Not worth it!! Of course if you are fine with Black Friday shopping type of atmosphere and you are that desperate penny pinching, then this is for sure your place. Came here for car wash and the thing broke, long a** waiting line. After 40 minutes I asked for my money back. They made me fill out a paper, clerk didn't even apologize for inconvenience, and the machine still not worked! Came back for gas dreading it, only because it was right before the freeway. What happens? Crazy people fighting with their cars for a spot and HOARDING pumps!, like they were giving gas for free. Disgusting... I do not mind at all paying the regular price at a Shell or Chevron. Not like I could really contribute to my 401K with the extra pennies saved any ways. read more

I drive through a lot of the LA area and this is one of my favorite places to fill up. Clean, aesthetically pleasing and most importantly the best gas prices around read more

The sodas are not cold and they don't offer ice. They don't have bags either. It's ironic for a food mart that seems to pride itself with the "We got it!" motto. read more

United Oil - Gas Stations Near Me - Carson, California

Went in for a car wash and will never go back! The machine didn't work the first time around and I had to go back in fill out a form, get a refund and then have them charge my card a second time! Customer service is horrible, when I called from the car wash the guy hung up on me because he "was too busy"..when I did go in all four employees were very rude. This is a nice location, but the people here sure aren't! read more

If zero stars was an option I would rate this station and company as such. This United Oil has Horrible Customer Service. The cashier Cherrie and the Manager Adela are two rude individuals who should not have jobs that deal with the public. They made an error at the pump and then approached me as if I committed a crime, taking pictures of my vehicle and called the police. I have never encountered such treatment and I will push my car on empty before I get Gas from another United Oil station. I'm still waiting for a call back from either Myrna the customer service supervisor or from Adela's supervisor. read more

I went for a carwash and my car was damaged. The corporate said they did an investigation and inspected their carwash. They said they didn't find a malfunction on their machine that resulted on my car damage. So they said they are not responsible for the damage. I know they say this to everyone that complains to them. read more

I guess they upgraded their car wash system and looks like you can swipe your card on the "pay station" now! I haven't tried but I'm hoping lol! read more

Cheap gas, nice facility, bad service. Prices are what brings the business here. That's about it. I tried to get a car wash. I gave up because it was a 30min wait and it was only 2 cars before me. What the hell is going on in that machine? Technical difficulties? Who knows. I drove off. Tried to buy gas today with cash. The cashier's have things ass backwards. Instead of spend the extra minute to put money on #11 she said, we need to do a change shift and system will be down for 5mins. Wtf?! Why don't you finish my transaction before you do all that. Screw it, going to pay with a card so I can avoid waiting for morons to run a cash register. There's always a line inside and it isn't because people are buying drinks, cus the cashiers are sloooooow. Get with it management! read more

This gas station is relatively new, so I like it because it is nice, clean and bright here. I feel relatively safe here, as I am apprehensive of going to other gas stations because there are a lot of random people hanging around. There are enough pumps so the lines aren't too bad and people come in and out fairly quickly. The customer service here isn't very friendly and welcoming, but they are prompt and do what they are supposed to. It is nice that they give you a discount on the car wash with your gas. I don't know what their minimum gallon is to grant you the $1 off but if you only get a few gallons the machine won't give you a discount. Another note, the car wash is relatively cheap, but may not be worth the hassle. Firstly, it takes a long time, about 5-7 minutes for each car to get through, depending on the level they choose. So, keep this in mind if you think the line is short. If you see 2 cars in line, there is probably one already in the wash, so by the time you are done, it would be 20-30 minutes later. This causes the line to be long, which in turn causes issues. The entrance of the line is close to the driveway to enter the gas station, so sometimes the car wash line blocks the driveway or people come in through the driveway and cut in line. Also, because the car wash wait is so long, I find that most of the customers become quite cranky and irritated. Once you've waited in line and decide you won't wait any longer, you actually cant exit the line without having everyone behind you back out. Of course, no one will let you out so you're stuck. Once they are in line, no one wants to move. Also, since it is automated, there are always technical glitches or people that can't figure out the machine which adds to the delays. Despite all that, if you just keep in mind that you have to wait if you want to get your car washed, you can make an informed decision. Also, the code that is printed on your receipt for the wash doesn't expire that day, so you can come back another time if the line is too long. This is a gas station, not a car wash so I understand. For the gas aspect of it, it is a pretty good place to go. read more

