A wrap-around vehicle wash component

A vehicle treatment system for a vehicle wash system includes a frame portion (20) in communication with a brush assembly (16) for treating front and rear vehicle surfaces. The brush assembly is rotated about an axis of rotation such that its associated wash media elements (40) rotate therewith. The brush assembly includes a support carrier (70) that is moveable with respect to the frame portion. The brush assembly includes a biasing mechanism that switches the brush assembly axis of rotation from a vertical orientation to a non-vertical orientation. A control system communicates with the support carrier to move the brush assembly along the front surface of the vehicle in a substantially vertical position and along the rear surface of the vehicle in a non-vertical position.
