Frank Schmidt is a great sales guy to do business with. No pressure, easy to talk to, and Frank leaves no question or concern unanswered. When it came time to make the purchase, Frank and the crew at Gurne No pressure, easy to talk to, and Frank leaves no question or concern unanswered. When it came time to make the purchase, Frank and the crew at Gurnee Ford were willing to negotiate on the 2013 Focus SE I bought. Jennifer May made the financial process painless and explained everything in detail. Again, no question or concern was left unanswered. This is the second new Ford I have purchased at Gurnee Ford in the last 3 years. More

We have purchased 3 cars from Gurnee Ford in the last two years. All of our purchase experiences have been great. We worked with Errol Kaplan on two of the deals and just yesterday with Cecilio Ruiz. Both years. All of our purchase experiences have been great. We worked with Errol Kaplan on two of the deals and just yesterday with Cecilio Ruiz. Both salespeople were very low pressure and worked with use to get a good deal. The thing I like most about the dealership is that they are not looking to sell you more car than you want. Both Errol and Cecilio were willing find us the car we wanted at a price we could afford. I highly recommend them. More

I we I have recently been put on Social Security with a dibilitating Lung Disability, which means that I am on a very, very strict and fixed income. I went in with a bottom line montly payment and a specific "Wish" list. Emphasising a "No Run Around Buying Experience." I told Mr. Ruiz that I wanted another Ford Focus. I was trading in a 2005 Focus and enjoyed it. I wanted Nav, Moon roof, 5 door, with BIG emphasis on "NO RED" color. We did a test drive on a very nice 2013 Focus that had all I wanted. It came in $22 a month more than I could afford. He gave me several other options and information to digest and I went home to consider the purchase. This was very impressive for me, because a few days earlier I was looking at another option at a Kia lot. The sales rep there was very annoying and made me feel I was doing him a favor than the other way around. I've never felt so pressured. He went so far as to the block the door upon my leaving saying, "What can we do to keep you from going to Ford?" and, "I'm not letting you leave till we've made a deal." He did everything a sales person can do to solidify most peoples stereo typed fear of the "Ugly Car Salesman". I get very Frustrated with that kind of attitude and desperation. Some dealerships forget about customer courtesy. Which, however, is not the case at Gurnee Ford. I was allowed to make a non pressured decision at my own pace. I felt I had choices and not forced into what I didn't want. It has been nearly 2 weeks and the only regret I have is not having more income to aquire a more expensive vehicle. But that was not to be. Mr. Ruiz offered several different choices for me to choose from. and when i came back the following day he had even better options for me. He even came in nearly $60 dollars under my stated monthly payment request. He made my car buying experience a good one. I will HIGHLY recomend this dealership as often as I can. Thank you very much, Charles Stufflebeem More

We purchased the new 2013 Escape SEL for my wife at Gurnee Ford. It's a smaller dealership and it was actually quite a pleasant experience. Everyone at the dealership was extremely accomodating and Jas Gurnee Ford. It's a smaller dealership and it was actually quite a pleasant experience. Everyone at the dealership was extremely accomodating and Jason the salesman very friendly. After our initial visit to the dealership, the manager, Kyle, called the next day to say he found and obtained the exact vehicle we wanted and it would be there that day. The next day we went back to the dealership to see it. With little effort, we made a deal and drove the car home. The process was easy and went smooth and simple. We received the trade value we wanted, we received the selling price we wanted,and we received the financing and payment we wanted. I have alot of experience at buying vehicles and this was really a good one. I wouldn't buy a Ford anywhere else. More

I had a great experience until I picked up the vehicle and they did not include a bracket for my front plate as the car was from out of state. Brandon told me to just go to a dealer closest to me and he w and they did not include a bracket for my front plate as the car was from out of state. Brandon told me to just go to a dealer closest to me and he would arrange for them to install it for me. After that I never heard back from him.He has not gotten back to me since I have completed the purchase. So I had to pay about 40 bucks to have my front bracket installed when Gurnee Ford should have done that for me no charge!!!! Very disappointing conclusion to an otherwise smooth transaction. More
