The worst gas station in the whole world/ highest gas prices around/ had my car towed in for no start( fuse) they told me that rodents ate my wires to the computer/ he charged me $800 for a $2.00 fuse. The station is being remodel as of 12/31/21 we should write to 76 gas corp. And complain about the owner and his employees/ i could go on and on about that station/ i use to work there #25 years ago/ 5 star station it was a great station/ when Ed owned it? It was the best..

I took my car into MK union 76 for a smog test. It did not fill the smog test, but it did not complete it either. It came back with a report that my computer had not reset so I couldn't take a read. So he never did a smog test. Then he charged me $42, claiming that my car was an SUV, which it is not! And he said he will not re-test it, even though he didn't complete a test! I am reporting him to the Better Business Bureau and to the department that governs auto shops. He was not vaccinated, refused to put on a mask and told me if I didn't like it I could leave. Do not go there! He

DONT COME HERE. They are rude, liars and very overpriced. Last time we came here to change tires, we asked for a specific brand but they gave us the WRONG BRAND. They also said our NEW tires are leaking airs and is asking for 500 dollars to fix it. But in fact, they just didn't put it on correctly (We went to Audi Dealer...that's what the dealer said). They are full of horseshit liars

Having read the reviews, I was wary as to what to expect. But I needed a smog inspection, so I took a chance. There was one car before me, and I was told that it would be $50, and to come back in 25 minutes. My car was ready on time and passed the inspection. However, when I went to pay at the gas station, the cashier confidently said to me, "$100". I paused. Inform him that I was told $50. "Okay, $50, says the cashier, without one ounce of remorse or shame in spite of the fact that he had just blatantly attempted to swindle me.

What a complete joke this gas station is. Their equipment is in disrepair charging some of the highest prices around.
Not to mention they make you go inside to use your credit card and then charge you a surcharge without getting tour approval. And they don't have it listed anywhere before they do so.
JOKE

My tire light is on. The shops says $140 for a diagnostic test. The technician plugged in his computer and said light was on for electrical board reason, not because of any broken material parts. He cleared the code then tire light is off. Then he wants to charge me $280 because he says there is two computer systems in the car and he reprogrammed two systems. He seems generously to give me a discount and charges only $200. But why $200 instead of $140 as we promised at the beginning? Then he started to get very mad, yell at me then leave me there alone! So unprofessional.

This could have been a simple mistake, posting here to see if anyone else had this experience.
The pumps don't allow you to swipe a card, sign says you have to pay inside.
Paid inside for $25, went to pump gas and it didn't work and cut off immediately.
Went inside to tell them it's not working, he then got it working and it only pumped $20.30.
Asked why I didn't get $25, he said I pumped 4.74 first then I took it out.
However that's not possible because it cut out immediately and there's no way that was possible.
I explained to him, but he refused.
A mistake? Or

Took my car there for some engine problems, they told me they would call me with anything costs. They called that it would be $200 for a diagnostic which they already performed. And the cost of repairs would be $1000 for engine mount replacement.
I took it to another mechanic , who found the issue (not the one these guys said it was), and repaired the spark plugs and coil for $250.
Dishonest, rip off, ....DO NOT GO THERE !!!

I stopped here for some gas on my way back up North. I was visiting Tanaka farms down here. I went into the tiny little building to pay for my gas, and grab something to drink (otherwise I would have paid at the pump). The guy working...was disgusting. Firstly, he had his mask pulled down below his mouth. Right before he began to help me he sneezed. Into his right hand. While his mask was down. After he sneezed he pulled his mask up. Then I went to pay and realized he needed to take my card! Luckily he was using his left hand. Then he put my card into his right hand. I couldn't believe it

We went down for a smog and mechanic visually saw a cracked hose and manually wrote on the smog certificate that it did not pass. They charged me $51.00 for a smog check even though it did not pass. Owner stated the car can get resmogged since I already paid. When I returned I was charged an additional $10.00 or they would not provide me the smog certificate. Called several smog facilities and was told I should not have been charged an additional $10.00 and mechanic should not have visually written smog did not pass. Dissatisfied with customer service, felt belittled and taken advantage of due

Here's the story... my Dad (late 70's) asks me to drop him off to MK's Union station to pick up his SUV for a smog check. My first thoughts were why would you need your SUV there for the entire day?
But anyways... When we arrive there I just thought it would be a $40 Smog check but instead it turned out to be ~$200+/- in repairs. The guy also pointed out an additional $100 alignment fee? For a small sensor the size of a key fob? On top of that my father has to come back to MK's Union staying after completing 200 miles of driving to finalize the smog check. Here's the

My wife took her 2013 Audi Q7 TDI to these crooks for a Smog Test to renew her registration. They told her she needed a new fuel hose in order to pass. Cost is $700..... on inclination, she took it to another shop on Jamboree for a 2nd opinion. $700 is a lot. No problems and she passed the smog test.
Seems like based on other reviews and our experience, these crooks try to take advantage of people who may not know better.... this station is also the site of the most expensive gas in OC. I don't understand how this place stays in business.

My mom took her car here for a simple smog check, and somehow a big dent in the bumper appeared on the back after. The employee there claimed another car backed into it and that they will have the bumper fixed in an hour. This was around 4 in the afternoon.
Taking their word, my mom waited at a tea shop nearby for them to fix it. A little more then an hour passed and there was no calls, so she went back to check and realize the manager and mechanics have all gone home! Without even contacting her about the job done. What's more disrespectful was they've done a mediocre job at best fixing
