Libertyville Mazda

My experience with Libertyville Mazda following the purchase of a new vehicle in December 2024 has been profoundly negative and indicative of serious operational shortcomings. Firstly, the Business purchase of a new vehicle in December 2024 has been profoundly negative and indicative of serious operational shortcomings. Firstly, the Business Manager, Gabriel, failed to provide me with a complete set of contractual documents at the time of purchase. Secondly, I was pressured by Gabriel to purchase additional coverage. I promptly requested the cancellation within one week and received assurances that the necessary paperwork would be processed. However, after three months, I contacted Mazda Finance and the insurance provider and they confirmed that Libertyville Mazda never submitted the cancellation request. This failure to fulfill a basic administrative obligation is deeply troubling. The lack of accountability and the dealership's continued silence regarding the reason for this oversight are unacceptable. To date, no explanation has been offered. Based on these experiences, I cannot recommend Libertyville Mazda as a reputable dealership. I strongly advise prospective buyers to exercise extreme caution, particularly regarding any additional coverage offered by the finance department. More

Sales here is just a different way in a horrible way. Their pictures on the website deceiving and prices are higher than literally anyone in area. Please caution and go over all their used and possibly n Their pictures on the website deceiving and prices are higher than literally anyone in area. Please caution and go over all their used and possibly new cars and if you are not experienced then ask to have it brought to a third party mechanic to go over before purchasing. I looked at a used car and under the hood the air filter was dirty, it was missing a power steering cap, there was thousands in damages to the body plus a damaged /sticky dash they claimed was from "the detailing product" used on it which was not, its a common issue on older mazdas. They were asking more than KBB or Black Book value and when questioned, they said they price their vehicles at "market going rate" and in which I found not a couple but several around the same here with lower mileage and or a year or two newer in extremely better shape for less. I have been in automotive and worked for several dealers and never seen or experienced this till with them specifically so the belief that big dealers are trusting and small ones are not is for sure NOT THE CASE. If you buy from here, please go over everything to let a vehicle sell with basic items bad or missing especially a power steering cap to let the fluid get contaminated is just mind boggling and will cost thousands to the power steering system in future. This shows they don't care about the customer, only profit. More

No Communication! My tire pressure light came on this morning, so I called service to see if they can take a look at my car and if needed to put air in my tire. I went My tire pressure light came on this morning, so I called service to see if they can take a look at my car and if needed to put air in my tire. I went to the dealership service area and the guy "sure, we can take a look at it". I waited for a while, which was perfectly fine. After a while, I see my car pulled up and I noticed that they washed my car. I go to meet the person bringing my car and he says "your car is ready and good to go". I say, "well what happened to my car? who gave permission to wash my car? what was the tire issue, and what was done to fix it?". He said, "oh someone should have spoken to you about it." I said, "no, no one did". At this point, I inspected my car, specifically the hood of my car (which I will explain later). I saw some immediate fine scratches. I was pissed. So I went to talk to the person who originally took my car. I asked "what was done to the tire of my car, how did the problem get resolved and who gave the permission to wash my car?" He didn't have any idea what was done to my tire, so he had to go ask. They told me that, my rear passenger side had a nail and they plugged it for me. I said okay fine. But who washed my car? He said we did, it was complimentary. I said, I never asked for a car wash. I brought the car in for a simple check up of my tires and for someone to tell me what is going on and to consult with me on what I needed done or how to proceed. I then began to explain to him, why I was very upset about the car wash. I have only gone to Napelton Mazda dealerships since I bought my car in September 2017. I only went to Arlington Heights Napelton Mazda for oil change services and noticed that I had several scratches on my black vehicle that was even on both sides of my car, which could only be explained by car washes. Therefore I decided to pay out of my own pocket to a very nice auto body show, who did water sand washing and buffed out my scratches on my hood only (because I did not want to do the entire car at the time) and made a decision at that time that I would never take my car to get washed at a dealer and I had not washed my car since I got it buffed out. I saw scratches immediately on the hood of my car, after the Napelton in Libertyville washed my car without my permission. The man that helped me, said "his car wash is brand spanking new" and therefore it could not be their car wash that caused this. He was rude, and made everything seem like it was my fault. Then went on to say how I should be happy because they fixed my tire, which had a nail in it and they plugged it for free which it should have been a $30.00 charge. I said, I did not ask you to perform a service for free, I will pay for it if you would like. But at no time, did anyone consult with me that there was a nail and whether I wanted it to be plugged or what we should do or how we should proceed. Nor did anyone ask if I wanted a car wash. It is not the dealers right to perform such services and or acts to my car without my permission. I am furious at the service and incompetence of Mazda Napelton. I will NEVER recommend anyone to come to your location. I came to this location when I first started looking at purchasing a vehicle last year and I felt the people were rude and unhelpful at this location and therefore we went with another dealer. I love my car and take care of it. I am so upset that this dealership service people were rude. I have had numerous issues with the Napelton family and the way they take care of their customers. More
