North shore Auto wash? More like North shore auto rinse! Decided I need to try out the auto wash my car was a little dirty but not too bad as I only drive it a few times a week and I have it washed at least once a month. After the wash I pulled over to see what kind of job it did. It was almost like someone just rinsed it off, had swirl marks all over it like some took a garden hose to it. So went in to complain, they told me the system has been giving them problems all day and washing cars with enough pressure. So I just asked for my money back (paid $18 for the works) so I could hit a car wash that would actually work but nope they told me that they would try washing it again but I would have to wait in line again (20 minutes or so) I wasnt willing to sit in line again to see if a second wash will work when my car wasnt that dirty to begin with. Just wanted my money back but no luck. I think next time Ill stick with the other cash washes in North Van, this one is terrible

Best place to wash your car quickly and maintain clean every week. There is salt on the road because of snow. Salts are extremely bad for your vehicle. It will make your Vehicle rust out fast. This place has super high pressure under body spray. It cleans the under body very well. I go to this place once or twice a week. I can have my car stay clean for a month. After a month, contamination from the road builds up, then I will need Hand Wash my car. This place is cheap if you are a member. Only cost $6.25 !! for "The Works $18" each wash. A lot people complain there are still dirt after wash... Please, understand those dirt stuck on the paint, if you dont wash your car often. This is not magic, You think just drive your car through the place, then your car will shine ??? Come on, people. So, If your car hasnt been washed for months. Do not use any of touchless wash. Hand wash is the best for you.

Do NOT waste your time or money here. Yesterday I got the $15 wash and a few minutes after leaving, I noticed that my windows were filthy. Today I looked at my car as a whole in the sun light. Filthy. I washed it all by hand right away because I couldnt bare the thought of having spent money for no reason at all! This place charges extra to use the vacuum. When you first pull into the driveway, workers start pressure washing your rims. At first, I thought this was nice, and thought they were ensuring a proper clean. After, I figured out that they must have done a pre-pressure wash because the car washing machine itself cant do a half decent job on its own. The machine must be old and run down. Ive used the touchless car wash in Surrey on king George Boulevard several times, its $7, does a stunning job, and you can use the vacuums for free afterwards! North Shore Auto Wash is a huge rip off and waste of time

The good: you have all the tools you need to vacuum your car and wash your dog, and their mat washing service is cheap and saves you time. The bad: both the dog wash and the vacuum have minimum charges, and theyre on timers. So its $6 to start washing your dog, then $1/min after. But if you let the timer run out, you have to start with another $6. Theres no way to pause the timer while you scrub them down, or retrieve them if theyve escaped. Also, the leashes where you can clip your dog in are broken. I guess its back to the bathtub for us. The vacuum has the same time/money restrictions, tho obviously not such a big deal. It definitely would have gone faster if the vacuum had any power to them, even the "turbo" needed many passes to vacuum the dirt. Guess Ill find another car vacuum place too.

I just did car wash today at 9:30PM. I read lots of terrible google review before I went to this place today. But, recently I bought a new car, because of the snow I wanted to keep clean. Usually I do car wash at ESSO gas station. However, it was closed today. So I gave a shot at this place, hoping the reviews were not accurate. I tried $18 package, but it did not go well. it did not even rinse off the soap. When the car came out, the soaps were all around the place. Because it was night there were no one in office to complain. It was definitely waste of money. I will never come back.

Car simply doesnt get clean. I have been here a few times due to the 24hr convenience but Im done. Also cheapest wash is $12. Thats ridiculous for an automated wash- even if it actually got the car clean. Auto car wash on Scott rd costs $4 and works well. This same company has a non touch less in Richmond on Bridgeport that works really well and uses premium products (and is $10 for the cheapest wash). I think North Van is getting a raw deal. Go somewhere else bottom line- or leave your car dirty- this place wont do anything but make your wallet lighter.

Terrible experience. I didnt expect a perfect wash so knowing that, my brand new car had a bit of bird droppings on it so I went in for the premium $18 wash. The wash went fine; however, due to the condensation, after the garage doors opened to let my dried car out, oily water dripped all over my car and stained my whole darn car. Worst part is I emailed them my concerns and they never even take the time to reply. Absolute waste of time and terrible customer service. Absolutely dont recommend to anyone.

Its a great service to keep your vehicle "maintained" during the winter. Dont expect it to be the same as a good hand wash. It does help keep the grime off. Go there during their operating hours when they pressure wash the outside. Monthly membership is the best deal. Free mat washing and 8 washes a month for $50. Any vehicle 24 hours a day. Interior cleaning supplies given to you as well as drying towels. Now all they need is some hot girls working there. Great for the undercarriage as well.

Last time I ever go to this so called car wash. They charge $18 to basically spray some foam on your car and rinse it. Wheels and windows are never clean and if you complain they dont care its another $18 for a re-wash. Then they have the nerve to charge $4 to rinse your mats off for you. I for one will be bringing my business to another car wash for now on. Ill pay $20 somewhere else but at least Ill get a full wash and vacuum with FREE mat wash.

This place does a half decent job. Note for your first time, drive in slowly as there is no sign telling you that your rims are being washed on entry. A quick pull in and youll still have dirty rims. Heavy filth wont be cleaned. Their "spot free" ads are bs, as youll find water and soap still dripping from your mirrors and door jams. I almost recommend doing a pre rinse and coming here for the final wax and protection.