Yes, this United Oil gas station is brand spankin new. Prices are currently cheaper and I like the fact that it has a drive thru car wash. The only bad for me is that the pumps does not take AmEx. They accept Visa, MC and Discover credit cards only. read more

I love this United Oil gas station. It is everything you could ask for and a little more. The entire gas station from the bathrooms to the outdoor area is very clean. Not your usual gas station that's for sure. Visually this gas station is also very pretty and is updated every few years. The convenience store is fairly large and has a wide variety of snacks and drinks as well as some cold food items. They have a car wash that is available day and night and the staff here is always very helpful. The gas prices are also very fair! Love this location. read more

Not a friendly car wash station, it's says paystation but there's no option of method of payment..this sucks..I've waited in line for nothing, so I have to do it all over again..they need to change the system. read more

TERRIBLE!!! TERRIBLE!!! car wash experience. They watch you through the camera and never come out to help. Its nice on the outside, but the people who work there have poor customer service. read more

The service by the attendant Salvador was the worst. The bathrooms were disgusting and when I mentioned it to him, he was rude and complained about it. WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE Salvador. read more

This place is really nice, I like the convenience of stopping here fill my tank buy some snacks, get my coffe, wash my car, vacuum, in a really nice environment. Prices always lower than other gas stations, last time the pump was not accepting credit cards, not big deal for me because I GOT force to walk little bet so they ask me for my ID I liked that minds if my card is stoled no one can used. I HIGHLY recommend this place for gas. And more. read more

Good location, cheap gas, yummy coffee, SLOW SLOW car wash. Allow at least 10 minutes for each car ahead of you in line. Just took me 40 minutes to get my cheap car wash. read more

This gas station is located on 223rd and Figueroa, right across from Carnegie middle school. It is a pretty big gas station that also has a carwash. It can get crazy during rush hour, but the prices are always low. It's pretty new and it's location is convenient (near the 110 freeway). read more

Love this station. Modern and well kept. Attractive and good pump prices.

Gas prices are the best in the area and no difference in price if you pay by cash or credit card. Looks clean and nice and lots of Vegas style lights at night. Only negative is if there is more than 1 car waiting for the car wash, you will be waiting at least 15 to 20 minutes. Weekday mornings are best for a car wash. read more

Great location, close to freeway and my home (lol). The place is really clean, well-maintained and the gas price is unbeatable!

This is for the car wash...should've heeded the warning review...I'm in it now and it isn't working. 20 minutes and no movement. Never again. Could have made it to the cheaper one on Western/PCH and home in the meantime!!! read more

Its about time they opened this place up. At first it was great. Gas was cheap. But every day this past week that I drive by the price goes up. I guess good things aren't meant to last. read more

The car wash is a hot old mess. Today i spent an hour of my life waiting while it was being serviced, without being notified. The whole benefit of a drive through car wash is ease and convenience. I would never recommend that anyone I know frequent this gas station based on the blatant disregard for customer satisfaction and because my time was completely wasted. read more

The carwash is closed majority of the week and when it is open, it takes at least 30-45 minutes to get through the wash with the wait times! Plus, this car wash does not do the job well! read more

I like going here because the gas is cheap. And the gas station is brightly lit at night so it makes it less sketchy. It is also very spacious and there are a lot of gas pumps to chose from when it is full. As a gas station, it's a pretty good spot. The car wash on the other hand, it has it's good and bad days. Before it used to work perfectly, I would always get my car wash there. But now, it fuckin sucks! You would wait forever just to find out it doesn't work, often times you would get stuck there. And their assistance button doesn't work, so what's the point. They need to fix that ASAP. And also, they don't have a number to reach them when you're stuck in the car wash. Seriously a waste of time. They need to fix the car wash situation soon, or at least let people know when it's not working. It's not that hard to put up a sign. read more

Was Car Wash it took me over 45 min to get to the machine to input the Code no is out there to supervise the cars or help input the codes worst car wash I've ever, very slow moving and it didn't even clean that well I will not be stopping here again read more

My wife had a blow out on the freeway and they let her use the phone as hers was dead. Clean and nice

