Default Automatic car washes

On pg 163 of the 2002 PT Cruiser user manual, it warns to not use an auto car wash if the compact spare is installed. Well, I emailed Chyrsler to ask WHY??? and was told two things.
1st - just use the auto car washed that have soft cloths.
2nd - follow the guideline on page 163.
Too weird!! Talk about mixed messages!!
Anyway, what's the deal with the spare, if anything? The clearance seems fine. There's even a stabilizer bar underneath with LOWER clearance than the spare.
Is anyone out there using an automatic car wash? Any problems? I want my Cruiser to stay cool and clean and don't have time to do hand washes. HELP!?!? Thank!
