The full story
Why Pacific Auto Center Fontana earned this grade
Pacific Auto Center Fontana has two verified quotes from February 2026. This is a small sample. The review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices and whether charges were clearly shown.
What they do well
These quotes do not establish a specific pricing strength; that is not, by itself, evidence of a problem.
Where to push back
Required extras averaged $4,985 across both quotes, and each included a required-extra charge. Ask which extras are required, whether any can be removed, and for their prices to be shown separately in a written offer.
Average confirmed dealer fees were $172. The Median state fee in California was $117—the middle fee amount in the eligible quote sample—so the reviewed fees averaged $55 more. Ask the dealer to explain the fees and confirm the total in writing. One quote also had unclear taxes; ask for taxes and government charges to be listed separately before agreeing.

How we know this
Every number on this page came from a real deal.

Each one is a PDF, an email, or a screenshot showing the actual dealer fees, the actual add-ons, and the final price against the advertised price — not a salesperson's promise.
Only quotes from the past year count. We split them into four groups, newest first: the newest counts 50%, then 30%, 15% and 5%.
