by cynthia on 03/08/2025updated 03/17/2025my experience was very welcoming. As soon as I expressed how much I could spend the dealer was able to meet my budget with a Chevy. I was not pressured into purchasing anything extra,even though I did purchase the extended warranty. The… office was warm and cozy. Everyone was working and I was satisfied with the choice I made.Hello, we are very happy to have provided you with such a positive experience! We are always more than happy to assist you if anything else comes up. Take care!

GREAT SALES TEAM
by HAPPYCAMPER on 07/18/2023Our experience with Porterville Ford had a 5 star rating as soon as we step foot onto the property. Kenny was very Accommodating to our needs. He was very knowledgeable with all trucks. He explained the differences to us and helped us… understand. We're very happy with our choice. Thank you very muchStress free experience
by Afarfan on 04/03/2023This purchase was by far the easiest, fastest, stress free experience I’ve ever had buying a vehicle. They listened to my preferences, respected my choices, and were never pushy. The price point was more than reasonable. I very happy with… the terms of my purchase. Between the finance manager and the sales associate Christian, it was a pleasure doing business with Porterville Ford.Helpful
by BNSDF150 on 02/08/2023We were almost completely satisfied with this experience. We have a low opinion of car dealerships in general (and wish more of them would work to dispell that stereotype), but this one was not too bad. We felt that the salesperson we… worked with was very professional, helpful, and accommodating to us, as we were traveling a long distace to purchase a specific truck that had proven hard to find. We were happy with all aspects of the transactoin until we were signing documents, and discovered that we were expected to pay an additonal amount above the agreed upon sticker price, for a lowjack device, because it was "already installed," as well as etching which had been done to the vehicle. To add this on top of the sticker price without pointing it out to the buyer is dishonest. It's also not very smart business, as we likely would not have pushed back had the lowjack been rolled into the sticker price. We probably wouldn't have noticed. But to add it on at the end and then expect us to sign a document agreeing to the extra charge just seems dishonest, and we did refuse to pay it. Thankfully the manager was very nice about it and removed the charge when we told them we had not been informed about it ahead of time. What was ironic about this was, we had literally had this exact experience at a different dealership, with a completely different car purchase, just recently. So, buyer beware, this lowjack bait-and-switch seems to be an industry-wide scheme that dealerships are trying to pull. Don't pay the extra charge.Jared Reaves

by RubenBL on 06/26/2018By far the best car buying experience I've ever had. I live in Fresno, about an hour away, and it was well worth the drive. I worked with Kenny who was awesome. He was able to get me and my family into the vehicle we wanted for the price we… wanted. They were straight forward and open about everything from the vehicle to the financing. Great people and definitely recommend.!!!Awesome!!!

by erose1980 on 07/04/2017updated 07/17/2017Since I've had my my Ford Fiesta I have had great service. But when I took my car in for a recall part I was told it would take one full day for them to have my car and they had it for 3 full days. That's a long time not to have a car. I do… understand that they get busy but I would like to be told up front how long service will take so I can plan better for it. But over all I'm still happy with Porterville Ford. And I love my car. Note, because it was a recall I did not have to pay for its replacement.excellent service
by snmnstar on 05/18/2017I could not have been more pleased with how my husband and I were treated, I would recommend Porterville Ford to any and everyone I talk to. Jim, Ian and Oscar were more than helpful, more than kind, more than friendly. I thank them all… for all their hard work and appreciation for how we were treated!!Excellent
by rxys9611 on 10/29/2016updated 11/08/2016Excellent service, friendly staff, i liked not feeling presured into getting our car. Our sales guy, took the time to ensure it was within our budget and everything with the car was taken care of! 😊False promises and teased
by mistyanniez on 08/20/2016updated 08/31/2016Just left the Porterville Ford dealership from returning a vehicle back to them! My parents were there on Monday trading in a vehicle to purchase a new one. They found a vehicle they loved, a 2015 Toyota Sienna van. After working with the… dealership after a while they came to an agreement of taking and paying off my parent's trade and settling on an APR and term that met the monthly payment my parents could afford. Of course after going to finance department they always tack on extras here and there ultimately making the payment a little more than what they were wanting, but that goes along with any dealership. However, my parents were told that the dealership was too busy that night to get the final approval from the bank but that it shouldn't be a problem to get it finalized at what they all agreed upon. They took my parents trade, my parents signed a contract and was given the van to take home. My father is Filipino and came here as a teenager and still has trouble understanding things. However, anyone, regardless of how well they understand things or not would assume that after signing a binding contract and being told there shouldn't be any problems, this is what we can get you, so go ahead and take the vehicle, would assume that everything is going to work out right?! WRONG!!! 4 days later they get a call that they got the financing finalized and it's at even better. Guess what that even better was?! A higher APR, a lesser term, and a HIGHER MONTHLY PAYMENT!!! Yea yea, I understand in the long run they might be paying lesser because it's a shorter term but for those of us that live paycheck to paycheck, a higher monthly payment then what was promised doesn't seem like it's a better deal to me! I also understand that by law this whole method of giving customers the vehicle and seller can possibly take vehicle back and cancel sale is not against the law to some dealerships, and for sure this specific dealership, it's A-OKAY! In most cases, these things work out they told me. Well yea but not in all cases right? So it's ok for you to tell customers this is what we can promise you, this should work out no problem, and now all you have to do is pay $75 more or you can give us car back after you've had it for a few days, after you've fallen in love with it, after you've shown all your friends and family your new vehicle, it's ok because it's not against the law. I think that's complete bull! It's not against law but it does leave a bad taste in my mouth! It makes the people who have to return the vehicle feel [non-permissible content removed]! It's such a tease and should not be practiced! A vehicle shouldn't be given to them until everything is finalized, set in stone! This is the second time something like this has happened to my parents but luckily enough the first time, that dealership was willing to work with my parents and lower the vehicle price enough to accommodate the payment they all agreed upon. Porterville Ford said they couldn't do anything more and literally left us sitting for over an hour to have my mom sign papers to return the vehicle. All in all, I think the whole situation was handled poorly. If you make a promise as a business, you should keep it, and not get your customers hopes up on a maybe. And if what you promise falls through, you should do everything in your power to fix it or maneuver it to work out for the customer. Stay far away from this dealership if you don't want to deal with shady false promises!!Awesome service!
