Bill we What a great experience I had working with Bill Earnest. He is a true professional who has 15 years experience with BMW. He KNOWS the product. Bill went to great measures to find a BMW that would fit for me. In the end, I did not buy a BMW only because I was looking for a vehicle with a soft ride while the BMW is more of a sporty ride. To make matters even more difficult I stuck to my budget plans. Nevertheless, if you are shopping for a BMW or plan on buying one, your best bet is to seek out Bill Earnest at BMW of Orland Park. He will make your shopping or buying experience an enjoyable one. More

Horrible First visit was fine. Based on that I went there for a second service. What a horrible experience! Car was there two days, when I called once just to First visit was fine. Based on that I went there for a second service. What a horrible experience! Car was there two days, when I called once just to check if it was done (based on what I had been told)..the 'service advisor' ( yeah right) told me that he would call me when it was...curtly. I let that one go. Next day got a call that it had been done. I drove for 45 minutes to get there and guess what, it was not. The work was very minor. ....people working there could not find the parts in their parts department even though they had been sitting there for 2 days. When I got there, they said they had misplaced the parts and told me " this is going to take some time," I waited for 1.5 hours more for them to install simple parts (Plastic mud shield). But it was the demeanor I encountered, absolutely no apology or empathetic statement or gesture whatsoever!! From the management or the workers. Am I going to take my 120 grand car there again??? I am livid. More

Bill Earnest: BMW Salesman Extraordinaire Before buying my new BMW, I had heard about the experience of buying from Bill Earnest. He used to work at Jacobs BMW in Naperville, but recently mov Before buying my new BMW, I had heard about the experience of buying from Bill Earnest. He used to work at Jacobs BMW in Naperville, but recently moved to BMW of Orland Park. Even though it was out of my way, I went to Orland Park so that I could have Bill as my salesman. Given the pre-purchase build-up, I thought it would be hard for Bill to meet my expectations. He not only met them, he exceeded them. Bill spent as much time as I needed explaining every detail of my new BMW. With all of the technology included in the car, this was no small feat. In fact, other customers in the showroom stopped and listened for a while. When Bill left me for a few minutes, other customers came up to me and commented about the service I was receiving. They had never experienced anything like it, and neither had I. In a completely different context, Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart said: "One knows it when one sees it." Bill Earnest has it. I will be recommending him to a number of my friends who are considering a BMW as their next car. More

A new kind of automobile buying experience This dealer knows how to convert a typically stressful car buying experience into a fun transaction. Simply put, it was actually fun to deal with Mike This dealer knows how to convert a typically stressful car buying experience into a fun transaction. Simply put, it was actually fun to deal with Mike Messer (used car manager) and Bill Earnest (our sales consultant) during the purchasing phase. Both went out of their way to fully understand our needs rather than just try to push a car out the door. How refreshing is that ?? It's almost as if these guys didn't know the word "no". Will (a true car guy), their finance/business manager was equally as accommodating. I think we extended the closing process by at least a half hour just because we we're seriously having a good time signing documents and just chatting about car stuff. A few days after purchasing the car, I had a confrontation with a pot hole. It required that the vehicle be moved via a flat bed to the dealership at 245 am. Fortunately the damage was confined to an shredded tire. Craig Lantz (service writer) took it upon himself to call me shortly after 8am the next morning. He said that he had seen the car parked in front of the dealership. I mentioned the the tire was damaged. His response "I know, I checked our inventory we have a tire in stock and i put your name on it." By 10 am I was back on the street no problemo. By the way, Bill, our sales consultant guy from paragraph one, is like a mother hen watching over his clients to a fault. WOW I'm really getting to dislike this guy since he's making it very difficult to purchase vehicles elsewhere. Get a life Bill :-) You might be getting the idea that my first buying experience through Ziegler BMW is a good one. Let me go on record........., THAT'S AN UNDERSTATEMENT. Oh, last but not least, before leaving the dealership. Bill O'Hara the dealerships GM, took time to introduce himself. Just wanted to make sure I felt good as a new member of the Ziegler family I guess. Nice touch Bill your graciousness is permeating throughout your entire staff. Phil Mirenda CGI Motorsports More

2 hour plus Oil change Zeigler BMW of Orland Park, IL I brought in my car for a routine oil change $79.00 for cars 2006 and older, what a great deal I thought! I was wrong! I should have known when I aske I brought in my car for a routine oil change $79.00 for cars 2006 and older, what a great deal I thought! I was wrong! I should have known when I asked for shuttle service and that person did not to come back from lunch when is was already 1:30pm(they only have one shuttle person on Friday) that should have been a warning sign, but no I really wanted that $79.00 oil change. The second problem was it took 2 hours and 15 minutes longer than the one hour and fifteen minutes they promised(double the time). WIFI and free coffee were great, but I had to walk to the service desk of my service advisor two hours later only when I noticed people who came in after me were getting their cars back already. I finally asked her where my car was? She just had a blank face and said she didn't know, but she'll check? After about five minutes she told me that the car washing service was having problems and she will try to track down my car. I went back about 10 minutes later and she said the washing guys are vacuuming the car and should be done soon. I got my car back and they only vacuumed the driver seat and did not vacuum the passenger side. I asked my advisor and she said that's right, they only take care of the driver's side (why would you even offer this service?). At this point I just wanted my car so I could go to work I arrived at the dealership at 1:15pm, I paid my bill at 3:10pm and got in my car at 3:30pm. Still not not over, the next day I check under the car and it had a leak(about 1/4 quart), then I checked the hood, then I saw the guys at BMW opened with my cabin air filter, because it wasn't properly secured and the screws were all up. I called my service BMW Advisor and left a voicemail, she called back 15 minutes later and said my car was leaking due to the oil pan gasket. I have had numerous oil changes from multiple quick lube places from here to California and have never had an oil leak until now, she said it was probably excess oil after the service technician checked the oil pan gasket. I know the cold weather has affected car sales and Zeigler BMW has a high operating cost, but to have your guys sabotage cars getting their oil changed is pretty low. I called to complain, about the cabin air filter but the service advisor said it was my word against theirs and was quick to pass the buck to the service managers voicemail. Seeing that my cabin air filter was opened during a routine oil change really makes me not trust Zeigler BMW. I hope this helps out anyone who is reading this. This really happened to me on March 29, 2014. If you have an E46 BMW and you need service there is a place called Four Seasons Automotive at 11601 s. Ridgeland ave in Alsip, IL The managers name is Mike Feltman(708.361-2280) and he is an honest guy. He has replaced my thermostat, expansion tank and fixed hoses that came off and everything works great, you don't need to go to the dealership if you have an E46 BMW. Thanks for reading my review.
