I get gas here every now and then, and the prices are always more expensive than others but at least it's good gas. This area is pretty well kept although there are some homeless people at the corner. Their car wash is finally open, but their prices are higher than before. Nowhere on their website did it post the prices, so I figured I would drive over and get gas and then check out how much things inflated too! Lol. I used to get my car washed here before when it was nine dollars for a standard wash but at $17 I guess I'll just go wash my car myself. There is a deal for the first month. It's only $10, but then the prices go up the following month! I guess I'll just stick with the gas since I know Chevron with Teron burns pretty clean on my car. read more

Chevron Stations - 8/25": prices - Gas Stations Near Me - San Jose, California

1704 Saratoga Ave San Jose, CA 95129 While cruising thru San Jose on the way to the freeway, I stopped here to get gas and use the restroom. I carry the Chevron gas card, so I usually get a small discount. This station features: - carwash - food mart - 1 pump per island - restroom The clerk was very cool, and pointed out the restroom. It was fairly clean. Afterwards, I walked around the ExtraMile shop and looked at the snacks and candy. The hotdogs looked old and overcooked on the warmer. There was a sale on candy. But with such high prices, it didn't seemed like much of a deal. Reg UL was $5.69/ gal. April 2024, that's average in the SF Bay Area. I didn't use the carwash, so no comment on a wash. read more

Don't be fooled by the free car wash promo. Besides being absolutely terrible at actually washing the car, the cloth swivels used to clean the cars are disintegrating. Two got stuck between the panels of the car and took an hour to get out. NEVER AGAIN! read more

The Indian lady with the short hair and the loud mouth is always b****ing at every customer. She's offensive to everyone, pushy, almost abusive. Saw her today being totally racist to another customer. She was very mean to me and being a chevron credit card holder and as a family spending at least $3,000 a month and paying it off in full, she should have a little respect for us. I hope she will be fired- she's been there for a while and if she's working in the shop I will turn around and walk out and go to another chevron. I don't know her name. But by my description, you'll know her. Only not giving 1 star because the other workers are quite pleasant. read more

This review is for the car wash. Just a PSA that when the car wash expiry says a certain date, the car wash is no longer valid on that date (need to redeem the car wash by the day before the printed date). Hopefully the two different workers that I called earlier in the day that told me the car wash is still valid and wasted an hour of my time to drive out of my way to redeem an expired car wash will inform others better next time. No refund, no override to get a car wash, nothing except a "nothing we can do about it". read more

This chevron station has good gas and if you shop at safeway you can use your rewards and get 20 cents cheaper gas!

Update- Ran into the manager who I previously wrote a review about. She was a lot more friendly today, I don't think she recognized me. But overall it was the customer service I should've been given the 1st time around. I gave 4 stars because two of her family members have sent threats and have harassed to me via yelp. Hopefully the owner will address that. read more

The washer doesn't work and even though the person in charge ( Thapa)he knew but he still charges you for the premium wash and when you ask for a re wash he will ask you to come back the next day and when I return the next day the cashier said that it's being not working for few days and to call next week to check if it get fixed, so I washed my car at the classic car wash and got their membership because I'm not going to drive a dirty car during the weekend ,finally I'm trying to wash my other car and he wants to argue why I'm driving a different car, excuse me you want me to wait to the whole weekend to clean my , and scream not fear, it's not fear to charge and you know your machine is not working, sonI asked for money back and he said no money back and put a code for the cheapest car wash, while I paid for the premium, but that's only because he's a cheap ass . read more

Use their car wash and I followed the directions. I entered the car wash and it it was putting soap on my car. Then suddenly it stop which I waited 1-2mins. I had to drive off since there is no way u can't get out. They blame the customer that they didn't follow the institutions. They ask for my name and number for what?! They instructions said wait until the car before is finish and then put the code. It doesn't specifically say when they are fully done from the dryer. Make clear instructions! read more

The service was amazing cashier was super nice definitely a good place will be coming back

Unfortunately, this place is taking a turn for the worse. Are used to come here for car washes, but I've given them a couple of tries lately. First I paid for a wash and I got the wrong one when I drove the vehicle in. Just today I washed my car again to give them one last try and the car wash didn't spray down my car. It's soaped it down and then gave it a little trickle, despite me having washed my car there many other times and know that it should be a pressure wash. I went in to tell them that it wasn't working and ask if I could either try it again or get a refund. They took me into a back room to show me where you can clearly see that my car did not get pressure washed and the person told me that it's because I selected soft touch. It doesn't make any sense but basically my car is covered in a layer of soap and they wouldn't do anything about it. They basically said yeah that's the way our wash works. It's not a cheap car wash so if you're looking to get your car wash, I suggest you go someplace else. I will. read more

This car wash is absolute trash. Worst $15 I ever spent. Came out of the wash and it had missed spots on literally every side of the car including the top. Don't waste your time or money. read more

Really bad services, you cant get your receipt from the gas pomp, you have to go inside so I wen inside and looks like the owner I asked for my receipt and He acted in a rude way come on!! Is my receipt. I didn't like it at all their services. read more

