Safari Car Wash

They did a very good job of cleaning my truck in the end. I got the safari wash with dash and door and leather cleaning. The team member that helped me choose which service I wanted was very nice and accommodating followed up by a very friendly cashier. However, the team member that wash doing interior cleaning after the wash was very grumpy and glared at me. After taking a quick look I realized that the door jams weren't clean and pointed it out to the final inspector and he took care of it instantly doing a great job. The only other thing to consider when going there is it normally takes around 45 minutes.

You pay more for less here. The wash itself has consistently left swirl marks in my paint because it appears they do not clean/replace their scrubbers nor filter the dirty water they cycle through in the first wash stages well enough. Your car might look clean but look at it closer on a sunny day after leaving this place! Even worse is the broom they scrub dirt into the back of your car with that gets rinsed over and over in filthy water. Not only do they not do the job well they punish your paint too. Over time this place will eat your clear coat. The vacuums they have don't seem to be as well maintained or suck as well as other places either, which isn't entirely a dealbreaker so much as an annoyance. Their prices are high. They're higher than most other full-service places and the results *do not show*. Having been to Safari Car Wash a handful of times because it's a little closer to me I can make a fair assertion that you should take your money elsewhere. Today cemented that decision for me. The guy who is usually awkwardly "helping you" select your wash accosted me today in front of my children. I pulled into the vacuums first because I always forget to pull into there after the wash because they're a bit out of sight of the exit. As I step out of my car this guy comes up to me and barks at me that I have to buy a wash first to use the vacuums. Upon my merely asserting that I was definitely buying a wash after and I went to the vacs first because I always forget he started swearing at me. When I tried telling him I came there frequently and was definitely buying a wash he came to a boil and cut me off and told me he was going to "kick my ..." if I didn't "take it to the street and never come back or he would knock my ....... teeth out" et cetera et cetera with a bunch of expletives. He was threatening me in front of my kids for the littlest thing! I warned him my dash cam was recording him in some hopes of avoiding a physical altercation with him hitting me or my car and it seemed to remind him he had something to lose for his petty anger and I was able to leave from there. I will be taking my weekly $12 wash down the street to the [insert Louisiana state bird name here ;) ] Car Wash from now on, where I get more wash for my money, less damaging equipment, an area where you can pre-soak the bugs on your car, better vacuums, and staff there don't have hair-trigger anger issues. Looking around at other reviews my issues with this place seem to be consistent. I don't know why I chose convenience over quality through giving this place too many chances for this long. Now that I'm "banned" for trying to use the vacuums first (trust me, with the attitude you had, I had already banned YOU first) I have no reason to give this place my money and I can only hope in addition to losing my patronage you the reader also heed my warning.

I've been to Safari twice. The car wash its self is decent about the same as any where I've been to. The cashier has an attitude and just sits there eating her candy and looking at you crazy if you ask a question. The wipe down was ok but alot of missed spots door jamns half done and windows still spotty and my ac vents. Last time i went they did a great job vaccuming this time there were spots missed and they didnt vaccum ubder my mats. Unless service improves ill be going to the other full service wash little further away but same price and better job.

Could have done a better job for the price. I could still see my son's hand prints on the passenger side of the car & they broke the anchor belt on his carseat. No one said a word.
