Thank you CCCPAA! Easy purchase from start to finish. The staff were very friendly and professional! Brady was AWESOME!

I talked with Alex the day before I went there for my purchase. He was kind, polite & patient. Then at the shop, I was so graciously helped by Tyler, and the owners (Marty & Debbie). I am old & have purchased way more vehicles in my lifetime than I care to admit & NEVER have I had such an enjoyable, swift, & easy process as I did with these two. I will be recommending them to everyone & if I'm not done purchasing vehicles just yet, they would be my go-to again. God bless you all for your genuine kindness. read more

My wife and I just bought 2 cars from Alex. Alex is very professional and knowledgeable, very detail-oriented, well understanding with no pressure at all. He full of energy and have sense of humor. I am going back again; this time I am taking my families and friends along. Thank you, Alex, for the job done. read more

they told me the kbb offer for my car in fair condition was 1-2k however i was looking at the same time on my phone and jt was 5k. went to a different dealership and they did offer me 5k for my trade in. the car i was looking at had squeaky brakes and when i asked about it i was told they just had the brakes looked at and the tint on the back windows was peeling as well read more

Got a good deal on a Toyota RAV4 (did my research) and it was truly a low pressure sales experience. Alex was great - answered all my questions over the phone, held the car when I gave him a heads up I was heading over (2 hr drive for me), and helped me get started with loan approval online so didn't have to worry about that when I got there. Literally the least stressful car buying experience I've ever had. read more

I had a wonderful experience buying a used car at Contra Costa County Public Auto Auction! The whole staff was helpful and didn't pressure me into any decisions. I came knowing what car I was interested in, and the first person I met (I believe she was an office manager or receptionist) gave me the keys and allowed me to look over the car alone, which was a much better experience than other dealerships that hover over you and pressure you to make a choice. When it came to financing, Brady was really helpful in getting me the best rate, ensuring me that my preapproval with Capital One could be beat (and it was!). The process was smooth, and I think I was only there for about 2.5-3 hours (fairly short, for the car buying process). Highly recommend this dealership! read more

Contra Costa County Public Auto Auction - My new (to me) car! - Car Auctions Near Me - Pittsburg, California

I bought a BMW from this auto auction in late December 2025 as a reward to myself after years of hard work. At first, I truly believed I had found the right car and something reliable that I could finally enjoy. Unfortunately, that excitement quickly turned into frustration, stress, and financial strain. After the purchase, I took the car to get inspected for serious issues; not only just bad news but it began to surface the things that were never clearly disclosed. I've now been left paying out of pocket for problems that should have been addressed before the vehicle was ever sold. To make matters worse, I also purchased the warranty they promote and partner with only believing it would protect me. In the end of fighting the auto auction and warranty agency, my claim was denied for a major timing chain issue that I put more into fixing than I expected. Not just that but with electrical issue, tires, outdated engine parts and after seeing all these recalls car fax's I strongly urge potential buyers to do extensive research on this place, get independent inspections, and think carefully before trusting vehicles sold through this lot. What looked like a reward for my hard work has turned into an ongoing financial burden and people deserve to know the risks before making the same mistake. read more

my recent experience at your dealership while attempting to purchase a 2024 Dodge Durango. When I first spoke with Brady, he refused to discuss the deal because the credit check was under my husband's name. After getting permission from my husband, we were able to move forward. However, during the financing process, I chose to decline GAP coverage, LoJack, and the extended warranty because I already have excellent insurance. At that point, Brady told me he would not finalize the deal unless I added one of these accessories, explaining that otherwise "he wasn't going to make any money." The lo jack coverage was 899.00 he claimed it was for "the bank giving us the loan." I even offered to pay $200 directly to cover the bank fee, but he refused, insisting on rolling the additional charges into my loan would increase my loan. This is an unfair and misleading sales practice. At no other dealership have I ever been told that I am required to purchase unnecessary add-ons in order to complete a vehicle purchase. Your dealership is already making money from the sale of the vehicle itself, and I should not be obligated to buy accessories I do not want or need just so the salesperson can increase their commission. I wasted half a day of my time only to be pressured and misled. I am extremely disappointed with this experience and will be sharing my concerns with the Better Business Bureau and other consumer protection agencies if this matter is not addressed. I respectfully request that management review these practices and take corrective action. Customers deserve transparency, fairness, and respect when making such a significant purchase. read more

Great Customer service. Answered all my questions and helped me with my car purchase.

