Chevron

Worst gas station ever. Love chevrons gas and all but the pumps are in disrepair (pump 5 is broken without signage indicating it’s broken even after telling the cashier who is aware of the issue) and I have time to post this while the gas pumps at 1 gallon per minute. Don’t come here.

Guy named Leo at the counter yelled at me when I asked if I could get an extra stamp because I forgot to tell them to stamp my card last time I had my car detailed and washed. He couldn’t say «no» nicely, he had to yell. I would of taken a nice no but he yelled, «no you should of told us last time.» I said, wow, that’s bad customer service and then he began to yell louder saying people spend 300 Dollars Here we don’t give a shit about your 150. I’m a business owner myself and have been my whole life, you don’t treat people that way. I wasn’t even mad about one stupid stamp it wasn’t a big deal at all. Shocking to get yelled at for one simple question. I live in Encinitas and work north of the gas station, I can’t believe I went out of my way to get treated like that. Looks like he hates life and wants to take it out on the customers. The guy I talked to about it outside said he yells at people all the time. Like I said originally, that’s really bad customer service and I’m going to tell everyone I know. You don’t have to stamp my card but don’t yell at me for no reason.

This place is shady and does a horrible job. They’re not friendly whatsoever and just simply greased up my interior. The car still had bird dropping on it AFTER I did their most expensive hand wax $ 59.99 package. The sign says they will shampoo your interior and much more, I came to pick it up and find out THERE WAS STILL SAND on the carpet. For $ 60 worth, I’ve could’ve taken my car to another place for a much better wash and service.
This service was worth no more than $ 25. I can’t believe I found bird dropping still On the car after they have «waxed» it. They pretty much waxed over the bird poop and rushed the whole thing.
NEVER COMING BACK.

This Chevron station has a large convenient store, car wash and there is even a service bay station right next to it (not sure if it’s part of Chevron to be honest). According to Gas Buddy, it is averaged price to pay compared to other gas stations in the area. It is a busy location right off the 163. The way the property is positioned, it’s difficult to get in and out depending what direction you are heading/​going to, though the layout is pretty big for a gas station. Overall, I would go out of my way to get to this station if I felt like filling up at a Chevron. The prices are good and if you live within 10 – 15 minutes of this station, then I’d suggest coming here too.

The technicians here seriously are the best. I was pumping gas one evening after work and I had my 3 year old in the back. I was told to always lock your doors when pumping gas because when you aren’t paying attention, someone can go in to your passenger side and steal your purse. I took the keys out of the ignition to avoid the dinging noise and I locked the doors. I put the keys in the cup holder and left the driver door open. I started pumping gas and walked by the driver door and for some STUPID reason, I closed it. I was locked out of my car with my son inside! Luckily it wasn’t hot, it was very cool and we were in the shade but I panicked and ran inside for help. The cashier grabbed some technicians and they grabbed a tool kit to break in to my car. There was slight damage to my car but I didn’t care. They got me in to my car right away. Thankfully my son was perfectly fine, actually laughing at all of us the entire process. The staff thought quickly and kept me calm and helped me in a very scary situation.

My second scathing review for this «one stop shop». The car wash is shady, this place is just plain crooked. I’ve caught them several times lying about my transmission fluid and tires to get more money out of me. For example I took my car to my mechanic after taking it to these guys and he showed me what a horrible job they did on my brakes. They tell you your transmission fluid is bad when it’s NOT. And they tried to tell me I needed new tires (my tires are all new 80% tread) and subsequently didn’t do the tire rotation that I paid for. Please everyone, go somewhere else! I know I am

Victor at Shift Auto & Tires handles business how a five star hotel takes care their guest excellent!!! But I’m not done yet the car wash amazing I can’t believe it. I will be back.

Horrible place for car wash. The vacuuming sucked. The wash itself was bad. Do not go there not worth it. Also I had lottery tickets that I needed them to check and I think they told me I won less than I had won. Be very careful with these cheating people. I should have read the reviews.

This is one of «those places» that you go to because there is nothing else around. The people that work here are very cocky and unfriendly. It seems as a family owned operation and they just don’t care about customer service. The car wash is 50/​50, depends of they wash their rags that day. Also while waiting for your vehicle to be washed, it smells like dead animal outside ALL THE TIME!!! The worst smell EVER!!! They also so charge $ 3.00 to get cash back to tip their own people. Which says a lot about how they treat the guys outside that are doing all the work. Just come here if I have to. Otherwise I wouldn’t suggest it.

Still getting most of my gas here because they’ve kept competing with the Arco across the street. I suspect this Chevron is the lowest priced Chevron in San Diego. Plus they do the Vons per gallon discount too. Five Stars PLUS — not kidding!

