The car wash quest in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 asks you to take a vehicle through a wash to make a good impression with The Seven. The catch is that car washes are not labeled on the map. They sit as minor Landmarks, so you have to know where to look before you waste fuel circling the island.
Quick answer: Grab a drivable car, then steer it all the way through the automated wash tunnel at one of two Landmarks. The fastest one sits on the main road between Golden Grove and Shaken Sanctuary. The quest only completes once your car exits the far side of the tunnel.
Both car wash locations in Chapter 7 Season 3
There are two car wash Landmarks on the island. One is on the east side and is the better starting point because it has its own parking lot, where a usable car often spawns out front. The other sits on the northwest coast but has no parking lot, so you must bring your own vehicle.
| Location | Where it is | Car nearby? |
|---|---|---|
| East car wash | On the main road between Golden Grove and Shaken Sanctuary | Has a parking lot; a car often spawns out front, or grab one in Golden Grove |
| West car wash | Northwest rocky coast between Calamari Canyon and Chopped Shop, near a small cliff | No parking lot; bring a car from Calamari Canyon or Chopped Shop |
How to complete the car wash quest
How to know it worked
When your car exits the tunnel, the quest completion notification pops on screen and you earn your XP. There is also a practical bonus. The wash fully repairs any structural damage to your vehicle and refills the gas tank to maximum, which makes it a useful pit stop before rotating into the final storm circles.
If nothing triggers, it is almost always because the car did not pass all the way through. Reverse out, realign, and drive straight through the tunnel from one side to the other rather than stopping inside or parking alongside it.
