Advantage Chevrolet of Hodgkins

Late January 2012: I was looking to trade in my 2011 Ford Fusion to get a Chevy Traverse. I went into the dealership and worked with Steve. I asked him about the internet price of the Traverse and he didnt s Fusion to get a Chevy Traverse. I went into the dealership and worked with Steve. I asked him about the internet price of the Traverse and he didnt seem to want to discuss price. Anyways my wife and I test drove the Traverse. Nice drive...Meanwhile my car was getting appraise. My wife and i Sat for an hour and half waiting for them to appraise car. It was not busy so how long does it take. After a while Steve came back and told me they are offering 13k for my car. Now my car had 12k miles on it, 2011 SE in great condition. No biggie only 13k. I want 17k or 18k. I told Steve thanks I will go to another dealer. The next morning i get a call from a salesman. He tells me to come in. The guy who appraised cars was not there yesterday so my car was appraised wrong. I tell him im at a Dodge dealer and they are offering me 17k for it. He says get it in writing and we will match. So....I get the details in writing from Dodge and travel to Advantage. While im en route to Advantage i get a call from Steve and some lady asking me to come back to get more money on my trade. The car appraisal guy was there. So i get there with this appraisal in writing and no one knows what I am talking about. I tell them I talked with a gentleman who wanting me to bring this appraisal in writing and he said Advantage will match. They appraised my car again. Some guy approached me while i was sitting and waiting forever and told me we will give you 14k. He said the guy who appraised car is not here today. I responded: "you guys not going to match the appraisal from Dodge." Again no one knows what I am talking about. And I was told that this invisible guy who appraise cars was here today, but he really wasnt...or does he exist? I left the dealership pissed....Oh...they were only concerned about running your credit before you test drive or do anything. I went home and called the dealer to speak to a manager. I explained to him the situation and he responded: "We ain't giving you 17k for your trade! We not giving you more money!" He was very rude. I was almost taking this personal and was fuming. The guy was so ignorant over the phone. The very worst experience at a dealer. I dealt with liars and rude so call business people. More

Since my first visit to Advantage Chevrolet, I felt very welcomed. The Salesman Chris Krajniak was the nicest and friendliest salesman I ever worked with to get a car. Every dealer I went to before, I had welcomed. The Salesman Chris Krajniak was the nicest and friendliest salesman I ever worked with to get a car. Every dealer I went to before, I had a bad experience with. I knew since I met Chris that I would want to buy my first car from him, and I did. He was VERY patient with me (since I had went to the dealer about 3 times before I eventually bought my car). Even after I bought my car he has still called me to follow up with me on how the car is running and just to make sure everything is going good. I would definitely recommend Chris to anyone that wants to purchase a car. Even his desk buddy (sorry forgot his name) was extremely nice and made us feel very welcomed. Chris even came in on his day off for me. I appreciate great customer service like the one I received from Chris and his co-worker at Advantage Chevrolet. More

I just bought my first car here a few months ago and I couldn't be happier. Since the moment I walked in the door I had great service. My salesman was very knowledgable and straight forward during my purc couldn't be happier. Since the moment I walked in the door I had great service. My salesman was very knowledgable and straight forward during my purchase. He has even followed up with me multiple times to make sure everything is fine with the car. When it came down to money, the entire staff worked their hardest to get me the best deal for my car. I knew when I drove off the lot I had the best car for the best price. All I can say is, they have a customer for life now after the way they treated me. Thank you Advantage Cherolet. More

I would never consider doing business at this dealership. I saw two different ads for the same malibu online. I chatted with one of their salesman online and asked about the price difference. I w dealership. I saw two different ads for the same malibu online. I chatted with one of their salesman online and asked about the price difference. I was told to bring in the lower priced ad and I would recieve that price. I followed up three more times with emails and calls to verify this. I live over an hour away and called one last time. I told the salesperson that I had the financing and the down payment but I didnt want to show up and be told that I didn't qualify for a certain rebate or that the car had already been sold. I then asked If i show up will you sell me this car for this price and was told "YES SIR." I showed up about two hours later and got the runaround. I didnt qualify for $2800 in rebates, the hubcaps had been removed from the vehicle, and never did meet the salesperson I had talked to on the phone. I got two different stories on why I could not see her. These salesmpeople are out to get you for every dollar they can squeeze out of you and they have no problem telling you bold facede lies. I have filed a complaint with the Better Business Beareau. Spoke to Chevrolet Corp. Marketing, and even called the Hodgkins PD to see if this qualified as outright fraud. Don't do business here. Run, run as fast as you can to another dealership that might possibly have some small smattering of integrity! More

I went to this dealership on a recommendation of a friend and the lack of interest of other dealerships. Now I have a bankruptcy and really was fine with the vehicle I already had but needed to get my credit and the lack of interest of other dealerships.
