    Abstract: A shoe cleaner for retractably attaching under a door of a vehicle. An enclosure is attached under the door of the vehicle. A brush assembly is retractably and extendably attached to the enclosure. A track drive retracts and extends the brush assembly relative to the enclosure. A brush drive spins the brush assembly. A worm gear of the track drive is operatively attached to a motor of the track drive and to a pair of arms of the brush assembly to allow the pair of arms and at least one brush of the brush assembly to extend from the enclosure, when polarity of the motor is such that it rotates in one direction, until such time that a pin of the track drive contacts an extension limit micro-switch of the track drive stopping the motor and to retract into the enclosure, when the polarity of the motor is reversed such that it rotates in the other direction, until such time that the pin contacts a retraction limit micro-switch of the track drive stopping the motor.
