I will never step foot on this lot ever... and here is why. My fiancée was shopping online for a used car as well as financing options. One of the financers who approved her was roadloans. They emaile why. My fiancée was shopping online for a used car as well as financing options. One of the financers who approved her was roadloans. They emailed her an approval code and packet. Her approval was for a monthly payment of $200. with $1000. down. One of the cars she was approved for was a 2006 chevy cobalt that was located at this dealership. So off to the dealer we go. Arriving at the dealership we were turned over to sales person Dave Sonnenberg by the receptionist. My fiancée explained to him that we were there to look at the 2006 chevy cobalt because she was already approved through roadloans at $200. per month with $1000. down on this car. Dave S gives her some papers to fill out while he gets the keys. He takes her filled out papers, hands us the keys and says the car is out this way somewhere... and points out the door. We go out and look the car over. It runs great but blocked in so we can't move it. In checking the trunk area i see the previous owners Oregon plates inside... so i start looking it over very well for rust damage repairs. I see the hood repair, front bumper repair, LF fender and headlight repair. The LF headlight lense had been replaced and a piece was loose inside. The rest of the body was very nice. We also noted that the oil filter gasket was seeping oil... a dollar to fix. Dave said the car had been on the lot 11 days and was waiting for service inspection and detailing... probably next week. We went back inside. Dave sits down with his numbers worksheet. Sales manager instantly cut the price a thousand dollars... good deal. He makes the sheet look like we negotiated to 200. a month to take to the sales manager. We explained again that there was no need to negotiate as she was already approved for 200. a month through roadloans. Dave S said... we are not going through roadloans because they charge the dealer a fee... and off he goes. He comes back and states that she is approved.. at $227. a month for 48 months with another finance company. My fiancée spends an hour in the financ office signing papers and placing the deposit. We leave because it will be a few days to go through service and detail. 3 days later Dave S leaves my fiancee a voicemail that the car needs rocker panels and her payment is now going to be $267. per month. So when i get home i call Dave S to get info. He states the car needs rocker panels and her payment is now $267. per month. I stated that she signed papers saturday for $227. a month. He said it doesn't matter her payment is now $267. So i told him i think i need to speak to an attorney since she spent an hour filling out all those financial documents. Dave S said " do what you have to do " AND HUNG UP THE PHONE ON ME. When we went back to get our deposit back we were told by Eddie that we have to come back tomorrow. My fiancée asked for her roadloans packet back but he said it was already shredded. Do the math. A scam is in action. $267. a month plus $1000. down on a 2006 cobalt with 92,000 miles. As a consumer who has been around dealerships for 30 years i will state on the record that this was the worst experience ever.... and will never shop there again . We are members of a couple of gold prospecting clubs where jeeps and four wheel drives are the norm. All club members will be told of our experiences so that they can choose elsewhere to buy. We are also going to monitor carfax to make sure the rocker panel work makes the carfax report or fraud will be indicated. More

My wife was ready to buy herself a new Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, so we went into Luke Chrysler Jeep Dodge on November 11th, to check their selection and see how their customer service was. We were greete Unlimited, so we went into Luke Chrysler Jeep Dodge on November 11th, to check their selection and see how their customer service was. We were greeted by Chris Delara who said he would be happy to show us what he had on the lot. He showed us two Wranglers and we test drove a Gecko green model. He seemed helpful and we told him we would think about it and get back to him. On November 24th, we went back in after calling the day before to see if Chris would be there to help us again. When we came in on Saturday, we saw the same Gecko green Wrangler on the lot that we test drove two weeks earlier. This color is a very slow seller from what I've read, but we like it. When we found Chris, he said "I think that Jeep might still be here" (trying to instill panic in us so as to get us thinking we missed out). We pointed to the Jeep and told him it was right there, so he took us over to inspect it, since we had told him that we WOULD be buying a Jeep today and it could be this one if the money was right. While looking at the Jeep, Chris commented to my wife "You REALLY like this one don't you?" with the look of Golum seeing the ring, because he thought since we came back that this was a slam dunk deal and he could pull whatever he wanted to over on us and we would pay anything, because we could not live without that model. So, I could tell things were starting to go sideways, when we sat down at the sales desk, Chris then starts to run numbers by us, that weren't what we were led to expect, and was insisting we sign paperwork that had large blank spaces on it, BEFORE we even started to work on a sales price. When my wife called him on this he started to get very defensive, and then when we reminded him of the special black friday offers, he tried telling us those were not being offered until we showed him Bill Luke's ad as proof. My wife had to insist to get what was already advertised and each time she insisted, Chris's tone became more condescending. We tried to keep him on track to the fact we wanted the "out the door" price, but by this time, he was becoming MORE offended by the fact that we we NOT the "pushover easy deal" he dreamed of and was becoming more abrasive. When my wife asked if we could speak to the sales manager, to see if he could work the numbers with us, Chris said angrily "He won't come over here, He has ME!" (Really)? The truly sad thing here is that, if we had a GOOD customer-centric sales person that would have wanted to work the Gecko Jeep, he would have had a sure sale. OR if he couldn't make the numbers work on the Gecko, what a GOOD sales associate would have done, would have said "I can't get the numbers where you need them to be on this Jeep, but lets see if there is another on the lot that I CAN work a deal with you on, OR ask us if we would like to special order a new Jeep so it would be JUST what we wanted. He made no attempt to do anything to save the sale, but instead he let us walk out without ANY attempt to work with us. It seems these basic rules of customer centricity have eluded Chris and as a result, so has our business, since we WILL be buying our Jeep this weekend. The fact that Bill Luke seems to condone this sort of thing is VERY disappointing and I have the unpleasent task to warn as MANY people as possible AWAY from this dealership (facebook is next. We had such high hopes for a pleasant transaction, but if this is how they treat strong sales leads BEFORE the sale, I shudder to think of what their customer service is like AFTER they have your money. Bill Luke should be ashamed and all potential buyers out there have been WARNED! More
I walked into this dealership because I was in the area, not intending to buy that day, as soon as I walked in I was greeted by David who then helped me from there. David M is by far the nicest car sales ma not intending to buy that day, as soon as I walked in I was greeted by David who then helped me from there. David M is by far the nicest car sales man I have ever come across! He helped me from start to finish and made sure I was comfortable and getting what I wanted. I was loving a jeep commander that they had and when we took it for a test drive I noticed the third row seat would not fold down. I ended up buying the jeep that day and worked with an excellent man in finance, I paid cash for my jeep, got a fantastic deal, and the service department fixed my latch (at my earliest convience) for free, and now I have a perfect used jeep for me and my baby. David did everything he could to get me a great deal since I had limited funds and did not want any financing, I really appreciate all the help I recieved here and will be reccomending this dealership to any and all friends who are looking for a new car! There will always be bad reviews, but just do wht I did and go in and give them a shot, they definately proved all the negitive reviews wrong, and buying my first car was a much easier and stress free experiance than I had imagined!

