I had a friend recommend B and J's automotive to me and I thought I would give them a chance-it's odd that my first real job was at B&J's burgers in San Dimas. First, I have to say that there was no pressure that you would normally find in small lots or even large dealerships. The cars are priced well; it appears that the B&J owners make sure that their employees are honest and care about the people coming through the doors. I worked in professional sales for 10 plus years before I became a professor. I can tell when people are genuine and when they're not, and these people are genuine. I was looking for a car to meet my son's needs, and I found a nice 2013 Toyota Corolla. It was in very good shape for being that old. Yes, you're going to find little scrapes here and there and possibly little minor defects but unless you go back in time and bring that car with you, you're not going to find something as clean as this one. This is an honest dealership. There are no hidden markups, no added tinted windows or security devices that you see in many other dealerships. Many dealerships will offer a price that seems enticing, however they have many add-ons like an upgraded stereo, upgraded wheels, upgraded tinted windows, upgraded sound system, upgraded security system and so on. NOT HERE. There is only one person that you need to ask for and that is Brian Ponce. He is the quintessential salesperson, and I'm 61 and I know salespeople that are good because he listens and he doesn't try to talk over you and tries to oversell. When you go there ask for him if you do not, you'll be doing yourself a disservice this is not to say that the other employees are poor workers, because I didn't meet them, but my experience with him was so intense that I can't imagine doing business with anybody else. It is a small dealership and usually I don't even go to these places. Again, because I was recommended by a friend, I did so. The car's outstanding I already had my mechanic check it out and of course there are a few minor things to do to it but nothing major the engine was great, the brakes are great the transmission's great the interior is great and again you can't expect everything to be perfect because it's thirteen years old. I am not a professional Yelper; I'm a normal person who tells it the way it is. Make an appointment with him and be on time and he respects that. I respect that someone values my time and is ready for me. I know there's a lot of unscrupulous people out there, but this place is not one of them. I'm going to send you a picture and you can see me in the picture. I'm a teacher, I don't have a lot of money to spend, and I believe in value and honesty, and this is where you'll find it. I hope you have an opportunity to speak with Brian and find a car that you like but to be honest I mean you have taxes and fees on top of everything you see and that's not the salesperson's fault, that's the state of California's fault. No matter where you go, you're still going to have to pay those same taxes so why not go to a place that will treat you justly, and with respect.

My experience at Auto Republic was very mixed. I ended up purchasing one of my dream cars (a Toyota…read moreSupra) and I have to give a huge thank you to Art. He was by far the best and most honest salesperson I've ever worked with. He gave me plenty of time to inspect the car on my own without hovering or pressuring me into making a decision. It was a refreshing experience compared to most dealerships. He understood that if someone truly wanted the car, they would buy it at the right price. Throughout the entire process, he was transparent, respectful, and professional with both me and my mother. Unfortunately, my experience with one of the managers, Alex, was the complete opposite. During the negotiation process, he was disrespectful toward my mother, which left a bad impression and took away from what should have been an exciting experience. It's disappointing because Art provided outstanding customer service, but our interaction with management made the overall experience very mixed. One thing I think future buyers should know is that this dealership installs LoJack on their vehicles and is very firm about keeping it. They would not remove it from my deal, so be prepared for an additional $1,000 add-on to the advertised vehicle price. Just make sure you factor that into your budget before visiting. If it weren't for Art, I honestly don't think I would have purchased the car from this dealership.

I've seen a lot of harsh reviews about Auto Republic here, but our experience with Art was great…read more He had the car ready for us to inspect and test drive when we arrived (an hour trip from Los Angeles, so we were grateful) and gave us as much time and space as we needed to make our decision. He didn't use any pressure sales tactics, which we really appreciated (and told him so). I would recommend bringing an OBD2 scanner to check if any codes show on whatever car you're looking at, though. We found a code for the passenger side airbag sensor that was part of a recall, so you have to do your own due diligence whenever buying a used car, wherever you buy it. Art was great about that issue (and the wonky alignment that he had his service department fix for us) and sent it to Honda to get it fixed for us before we picked it up. All in all, we got a good deal and I would definitely work with Art again.

