The problem is that so many aren't and you have no way of knowing when you stop at one at random.

I'd guess the machines at the Ferrari factory - and at your BMW dealers - are perfectly fine.

"Properly maintained" is the key. If Ferrari have one, I'd be willing to bet it's the best maintained automatic car wash in the world, in stark contrast to the 25 year old paint stripper, oops, I mean car wash down the road from me...
