The AI is interpreting it in the only way that makes sense, the car is already at the car wash, should you take a 2nd car to the car wash 50 meters away or walk.
It should just respond "this question doesn't make any sense, can you rephrase it or add additional information"
“I want to wash my car. The car wash is 50 meters away. Should I walk or drive?”
The goal is clearly stated in the very first sentence. A valid solution is already given in the second sentence. The third sentence only seems tricky because the answer is so painfully obvious that it feels like a trick.

My car is a Lambo. I only hand wash it since it's worth a million USD. The car wash accross the street is automated. I won't stick my lambo in it. I'm going to the car wash to pick up my girlfriend who works there.

I want to wash my car because it's dirty, but my friend is currently borrowing it. He asked me to come get my car as it's at the car wash.

The original prompt is intentionally ambigous. There are multiple correct interpretations.
Where is the car that you want to wash?
You'd never ask a person this question with the hope of having a real and valid discussion.
Implicit in the question is the assumption that walking could be acceptable.
Sorry, but that’s not how conversation works. The person explained the situation and asked a question; it’s entirely reasonable for the respondent to answer based on the facts provided. If every exchange required interrogating every premise, all discussion would collapse into an absurd rabbit hole. It’s like typing “2 + 2 =” into a calculator and, instead of displaying “4”, being asked the clarifying question, “What is your definition of 2?”
Ask a human that question randomly and see how they respond.