Allison was so patient with me, and she really worked with me so I could leave with a car that I really wanted! She let me test drive pretty much any car I wanted, and let me drive it around for pretty much however long I needed too, and when it came time for me to find car insurance, she even took the time to look around and even got some quotes for me which was so cool of her to do! Another awesome thing she did, is when I didn't have the full amount for the down payment, she worked with me so I could pay it off before my first car payment, and still got to leave that day with the car! If you're looking for a new car I HIGHLY recommend this place, and if you do go, make sure to find or ask for Allison because she will do whatever she has to do to make sure that you have a good time, answer any questions you may have, and most importantly leave with a car that you love! Even after buying a car, Allison makes sure that you know she is only a phone call away! Im so grateful for all your help Allison, I don't think words could describe how thankful I am for all that you did for me!

I made the drive from home to here, which took about 45 minutes one weekday evening. Once here, I was able to test drive the car. Everything seemed fine, and I informed them that all I needed was a pre-purchase inspection, and that I would buy the car cash. I showed up the next day, and took the car to get inspected at a local mechanic shop. The inspection proved the car to be good for purchase, and I went to my bank to get a cashier's check. The staff here took care of all the paperwork, and got me going in my new car in a very short amount of time. Fast forward a few weeks, and I asked them to help me expedite the arrival of my permanent plates, as I had temp (paper) plates at the time.

I am submitting this complaint to document my experience regarding the purchase of a 2015 Hyundai…read moreGenesis on May 2, 2026 at California Motors Direct Santa Ana. Working with Juan Salgado and Benjamin Fernandez. The vehicle was advertised for $14,999, and I made a $10,000 down payment toward the purchase. One of the primary reasons I felt comfortable proceeding with the transaction was the dealership's representation that I would have a 48-hour period to review the transaction and return the vehicle if I disagreed with any aspect of the purchase or was dissatisfied for any reason. Relying upon those representations, I completed the purchase believing I would have a meaningful opportunity to review all transaction documents and associated charges. However, I was not provided copies of my paperwork until after the 48-hour period had expired. Upon finally receiving and reviewing the documents, I discovered that the total cost of the transaction had been significantly increased by additional products and charges, including $1,936 for a Tire and Wheel Protection Plan and $3,399 for a theft deterrent product (Starguard), which i was originally quoted $20 per day. These charges materially increased the overall cost of the vehicle and were not expressed to me at the time I entered into the transaction. My current balance on the car is $12.360.55, after putting $10,000 down on a 14,999 car. OC Motors is a total rip off! Had I been provided the complete paperwork immediately following the sale, I would have been able to review the documents during the promised review period and make an informed decision regarding the transactions. But apparently thats how this company operates. After discovering these charges, I made numerous attempts to contact the dealership to discuss my concerns and obtain clarification. Unfortunately, my efforts were unsuccessful. I was repeatedly transferred between offices, informed that I was contacting the wrong department, and, on multiple occasions, my calls were disconnected. I also sent emails seeking assistance and clarification but did not receive any response. I further learned that the vehicle had a prior damage history reflected in the vehicle history report. While vehicle history information may have been available, consumers should be provided with complete transparency regarding both the condition of the vehicle and all financial terms associated with the purchase. I'm documenting this to caution other consumers to exercise diligence when purchasing a vehicle. Prospective buyers should carefully review every document, verify every charge, ask questions regarding all add-on products, and ensure they receive copies of all signed paperwork BEFORE leaving the dealership. I wouldn't recommend them at all but if you do purchase a car from this dealership, read everything, even the small print, they are very crafty- they try to "legally" scam people. In my opinion, the manner in which this transaction was handled lacked the transparency and customer service that consumers should reasonably expect when making a significant financial purchase. No matter how good these cars look or the prices, do not trust this company I hope that by sharing my experience, other consumers will be better informed and able to avoid similar frustrations. *They will reap what they sow* Blessings to all
