Carwise Gurnee advertised a vehicle online at a specific price though upon arriving at the dealership, and proceeding to the final stages of the transaction, mandatory 3rd party service add-ons that exceede price though upon arriving at the dealership, and proceeding to the final stages of the transaction, mandatory 3rd party service add-ons that exceeded $1,000 were introduced at the time of signing. These charges had not been disclosed in the original advertisement, nor at any point prior to the execution of purchase agreement documents. These add-ons were presented as non-negotiable condition of the sale. This conduct is in direct violation of the Illinois Motor Vehicle Advertising Regulations, which expressly prohibit the sale of a vehicle above its advertised price and require all material terms to be clearly and prominently disclosed at the outset of any offer. It further violates the Federal Trade Commission's Combating Auto Retail Scams Rule, which mandates that all mandatory add-ons be incorporated into the advertised offering price of the vehicle. Advertising one price while requiring consumers to pay a higher price through undisclosed mandatory charges is, without qualification, an unfair and deceptive business practice under Illinois and federal consumer protection law. This experience has been documented in full. Complaints are being filed with the Illinois Attorney General's Office and the Federal Trade Commission. Prospective buyers are strongly advised to demand a complete, itemized, out-the-door price in writing before setting foot in this dealership More

The Concierge Michelle, is a truly special person, who helped me to feel EXTREMELY Comfortable Immediately upon my arrival... Her Amazing Personality and Beautiful Smile really has the ability to brighten anyone's day... She was beyond welcoming and sweet!!! It didn't end there though, Michelle stopped by several times during the buying process to add words of encouragement, and to put my mind at ease!!! As for Antoinette, the Sales Person who helped me, she was unbelievably patient and kind through the whole process... I could just tell, Antoinette really wants every customer to have a laid back and stress free experience, of purchasing their vehicle... She has the natural ability to listen to what a customer wants and to help make that a reality... Her caring nature, made me feel like I had known her all my life, which in turn, we had some GREAT conversation throughout the process. She then brought over Lenny, the Sales Manager, who really worked with me, to negotiate the goals that I had mind, in purchasing my vehicle! Lenny truly helped to put my mind at ease, and reach the ultimate goal that I had in mind. Don't be intimidated by him, he really is a "Gentle Giant"... The Finance Manager as well, was very nice and out going... I received more than I had asked for, from her also... Overall, I was EXTREMELY Satisfied with this Beautiful Vehicle that I purchased, the process in obtaining it and the ENTIRE staff of this up and coming Dealership, "Elite Motors"... I recommend, everyone should check this dealership out, because with the team they have in place, their growth will be exponential... ~Brian B.~ A Grateful and Satisfied Customer~ More

I test drove a 2013 Honda Odyssey back in August. After the test drive, I put down a $1000 deposit on the condition that it pass an independent inspection. The salesman assured me it was a refundable After the test drive, I put down a $1000 deposit on the condition that it pass an independent inspection. The salesman assured me it was a refundable deposit. The inspection revealed some minor issues that should have been caught in the 150-point inspection they said they performed - loud squealing on ignition from the rusted tensioner assembly and a 15-degree misalignment. Not big things. I asked Elite motors if they would fix the issues before I purchase the car. They wanted to charge me $250. I said I didn't want to have hundreds of dollars in unexpected repairs before the car was off the lot. They offered to make the repairs for $225. I asked for my deposit back. At this point they ghosted me. I couldn't reach anyone for two days until finally the salesman texted back that his manager now says the deposit is non-refundable. I called repeatedly and couldn't get anyone on the phone. One salesman finally picked up - he seemed sympathetic but unable to help. He kept saying he would get more info and call back in 10 or 15 minutes but I would wait for hours to hear anything. I called repeatedly without success until another sales manager, Joseph, answered. He immediately started yelling at me and told me I could "take the f***ing car or lose my thousand dollars." He also said that Elite Motors only performs the minimum amount of repairs required by law and that he isn't obligated to fix those issues. After a few minutes of heated exchange, he hung up on me. I filed a claim with the Better Business Bureau. It took several weeks to resolve, during which time I received one call from someone at Elite Motors, who left a voicemail and never called back, while I made more than 100 calls trying to get someone on the phone to resolve the issue. They misrepresented the quality of the vehicle and the work they did on it. They lied about refunding my deposit. They made no real effort to communicate with me. They tried to steal my money. More
