Came by for a fill-up the other day and it was a mediocre experience. This Valero is easy to get in and out of. It also featured Top Tier fuel. Cash pricing is a few cents cheaper than credit pricing. They have a car-wash on-site with premium pricing. The payment island sometimes work. Some of the NFC readers are non-operational and some of the receipt printers are out of commission. Receipts are available with the attendant as long as the attendant isn't on "break" read more

Yes, they provide restroom, and window shield liquid, tissues are useful, the gas quality not good for longer drives, usually the price is lower. read more

Grand Gas - Gas - Car Wash Near Me - San Jose, California

I was having a bad day, not paying attention, and made a mistake--I drove away with the gas pump hose still attached to my car. The hose detached from the pump, and I gave the attendant my info. A couple of hours later, I drove by and saw that they had reattached the hose, and it was operational again. Fast forward a couple of weeks, and I find out they made an insurance claim against me for over $2,000. After reading online, I discovered that this price seems unusually high. I called my insurance company, and they told me that while it's within the range they've seen, it's definitely on the high end. It all depends on who the gas station uses to reconnect the hose. Some parts may need to be replaced, but a large portion of the cost is labor. I understand I made a mistake and am willing to pay for it, but when I see a claim this high, it doesn't feel fair. This is going to affect my future premiums, and as a customer, it feels a bit excessive. I'll be going elsewhere in the future. read more

Not the same. This used to be my favorite gas station because of its lower prices for gas and car wash. Even when hmart came in across the street along with other businesses that brought a lot of traffic to this area, the prices were still low (thought over the years, car washes would go up by a dollar or two). Recently gas prices and car wash prices went way up. WAY UP. Yes they improved their car wash, but no way am I going to pay $27 for a drive thru car wash when I can get interior and exterior done BY HAND for $10 more at Santana Row. I used to come out of the way to get gas and car washes here but I won't be back. Go to Valero on Stevens Creek and De Anza for gas or SV Express Car Wash in Mountain View for drive thru car wash of the old car wash prices here. read more

Grand Gas - Oct 2020 prices - Car Wash Near Me - San Jose, California

Nice new carwash, easy to use and no line. Plus a convenient location next to 85, have used it multiple times now

Tricky pricing. Paid cash and the pump charged the credit price. I told the station attendant of the mistake and he said no mistake...cash price is the cash price only when you buy a car wash. If not, you pay cash but get charged the higher credit card price. Everywhere else in America when you pay cash you get the cash price... except at this Valero station. read more

When looking for a cheap gas station in San Jose that was close to the freeway I found Valero. The gas is nearly .30 to .40 cents cheaper per gallon than the Chevron directly across the street, but if you pay cash you can save more. It may seem like chump change to some, but if your a commuter like me - you stick to the stations that are consistently lower than others. All I care about is saving money and getting my car back on the road before the commute piles up again. read more

I paid for a car wash but when it was my turn, the machine didn't work. I had to leave the line which was super frustrating as the line was really slow (waited around 45 minutes for three cars ahead of me). I went inside to talk to the cashier about the issue but after explaining my issue, he asked me to wait on the side and then left because his shift ended. So I wasted another 25 minutes inside the store waiting around for someone who had no intention of helping me. I had to reexplain my issue to the new cashier who eventually helped me by giving me credit to come back and get my car washed at another time since at that point, I was running late for another appointment. I will not be coming back here. read more

I got the deluxe car wash option. After getting home I found the car still dirty - the top and the trunk cover are both unclean as if they weren't washed at all. I immediately drove back (1.5mi) asking for another wash or a refund. The clerk rudely refused. Her reason: I already drove away the car after wash, and it was my fault that I chose the touch free option. I told her: I paid you to wash my car and you didn't wash it clean. How was that my fault? This clerk was rude and kept on insisting it was my fault. I will not do business with this deceptive and rude shop. read more

The workers at this gas station always treat me fairly and kindly. I walk in with a smile and treat them as I treat anyone else and they always take care of me when I come in for gas, snacks, or a car wash. If you have a problem with the staff then I suggest you check your attitude the next time you walk into a gas station. Kindness goes a long way for customers! read more