THE CAR WASH IS ALWAYS BREAKING DOWN.....i called, lady said they have a guy fixing it that will be done in 5-10min..all these cars were waiting for at least 30min. NO CUSTOMER SERVICE WHATSOEVER....and its soo hot out! Not only that, when i was trying to pump gas it was not going into my car and kept spilling out wth, ive been driving for over ten years and have never had this problem. Ugh, their car wash machine thing sucks too! They got cheap with that...i wish they had put more money into the friggin car wash instead of wasting it on the decorations outside with the warerfall and everthing sheeesh. read more

I recommend nobody go to this place even for cheap gas. The manager there was very rude instead of trying to solve ur problem. I was there today for a fill up plus deluxe car wash. After I paid for both at the pump, I took the receipt and went for my car wash. This is the first time I ever get a car wash at the gas station so I didn't realize the # I punched in was the invoice for my credit card. However the machine still let me into the carwash. The woman stopped me just before the machine started n asked me for the receipt. She asked me where my carwash receipt # n I pointed out to her. She then yelled at me that was the invoice # n where is my carwash #. By this time I was confused so I told her I paid for both the fill up n the carwash but the receipt got stuck n this is what I have left. Instead of explaining to me what mistake i made, and politely ask me to return to the cashier n ask for a duplicate, she kept yelling at me and be rude. For sure I wouldn't come back to this place again even for the cheap price. read more

I go to this gas station at least twice a month for gas, and drive a big truck.. so filling up my tank takes about $100 every time. I really liked the fact that I could get the truck washed at the same place I fill up, but after tonight I will NEVER return to this station. I filled up my tank and decided to wash the truck.. 3 cars in line no big deal.. finally it's my turn to go in.. now mind you I have done this at least 20 times at this car wash and really I do know how to do the darn thing. I pulled in and it tells me to back up.. so I did, ok maybe I pulled to far forward it was dark after all.. so I back up.. and pull in again.. it tells me to back up again.. and again... and again.. Finally frustrated, and my car did have soap on it considering that I did get "the works" I pull out and go inside. to let them know what had happened. The woman at the counter/behind the glass treated me as if I were some kind of idiot.. and was rude as she could be. I will never purchase anything from this place ever again. My advice would be to hire someone with at least an half notion of what customer service is!.. She informed me that the car wash is very easy, and I shouldn't use it if I don't know what I'm doing.. I will take her advice and take my business elsewhere!!! I will be calling the manager to test his/her customer service in the morning! And by the way, the woman working that night, I hope you pay her minimum wage, that's all she's worth if even that! read more

The employees are rude, the car wash doesn't wash your car, and I feel they put water in their gas pumps. Definitely avoid this place and stop by a different gas station. read more

This location needs better management and better training for their employees. I waited over 40 minutes for a car wash after purchasing a full tank of gas and my code was "invalid". I go inside and they take my original receipt to give me a new code. I go back and it says it's an unathorized code. As I try to talk to the employee, he shuts me up and talks over me without even listening to what happened. He even went as far to raise a finger to my face as another woman behind me laughed. I asked for a refund because I no longer want to deal with the situation anymore. The employee then goes to say they don't give put refunds but I can call the customer service number. I ask for it and he just hesitates and rolls his eyes. I say thank you and leave. I've attempted to call multiple times. However, every time I call I get no answer. I have left messages but still no response. I've never had such problems at any other United Oil locations. Management really needs to evaluate and audit their employees and teach them a thing or two about working in the customer service industry. read more

I wouldnt give this place any star if i could! I had bought and paid for a car wash when i had my gas tank fillled and didn't use it till it was time to get a wash and right before it expired. When i entered the code it said it was invalid! I went to the office to ask for another code and was rudely told the codes been used! When i told them that's impossible since I've been out of the state and couldn't have used it! I asked to speak to the manager and never got a call back. I tried calling and after a few attempts i got a hold of one of the managers. Again when i told them what happened they adamantly refused to give me a replacement code.i wasnt even asking for a refund but my right as a customer who paid for a service i never used. Is it my fault now that their system can be used by anyone just by entering random numbers? Their customer service SUCKS! i will never again give them a dime or penny of my hard earned money! Im very happy with Chevron. read more

Sometimes as cheap as uhhhem "that warehouse place", and it accepts visa, so getting cash back helps the price even more. This station has many pumps and I have never waited in line. Only down side is it is a pain to get into, going west to east you must pull a u-turn. Then coming out to get to the freeway you must cross to the far left lane and pull another immediate u-turn. read more
