What Dash Car Wash's reviews show

Dash Car Wash reports vehicle damage in 1.3% of reviews — drawn from 9,680 of Dash Car Wash's Google reviews run through WashIndex's damage-mention extraction, and that's well below the ~2.4% category median — one of the safer reads in the dataset and a sign of equipment and training discipline.