I used to go out of my way just to come to this gas station to get a car wash because the prices were fair but recently the price for a car wash went up significantly, it's absolutely ridiculous. I felt ripped off paying $18 for the most basic car wash. I will no longer come back here for a car wash unless the price goes back down to what it was before. Until then I'll be going to other places to wash my car. read more

Mary was very helpful. I came in after having dinner at Tasty-Pot for some cigarettes and she got me in and out in no time; she was also very precautious and aware, as she was mopping the floor, she told me to be careful because it was wet. Manager/Store Owner, if you see this, give Mary a raise, please. She's one of the more better workers that are actually here at this Valero. read more

This is a review for the car wash. During this Shelter at Home, my car was in need of bath. I remembered this gas station has a car wash, so I went over to see if it was opened, as many other car wash locations are closed. I drove up to the car wash and selected the type of wash I wanted and started to proceed into the car wash. Surprisingly, the car wash was pretty thorough. It would have been nice if the dryer lasted a full minute, but at least my car was clean. The price was good for the wash the car received. I'll be back. read more

Change of ownership? Price of gas and car wash sky rocketed. Good Luck for this location As of now this place is very empty read more

Car wash is out of order but would not refund money. No signs indicating it's out of order other than a single cone in the driveway, so they keep taking money from people at the pump. Deceptive. The women at the cash register was extremely rude and yelling. read more

Cheaper than the neighbors, TV screen at the pump, and a $7 car wash. Remarkably bum free for a car wash gas station. Be warned: the snake-like line is hidden, so you don't see it until you are in. read more

I usually come here for the affordable car wash. They increased the price from $6 to $7 for the cheapest car wash. It's not amazingly clean but good enough for me- it removed most of the dust and dirt. It's affordable, quick and convenient. I'm lazy to wash my car on my own so as long as they don't increase the prices again I will keep coming back! read more

I answered "yes" to the option of wanting a car wash or not when I was pumping gas here. I then joined the car wash line immediately afterward. I proceeded to the car wash line, which I could see was backing up. As I learned about 15 minutes later, the car wash broke down and people ahead were trying to exit. No problem, I would just plan to return a week later when I return from my trip. Upon my return, I discovered that my car wash ticket expired after seven days. I returned on the eighth day. I explained the broken car wash situation to the person at the cashier, telling them that the car wash was broken when I first went through and then I had to leave town for one week on business. He did not care and refused to discuss. No refund. No credit. Just ignored me and tended to the next customer. No refunds, no car wash after ticket expiration. One star for being rude and truly unfair. read more

No line for the car wash on a Saturday morning. Nice! Oh. Wtf. That's why. The basic, express wash used to be $8. Now it's $18. No wonder the place was so empty. Same exact car wash, just more than double the price now. Whoever own this gas station is greedy, greedy scum. read more

This is 1 of 3 gas stations right by each other. They have inexpensive gas. Definitely cheaper than Chevon but slightly more than Rotten Robbies. I go here since it does not require a membership or any of that nonsense. read more

This has been my go to Valero station for a while now. It helps break up my evening commute home when I have to do a fill up. Yesterday, for the first time, I got a $6 car wash here. For $6 it didn't create a perfectly clean car but my car was well overdue after not being washed for over a year. After all we are in California and we are in a drought, so no I am not crazy! Supposedly after purchasing 5 car washes here the 6th one is free but that requires going inside and I don't have time for that! I'll keep coming back to this Valero as long as it stays convenient and the prices stay competitive. 2016 Review #38 read more

As the paint on the keypad of the gas station worn out, I entered the zip code of my credit card wrong. Surprisingly, I found three $1 charges pending on my credit card in addition to the gasoline charge. I tried to call the station to dispute the charges but it asked me to leave a message. However, the mailbox was full. Why should I be penalized for entering my zip code wrong? read more

