Loved my time here. Ryan really helped us figure out the car we wanted. Went over there for a 2019 RAV4 that we were looking at but the 2023 was a much better offer. Matched more if what I was looking for, thanks for all the help (and patience) Ryan.

Hello and good afternoon to everyone. My name is jacob and I am now a customer, correction, a loyal customer of fontana motors direct in the city of fontana, california. This was the last dealership.I gave a chance to get into a car app or rather, an suv or a truck in a certain price range. Given the fact that have been screwed around and given all the b s stories in the world regarding credit and how it doesn't matter, your job is your credit, payden cash we can help you, every kind of story that every kind of place can put out.We fell for except here. We explain our credit situation and they listened diligently and heartfelly and got us into a vehicle that we not only love, and got to pick, but was also in our budget. We've been victimized by a fraudulent dealership that sold us a lemon apps.The car boutique at Colton, lied to by the owner and ultimately financial lemon. I'm not gonna go overboard on what was done here. However, I will say that gerardo listen to everything that we had to say, and when we sat down was incredibly open to hear everything that has been going on with us regarding car shopping, which we've been doing for the last 6 months. I'll give a quick synopsis and overview, we got into a jeep grand cherokee overland with the legendary 5.7 Hemi V8. Ultimately, we got screwed because it was a lemon and overheated.Mix multiple times until the engine seized. Yes, the d*** thing locked up on us. We had just barely made the first payment, and so we're in negotiations with our finance here and the warranty provider, and the owner of a dealership to come to a positive resolution and did not. We brought that situation to Fontana. Motors, direct and sat down and spoke about it and are now leaving with our vehicle. I am proud to say that I am now the new owner of a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8, a vehicle that i've dreamed of like young people dream of ferraris, and had one day hoped to acquire. Do yourselves and your wallets your time? Enter credit a favor and come and check out Fontana. Motors direct first. The gentleman that helped me, there names were Gerardo and Jiovani. All managers will help you. They won't waste.your time and will listen. Trust me, your worth it!! Again, my name is jacob riojas and I am not being paid for this review, every word here I meant wholeheartedly and can back it up to anybody who has something stupid to say about it!!!! Jacob Riojas

Jonny went above and beyond my expectations. I was in a rut about getting a car with not so good credit and this process was seamless. Jonny took the time and patience to break down every part of the process and also for future refinancing options. He was so patient with me & my husband because we were very indecisive being that we were looking for a vehicle that made sense for our growing family. I appreciate you Jonny for making things happen. You are truly a GEM!

I had an amazing experience at California motors direct! Andrew was incredibly helpful and made the entire car-buying process smooth and stress-free. He worked with me to find the perfect car and went above and beyond to get me a great deal. I was able to trade in my old vehicle for a very fair price, and he made sure I drove off the lot the same day with a low monthly payment that fit my budget. Andrew’s professionalism, knowledge, and friendly attitude made all the difference. I highly recommend asking for him if you’re looking for a new ride—you won’t be disappointed! Thank you, Andrew and the California motors direct! team, for making this such a positive experience. I’ll definitely be back in the future!

I highly recommend anyone who is looking for a car to come here. From the moment my partner and I came here to the moment I walked out with a car we were taken care of. Johnny helped me get a car despite having bad credit and a voluntary repo on my credit score record. He went above and beyond. Thank you Johnny for helping us we really appreciate you. We will be back soon.🙂😊
