Joshua Villalobos step up and helped me out after my original guy I was speaking to was busy with another guest.
extremely helpful, got right to business made sure we got the car we wanted with payments that were affordable and meet our needs.
There’s some issues / delays happening when it comes to releasing the vehicle. But all well is done and everything is taking care of. Thats how “Jonny Alcantar” Sales representatives he is. He make sure that his customers have 100% very satisfied and very happy. He’s very understanding, patience, and he’s absolutely gave his time to reply all the calls and text messages too. Of all the dealerships i visited he’s very different and treated you as family member. Thumbs-up for him. Highly Recommended the California Motor Trade Norco.

Jhonatan was super patient and helpful in helping us get a car. Chill guy and made the paperwork very smooth. Thanks!
Thomas and Caleb were great. They were honest, up front, and helped me get into a car that worked for me. After being told no at other dealerships, I was pretty discouraged and gave up. Do yourself a favor and come check California Motors Direct out. I wish I had sooner.

I had such a great experience with salesperson Hussein when buying my 2023 Tesla Model 3. I had so many questions about it prior to even meeting and hussein was happy to answer everything. When i arrived, the car i came to look at originally was sold but I noticed a car that fit my expectations better just came in. Hussein did his best to communicate with management and service that THIS vehicle needed to go to me. So happy he went above and beyond. He even helped me take sticker glue off the windshield and cut his hand :( Communication after purchase was amazing and shoutout to managers Kifah and Benjamin! Nobody loves sitting at a dealership tbh but they made me feel comfortable and valued.
Jonathan looked out for me and got me out the door at the price I wanted. I appreciate his time and effort in making my need less stressful. I recommend him to you all.
Great place to come and shop for a car Zach helped me out so much with my not so good credit. He reassured me that he’s worked with all type of credits and made a deal happen I’m so grateful for him and his coworkers going above and beyond for me when everyone said NO I highly recommend this dealership 5stars!!!!!
Marilyn was the best!

Honestly, Michael was a great Salesperson!. Once my spouse and I arrived, we began inspecting the car. Then out of nowhere Michael turning the vehicle on, catching our attention to the Honda accord 2.0T sound. They definitely helped a lot and Michael showed a lot of great interested in giving us the best deal possible to get in our new car. I would recommend this Dealer. I will come back for another in a near future.
