I actually used to have a fear of car washes (Amaxohydraclaustrophobia), but it was the automatic ones I was scared of, I used to have a full on panic attack when I went near them, the manual ones were no bother.

Amaxophobia is the fear of being in a car, hydrophobia is the fear of water and claustrophobia is the fear of small and confined spaces, that's why the fear of car washes is called Amaxohydraclaustrophobia.