If you hate the car buying process, come here!!! Because Jessica has made this entire thing a breeze! We were out the door with our vehicle after a test drive in less than an hour! No haggling , great atmosphere and Jessica is stellar at what she does!!!! I never make reviews but this place is definitely some where that shouldn't be gatekept and should be even more busy than what it is ! read more

Purchased a car for my daughter this past weekend. Jessica was very nice and accommodating. Made the experience easy and very pleasant. My first time buying from auction center. It was a good experience and Jessica played a big part. Even supplying a red bow for the car for her to take pics with after purchase. read more

Amazing overall experience. Very nice employees who clearly care about the overall customer interests. I like how they don't have sales people on the lot trying to persuade me into other cars. The car buying process was quick and easy and I actually purchased my car in less than an hour. Good selection of cars for a good price. Happy to buy from them again! read more

Broke Legal Binding Contract NEVER provided my financed car. In fact they'll call you and lie it was "already sold" if you find issues so be aware. Aware of all negative reports reviews. Rats will steal and run your credit as exposed by a credit bureau. Vehicle engine was visibly poor condition (hence auction price) but falsely mislead you on CARFAX APP with false "runs great." Business is nothing fair, passing you over to him," talk to her," them , do NOT count on "administration." read more

I would not recommend this lot, first off they have not had an auction for over 5 years lol ! even the worker told me that! While I came to originally look at a Cadillac ATS a 428i caught my eye decided to give it a look had MAJOR TRANSMISSION ISSUES , not to mention i drove HOURS to buy a car and when it came time to purchase it i asked for a test drive first before i finished signing the paper work and they said i needed to buy the car first in order to since i wasn't "25 years old" every major car dealership i went to allowed me to with a sale-rep, valid CA driver's license, and my proof of insurance all which i provided and reassured i was paying full cash and would also be willing to put a UNNECESSARY DEPOSIT they told me no. I'd say I dodge a bullet given the other reviews and the condition of the cars we seen their ! read more

Was texting with Jessica back and forth for almost 2 hours... she was having a extremely hard time understanding I wanted to get the out the door price to just purchase the vehicle in writing before I went there as I needed to know the exact dollar amount and didn't want any add ons or extra fees once at dealership. She then apologized for the misunderstanding asked me for my info for tax purposes then just disappeared left went home for the day idk. Since I didn't want any add-ons or pay any extra fees she refused to give me pricing on the vehicle... this is Shady business stay away!!! read more

Alex and everyone in the team was an absolute joy to work with. I got an amazing vehicle. I have owned several used vehicles in the past and have dealt with shady dealings and misrepresented vehicles. This was the exact opposite experience. I know who to go to in the future and who to recommend. I drove a long way to make sure I was working with a trustworthy, reputable, and competent dealership. They won't let you down. read more

I had a great experience working with Alex. My daughter bought her first car. The service was excellent from Daniel getting the car ready and Alex for doing all the paperwork. read more

On November 1, 2024, I purchased a 2016 Audi Q5 and paid in full. The buying process was easy and quick, and the staff was nice during the sale. However, that's where the positive experience ends. On November 9, I noticed that the fuel gauge stopped working. I contacted CCCAA to explain the issue, and the young lady I spoke with informed me that the car was sold "as is." She offered to refer me to a mechanic for repairs, but there was no compassion or empathy, especially considering I had just spent $15,000 on the vehicle. Unfortunately, the situation worsened. I began to smell fuel inside the car, followed by a significant oil leak and a burning smell from the engine. Within less than a month of having the car, it is already in the shop. I did purchase a warranty, so I hope that whatever is wrong with the vehicle will be covered. Guess you can say I won't be a repeat customer. read more

Daniel & Jessica was amazing! They answered every question and made sure I was happy with my purchase. Thanks again you guys are great!

