I thought that like everything else BMW, the cost would be prohibitive. It turned out the cost of the shield was about $175 and the 1/2 hour of labor about $50. (I am sure the time to install was about 5 minutes.) Before I went in, I looked online for a coupon. It turned out the Chicago BMW dealers had a $50 savings for a parts and labor BILL of $200 or more. I got out for about $175 and got a great breakfast - omelette with my choice of fillings at their cafe. More

Terrific! I live very close to Perillo BMW. I chose to purchase my last two cars from Fields BMW Northfield because of the respect and attention I receive. Not I live very close to Perillo BMW. I chose to purchase my last two cars from Fields BMW Northfield because of the respect and attention I receive. Not only the service manager but everyone I speak with. The girls behind the desk are always friendly. It's comfortable and the little café is such a treat. My car comes out sparkling. Everything in order plus a few tips given for a long trip I am taking. Just all around the best place for me and my car. No complaints. Great place. I will buy my next car here. More

They tell me whether or not s Everyone is always very helpful and accommodating. Service agents explain everything and there are usually no surprises. They tell me whether or not something is truly needed and discuss all options before service. I have dealt mainly with Jerry and Chris and am very happy with their service. While BMW is not the cheapest service, and I have had some smaller work done at a local place, especially since my car is out of warranty, I am always confident in bringing it to Fields that it will be done right.

Terrible service experiences - NOT recommended I made the mistake of purchasing a BMW X3 from Fields Northfield several years ago. The car has underperformed for a BMW - NOT quality engineering. I made the mistake of purchasing a BMW X3 from Fields Northfield several years ago. The car has underperformed for a BMW - NOT quality engineering. It has been in the shop more times than I can count. Everything has gone wrong. And the service has been the most disappointing I have ever had with any car dealer. They routinely overcharge anytime they touch the vehicle. Be prepared to spend thousands and thousands on repairs. While other auto specialists offer FREE diagnostics by hooking up computers in today's world, BMW charged OVER $500 just to identify the problem with a Service Engine light. (Read online that a do-it-yourselfer fixed the same problem in 30 minutes and the parts were half the cost.). So it took a BMW technician 5 hours to diagnose the same problem and another several hours to fix it. Sure.... NOT trustworthy! More
NOT GOOD AT ALL! Reps are arrogant and sarcastic. No follow through. Wait time rediculous. I was beginning to believe they were prejudice. Bought a new BMW some where Reps are arrogant and sarcastic.

Field's invests in it's people and in it's facilities which August 14, 2014 I have been an exclusive customer of Field’s BMW for my last four cars over the previous twelve year period. Aside from the pleasu August 14, 2014 I have been an exclusive customer of Field’s BMW for my last four cars over the previous twelve year period. Aside from the pleasure and sense of security that I get from driving a BMW, I have always felt great satisfaction in dealing with the Field’s organization. Field’s culture of integrity and responsiveness pervades universally throughout the organization. I have consistently found these attributes amongst all employees from sales managers right on down to the car hops in the service bays. This ethic of responsiveness and conscientious customer care is well exemplified by the Field’s service team. Within the last five years, Field’s management has invested millions of dollars in the infrastructure of the Field’s service center. Like most people, I despise those very rare but unexpected visits for service, but the Field’s facility has been engineered for comfort and efficiency. From when I pull into the well lit and clean service bay and my name comes up on the overhead flat screen, I am already feeling taken care of. Service advisers, like Ken Learnahan, who most recently worked looked after me, are stationed nearby at easily spotted service kiosks. All information and service records are easily accessed by the advisers through banks of computers that sit on each service kiosk. So there is never anxiety about potential duplication or omission. Consistent with my previous experiences, Ken was attentive, informed, well trained and concerned about my issue. He communicated frequently with me throughout the process. Most importantly, the work always gets done correctly and in accordance with the specified budget. Loaners are consistently available and are usually of the current model year. I feel like the Field’s organization values my business and Fields has shown that appreciation by continuing to invest in their people like Ken and in the tools that Ken needs to do his job well.

Sharing my experiences I bought my BMW X3 from a different dealer but switched to Fields because my husband had bought his car from Fields, so we decided to stick to one dea I bought my BMW X3 from a different dealer but switched to Fields because my husband had bought his car from Fields, so we decided to stick to one dealer. We live in the city and I would drive my car all the way (fighting traffic) just so I could get to Fields because I've always loved the fact that the people are nice, the place is clean and organized, the service advisors are very friendly and the people/team working on the car are very knowledgeable. I took my car in for repairs and an oil change in May and July 2014 and both times I had Jerry Marichal as my service advisor. Jerry was great. He knew my husband and our history with Fields. He made sure I was taken care of with regards to getting a car while my car had to be fixed for a few days. He would call to give me updates on my car. I had also requested for Skip to work on the car and he did a wonderful job. He was very efficient and came up to me to explain the work that was done to my car. I appreciated that. Thank you Jerry and Skip. Keep up the good work. More