Their "new" carwash is from the 80s - its super slow and takes one car at a time. Plus to enter the code, you have to wait for the other car to be completely out of the wash! I just spent 30 minutes in the line, couldn't get out because of cars behind me. Do not fall for this scam!!! read more

Grand Gas - Car Wash Near Me - San Jose, California

It's unfortunate that finding a good and cheap carwash in South Bay is harder than finding a soulmate... This carwash breaks down or gets confused from time to time and would not start the washer when the car is inside. Sometimes, the cashier has a clue and can reset it to make it work again. But yesterday when the same issue happened to me, I called the woman working at the register for help. She simply blamed me that it was my own mistake -- apparently she didn't know how to reset the machine. There were 3 cars behind me. She told me to move my car out of the carwash to line up in the back again. Since I waited 20 minutes to get to that spot, I think not! So I simply demanded a refund. But she refused! She said that she could at most give me another code that is good for 7 days, which means if I want to use it, I would have to save that receipt, remember to revisit within a week, bring the receipt, and try my luck again! Sorry, even if I didn't have a job, I didn't want to be forced to return to the area again. And did she think that gas (for driving back there) is free? Or she thought that her carwash was a fancy tourist attraction that everyone should come back again and again? After a somewhat heated argument -- as I simply was mad that she kept saying that it was my own fault, I told her to call her manager. She again refused in the beginning but after wasting another 10 minutes, she reluctantly did so and apparently the manager decided to give me my money back. I wouldn't go there again, and neither should you unless you like arguing with some rude shopkeeper who liked to blame you for their machine's problem. read more

I pass by this station once in a while, but not regularly. I did notice that it has some of the lowest gas prices in the area, every time I check prices on my Gas Buddy mobile app. Yesterday I had to get gas and get a car wash, as I driver for commercial purposes too, so I need to get car washes rather frequently. Gas prices were great, for both cash and credit (little higher), although the pump was rather slow.... The car wash is one of the cheapest around, $5 express, $6 deluxe, and $8 for the premium option. I went for the $6 option. You can also get a Buy-5-Get-1-free carwash card in the store (not at the pump), and the clerk reminds you to save all your receipts to show all 5 when it's time to redeem. I'll look forward to coming back again for more gas and my next car wash! read more

stay far away from these guys! their pump was very very slow to fill, which is indicative of a clogged filter....such a problem results in a low back pressure which does NOT auto-stop the pump and therefore causes the gas to overflow from my tank and spill all over my car and onto the ground... when i talked to the manager he insisted i was holding down the trigger to let the gas spill out everywhere and would not help me in any way...he was rude and incredibly difficult to talk to so stay far far away from these guys. they go cheap on their filters and then blame customers for their own negligence would give 0 stars if possible read more

WORST CAR WASH EVER. Takes forever, breaks frequently. Don't bother even trying. Pumps are slow too. Bathroom is simple but mostly clean.

I paid $13 for the "Deluxe" touchless wash, which seemed like a fair price. The results were poor, though. I had to clean my SUV again when I got home. I have used other touchless car washes before with much better results. I think the spray pressure was too low. I won't be using this Valero car wash again. read more

The car wash doesn't use soap and they only clean the sides. I bought the $7 express wash. The machine sprayed water (no soap) on the sides. The brushes lightly touched the sides and then the machine sprayed more water and then dried. The hood was literally untouched. The windshield was dry as was the back of the car. Even the parts they "washed" are still dirty because they didn't use any soap. Incredible rip off. They should be ashamed. read more

Went here a couple months ago, couldn't get the car wash to work.... Twice.... Went back to the cashier and asked for a refund. Was denied... Wouldn't call a supervisor, manager, anyone... She said because she let me go through the car wash a second time (After the first $9 car wash I paid for, failed to work), that she can't give me a refund. I explained that I paid money for a service that I did not receive... Therefore you're supposed to give me my money back. Long story short I left visibly upset and was going to dispute it with my credit card, but realized I wasn't going to let getting burned for $9 ruin my day. In return, I won't be returning to a Valero unless it's to get my $9 back. P.S. Cashiers name is Gisella. read more
