Shell

PROS:
93 octane fuel
Clean restrooms
Free self vacuums
CONS:
They lost 2 stars for me because the car washes are expensive and for a brand new car wash, I don’t feel like it works very well at all.
I brought my car in for some fuel and wanted to get that 10 cent savings per gallon, so I bought the «deluxe», $ 11 car wash.
— now before I go on they have the ability to do well but just have no system to do so.
If you know about washing cars you know that prepping the car is the most important part. They have pressure washers and brushes they should use on both the front and back of the car before they send it through.
Anyways this was not done the first time and after going through there was a lot of salt on both the front bumper/​grille and also the trunk lid/bumper…as anticipated. So I go in and complain my car wasn’t washed to my liking, and kindly a young lady let me go through once more, but this time sprayed my trunk/​bumper with the power washer.
Thinking the SECOND wash would have gotten all that salt/​dirt off I drove home.
.I was wrong still plenty of salt left over.
My issue with this is that they have an employee meet you on the end of the wash to dry down the car for a couple bucks tip. Think about a presumably dirty cloth being used to not only dry your car but also scratch the absolute shit out of your clear coat. This is irresponsible and unacceptable.
I don’t ever have the gas station attendant dry my car, and until they figure out how to wash a car I won’t be returning for anything but gas and free vacuums.
