Russell Fischer Car Care - San Clemente

"This place used to be good. Worst experience I've ever had. My car hadn't been used in a few months so the leather seats had some gunk on them. He charged me $17 to wipe the seats down and they looked identical to when I brought it in. I spent 1 minute with armor all wipes and they got completely shiny. $17 for nothing. This place is an absolute scam!"

"Yeah this car wash you're doing okay job but it's really expensive. Charge $32 for an Audi Q5 vacuum job was suspect, found trash in the car then the dryers have their hand out looking for a $10 tip. Only reason not to go to this place as if I was desperate for a quick."

"Came on a Friday when it wasn’t too crowded. Had solid service and the wash was good. Driving from AZ, the bugs on the grill were baked on there. I watched the Russels crew give the attention to detail needed to thoroughly remove them and any other residue, ha. I’ll certainly be back."

"I have been coming here for many years but no more. Last time the finisher had put my keys on top of my tire and so the car would not start. A reasonable mistake. But when I told him the car keys were not in the car he acted like I was making it up until he found them. Today I dropped the car off . About 5 minutes later the attendant came over and in a snotty matter said. "Is that your car? We can't wash it. There's dog hair in it. You will have to pay 30 extra dollars" It really was said in a condescending tone. I am okay with you not wanting to do the job and am aware that getting dog hair out is difficult and don't expect perfection but save the attitude."

"I want to love Russell’s but this place is hit or miss at best. Last time I came, my car looked phenomenal. But I went for a Gold Wash this morning and I’m going to have to go vacuum and wipe out my car again, which I shouldn’t have to do after just paying $40. I was the 3rd person in line at 8am, but was the 7th person to get my car out of the wash (my guess is because I bought the bottom tier and they go off of that not time of arrival) so overall it took 45 min and I still have to go to another car wash to get the things that were missed. Very disappointed with the entire experience."