I want people to know that because of these three salesmen i will always come back to Bill Luke for all of my purchases and tell my family and friends. More
I found a truck I wanted online and emailed to verify that it was still there the night before we drove down from Payson. Of course, when we got there, it was conveniently sold the night before, but no that it was still there the night before we drove down from Payson. Of course, when we got there, it was conveniently sold the night before, but no one bothered to tell us. The sales rep tried to sell us a Chevy Equinox, which was nice, with low miles, but the payment was going to be well over $400. No thanks! They only offered $1500 for our trade, which was worth way more. We walked away from the deal, ended up going to Sands Chevrolet in Surprise two weeks later, bought the truck we saw online from them and they gave us $600 more for our trade! Don't bother with Bill Luke, bait and switch!!! More
My wife and I went in on Sunday July 10 to possibly purchase a new vehicle and trade in our old one. We got the trade in price we wanted but we were still discussing the purchase price of the new vehic purchase a new vehicle and trade in our old one. We got the trade in price we wanted but we were still discussing the purchase price of the new vehicle. The discussion became about the monthly payments, which were more then we wanted. I mentioned how more money for our trade in and possibly less money for the new vehicle might ease the payments down. The salesman said those factors didn't matter. Then he went away and came back with the same purchase price and same trade in price but monthly payments down about 20-40 dollars. I asked how he did this, he mentioned that it wasn't important, he didn’t know and it was just something they (finance) did with the numbers. So after talking, he said "if we get these monthly payments somewhere around your wants, are you willing to buy the vehicle today." I said yes, and he asked me to sign on this line, I asked him what the signature was for, he said it was just a formality and that they (finance) wants to make sure you are serious about buying a vehicle. So after back and forth for about an hour my wife and I decide they aren’t giving us the prices we want. So we decided to leave. We have to ask for our keys which they had when they appraised our vehicle on hour ago. We proceed to leave, and then the finance guy comes over and wants to discuss why we won’t be purchasing a vehicle. I politely explain that we have seen their best offer and want to go to other dealerships and see if they can possibly beat it. In which the finance guy gets upset and says "do you really want to be dragging your wife around town?" I calmly avoided getting upset with this gentleman for questioning my actions as a husband. I simply restated that another dealership might offer a better deal, and I want to make sure I am getting the best possible price. I told him that if he could guarantee that I would be getting the lowest price, I would buy the vehicle, in which he could not. He again insulted me by mentioning that a trip to another dealership might just being saving me a few hundred bucks. He said "is your life really that hard", implying that I was some how poor. Again, controlling my anger, I mentioned that it’s my right as a consumer to shop around. I got up and he said "you signed right here saying you will buy this vehicle, what kind of man signs his name...” I cut him off from talking and mentioned that his salesman, who was sitting with him, told me that the signature was not important and it was just a formality. He looked at his salesman in anger and the salesman said nothing but put his head down. Then I walked out and left. More
I purchased a 2010 Dodge Caliber new through the internet service and had a very pleasant experience. The sales team was great but it was the new car welcome meeting and the ongoing service which keeps me a service and had a very pleasant experience. The sales team was great but it was the new car welcome meeting and the ongoing service which keeps me a loyal customer. They are all very friendly and I have never had any surprises in my service work. I also receive discounts and deals on my service which helps keep my overall costs low. I recommend them and will be continuing with them for sales and service. More
Very unprofessional salesmen. Went there to get a new work truck. The salesman had no knowledge of what he was selling. Long story short, over promised and under delivered. If want a good deal or grea work truck. The salesman had no knowledge of what he was selling. Long story short, over promised and under delivered. If want a good deal or great customer service, don't go to Bill Luke. More
The buying experience was far less stressful than any other car purchase I have ever made. ( I've made lots!) So pleasant I went back two weeks later and purchased another for the wife. We bought Jeep other car purchase I have ever made. ( I've made lots!) So pleasant I went back two weeks later and purchased another for the wife. We bought Jeep Patriots. The dealership is very organized, and the service area is so clean you can eat off of the floor. I had brought a car there for bodywork after an accident 3 years ago, and recalled being impressed!