I landed on the auction site after a lengthy research process to find an affordable and reliable car. The staff at the physical store were so helpful, explaining the purchase process, what to look out for when purchasing a pre owned car, typical new car purchases and warranties...They even helped me find a warranty plan for the car I bought (with a discount!) and helped me figure out the navigation system and the alert lights in the car before I drove it off the lot. I strongly recommend this place for anyone who wants to buy a car without feeling like they are getting ripped off. read more

Just bought our new family van over here. The only place I had the van I want it in the color and low mileage. Super smooth and easy transaction. Isn't that what we all want when we buy a car? Jess in the office was very easy to work with and made things move very fast and seamlessly. Daniel in the lot showed us the car explain all the features and was quick to answer any questions we had. The kids love the new car and we got it for a great price. read more

Contra Costa County Public Auto Auction - Our new dodge grand caravan gt family mobile - Car Auctions Near Me - Pittsburg, California

I didn't know this place existed until a found a car I wanted to check out on Carfax. I was there when it opened at exactly 11:00 AM and drove away my new (used) car away at 1:00 PM. The car I went there specifically for had a few cosmetic issues I couldn't overlook (others might not have cared), but I found something else that I was completely satisfied with. Very easy process, no salesmen and fair prices. Special thanks to Jessica and Daniel for their assistance! I've read some negative reviews about people not happy with this place. Cars that are being sold "AS IS" means buyer beware...you assume all risk if the car ends up having issues. Buy the extended warranty if you have concerns. We were also told that we could take our car to a local mechanic within 48 hours (for a small fee) for a more thorough inspection if desired. I'm also thinking cars are sold as first come, first served. They're in the business of selling cars. If you delay or procrastinate, you might find yourself out of luck. read more

My mom and I had a great experience here at CCCPAA, both Jessica and Daniel provided great customer service. They walked us through every step of the way and answered all of our questions, and helped prepare the car for us. Definitely would recommend this place to friends and family. read more

One of the best and easiest buying experiences I've had. I purchased 3 cars from here and all great cars and service. Most recently Brady and Daniel assisted my son and I. Both were attentive, knowledgeable and provided excellent service. I worked with Alex the last time and he was just as wonderful. There was a young lady who helped out as well but I didn't get her name. I like the ability to shop the cars online before I go out. Test driving is easy and best of all there is no hassle to buy! Financing is easy and they always make sure I am getting the best deal! Cars are reasonable priced and always seem to be in great condition. read more

Daniel and Jessica were very nice and considerate during our purchase of a used vehicle. They Rock!!!

I was really disappointed with my experience here. This "auction" isn't actually an auction at all, and it feels misleading. From what I've noticed, they seem to be selling cars with mechanical issues. I often see flatbeds unloading vehicles, which raises concerns about the condition of the cars they're selling. Definitely not what I expected. read more

I would rate this business 10/10 Jessica B was so eager to help and she was patient with us and kind, I left the first day without the car but I came back two days later and was ready to get the car and she was still very much so helpful. I absolutely love our new car. The service guy Daniel he was awesome as well, we test drove about 4 cars in one day, when we first arrived he gave us an umbrella to block the sun it was about 102 degrees. He brung out fresh cold water bottle, he was just a joy. The days we purchased the car he had the same attitude, and rather personality to help. He made so the transition to our new car was great. I highly recommend CCC public Auction. QuaTasia W read more

Contra Costa County Public Auto Auction - Car Auctions Near Me - Pittsburg, California

Jessica was the best. Very helpful and great personality. My son was a first time buyer and she made everything very easy.

