Dont We get free car washes?

[Darksyde024]

I thought in my Manual it said for being the owner of a Ford SVT vehical you can get free car washes from the dealer?

i called them and they said you get a free car wash with any service? but any car gets that..

 

[HISSMAN]

It is up to the dealer. If they want to give free car washes to everyone that is there prerogative.

 

[greyrob]

they wash mine everytime - and might i say they do a good job - i believe
these boys think its theirs - which is ok by me

 

[flyn high again]

Do you want teenage kids with dirty towels and little experience washing your car with whatever soaps they have handy? I always tell the dealer NOT to wash my car if I bring it there.

greyrob-the one time the dealer forgot and washed mine, I had soap residue all over the car. I could barely see through the windows.

yeah all it takes is to wash and wax your car once and you'll never let anyone touch it again. just about any other car and i'd let em wash it though..

The dealership where I go uses brushes and didn't want to screw up the clearcoat.

 

[mystic04]

My first time at the dealer they washed it but DIDN"T bother to DRY. i cam back to pickup the car and it's all wet i am like ah ok they washed it but no Drying !!!! last time for that action for me. i spend too much time poslishing it and waxing to let them ruin all my hard work.

While im on the subject , have you guys notices how much F@#king dirt collects on top our reaR BUMBER?!

 

[greyrob]

i baby my car too - they use nothing but plain water (i said everytime) me 03 cobra has only been in the shop 3 times since i bought her - just knock the dust off and the
workers hand print please

My dealer started laughing when I mentioned the "free car wash". But, then again, this is the dealer that wanted to wipe down the instrument cluster plastic with Orange-Glo and a dirty rag during delivery prep. Luckily I was there to stop that insanity. My car has never seen anything other than hand washing by me.

 

[HISSMAN]

The guys at my dealership know that I am OCD with cars, and when I ordered my 04 and it arrived, they didn't touch it. All of the factory items (tags,etc) were still on the car, and I took it home to wash and wax it. But it still had swirls on it from the dealership they brought it in from. I guess they decided to give it a wash. :shrug:

All SVT cars get a FREE wash, FREE vacuum, and FREE rental up to $25.00/day with EVERY service. If you want those things and they aren’t getting done then call Ford customer service and tell them whats going on. The dealer will then get a nasty letter and they will change their ways real quick!

I never really take the wash because I am afraid they will screw up the paint, but I always take the vacuum.

 

[Huachipato]

at my dealership if the day is nice they will run it through the car wash. It leaves all kinds of dirt on the car.... :cryying: :cuss: :bash:

lol yea i got that problem too

 

[2004BlackCobra]

lol yea i got that problem too

Same Here.


And I always tell the dealership to not wash my car. I dont trust them one bit.

 

[StngStr]

I tell them to vacuum, but not to wash. So far they've always followed my instructions. No problems getting the rental either. They've always been good to me.

 

[Slow04Cobra]

Another man(or woman for that matter) washing my car would be like them cracking my girl. I just wouldn't stand for that.

Slow

 

[Orange Poison]

I don't let the dealer to ANY kind of cleaning on my car. This way when you tell them....they're more apt to be careful in not getting it dirty, greasy, etc. in the first place.

I forgot one time, and they put minor scratches and swirls all in my paint :cuss: :fm:

"cracking my girl" ??

Is this some form of new street lingo? :shrug:

 

[CobraBob]

Some dealers will do it while others don't. Mine did it once I think. Then I asked them not to do it again. Like someone said above I wouldn't want just anyone rubbing dirt into my paint (with a dirty sponge) or drying it with towels that feel like burlap. LOL!
