My car wash uses low pressure water but they have the high pressure blow dry at the end, I've been through it countless times never had a problem.

I've never had an issue with the antenna or have heard of any. Actually, I take that back, on my cousins Ford Fusion I believe he knocked it off when clearing snow off the car, but that was by hitting it with a scraper. I also use the pressure washers in the self wash bay in the winter, and during the warmer months I have a pressure washer at my house that I use. When it's cold out I normally bring a bucket of warm water and soap to the car wash and use their pressure washer bay, this way it gets a better cleaning and you can avoid hitting the areas like the antenna with a direct blast.

Haha, it's actually not bad with a bucket of warm water at the car wash in the winter, it's easier and faster than setting up all my cleaning stuff and hoping the hose isn't frozen. You just have to be careful using warm water on cold glass, it could crack it. I bought one of the Chemical Guys buckets with the seal-able lid. The touchless drive-thru washes by me never get my car fully clean, they just seem to get the heavier dirt off, leaving a film behind. If I had a ceramic coat I could probably get away without using a wash mitt.
