Greatest Car Lot I've Ever Attended

Peggy started talking with me over the phone and told me to come on in she provided me with the details of exactly what I needed to drive off in my new Mercedes that day. She was very polite, generous, understanding, and determined to make sure that all my needs were met. The finance manager Brent was also very generous and the whole process was so quick and easy because of their service . I highly recommend this business to all my associates.

Great experience

Peggy Gunn is amazing to work with!! She went above and beyond when we visited to buy our car and even helped me afterwards with some billing questions. I would come back and buy from her!

Worst experience

Purchase a vehicle from this dealership. If they know you are restless the will take advantage in every angle possible. They sold us used car when we could have purchased a brand new 2017. They threw in a new car warranty in which we had to pay additional when it was promised once the vehicle was purchased. Do not go see Lou, Noble, or Joey(service). They will take advantage if they see the opportunity. That’s what happen to us. Went it to get brakes done and they went the cheapest route. Still having issues. They also make promises they can’t keep. Overall if you want to get cheated then by any means visit the dealship. If you want honest and sales people that care stay away.

Dealer response

Julius Cacho, We are working diligently to resolve the issues your Mom is having with the vehicle she bought. I am sorry that you feel your mom was cheated and taken advantage of, but that is just not the case. We will be putting new pads and rotors on the MDX to resolve the pulsation she is feeling. My hopes are that when all is resolved you will feel better about doing business with McGrath Acura of Chicago. Happy Holidays.

This is a dealer that keeps there word!!

Great dealers if want to buy a car! Will definitely recommend to family and friends. The people that work here are very friendly and easy to communicate,

Honest, Trustworthy --> Fantastic!

Peggy Gunn is the best! Honest and trustworthy. I will be back to buy from Peggy. She has been so helpful and attentive. Everything was just as she said. She has even checked in with me since the purchase -- great car and great staff! Brent in financing was great -- got me 1 full percentage point below my best online pre-approval and 2% below what other dealerships had quoted! Amazing.

Not gonna sell cars, if you don't follow up.

Contacted dealership several time interested in a used car. After 20 days, dealership still couldn't produce single picture. I am from Chicago area, but not local to McGrath-Chicago. I'm not driving hour out of my way to see a vehicle that can't be photographed.

Dealer response

We apologize for the inconvenience. We are continually working to provide the best possible customer experience. Your feedback is important to help us move in the right direction. Thank you, Patrick Law General Manager

AWESOME

Peggy, Mishka, Noble, and Richard worked diligently to get me approved and into something that was up to my standards! In and out within a couple of hours Peggy made sure that everything was ready and prepared when I walk through the doors! Mishka follows through with all the information I needed for the vehicle, so that I felt confident leaving off the lot with something that I knew would be reliable! Noble made sure all the paperwork was in order and answered any other final questions I had! This group of people I would and have already started recommending! THANK YOU AGAIN PEGGY GUNN and to all that assisted her and me in purchasing my new used Acura TL!! I AM A MORE THAN SATISFIED CUSTOMER!!

Amazing Amazing Amazing

Boasting about the world's greatest car buying experience! We stopped by McGrath Acura of Chicago to look at the brand as we have done for the past few months with other brands, However this dealership visit was so different, From the greeting experienced by us from Peggy, From that moment we knew we'd be in good hands! Peggy is the best! She is very warm, patient, honest and extremely knowledgeable about Acura and many other brands! She went above and beyond our expectations during this process! If you are looking to purchase a vehicle in the present or future you'd do yourself a disservice not to contact this professional, She will not disappoint I guarantee this!!!

Everything a Person can ever want in a Sales Experience

What a excellent place to buy a car! Beautiful little location, the most professional staff all around! Especially Peggy Gunn!!! This Sales Professional made my experience so much more than I imagined it could be, I was reluctant to buy a car because of past unfavorable experiences, But this time was very different, I called McGrath just to ask a few questions, Peggy was the agent that answered the phone as well as all of my questions and she even helped me do research in order to help me in making a informed choice, That I could NOT believe! Once I came in she respect my limitations on time and got me in and out, I could not be more pleased with my Acura and the McGrath buying experience, Ms. Gunn is more than amazing!!! I would highly recommend her and this dealership to my family and friends!

Sales visit

From the initial call, to the follow up texts, and finally the visit to the dealership everyone was professional and transparent. Peggy, Brian and Mishka were great to work with (serious with the right amount of fun to make this a painless experience). Definitely recommend McGrath of Chicago! Elaine
