I came later in the day to look at a Toyota Camry. Kevin greeted us and was very friendly. He did not put too much pressure and had a pleasant attitude the whole time. I never felt pressured to hurry up. He was willing to work with me on the price to meet me where I wanted to be. Overall the experience was great and I really appreciated the help Kevin was able to give me.

Bought a car from Zach, and the entire experience was incredible. His transparency, integrity and willingness to work out a deal that works for his customers is unlike anything I’ve experienced at a dealership ever. Without question I would whole heartedly recommend this dealer, but specifically Zach made the whole deal a breeze.

I came over to see a vehicle that was on there website. The appointment was at 8:30am. We were meet by Zac ( He has a big beaming smile & is very sincere) We inspected the vehicle, took it for a test drive & made our decision. No pressure, no stress, they are easy to work with & are a pleasure to do business with. I throughly recommend buying a used motor vehicle from them. 5 star service all round 🙂

Overall my experience at Fontana Motors Direct was a pleasant. I arrived at the Fontana location with an interest in a specific car which was at another lot down the road in Montclair. Michael was my salesman and kindly offered to take us to the Montclair location to see the car. He met us there, had the car ready, and was patient, friendly, and professional from start to finish. I highly recommend both the business and Michael if you are in the market for a used car.
