I came in just expecting to look at a few cars, but Josh helped me to find my dream car with an amazing rate and a high quality car. I have had my new car that he sold to me for a few days now and I could not be happier. Josh made sure that I was taken care of and got my needs met right away. If you go here, as for Josh! You won’t regret it!

Adan Rodriguez provided us with an excellent customer service, before every time I bought a car I would leave the place I bought it in a suspicious way, but for the first time I am leaving the place where I bought the car happily with peace of mind. Adan Rodriguez definitely deserves a promotion. Thanks to him, I am leaving here happily with my new car. Thank you so much for your interest and great customer service Adan. You are the man!!

Steven really helped us get the car we wanted, especially since we have challenged credit. We tried everywhere and kept getting turned away. We even went to the Montclair location and they didn’t even try to show us options. Steven made sure we were getting a car we wanted, he showed us multiple cars that we could choose from . This is the 3 vehicle we have purchased at Fontana and they have helped everytime. I really recommend this dealership they are really helpful, they go over and beyond to get you approved and get you something you want.
