Experience the Legacy of the Suntrup Family – proudly serving the St. Louis area since 1957. What began with Bill Suntrup opening the first dealership in the 1960s has blossomed into a multi-generational, family-run automotive empire. Just a decade after Bill launched his first dealership, his brother Don joined him, and together, they laid the foundation for what would become the Suntrup Automotive Group.
Today, the Suntrup name is synonymous with quality and trust. With over 20 family members actively involved, the Suntrup legacy continues to thrive. Bill's sons, Chris and Tom, are partners in Suntrup West County Volvo, with Tom also serving as President and CEO of Suntrup Ford Kirkwood, Suntrup Buick GMC in St. Peters, and Suntrup Ford Westport.
On the other side of the family tree, Don’s children, Butch and Craig, are proud partners in Suntrup Nissan/Volkswagen, Suntrup Kia, Suntrup Hyundai, and BMW of West St. Louis. As Craig Suntrup reflects, "We all started early in the business, around age 12, doing the grunt work—washing cars, cleaning parts, and painting walls."
The Suntrup family’s commitment to hard work, community, and exceptional service is at the heart of everything we do. We invite you to experience the Suntrup difference—where tradition meets innovation, and every customer is treated like family.

I brought my vehicle to Suntrup for a warranty oil leak. While in their possession, the car received damage after an employee drove it into a dirt mound. I was not informed of the damage at the time. Instea While in their possession, the car received damage after an employee drove it into a dirt mound. I was not informed of the damage at the time. Instead, an employee apologized for the delay on the return of my car. He stated there was still some dirt on it that needed to be cleaned off so he ran it through the carwash while I waited outside. I thought this was odd because I knew there was no dirt on it when I brought it in. I drove the car home, and in my garage, noticed dirt all on the front end and that my bumper was broken and separated from the drivers side fender, and part of the grill was broken. That same day of the damage, I left a message with the service representative I had been working with. She stated that Suntrup is responsible and arranged for me to drop my car off on Tuesday, April 22nd 2025, and that a loaner would be issued. The next day I received multiple unauthorized driving alerts from the Kia app linked to my vehicle during the time it was at the dealership. On Wednesday, April 23rd 2025, my car went on three trips: these three separate driving trips each triggered email alerts to me that my car was being driven at speeds in excess of 85 mph. I assert that Suntrup was using my car as a runner vehicle. The team's actions including the vehicle damage, the attempt to cover up the damage, and the unauthorized, reckless use of my carall represent a violation of their duty of care. My car lost value due to the accident, I spent money for a car that sat at a body shop for a month, and I lost a month of a bumper to bumper warranty, as well as increased mileage on my car due to unauthorized, illegal use.

BJ in the financial department was just as amazing as she was! He was patient with me while I waited to see what rate my current lien holder would offer and he ended up beating their offer and the original offer he found while waiting! It was great! Left the dealership all smiles More

I unexpectedly had to search for a car after a total loss that was not my fault. It was not ideal right around the Holidays but Suntrup and Hunter made so many anxieties go away.
