywhere, period. It does take awhile for them to wash the car but that's because they truly do a very thorough job. I come here maybe once every other month to get a regular wash, and it usually takes about an hour to finish. Regular wash is $18.95 for cars, and for trucks and SUVs it's $2.50 extra. The price has gone up quite a bit over the years, but that's understandable as labor cost increases yearly. They sell a coupon book that allows you to pre-purchase car washes at a discount, and there's also a loyalty stamp card available. I've been coming here for years and it's by far the best car wash you can get anywhere for the price.

I've been coming here for over 20 years. The staff is friendly, and your oil change comes with a complimentary carwash, which is approximately a 20 dollar value. The mechanic aren't pushy trying to upsell you recommend services for your vehicle. I will absolutely recommend this business, considering that I don't give my loyalty just to anyone without then proving that they are worthy of my business.

The staff is wonderful. The staff that dry your vehicle are pleasant and hard workers, too bad the customers I've noticed are not good tippers.

This isn't a review of the establishment but more of the customers. No one tips the guys/gals drying the cars. How you drive a Mercedes and not tip? Honestly it screams trashy.

I love the way they serve every single person and most of the people who worked in are Hispanic.

Great car wash! A retrofitted old school car wash. Love the decor items. They do a great job, but are always busy. I never seem to get out of there in an hour. More like an hour and a half. They have many options for your car washing needs and budget. I have never had a bad car wash here. They do a spectacular job.

I have been coming here since I was a kid. My sister and I loved watching the car go through the wash through all the windows. Now as an adult I come here and use the monthly express wash. It's great and my kids love sitting in the car as it goes through the wash. The employees here are hard working and friendly. They do a great job of washing and drying my car. I come here every week and leave happy.

Excellent service and they do a phenomenal job. I love that they do a hand wash in the automatic tunnel instead of the big brush rollers so your clear coat stays nice and doesn t get scratched by the big roller brushes most other car washes have. And they do a really great job cleaning the interior and windows. I drive over 1000 miles a week and my car always looks brand new because I take it through mission car wash once a week. Thanks, guys!
