We had previously arranged an appointment with Gurnee Chrysler/Dodge via their web site. I had specific model, color, and optional equipment that I wanted met. Mike, after finding that their inventory did not include the exact Pacifica model I wanted, took time to search other dealers for this specific model. It was found in another state. Gurnee Dodge sent Mike to that dealer located in Ohio to drive it to their Gurnee location, and without any added delivery charge. The price of the car reasonable and below the average local selling price. Mike and all of the other people we met were very friendly. Mike is an especially nice guy to deal with. When we went to pick-up my new Chrysler, Mike worked with the service department to get the splash guards installed before we left their dealership. More

Under New Management but still horrible service. I purchased a ram from this dealership years ago and swore I would never return because of their service department. As they say time heals all wounds I purchased a ram from this dealership years ago and swore I would never return because of their service department. As they say time heals all wounds so I decided to return and possibly purchase a ram 2018. I was probably in the dealership for less than 15 minutes before I got a bad taste in my mouth from the sales people, needless to say I went up the street to Chevy and purchased a 2018 Chevy Silverado. Upon seeing my new Chevy my wife got the new car jitters and wanted a Jeep Compass. There's only two close dealerships that carry Jeep one is Gurnee and one is in Antioch we visited both. This time around Gurnee salesman did not play around as they saw what happened before and they gave me and my wife the best deal for the Jeep. Three days later my wife's 2018 fully loaded Jeep Compass is in the service department. First there's a really bad leak somewhere on the vehicle which leaked all over my garage floor, 2nd the fog lights would not come on in auto.Patrick was the service rep that was taking care of me in the service department. There was no communication whatsoever as far as the status of my vehicle. I called within 2 days for an update, I was told Patrick will call me right back. No call, next day I called back and was told the same thing Patrick would call me back. Again no call, finally I called and wanted to speak to someone besides Patrick they directed me to the store manager who I used as a sounding board to vent, then Patrick called me back. My wife's vehicle was in the service department for about 5 days. Needless to say it seems the service department Under New Management still doesn't value the customers. My advice go to a dealership that wants you as a lifelong customer, who's going to treat you just as good after you purchase your vehicle as when they were trying to get you to purchase it. My salesman was Mike, and I believe Kevin he was a newer employee. More

Great Experience and Heartfelt This review is written from my heart to all the people at Gurnee Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram! I want to say Thank You to every person that made the trans This review is written from my heart to all the people at Gurnee Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram! I want to say Thank You to every person that made the transaction of my new 2017 Jeep Cherokee a success. Each person contributed to the sale and made it not only seamless, but heart felt. I appreciated all the friendly customer service, knowledge and care that each person gave as I walked in the door and was greeted by my salesman, Mike Ballard. As my decision became clear on the type of vehicle I wanted, the Finance Manager, Mandy Martin, and General Manager Tony Anzelno worked to create a financial agreement that I couldn't refuse. It made me very happy to trade in my Chrysler 200 that I loved and was ready for a new owner! I also want to Thank Jeff, Maddy and the porters for everything they did to prepare and allow me to drive away in this beautiful luxury car. If you are in the market for a new or used car, I highly recommend Gurnee Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram! More