For a gas station this place isn’t bad. It’s just a little crowded because it has an Express Tire, a car wash, a general gas station convenient store, and gets busy because of all the business in the area. I like it because it’s close to work and I just pump and go. It’s nice if you actually need your car washed, or need to get some maintenance done on your car – you can just walk across the street to grab a bite to eat, study, or run some errands. It’s at a convenient location, but it can definitely get overwhelming sometimes, depending on the time of day.
I try to keep my gas to Chevron at 91 Octane.

Went into fill my tank. My prius took 11.75 gallons and it wasn’t empty. I felt like there was a mistake as my car has never taken more than 10.5 gallons and I’ve been on empty before and this fill I was not on empty.
I went into the chevron to talk to the employee, who kept on saying, «nothing I can do.» I said that I wanted to talk to the manager and I left my name and phone number for the manager to call me. He never did. Terrible employee. Terrible service.

I miss eating from Tabe bbq when they had their shop inside the convenience store. Just a normal gas station with average prices and 12 pumps. Most annoying thing about this place would be the people constantly trying to wash your windows/​look for cracks in your windshield while you pump gas. I don’t understand why the owners would allow them to bug customers who are trying to get their gas and go.

Windshield repair pushers aside, I have two gripes:
1) Preauthorized funds from a debit card, but couldn’t pump gas due to some glitch. Went back to re-​swipe, but declined. Asked them to cancel first transaction so I can re-​preauthorize. Told me I would have to wait 3 business days for preauthorization to be cancelled. Left without pumping gas on an almost-​empty tank.
2) Seperate day. Filled up my tank and walked in for cash back. Asked what the limit was. ‘$ 50. But ATM back there gives up to $ 200′ Fine. I only need $ 10. Shopped around for something to buy to get cash back, even stalling at one point unti lthe line of 5 people died down. At the counter, ‘There’s a $ 1 surcharge for cash back.’ The reason I bought something in the first place was to get cash back. ‘The surcharge would be $ 2 without a purchase.’ My thoughts: That’s very crucial information that would have been useful from the beginning. Most anybody would say ‘H311 NO!!!’ If I had to pay $ 2 anyway, I wouldn’t have made a purchase or waited in line. Lastly, how about giving a break to someone who just filled up their gas tank at your facility.
I don’t know if they are pulling some Debit scheme or truly incompetent, but I will avoid this place hereafter. That’s saying a lot, as I work 1 mile away and frequented this place.

Giving them a bad review because they are letting people that misrepresented themselves as Chevron employees working there.
See this Unilocal post about people complaining.

Worse Chevron than normal…
About 10 cents per gallon higher here.
The squeegy is old.
The water is dirty and doesn’t have any special cleaners.
Positives include: large convenience store, good location just off the I-​15, and next to taco bell.

First, don’t trust the sign with the gas prices that they put on Aero. It is the cash price and debit/​credit is usually about 10 cents more per gallon.
Second, expect that someone’s going to try to sell you a windshield repair. Lately it’s been girls that they put out for a complimentary windshield wash. After washing your window they’re going to say you have a chip (no matter how small or nonexistent) and it will take 7 min to repair. It will not actually take 7 min. They’re going to try to tell you that your insurance will pay for it. Don’t fall for this crap.
The car wash is decent but I skip this place and go to the 7 – 11 up the street. I am not interested in being solicited when I’m already paying $ 4.15 a gallon.

I usually just pass by this gas station on my way to Walmart. I did notice that their gas prices are lower than others since I live in the South Bay. Yesterday I gased up and their regular unleaded gas is $ 4.09 compared to where I usually get (7-​Eleven) which is $ 4.11. 7-​Eleven is where I usually get the cheapest gas. I dislike going to Arco and choose to go somewhere else. This Chevron also has a car wash and a oil change station. I have been to the car wash a few times and they always seem to do a good job.

Well I’ve used this place a few times due to its one stop capability for gas, washing, and oil change. They do a ‘good enough’ job on the car wash part (the stuff they use on the dash and interior to make it shiny is extremely greasy. You will have residue on your hands), but don’t expect to much. The oil change on the other hand… they used the wrong oil for my car! I have an Audi S4, it takes 9.5 qts of oil to change it. To spend $ 150 on an oil change and for them to get it wrong is inexcusable. I did catch it from the window sticker reminding me for my next oil change. To there credit they did do another oil change (with the proper oil this time) for free with out question. If you use them, watch them close.

This Chevron always has low gas prices usually any time I go
Pretty big store on the inside also that pretty much looks like a convience store
They also have a car wash/​auto detail/​repair shop on site
Whenever I’m in the area I make sure to stop here & fill up
