Buying a car from Sunset is a pleasant experience. Just don't have your vehicle serviced at the Waterloo dealership. The Sunset Hills one is great, so make sure you drive the extra distance. More

Mark, we understand how it can look when pricing online shows one thing and our staff is preaching another. The computer software we use is called Tekion, and it was inaccurate today on the consumer portal, but Thomas in St. Louis was not aware of that, in fact none of us were aware this was an issue. This software has been inaccurate with pricing in the past, but we thought the error was fixed. Lonnie was very familiar with this prior pricing error, whereas Thomas (in St. Louis) was not, which is why you were getting two different answers. I just so happened to be there by Thomas in St. Louis when this happened, and you showed me personally the screenshot of online approval on your phone. The reason I had asked for that was so I can forward it to our computer software company to get corrected, but in the meantime, I called Lonnie and told her to honor the online price. I have since opened a support ticket with our software Tekion and awaiting response. Bottom line, the prices online are failing to include any parts, so Lonnie was trying to figure out why or what to do. Now that this has been brought to our attention and Thomas' attention, our staff at both stores are doing their best to disclose this discrepancy to future guests until the issue is resolved. I just wanted you to know Lonnie was doing her best to navigate and figure out the price difference in the system, she's been with us over 5 years now and can help you with anything you need in Service. It's also good to point out that our prices and software is the same at both stores, so if Thomas would have helped you in St. Louis, he would have found out real quick why Lonnie was in such a predicament. Sorry for the misunderstanding and price disparity, but thank you for sharing it with us, it is helping us get the overall issue corrected. Thank you for your continued business with us. Please feel free to reach out to me if there is anything else. Sincerely, Justin Heutel - GM Fixed Ops, 314-467-1101, jtheutel@sunsetford.com

Rude person. I heard her speaking to an employee/tech in a very demeaning and disrespectful way. Like I was in shock. I wonder how she sleeps at night talking to More

Lonnie speaks aggressively with customers. She over talks them. She is always back peddling to explain the lie she previously stated. She is hard to get ahold of on the phone but complains More
