The full story
Why Sunrise Ford Fontana earned this grade
Between April 2026 and April 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 12 verified deals with this dealership. We pulled the doc fee, the add-ons, and the gap between advertised and out-the-door price from each one. Then we graded them the way a friend in the business would: on the things that actually cost you money.
✓ What they do well
2 thingsDoc fee is genuinely reasonable
$0 is $101 below the CA average of $101. That's money you keep — most dealers in their market charge more.
Add-ons are the exception, not the rule
Only 8% of quotes include dealer-installed add-ons, averaging $12,715 when present. Most shoppers here never see them.
! Where to push back
1 thingListing price and real price disagree
Quoted prices run 12.2% above the advertised listing — roughly $4,270 extra on a $35k vehicle. That's a pattern, not a rounding error.
TipThis dealer's listing price is a marketing number, not a real one. Don't anchor to it — anchor to an out-the-door target.
