Such a seemless process, Cj had fantastic ideas, we came
Such a seemless process, Cj had fantastic ideas, we came down to one. He had all of the paperwork ready, he?s very knowledgeable and made sure that I was comfortable.
2023 Ford Explorer XLT
Have only had vehicle for 3 weeks but really like it. I’ve had F150’s for the past 12 years and thought I’d miss my truck, but I’m really enjoying this explorer. It’s more comfortable and fun to drive and the gas mileage is better.

This is the best dealership and they have fabulous
This is the best dealership and they have fabulous customer service! Morrie’s will always have my business in the future!
Nice vehicle
Quiet, comfortable and powerful car. I have the twin turbo that puts out 400 hp. General gas mileage is 19-20 city and 24-25 highway. The only thing that I would change on this vehicle is that I would like to be able to turn off some of the automatic operations on a semi-permanent basis.

Serra Mazda in Brighton was the best shopping experience
Serra Mazda in Brighton was the best shopping experience I have had with a dealership. Justice was a great salesperson. Having been in and around the retail automotive industry for over 30 years it was refreshing to see a young energetic honest salesperson do what he said he was going to do. The management was very friendly and efficient. Great place to buy a Mazda.

Thank you Jeff Johnston of Brighton Ford.
My experience with Brighton Ford has been more than wonderful. Response to the phone call was fast. The phone conversation was friendly and courteous. And my appointment was quickly fixed. I received a text message to confirm the appointment and to provide me with the dealer address. Jeff Johnson met me with a warm welcome. He answered all of my questions. Even the other staff were nice. Despite the commitment to masks and social distancing, I felt a smile and kindness surrounding me when I dealt with Jeff Johnston and all Brighton Ford employees. I will definitely recommend all my friends and relatives to deal with Brighton Ford. Thank you, Brighton Ford. You deserve more than five stars.

Great experience!!
I bought a 2021 Chevy Spark last Friday from La Fontaine and was equally impressed by the handling of the application for a loan and the outstanding knowledge of my salesman, Allen! I will most definitely reccomend both the dealership and my salesman to everyone I know! I received a call back tg e following day from Allan, he wanted to make sure learnt having any issues with the car! Now, that's going above and beyond to me!!
