I submitted a pre-approval/loan application with CarWise

I submitted a pre-approval/loan application with CarWise Gurnee and never received any response, feedback, or follow-up regarding my application. Despite this, they ran multiple hard credit inquiries, which now negatively impact my credit score. I tried calling to get clarification—no one answered or returned my calls. The complete lack of communication is unacceptable and makes me seriously question the handling of my personal information. At this point, whether I was approved or declined is irrelevant—it feels like my identity was mishandled or even stolen. Extremely unprofessional and deeply concerning experience. I would not recommend doing business with them.

Patricia was so helpful and never rushed me.

Patricia was so helpful and never rushed me. She made sure I was comfortable through the test-drive and accepted my decision to take a time out. Best car buying experience!

Steve was fantastic!

Steve was fantastic! Friendly, super knowledgeable, and helped me find the perfect Dodge. Amy quickly got me approved for an affordable loan with no hassle, but I am not ready to buy yet - nice stock of Durangos spoiled me with choices. Highly recommend CarWise Gurnee

Prior to driving 2 hours to see a car, I sent an email

Prior to driving 2 hours to see a car, I sent an email requesting very specific information on a vehicle I wanted to purchase. I am deaf and cannot call to ask questions. I received a very generic response that did not answer any of the questions I asked. They don't care to read and answer my email; I don't care to do business with them.

Thomas was incredibly helpful in guiding me through the car purchase process and test-drive of an unbelievable snow-white Camaro. I'm holding off on buying it despite the reasonable price because of the reported damage; my friend will inspect it carefully first.

Got in touch via CarGurus website and received feedback

Got in touch via CarGurus website and received feedback immediately. Agreed on a test, visited to check two nice Toyotas. No pressure experience, keep comparing my options now.

I found the most courteous service at this dealership

I found the most courteous service at this dealership after checking out four trucks at three different lots. I was able to purchase a black RAM 1500 with convenient financing, and I couldn’t be happier with my almost-new truck. I give Lance John and his team my strongest recommendation.