My first experience with this company. Review looked mixed like many car dealers. Found my vehicle after searching everywhere. Was even willing to drive a long way to get what I wanted, and this was only 11 miles from home. They don't negotiate even though I was cash paying. Do you due diligence as you don't know what the history of every vehicle is despite having CarFax which doesn't report everything on the vehicle. I brought my code reader to check the engine and did a detailed test drive. Vehicle seems to be fine so far and pretty happy with the purchase. read more

The employees are awesome! Patient and helpful. No pressure or sales tactics. We got a great deal on a great car. I highly recommend this agency read more

Daniel, Alex, and Chris were so helpful. We drove 3 1/2 hours to go get the car I wanted we arrived a little after 4:30 when the closed at 5:30 we test drove the car and didn't want to go home empty handed. We told them how far we drove to purchase this vehicle and they all stayed late to help me get the car! So helpful and would purchase from again! read more

This is a new and updated review based on my experience from November 5, 2023. I did end up going to the dealership due to the fact that they had already run my credit. When I got there I spoke to a woman (didn't catch her name) and then walked around the lot. I ended up test driving two cars, a 2011 Mazda and a 2019 Jetta. When I came back in to discuss purchasing the Jetta, the associate brought up my last review and said, "well we can't hold cars without a deposit or if you're not doing business in person because it's discriminatory." Which tells me she did not actually read my review. I said that I understand business is first come first serve, but that it was the lack of decency to call me and tell me that the car I had been approved for was sold less than fifteen minutes after I had spoken to someone. Whatever the case, because it was Sunday, she said she didn't know if she would get an approval before the end of the day. We walked around the lot for a little while before deciding it was better to go home and just come back, but when I went in the office to tell her that I wanted to put a deposit on the car (so they couldn't sell it in my absence) before I could get a word out she said, "I don't have any news for you." Put a bad taste in my mouth, but I put down the $500 deposit and we went home. Few hours later we get the call that I wasn't approved, whatever it happens, but it wasn't the woman who called me, it was Alex. The person who couldn't be bothered to tell me that the car I was approved for sold fifteen minutes after we got off the phone. He asked me if I was really interested in a car with "that many miles anyway" and asked if I saw anything else I liked because "they were just trying to help." I asked if he could see if I qualify for a 09 Honda Fit that was at least $3000 less than the Jetta and he said okay. This man calls me back a few hours later to offer me a car I didn't even SEE on their lot, that was pretty much the same price as the Jetta (minus a few hundred dollars) and told me he needed an answer right then and there on the phone since he won't be in tomorrow. I almost caved because I was quite literally sick of this BS but the final nail in the coffin was when I said I had to work all week (you know, because I switched my shifts around to see the car he told me I was approved for) and I asked if he could use the deposit I put on the Jetta for the Mazda and he said no. That I would have to make a separate $500 deposit. And that even with that deposit, they couldn't hold the car for more than 24 hours, which meant unless I could somehow rearrange my work schedule AGAIN there was a high chance that they'd sell the car again. I declined and that concludes any business I might have had with the Contra Costa County Public Auto Auction. I stand on my original review. This place is terrible. My second experience was much worse and I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. read more

Very professional and helpful with all questions we had. Wonderful staff!!! Found what we needed in less than an hour. They make the process very easy!!! Bought 3 cars already from here!! read more

I was loooking for a car and I kept coming back since I didn't have a large down payment. One of the salesman Alex noticed my efforts and worked with a down payment that I had to work with. He took the extra mile to look for a car that would be approved for me! I got a 2018 Chevy Cruz and I couldn't be happier with the service and the car. read more

Bought an 2008 Audi and found out it had a slow gas leak. It drove perfectly fine otherwise. Never would have known. After two or three weeks, the light kept coming on every so many miles, about every two weeks. Before buying the car, the light was on. When I inquired, the CCCPAA salesman said it had been through all checks and everything was fine and that all I had to do is just take it to the dealer and they would turn off the dashboard notification. I did. Then after that, a few weeks later we had to keep bringing the car back, so the dealer put on diagnostic to see why oil kept leaking and saw that it had a hole, causing a slow leak. At this point I wanted my money back but the contract said "as is". Well, I don't think this was fair. Isn't there a lemon law? I took CCPAAA's word that it was fine. I wasted $8,000. $10,000 after tax. read more

Not bad looking cars but they don't maintain them before selling, nice people but would not go back!