I was at this location recently for gas and thought I'd get car wash as well. For some reason the pump didn't print my receipt and I didn't realize I didn't have the code until I got to the car wash entrance. There were few other cars behind me at that point. I went to the store but the cashier wasn't there. I looked around inside and outside and yelled hello few times. And then the manager (I think his name was Ravi) came outside promptly, and he helped me . I was a little frustrated because the cars were honking by now and cashier not being there. As an apology, he upgraded my wash to premium and gave another free wash for next time. read more

Just a very nice automated touch less car wash. I did the 11 dollar option and very happy about it. It is obviously not perfect so I had to clean windows manually but I couldn't really expect more from it - worth every dollar. read more

I was there to fill air on my tire but it was my first time ever doing it and I had no idea how to. I requested a cashier to help me but he said they were not allowed to. I was stressed how to make the machine work but then the manager named Ravi came and he verbally told me all the steps and made sure he stayed there to watch me do everything correctly. I was able to fill the air on my tire by myself which I didn't know I was capable of. Thank you Ravi for going above and beyond to help me. read more

Worst car wash and customer service ever. A lady in front of my parked her car in the car wash lane then walked into the gas station for help because her code would not work. The cashier gave her a new code and she walked back to her car and tried the code, which did not work either. She went back into the gas station and 10 minutes later came back out and the code finally worked. I waited behind her for 20 minutes while a long line formed behind me. Unacceptable. Then the car wash was slow and did not even do a decent job of washing my car. read more

I was at this chevron a week back and tried to fuel up my car ,for some reason the pump that I was in wasn't working and I kept trying it for so long,I also asked a cashier to help me out but the cashier was somewhat busy and couldn't help me while I was stuck there for so long,and the manager walked in towards me and asked me if I needed any help ,I explained him the entire thing and he helped me ,not only that he saw my car and also offered me a free car wash to make me feel good ,he was such a genuine person ,he even offered me a cup Of coffee. I was very impressed,it's good to see that people like him still exist . read more

NOTE: This review is for Car Wash ONLY. The car wash here is the touchless/brushless drive through car wash. Their machine seems slightly old but it still does the job, the quick rinse if you don't have the time to take your car to an actual car wash place. Like every other Chevron car wash, the price increased; $10 The Wash, $9 Delux, $7 Express. Overall I think it is a pretty good car wash for what it is. read more

God awful. Went through the car wash, the dryer came on for 2 seconds and then flat out stopped. The manager argued that the dryer was working...um no, it stopped after 2 seconds, its quite simple. He refused to give me another wash. Im never going back and this car wash js right around the corner. Treat your customers better. read more

Honestly, I have no idea how a gas station can really get two stars, aside from expensive gas prices and rude service, which I have experienced neither here! The prices always seem to be fair, the employees are friendly (my cashier today was even wearing latex gloves when handling money!), and they have a freaking car wash! The car wash is regular prices and it's very quick. I've always thought the job was well done also! I mean, it's an automatic car wash, it's not being done by hand. And they use rain-x, which I really like! If you purchase a car wash you do not have to redeem it immediately. They give you one week to do so. Also, if you have Safeway gas rewards points, you can use them here! Don't forget to do so when paying at the pump. It's usually the first option before you swipe your card. read more

Wow! Well deserved ratings and reviews. Poor customer service. Middle of the afternoon fuel refill. I do not mind holding up the line at the pump to write this review( shrug). Had to walk in to ask why my card will not swipe. Picture on the pump is faded. Had to walk in..I WAS going to "top off" (aviation term). Only put in enough fuel, do not care to give my business anymore. The thrill is over. Cashier was not helpful. Leave it at that. read more

Better customer service, I surprised when I see review from lady , I was behind her and she was throwing leftover food. She should throw outside not inside. She should know about it. You ate outside your food and leftover trying to throw inside? I heard she was requesting to you if you can throw your your plate outside. I am a customer but some customer are really act like Karen .. I love this gas station, people are so good and friendly here. read more

Your vacuum machine doesn't work, but just charging money. Its better to repair it or put a big note to people can see that

