This team pulled a classic bait and switch on me. I confirmed the out-the-door price in writing with Mario and Shawn, that my appointment was still honored, and the car was available at 2pm with Mario. More

Hi Sonia, Thank you for alerting us of your experience, we greatly appreciate your feedback. We strive for excellence throughout the dealership, and it is troubling to hear that your interaction has been less than satisfactory. We aim to sell vehicles and represent them in a manner that we can proudly exemplify as a business, and to know that you were anything less than satisfied is disheartening. I would appreciate the opportunity to speak with you regarding this matter so I can better understand the issue at hand and we can work towards a resolution. Please respond privately to the review with your preferred information or you contact me at your earliest convenience. I will respond to your Yelp review as well. Sincerely, Richard Kirkpatrick General Manager (847) 425-7711

Richard reached out to me to apologize for the actions of his team. He clarified that the car was paid for (transaction happened at 3:45 PM). The team failed to act on notifying me at all. He asked if there was anything that could be done to make it better? My answer: this behavior needs to stop altogether. Richard explained that he was brought on as a staff member 4 months ago, with the expressed purpose to address problems like this. which confirms the negative feedback I've seen posted by others (see also on Yelp). I would rather pay another dealer more money for better treatment. I hope that the team at Autobarn Evanston Volkswagen changes their behavior toward solo female buyers.
