The environment was great the car wash was so clean and great gas prices I highly recommend this station

No restroom. Paying all these high prices for gas and I can't even use the restroom while I wait.

Car wash broke with my car soapy. Mgr. said it was my fault and refused a $12 refund. Arrogant mgr who also refused to give me any info of who his boss is. read more

So rude, I tried to get a car wash and for one there was no assistance the person from the register came to help me and he was so rude . He didn't really direct me to what I had to do. At the end he told me "just get out" worst 10 dollars spent of my life . read more

Experience: the man working inside is really nice and wears his mask. He also keeps the doors open during the day for fresh air. The gas prices are not great though. $4.59 a gallon today for regular gasoline. This place does have a drive-through car wash you can also pay for and use. The other downside of this gas station is how many homeless people and drug addicts or people with mental health issues, screaming at the air, are hanging around. It's definitely not a safe area. read more

This place closes at 11pm. I just rolled up at 10:19pm to a fully lit normal gas station. I get out and toss some trash away and pull out my wallet at the pump to put gas in my empty car and as I go to put my card in the slot (at 10:21pm) the guy inside turns off all the power to the pumps and the lights. Just kills power to everything and it suddenly goes completely dark. Dipping out 5 minutes early is one thing but shutting down with a customer out there 39 minutes early is a little much hahaha. I'm not normally a negative Yelper but that was wild...work ethic 0/10 . read more

this place is always dirty cashier female and there's another female also that both have a very nasty attitude and gas prices are to high car wash always breaks down managers is very nice but the females need to go. read more

"Elite" Kristen A is full of shit. Sometimes I trust Waze too much when it directs me to take Del Dios to get to work. While the directions save time, there is also no gas station for 12 miles. So when my tank is empty this is my last chance... You really don't make Express Fuel your gas station of choice. It's a generic gas provider ( Sketchy / possibly loaded with credit card readers / generally unclean ) that is the staging area for pan handlers. The kicker it that sell their gas for the same or more as any big named company. read more

So expensive! I'm pretty sure it's cheaper to run out of gas, have my vehicle towed to the closest gas station than actually gas up here. I had no choice and threw a few bucks in just to get to a cheaper station. Take note, it's 40-50 cents higher than any other local station. Won't return. read more

How much for premium!? Damn! Next time I need to plan accordingly since this place charges an arm and a leg for gas... Smh read more

Just as expensive as the big brands in Escondido, and even after I bought $60 worth of gas, they had no restroom available. This place bites the big one and the employees clearly aren't paid enough to give a damn. read more

No public bathroom. High gas prices in the middle of nowhere...taking advantage of gas desert. Everything is dirty and gross here too. The worst. Don't go! Boo!! read more

Pretty dismal. The pump I ended up at was broken and I had to go in to make it work which I hate to do. I know I know, its a gas station but if you can help it at all I would say skip this stop. read more

Make sure you bring cash, this place charges an extra 10cents per gallon! For using credit card. They have a carwash, that i've used once and will never use again. Better one down the street. read more

I take my car to this place every time I need an oil change. It is also the only time I get my car washed. However, they always do a great job. You can leave your car and go grab lunch nearby at a host of restaurants. Once they have changed my oil and washed the car, they call promptly. They have a great deal if you have a regular car which is $35 for a wash and lube. My car uses synthetic oil and it is about $80 - so great price and great service. I don't take great care of my car, but there aren't a whole lot scratches. They always make my car look brand new, even scrubbing my rims. read more

Regular gas station with a mini mart. No restrooms available. Nice location because the only other places around are fast food places.

DO NOT GET A CAR WASH HERE! Soap was still left on my car after the wash. When I complained to the employee she asked me what kind of wash I got. I told her the $12 wash (the best they offer). She said, "It's common sense drive-through car washes won't get your car completely clean." WHAT? Apparently I don't have common sense. Look, I don't expect much from a $12 car wash but I do expect it not to look worse when it's finished. The employee called the manager who said she'd have to check the video tapes the next day (to see if I was telling the truth) and if she sees soap then I can come back and get another wash. I don't live close so I was sh** outta luck. She also said," I haven't had any complaints this week about the car wash." That is neither here, nor there. Unfortunately, I don't read reviews of gas stations/ car washes prior to going, because it looks like I'm not the only one who's experienced a problem along these lines. The employees have no respect for their customers, and the company's business practices are borderline immoral. read more

The worst customer service I have ever experienced. I got gas around 10:30pm and was given the option to get a car wash. I chose a car wash and after I was done fueling, no receipt came out. So I went to the person working and she said they were closed and could do nothing about it. I asked for a receipt and she said she couldn't give me one. When a customer asks for their receipt, you better give them a receipt!! I can't believe this. She said her name is Reina and I can't believe how she treats customers. Absolutely rude! NOT HELPFUL AT ALL. You owe me money for the car wash I never got, Express Fuel! So pissed. read more

Avoid like the plague. People here are so rude. Car wash broke down on me and it seemed the we're happy to not even offer apology let alone a refund or a re-run through town get washed correctly. read more

