so i got a free car wash with gas tonight, have used this automatic wash over and over you get the free one with 6 gallons of gas. its a quick soap and rinse thats it, nothign fancy and it is lower pressure water than if you use the wand and do it yourself, anyway this thing jacked up and rubbed the foam padding all down the passenger side of my car!!! one of the nozzels got through the paint in two places MIND YOU i just got my car out of the body shop last monday, where they repainted that door and the front end...so i filled out a damn claim sheet and should be hearing from them soon...i was soo pissed, i used my better judgement and filled out that sheet instead of going apeshit on the mechanics of that car wash!!!

DAMN ID BE PISSED! SAVE THE APESHIT IF THEY START SHIT WITH YOU< and if they unfortunately do, id beat some ass. But hopefully theyll pay to fix it.

sorry to hear that dude.. that sucks

[workinprogress]

yeah i debated weather i should go inside and fill out the report or tear down that freakin sprayer arm and tie it in a damn knot...i think the only thing that made me go inside is because my car was half soapy still

[DanTheMan]

Car washes are so imperfect anyway.. I work all night at the bus company and one of the main things I do is run the bus through the wash before I park it and let me tell ya, I've had the job 3 weeks and every other bus has got a mirror knocked outta place so far

[workinprogress]

lol...i think some Major D Bag was in there before me and moved thier car while it was going, its all laser controled....you move the car it flipps the f out

[GTsetGO]

that sucks brah. let us know how everything turns out

[DanTheMan]

well i'm sure the service station is fully liable for that damage

[gsjohnson]

It's either a hand car wash for 11 bucks or I do it myself. I never let those automated car washes touch my car. Can't get something for nothin'.

[workinprogress]

the only reason i use this one is cause its free and fast, i mean i worked at a detail shop for a year....so my car is always clean this just does a good ass job of getting the dust off, not to mention its always been 100% touch free, not those spinnig sanding disks they call "foam brite"

so true

[workinprogress]

i mean honestly, look at what it does, it gets the dirt off of everyones car right....well it also holds all of that then spins it uncontrolably against your cars beloved complection. why dont you save the price you would pay for "foam brite" go buy the cheapest wash mit you can find, get it wet, trow it in a sand box, and wash your car with it....without ever rinsing it or adding more soap.

i will take some pics of the damage a lil later today...the best part is that it just came out the shop and i have proof they painted that side to perfection!!! every defect is that car washes responsibility now and maybe a lil extra that they didnt plan on...

[DanTheMan]

tell em that it completely ripped off your cobra rear bumper and spoiler so you had to go to the junkyard and get the gt pieces j/k

[workinprogress]

lol if i could pull that one off i deserve this

[workinprogress]

ok im going to bed, i have had about 10 hours of sleep total, 1 hour or so at a time in the last 96 or so hours...i dont have to work till four so i wll get some pics up before then. thanks for the support here fellas, and dan the man i got a good laugh too, kinda brighnened my situation

[weems]

that sucks man, keep us posted on how it goes...

[johnr2001]

that why i don't do drive through car washes.

[man_of_war2081]

Damn that sucks man... but thats the reason I use the touchless car washes when its either too cold or im too lazy to wash the car myself.

[lonestarrider]

I never let anyone, or anything for that matter, wash my car!!
