DONOT BUY GAS AT THIS STATION! There snatch and grab robberies and the management has a speaker saying don’t leave things visible. The management is saying they are not responsible for thefts. The rental car return people told us that they recommend Costco or Safeway because the thieves always hit this station. The representative at the airline stated that it is common knowledge that snatch and grab thieves hit this place regularly. The personnel at the station did not say a thing about robberies. We had a mini van and the windows were tinted.as soon as I opened the drivers door the thieves opened the hatch and grabbed several bags out of the van and took off. Save yourself and your possessions and look for another source for gas. This station is close to airport but provides no protection to customers.

Unfortunately, I have to pass through this corridor daily on commute to/from work, and have passed right by this station for the past 6 years. I'm fully aware of the crime problems, but for some reason, I had never seen a robbery in person. Only on the news. It's gotten so bad that recently Chevron even installed loudspeakers that have a warning message blaring on loop to "not leave belongings in plain sight" and that "management will not be responsible for damage to vehicles" (likely since they were probably sued).Coming back late from work yesterday, I witnessed my first robbery in person passing by. Was sitting at a red light right in front of the station when I saw a black car pull up next to a person pumping, two men jump out and start breaking windows. Warning message was blaring in the background while this was all unfolding. Literally felt like something out of a movie. Light then turned green and I sped off as quickly as I could, knowing that the criminals were likely headed on my tail to the freeway. Got me extremely paranoid and I was hyper vigilant until I got home safely.Experiencing today's incident first-hand really put on full display how much Oakland has become a lawless city. I'm still a bit shaken up. Felt like I was in a third world country. The entire Oakland city council (especially their utterly useless "revolving door on crime" DA) should be ashamed of themselves for letting society degrade to this level.

Don't stop here if you can avoid it. My mother stopped here and her purse got taken while she was in the car. We work in transportation and this is a daily occurrence in this region. Avoid stopping in any of these gas stations by the airport they are all the same. Car theft, theft, etc. Something needs to be done about this. It is only getting worse by the day.

You will get robbed here and the attendants and security guard are in on it. Oakland PD is incompetent and the politicians deserve to be brought before a firing squad. I would say don't go to this gas station, but you just shouldn't go to the Bay Area at all. I hope a meteors wipes the whole place off the face of the earth.

DO NOT go here. You will be a victim of theft or worse in broad daylight and it’ll happen in less than 5 seconds. You might be thinking “oh I’ll be quick and it won’t happen to me”, but please truly fill gas somewhere far far away from here.Got my backpack stolen here and police said they couldn’t do anything because of the high number of crimes in the area. Someone who appeared to work there was going around telling everyone not to leave valuables inside because they were getting stolen. I have a feeling he was in on it and was actually taking a peek in everyone’s car. He didn’t seem to care or help after my stuff was stolen.

Don't go there. Thieves got into my car and another while I was getting gas, middle of the afternoon, all pumps occupied. Don't ever go there! The thieves got into gridlock trying to leave then came back and robbed another car - I watched the whole thing go down. DON'T GO THERE!!

Best gas station in the area. It is perfectly safe to leave your purse, handbag, laptop and jewelry on the passenger seat. Yours sincerely, R. Obbers

Stopped here for gas around noon yesterday. Watched a woman get robbed and a Lexus drive off with her stuff. Chevron employee warned people waiting in line in the store of a Lexus casing the area. There's some nefarious inside-job going on here based on the reviews, and nothing being done about it. No wonder we took your baseball team.Signed, Las Vegas resident.

Too many crimes are occurring they need security is ridiculous. I just got my car broken into why I’m getting a cup of coffee. Just a quick stole. My purse is ridiculous.

DO NOT GO HERE! I was another victim of theft while pumping gas. My purse and laptop bag were taken right in front of me from the passenger seat. The employees were not shocked and seemed actually amused. I stopped here to fill up before returning my rental car. It was middle of the day and full of people. It is not safe. DO NOT GO HERE! Like another reviewer states, who read reviews on gas stations? I hope someone here does and will avoid this happening to them. Every person at the airport knew exactly which gas station this happened at.

DON'T COME HERE! While the driver pumped gas, someone jumped out of a waiting car, stole a backpack from the trunk, jumped in the car and sped off. Very easy theft opportunity at this station!

Does not even deserve one star. Went for a quick stop for the restroom and WHILE getting gas, someone crept behind and opened the trunk and stole our backpacks, luggages and my sanity (WE WERE PRESENT). They target rental cars because they know you have luggages. These people need to find a way to live that doesnt involve stealing other ppl's valuables. We work endless hours too to buy everything we have today. NEVER COME HERE if u dont want ur things STOLEN in the blink of an eye.
