RETRACTION, RETRACTION of a former review

I owe Tapp Motors (Jr and Sr) a wholehearted apology for what I wrote last night. Seems like we all had challenging days yesterday and our lines of communications were BROKEN. You know, I’ve always given advice about email like this: Write what you want, but NEVER, EVER send an emotional email... I broke my own rule. Also, if you have a problem and misunderstanding then pick up the phone, walk over and have a friendly conversation to clear the air. So, that’s what I did earlier today after not sleeping much last night. I called both gents and explained my feelings and why I abruptly left the lot yesterday. They were very gracious and we all apologized for poor communication. I felt better, they felt better and everyone is smiling and laughing... Life is GOOD! After such a misunderstanding and we’re able to “shake hands” and part friends says A LOT about the Character of the Tapp Family. It’s not often a rather bad communication can be settled and without hard feelings. It’s ALL about the more often and not practiced “Golden Rule”.... Sadly we’re often too busy to stop and smell the roses and more importantly LISTEN. God gave us two ears to one mouth. Gentlemen and The Family of Tapp Motors.... Please accept apology for my err in judgment. I’d gladly send friends and family your way in the future. Class Act!

Good experience.

I inquired about about a used car for my son, the salesman was very helpful and the car was a fair deal. A good experience.

Disappointed

I recently purchased a Mercedes GL 550 from Tapp Motors. Over the years my family had done a lot of business with Tapp and I felt that purchasing a vehicle would be a decent experience. However within two weeks of my purchasing the vehicle, it broke down and the power steering went out. I began experiencing problems with the steering almost immediately but never thought that it would completely break down. It was obvious that the problem existed at the time I bought the car. I immediately contacted Tapps who said they would take the vehicle to get it fixed. After I was without my car for an entire week, I finally received a phone call from the mechanic stating it was ready and that Tapps would be covering the cost replacing the power steering pump. Unfortunately 30 minutes later I receive a call from our salesman that we would have to pay the labor on the repairs because they don't warranty their vehicles. Had the car broke down months after I had it, this might be justifiable, but it was within weeks. When I tried to explain this to our salesman he simply stated that once it drives off the lot, they are no longer responsible. It is unfortunate that this is the type of customer service they feel is acceptable especially as a local business. I paid for the repairs but I don't think that I should have to have paid for anything, they sold it to me with the issue. This is the first and last vehicle I will purchase from them. Customers beware that customer service and customer retention is obviously not high on their priority list. They must be fine with a one and done customer!

Traded 2 vehicles for one.

I was looking for a dealer that would give me a fair trade for my Corvette allowing me to upgrade to a newer truck. . Tapp Motors offered me a fair trade for my corvette and old truck on a Chevy Colorado. I have known the Tapp family for years but this was my first car deal with them. I was very pleased with every aspect of the deal.They were very courteous and did every thing they said they would. My wife and I were very pleased with the complete transaction.

Great Dealership

Bought a 2003 Miata from this Dealership in Fall 2009. Basically traded on the phone (live close to Mt Vernon, Il) car was everything was told plus more. No hassle, nothing but very positive attitude from sales staff to office. One thing that impressed me most was my feeling that the Sales Staff did not treat me like "FEMALE" customer. Would recommend this dealership among the best I have ever had dealings with.