This Chevron is less than a year old. Although it has a Saratoga Avenue street address, the gas station actually fronts Campbell Avenue. It's located at the corner of Saratoga & Campbell Avenue. Very centralized location across from the Century 25 dome theater, 76, Westgate Mall and faces Target. A Mimi's Cafe & a Red Robin are just a few doors down. What I like most about this Chevron is its brushless touch-free car wash in the back of the station. Nothing comes into contact with your car's precious paintwork except water, soap suds, liquid wax and air as the Laserwash 4000 works it's magic. Not even wheel guides which often mess up your chrome rims and 22" Pirellis. You have total control of your car during the whole wash cycle. The cycle starts with you rolling the car over powerful jets which washes the undercarriage. Then after you come to STOP, powerful rotating jets start blasting away all the grime, bird poop, dead bugs & other remnants of road kill. The jets first sweeps from right to left across the front and hood, then rotate 90 degrees to sweep from front to rear and repeats the cycle from rear left to right flushing all the loose debris and soap off the car. Your wash status i.e. 'car is soaking', 'clear coat protectant', 'spot free rinse' etc is shown by the lighted signs on the driver's side. I wouldn't be surprised if you feel the earth shake if you have a Mini Cooper. My car felt like it got hit by a tsunami. Next comes the pink soapy solution that rains all over the chassis. The wash cycle comes again followed by a nice rinse cycle. When the light turns green, you roll your entire car under air blowers to get it dry. I'd estimate the whole wash to be about 6-7minutes tops. HINT: To maximize the dry coverage, try inching your vehicle forward at an inch a minute. I mean REAL SLOOOW. There's nothing to prevent you from reversing to dry out any missed spot, but remember to pull forward after you're done or there'll be a major accident waiting to happen in that car wash. The basic express soap-rinse-dry cost $6 and goes up to $10 for the premium wash like the Rain X. For the convenience of not having to get out of the car, I think its competitive with the handwash places. I love it when I see the water beading 'coz that's when I know the rain repellent solution they use is effective. read more

Shell carwash on Winchester/Williams scratched my car so I am never doing that again, and I don't want to spend $20 on a car wash. At first this car wash (brush free) seemed like a great idea, but here are a few things you might want to know: 1) You will get no cost down by filling up at this station, so you might as well take advantage of cheaper prices elsewhere. 2) Their fill up is completely screwed up. Somehow my tank had about 60-80 miles less in it when I filled up here, than any other gas station. I reset my odometer during each fill up to track gas usage. At first I thought it was my car, but then I filled up somewhere else and it was back to normal. Considering $4/gal cost they owe me $12 3) If you accidentally choose the wrong wash, you better make sure the manager is on site or they won't fix it. Unless you want weather proofing, I suggest the $8 car wash option. 4) You have to time the drying time by driving through. The clock is fast, so you have about 10 more seconds than it says. Take your time. Overall, not bad for a cheap car wash, but I suggest you have a towel in your car for last drop drying. read more

Stole my money... essentially! I drove up to the carwash, but it didn't want to take my $5 bills, so I went and paid at the pump. Turned around to go get the carwash, and they'd closed it for maintenance. That was all well and good, but they REFUSED to reimburse the money I spent on the carwash, even though they admitted that it would not be available for at least 30 minutes! So, one star for the fact that the pumps took my money and gave me the car wash code. NEGATIVE stars for the machine that wouldn't accept my 'new' $5 bills. EXTRA NEGATIVE stars for the awful attendant who refused to reimburse my money or offer any alternatives. read more

a simple car wash has never pissed me off so much.. first off, it takes forever to get inside if there is even the smallest of lines. There were three cars in front of me and I waited almost 40 minutes to get the hell out of there. I also had to wipe all the excess gunk off of my car afterwards. Yes, it is cheap but I have had car washes that were only 8 dollars that cleaned my car better than this place. It is a glorified rinse. There is no scrubbers so it relies on water pressure so DO NOT come here if you have anything that might require some extra scrubbing. read more

Horrible car wash don't go here! Pay a little more to go to a car wash that actually takes dirt off your car, because this one does not. Don't want to have to take my car twice thru every time. Took it a second time thru and same result. Never coming back here to get my car washed again! read more

Beware using your credit card on the car wash kiosk. It didn't give me a receipt though I pressed "Yes" when it asked. I just shrugged it off until I noticed an extra $126 pending charge on my card immediately following the $6 for the car wash. So I print out a copy of my online statement and brought it in to inquire about it. Just as my patience was about to run out the cashier lady tells me to come back on Monday (2 days later) to see her manager because she's just a cashier and can't really do anything. The pending charge disappeared by the end of the day so I guess the problem resolved itself? I will give benefit of the doubt that this was a flub in the system and not some shady business going on. I've been coming here for years without complaints because this is the closest Chevron to my house and I have a Chevron/Texaco business gas card, but I will be avoiding this place from now on because too much about this experience was off-putting. read more

If there is zero star, i would have give that. This is a scam. I went to get gas for my car. As usual, I would sit in my car for it to fill up. This time the pump was very very slow. After 15-20 mins, i checked and the gas was spilling out from both sides of the pump like sprinkler. I looked at the guy inside the gas station and he was staring at me as if he already noticed the spill for awhile. Why didn't he turn off the pump? Wasted all these gas. But the most important thing was i could have been killed if there was a spark. I feel like this is a scam so the gas station owner could get few extra bucks from their customers. But this is so dangerous........i will never never go back to this gas station again. read more

OK so I'm not sure if this is just all Chevron stations or just this one, but I did not receive a discount on a car wash with my 8 gallon fill up! Chevron gas is uber expensive and I only fill up there when my car needs a wash. But with no car wash discount available as an incentive, that means no more future visits to this Chevron and perhaps any other Chevron out there. Bring back the discounted car wash!!! read more
