Touchless only, There is a warning on the back windshield that says not to take it through a car wash with rollers. That it could ruin the rear spoiler. I use to take my truck through them all the time. Then one of the rollers did something and I heard a big popping thump and now there is a small dent in my tail gate. I will only go touchless. They seem to be a waste of money but I have one in my area that uses hot water and it cleans really well.

I wanted to leave the "warning" sticker on but the dealer peeled it off. Never tried touchless washes. If you can find a hand car wash place, this is the best bet (other than doing it yourself)

Anyone in the chicagoland area, I go to Park Place Hand Car Wash in Third Lake, IL. No high pressure jets, no rollers, hand wash, with a light "rain" like rinse. They still send it through a machine rail but the rail is just short enough that it doesn't touch the bodywork.

I have never and will never use an auto car wash! All hand washed here and always will be.
