I was buying a new car for the first time in a decade, literally. The whole process was more stressful than I had anticipated and the going back and forth between several dealerships was an experience in literally. The whole process was more stressful than I had anticipated and the going back and forth between several dealerships was an experience in itself. I am not someone who buys a new car every two years and I am not someone who buys the most expensive car on the lot or has to have every bell and whistle on a car. I wanted a reliable car, within my budget at a fair price. I feel like I received that with Grossinger’s and I would do business with them again. I was going back and forth between an Altima and the Malibu. I went into Grossinger’s because my parents had purchased from them more than once in the past and had good things to say. I was fortunate enough to work with Darrick. He was not high pressure, he treated me with respect and I felt like he wanted to make sure I ended up with a car that I was truly happy with. As a side note, I had stopped in to drop off some paperwork a few days after the sale and in the ten minutes I was inside, without my asking, Darrick had already had my car taken through the car wash. I just think that was another example of why he is such a great person to do business with. He had completed the sale days ago, but he still cared about the little things. Through my wavering back and forth, second thoughts about the color and a myriad of other concerns, I had the opportunity to talk with Faraon several times as well. They answered all my questions and made the final decision one I was completely comfortable with; their patience with me was very impressive. In the end, after having gone through the financing process with another dealer a few days earlier, dealing with Fred was the better experience by far. Fred was extremely thorough and made sure that I ended up with a payment I was comfortable with and answered all of my questions completely. He is the consummate “sales guy” and he does try to make the “sale” but he was respectful and I did not feel like he ever lost patience or wouldn’t take “no” for an answer. Are they looking to make a sale and make a profit? Of course. Did I feel like I received a fair deal when I finished signing the papers? Absolutely. Would I recommend Grossinger’s to someone looking to buy a car? Yes, and I would tell them to ask for Darrick. More
Top notch professionalism and a smoking deal is what we received on a recent visit to purchase a first car for our daughter. Darrrick efficiently connected all the dots and took the time to introduce us t received on a recent visit to purchase a first car for our daughter. Darrrick efficiently connected all the dots and took the time to introduce us to Brian in service even though we were buying a used VW. I was so impressed with Brian’s concern and professionalism that I came back with my ’05 Escalade and had some well neglected service work done. Fred in finance was a pleasure to deal with. He’s a straight shooter and didn’t play any games. I highly recommend these folks and will continue to business with them even though they’re a little out of the way for me. More

My experience was a very clean straight forward transaction involving a trade-in and a new car purchase. Mike has a energetic spirit in his work with good product knowledge. Cesar is no doubt the " transaction involving a trade-in and a new car purchase. Mike has a energetic spirit in his work with good product knowledge. Cesar is no doubt the "fastest" finance person I've ever worked with. My stress was kept to a minimum and I appreciated them for it. Grossinger's website got me in the door and John gave me immediate attention when I arrived. More

Cesar worked to secure us a very good rate that we are very happy with,every thing went very smooth and my wife and I feel that we bought a great car at a great price,I will recomend Grossinger Chevrolet and Darrick to anyone.

Yes I would recommend this dealership to someone else, recommend them to stay the xxxx of way from it. Unlike everyone else though they all most trick me I called about a Cadillac Deville and scheduled a recommend them to stay the xxxx of way from it. Unlike everyone else though they all most trick me I called about a Cadillac Deville and scheduled an appointment to come see it I was going to be driving 4 hrs and Gary gave me a steady price and I was like cool ok, but after reading their ratings and reviews on how they lied to past customers, I then called back and told them what is my acutal price before I came, These people raised my price up 2,000 dollars more and talking about taxes. Anybody in their right mind know taxes is not that High. Please stay away from these ungodly, lying, non-trustworthy, dirrespectful, cheating people. It's Car lots like these people who give car lots a bad name and make people weary about buying cars. This is not the way to get people out of their hard earned money, by lying, but if you go here it will work and I'm warning you know. Don't just take my advice look at their reviews and most of the good ones that recommend them are one's they wrote, be careful, be very careful and afraid when dealing with people like this!!!!!!

This is the worst, most dishonest dealer ever!! They This is the worst, most dishonest dealer ever!! They will "spot deliver" a car, change terms and price MONTHS after Purchase. Go to the Better Busin This is the worst, most dishonest dealer ever!! They will "spot deliver" a car, change terms and price MONTHS after Purchase. Go to the Better Business website-They have an F rating. 70 serious complaints this year. Check Attorney Generals site before you go. No one should go here without the pamphlet from the Illinois Attorney Generals office on "Buying a New or Used Car". If only I had read it before they conned me. When you have a problem, and you will, they will not take a phone call from you because they know your unhappy. They will never NEVER give you a salesmens last name, they give you incorrect names, titles and when you ask to speak with a manager they say "we don't have one." REPAIRS - READ THIS, THEN LOOK UP THE LAW ON ILLINOISATTORNEYGENERAL.GOV It is illegal in Illinois every repair shop and dealership MUST BY LAW have a signed estimate from the customer authorizing any repair that will cost over $100. Unless the customer waives that right in writing. If they didn't give you an estimate, they can't bill you for it. They CAN NOT put a "LEIN" on your title for non-payment of any unauthorized repairs. EVERY estimate and invoice must have the cars VIN#, Odometer reading, date and time of drop off and estimate.It must also have the compaines name and address printed on the reciept. Any invoice must have the cars VIN#, part number of the part they will replace and the part number of the replacement parts used (and a spot for you to decline getting the old parts back. The also must have the ILLINOIS AUTO REPAIR act printed and displayed in their shops. They said they repaired my car, gave me handwritten reciepts with no VIN#'s or part numbers on them. They lied about replacing parts. I refused to pay for lies, I had to call the police to get my car back, the cops came I was right and I got my car. But Mike Bot did have my tires slashed before he gave me the car. I was threatened, harassed and treated worse than a criminal because I called them on the fact that EVERYTHING about how they do business is criminal. Look at the websites people. See how many people have had the same, horrible and illegal experiences with Grossinger Palatine. Grossingers people will say "they are all lying, they don't pay their bills etc" But really would more than 70 people in the last 30 months pay to have complaints on the BBB website. Look at Pissed Consumer .com. Rip Off . Com-Heck google them they are awful and should be shut down. More
