Gord and anyone else driving Ford cars, please be aware that you should not use a car wash if you have spoilers fitted as for some reason the spoilers are not detected going through car washes.
I know none of us like using these kind of car washes anyway but please be aware.

Is this a joke? :confused:

No this is not a joke but the new RS and ST or any vehicle with spoiler are not registering on the auto sensors on the car wash.
I not sure if this is on other manufacturers as well.

Oh fair enough, it seemed so bizarre I wasn't sure if it was true! How odd that it's just affecting those particular cars?

Not sure if it just these cars or all cars with spoilers.
Maybe it some thing to do with carbon/fiberglass or different plastic that these machines don't pick up.
