Liberty Auto Plaza

I bought 4 cars in the last 9 years from this dealership. I have owned VW's since 1968 both in this country and when I was overseas in Scotland in the service.Through all the cars I have owned and had servic I have owned VW's since 1968 both in this country and when I was overseas in Scotland in the service.Through all the cars I have owned and had serviced, I find that Liberty Auto Plaza,hands down, are the best I have come across. Starting with going into the Sales area, you can see the knowledge of the sales staff, in particular, Tom Sullivan, whom sold us our most recent purchase, a Tiguan,that he was trained right in answering all the specific questions that I asked him about the car. He knew his stuff.I would recommend anybody that is in the area to stop by and see the great deals they offer and will work with you to get the car you want. Mike and Bill in the service dept are the most professional service personnel I have come across in all my years. I have been bringing my cars in to the service dept since 2002.Always when I call, they will work with my schedule to get the car serviced and I always had a good experience with this dealership.You will feel very welcome when you stop at the service desk. You should stop by and see how this dealership is outstanding. You will be pleased. More

I bought my Routan from this dealership and have been in 5 times for service since I've had it. I haven't had a positive experience yet. Closing the sale of my vehicle took more than 3 hours with no commu 5 times for service since I've had it. I haven't had a positive experience yet. Closing the sale of my vehicle took more than 3 hours with no communication from anyone why it was taking so long. During this process you will be confronted by someone from service with the worst opening line in the history of sales trying to get you to overpay for paint protection The dealership offers an online booking option for service appointments. No one at the dealership even reads these and they will have no idea why your car is in for service, nor will they fix what you asked them to fix. No one in the service department communicates with each other. One will tell you they will loan you a car but when you get there they won't be ready for you and they won't have a car for you. If the service department tries to contact you they won't call when they said they would call you or even at the number you provided them. Then heaven forbid you try to call them back and the person you talk to has no idea why you are calling, they can't help you and you wait for I guess the one person there that has a clue to call you back. Oh, and that is after you call and get the operator who will transfer you to the wrong department three times before you get through. For as many VW dealerships as there are in the Chicagoland area, this dealership should be making a better effort to try and satisfy their customers. You have a choice and your choice should be to go somewhere else. This is my 5th VW and I won't be back to this dealership unless I have to come back. After your visit they beg you to give them good reviews on their surveys but they have nothing to deserve any good grades. More

Great dealer, customer focused and very interested in me as a peron and customer. Service has been outstanding and they use technology to schedule appts as well as reminders for my appts.

My check engine light was coming on and the engine was bogging down every time I'd hit the gas. We took the car (a 2005 Nissan Altima) to several auto/service places. All of whom found a "problem" but wit bogging down every time I'd hit the gas. We took the car (a 2005 Nissan Altima) to several auto/service places. All of whom found a "problem" but within 24 hours the check engine light was back on and the engine was bogging down again. I called Liberty Auto Plaza and they got me in the same day. They shuttled me to and from their location and found and fixed the actual problem in less than two hours. It's been months and I haven't had a problem since. The service was outstanding. And the employees I worked with we're helpful and informative and never made me feel like I was just a girl who clearly knew nothing about the way the engine worked. I would go back to Liberty Auto Plaza in a heartbeat. More

I have used this dealership a number of times and I have oftentimes been frustrated by the service I have received and in turn the expectation by the dealership that they should receive an excellent rating. oftentimes been frustrated by the service I have received and in turn the expectation by the dealership that they should receive an excellent rating. If you rate the dealership with anything other than 5 stars, they take it as a personal attack. I rarely give anything a full five stars. More

I felt the sales process was open and clear. I had priced vehicles on line and came to the dealer to view the vehicles. They did not try to sell me anything I di not want. The selection was okay but priced vehicles on line and came to the dealer to view the vehicles. They did not try to sell me anything I di not want. The selection was okay but they were willing to search other dealers for the color I wanted but I settled for one on the lot. The service people are generally friendly and concerned to make things right. I had some warranty work done and was able to get a loaner each time. I highly recommend them More

First, it's important to mention that I purchased a new Kia from this dealership in late 2002, and at THAT time had an overall good experience. Warranted service was acceptable, though not without a few h Kia from this dealership in late 2002, and at THAT time had an overall good experience. Warranted service was acceptable, though not without a few hiccups through the years. However, my last (empahasis on LAST) experience at this dealership made an indelible impression resulting in my decision to never deal with them again. To make a long story as short as possible, I discovered that neither the dealership nor the company will make a good faith effort to honor a warranty claim they can get out of by simply denying what any reasonable person would call "common sense." They did this by denying warranty coverage for an engine problem that over a two week period (that the vehicle was at the dealership) went from telling me it would be a straightforward R/R (Remove and Replace) to insisting that I should spend $500 (above the $115 or so I was already committed to just to drop off the vehicle) to tear down and inspect the engine to see if the problem was covered. Nevermind that they had already indicated that their mechanic had stated it was an "internal problem" covered by the warranty. So what was the sticking point? Regular maintenance (or oil changes, to be specific). I do a lot of my own basic service on my vehicles, and although I provided them with receipts going back more than two years (the length of time the dealership told me to provide) to show oil and filter purchases, they claimed that I couldn't prove the products had been used on my Kia! Never mind that my other vehicle is a Ford diesel truck that doesn't use the same type of oil! Why else would I buy oil (Mobil One synthetic, btw) and filters (over many years) for my Kia that could not be used in any other vehicle I owned? According to the dealership, unless I could show them receipts from an actual service center (with odometer readings and dates) they would not honor the warranty. A logbook and my purchase receipts would not be enough... Ridiculous! Now, I will admit that I didn't have as much documentation with me as I would have liked, but the idea that a thorough do-it-yourselfer with complete receipts and history could be so easily rejected is, in my opinion, a dismal failure on the part of both the dealership and the car company to provide honest, good, customer service. The dealer could have saved me two weeks of being jerked around simply by telling me from the get-go that there was no way my warranty claim would be approved. Instead, they played "reindeer games" that resulted in more bad feelings generated than would otherwise have been the case. They lost more than one customer as a result, because I will tell everyone I know why they should avoid Libery Auto Plaza, and be wary of Kia when it comes to warranty issues. For comparison, I had some serious issues with my Ford diesel that resulted in the truck being at the dealership for almost six months. Sounds bad until you find out that the Ford dealership bent over backward to accomodate me with loaner cars and service credits (Ford, not the dealership) even refunded me a very significant dollar amount for "lost use of my vehicle!" That truck is now running beautifully and I will happily purchase another Ford vehicle from THAT dealership when the time comes. Customer service and an honest effort to solve any problems that arise is key to repeat business. Libery Auto Plaza (and Kia) doesn't seem to understand that. One last thing ... I want to thank Liberty Auto Plaza for contacting me and asking me to provide a good review here. Thanks to their efforts to "pad" this website with positive reviews I am able to tell you why you should avoid walking through their doors. You would think that the dealership would have the common sense to make sure they don't ask their unsatisfied customers for help, but then they didn't use common sense in handling my warranty claim so why should they use any intelligence now?
