Valero Gas Station

E~sy to access to service

Went to fill up gas for my 2 yr old BMW and thought of trying the car wash. After a long wait, it was finally my turn. There was someone at the punching machine to punch in the wash code. After entering the carwash, I followed the instructions on when to stop /​move forward. All it did was spray water on and asked me to move forward with display showing «Complete». I was like WTF! Though at least I would get the dryer to start but that didn’t work either. So I went back inside only to get shouted upon for following the instructions that were shown to me inside the carwash. The owner was very very rude and said he hates customers like me! The only saving grace was that since I did not punch in the code, the co-​owner agreed to re-​issue me a new code.
Stay away from this gas station and carwash!

Moderate-​sized gas station on the corner of Fremont Blvd and Mowry Ave. They have plenty of pumps, a decent car wash, and a small convenience store. Gas prices also tend to be lower here compared to neighboring stations most of the time.
Our only peeve is that their car wash always has a line & it takes forever to go through. Trust us, the car wash isn’t worth the long wait.

Do not use the carwash here! We went to get our two-​weeks-​old car washed and when it was done there were scratches all over the car! Not sure if the equipment is old, or just shitty when made, but avoid this place at all costs. Wish I could give this place negative stars — it doesn’t deserve the one star given by default.

This review is for the car wash, I was there for the second time that day to fill my car and get it washed. While waiting to enter wash the elderly man (owner?) told me i needed to wait a few minutes as they had to go in and fix something, i said OK. He then stood right next to my open window and talked on his cell phone. I asked him nicely to move away, as i was having a private conversation with my daughter. he yelled at me to take a «chill pill» then proceeded to call me a «f — — - B — — » and said he did not give a «S — » if i ever went there again. Don’t worry, I won’t!

I’m a regular customer here always paying at the pump and never having to interact with the people inside. Boy, I wish I had interacted with them soon enough so as to not keep bringing back my business to them. I had to vacuum my car and after paying $ 1.50, only to see the head of the vacuum hose break lose midway as it was all taped together. I went to tell the clerk inside and apparently I wasn’t soon enough for the rude clerk/​supervisor inside (a short clean shaven guy that has no idea what customer service means). He came out and argued that since the vacuum has stopped after reaching the time limit, I didn’t come in soon enough. He basically told me that I should have come inside as soon as I put the $ 1.50 inside. Heck, I wasn’t even asking for a refund and this guy was arguing with me and blaming me as though I cheated him out of $ 1.50. He proceeded to tape it all back together again for the next unsuspecting «customer» of his. I’m never going back here again even if the gas is $ 1 cheaper than elsewhere. No thanks and you can keep the $ 1.50 for you next roll of tape. Way to run a business!

This used to be my go-​to gas station until last week when I came home to a furious husband. He stopped by this Valero to redeem his pre-​paid carwash with an expiration date for that same day. When he had trouble redeeming it after entering the code into the keypad, the attendant couldn’t give a reason why it wouldn’t work and asked that my husband return the following day so that another person could resolve the issue. It wasn’t worth it to make an extra trip back. We emailed the corporate offices letting them know of the poor customer service. Fortunately, our credit card issued us a refund, so we don’t have to deal with this Valero again.

My daughter stopped by after work to have the bird poop washed off her car. She paid for her wash and was surprised when the bird poop wasn’t removed. Shi asked the attendant about it and was told the wash she bought doesn’t remove poop, only dust. However, he did offer to have it go through the poop removing car wash for $ 5.00 cash paid directly to him. Luckily she turned down his kind offer. She is now in our driveway washing the car herself .
Stay away from this Valero unless you want to pay extra to have bird poop removed.
You can’t make this stuff up!

As far as the gas goes it is what it is. This is the only car wash anywhere near to me. So, when I fill up I usually get a car wash which is extra. There is a little guy that is usually running the car wash. He can be nice at times. BUT, he has more then a touch of «Little man’s» syndrome. He always starts yelling at me about not pulling in perfectly straight blah, blah, blah. But, when he is not there I never have any problem going thru without any problems.
I think this is a behavior he uses on women in particular, most men would punch me in his face. It is not easy to understand him because he has a very thick accent and he always looks like he is going to burst a few blood vessels in his nasty little head. He is beyond rude except sometimes it makes me laugh because I can tell, this guy has serious issues and is wound pretty tight. Working in a gas station must be seriously stressful for this poor little dude.

A bit on the pricier side, but spacious and clean. I cant complain. Nice selections of goodies inside as well as a car wash!

Good clean gas station with a small convenience store. It is cheaper to pay cash here than credit.

12 pumps — right in the center of Fremont. Just stopped for gas, they were busy, had to wait for a car pulled out until I could fill up. Gas price on the high side ($ 4.19) compared to other Valero’s.

Very disappointing experience with the supervisor or manager today. Not only did he come out and yell at me when the car wash stopped working (basically blaming me for his car wash malfunctioning). He was rude and condescending. To top it off when I went to put gas in my SUV the pump stops at $ 67!!! Come on even if gas is $ 4/​gallon, it would cost me at least $ 80 to fill my tank. I refuse to give them more money by sliding my card through again when they can easily raise turn off amount on the pump! I will not be using this station anymore. There are two others within a mile or so that I would rather go to those, than this location !

There was a very greedy manager or owner who does not apologize for the misleading information on continuation of vacuum service. He seems like feeling no shame and trying to take money by lying and yelling to customer. His attitude was just unfair and irrespectful. Just be prepared when you need to go inside the store to ask or buy something.

I loved this place, the fried oreo was bomb, garlic fries were very good, too. I have to go back again to try their pb&j, also the fried sandwiches, this lady swore by it so I wanna give it a shot but unfortunately,

I am only reviewing this spot for their little mini mart/​deep fried restaurant.
Some friends and I came to try this place out, mainly for the novelty of eating something deep fried. I had the deep fried PB&J and a Bacon Wrapped Hot Dog. Both were exactly what I was expecting… which was good.
Plus, the man serving the food/​making the food was ridiculously nice. I could tell he really was proud of his makings and wanted to be sure we enjoyed out food.
I had to dock a star because, yes, the food here makes you feel like you’re dying. And I can’t be an entirely supporter of a place that serves death food. But if that’s what you’re looking for, definitely check out this quant, odd, delicious and disgusting place. =)

The service here wins this location all five stars. I just got my first car and had never used a drive through car wash before (at least not with myself behind the wheel), yea yea. So a very nice employee came all the way around to the back and helped us out, even punched in the code for me so I didn’t have to get out of the car. I will definitely go here again for any car washes I need.

Boooo. 4 stars for the mini mart and 2 for the gas station. Within days of writing the original review, these jack asses adopt a new pricing system where there are 2 tiers: one for cash and the other for credit. Debit cards are regarded as credit, so any plastic here, you’re paying more per gallon. Absolutely retarded.
Where you were once real cool Valero, you’ve now managed to become f$%#k’d up, in a time where cool guys are harder to come by, especially in this business. Thanks for being a jack ass… jack ass.