Always come here to put diesel in my truck and half the times their diesel turbines are off. If you come before 5 30 am then don't bother

I just realized and thought about this review. I used to go here all the time. One day, their car wash machine was broken and didn't dry my car fully (half of it was broken). I asked for a full refund, and they wouldn't give it to me, so I told them I would never come back. 4 years later, and thousands of dollars in gas purchases lost from me, I have not gone back there. Fix your terrible policy and I might come back there. read more

They have a price for credit and a different price for debit, but when pumped the debit price is the same as the credit price. When I asked the attendant, she didn't know why they show different prices on the sign and didn't offer to find out. read more

I have been going to this Gas Station my entire life. The spot is extremely convenient for getting on or off the I-15, and the workers are always very nice and in a good mood. The gas is cheap and the car wash cleans amazingly. I would highly recommend this gas station. read more

Car wash didn't work. Informed the attendent who was so annoyed she had to come out of the back while listening to music on her phone. Made her call her manager since I'm not paying $10 for a no soap car spray down that I could do with a hose! Turns out I was the 2nd person that day who complained and nothing happened. Manager told me the car wash was "at my own risk" and basically to F off. Nice. Never coming back to such poor cuatomer service and faulty equipment. read more

Don't use this car wash. It sucks. Stopped here for gas and saw they had a car wash. So, I buy the cheapest one. I've been through many a $6 car wash and I know what to expect. But what I found after this one was a funky film on all of my windows. So I asked the guy next to me if this had happened to him, and he says, yeah, it doesn't do a very good job. So I go to the clerk to ask for my money back and she says the exact same thing! Is this seriously what we've come to? Why would you sell a product that you know "doesn't do a very good job?" And also leaves my car MORE DIRTY than it was before the wash?? Couldn't get my money back but did use about half a bottle of their Windex to thoroughly scrub all of my windows inside and out. Just don't stop here. read more

Most effed up gas station ever. There's no traffic control, people approached the tanks from various sides preventing access to vacant spots. People were giving up and backing out. Most of the tanks had signs on them saying to go inside to use your credit card. The hoses aren't long enough to stretch around the car. On the plus side the clerk was really nice when I vented at him. read more

I have always thought one of the basic laws of the known universe is: If you own a gas station close to a freeway, you provide a bathroom that customers can use. Even in California, and even though I live in Arizona I am well aware that most convenience stores in Ca. do not have bathrooms. But a gas station next to a freeway is completely different, people are usually conversing great distances over the freeways and in cities there are very few rest areas around. So this place did not have a bathroom and probably 200 yds from the freeway exit. Just completely unacceptable they do not provide a restroom. I was very fortunate there is a Burger King next to it but that is ridiculous, now I feel guilty using their restroom without purchasing anything. To the owners of Express Fuel: Stop being so cheap and build a restroom or at least have the decency of providing a spot on your sign indicating no restroom available. Also, the gas was not cheap. The reason I chose it driving in was because sole proprietor gas companies are usually cheaper. I was wrong but not other gas station in site so I sucked it up. read more

Terrible customer service. I tried to pump regular gas but the super lit up. I stopped pumping to tell the cashier who assured me that I was pumping regular. When i realised price I went back in and she tried to tell me it was used error. So now I get to pay more and have you make me feel like I don't know how to push the button I want. Gee thanks. Tried to call... Nothing. read more

Used car wash today. The brush broke my front wiper. Asked attendant about it, he said since my car was older then a 2011 they would not be able to assist in repair or refund car wash. Asked to speak with manager and he gave me the number of the gas station. This car wash has a busted brush (I know because I removed parts of it from my destroyed wiper) and the attendant just allowed three cars behind me to use it. Guys, it's a gas station and car wash take responsibility for the business. Plenty of them in the area. Fuck this place, they deserve all the negative reviews posted. read more

I walk in and no clerk. I wait 5 mins and clerk comes out. I purchased chips and he didn't know the price. I exit the right for because 5 people are coming in. The door is locked on right. At the bottom is a sign that states use left door. The clerk said can't you read the sign? I replied that if you would put the sign at eye level then maybe we could see it. read more

Great car wash that gave me a squeaky clean car so couldn't really ask for much more. Employees are respectful and down to earth every time I stop by. Definitely my go to for a quick stop before or after work and convenient location off the 15. Not to mention gas prices are ACTUALLY reasonable given the gas market these days... read more

I live in San Diego and was in Escondido on business. I needed fuel and stopped at Express Fuel. They advertise car washes and I purchased a $7.00 wash. I get to the entrance to the car wash and a big sign states " left blower not working" I went ahead inside the car wash and nothing happened, no water, no nothing. I go back inside to the cashier who refuses to refund my money! She tells me that car washes are non-refunable. I tell her I didn't get a car wash, go look at my car. She gives me the managers phone number I give her my phone number. So far, the manager, Mark, has not returned my call. It is not about the $7 it is the principal. I have never written a Yelp review and if I could have I would have given them a "0"!!! read more
