Mark and Chris were great.
Mark and Chris were great. Chris got the estimate done while I waited. Mark worked with Progressive to get quality replacement parts for the repair. Their 2 guys, Patrick and Rolando did excellent repair work. The Escape looked great. I highly recommend Willowbrook Ford body shop if you need work.
2023 Ford Explorer XLT
Have only had vehicle for 3 weeks but really like it. I’ve had F150’s for the past 12 years and thought I’d miss my truck, but I’m really enjoying this explorer. It’s more comfortable and fun to drive and the gas mileage is better.

It was a fast and easy process.
It was a fast and easy process. John Czec was very helpful and straight to the point. Overall, I had a good experience at this dealership.
Nice vehicle
Quiet, comfortable and powerful car. I have the twin turbo that puts out 400 hp. General gas mileage is 19-20 city and 24-25 highway. The only thing that I would change on this vehicle is that I would like to be able to turn off some of the automatic operations on a semi-permanent basis.

We had such an amazing experience working with Michael
We had such an amazing experience working with Michael Kajdanowski! From the moment we walked into the dealership, he made the entire process feel smooth, calm, and honestly… luxurious. It was a late Saturday night, and despite the timing, Michael never rushed us. He took the time to walk my husband and me through all the features, answered every question with patience, and made sure we felt confident in our decision. What we appreciated most was the low-pressure approach — it truly felt like he was there to support us, not sell to us. This was my very first time stepping into a Lincoln dealership, and I completely fell in love with the Lincoln Aviator. Michael made it happen for us to get exactly what I wanted — my color, fully loaded, and at a price that honestly exceeded our expectations. The entire team worked together to make the numbers make sense, and we were able to walk out of the showroom with our vehicle that same night. What made this experience even more meaningful is that Michael helped make this happen for our business. This wasn’t just a car purchase — it was a major milestone for us, and he truly honored that. He understood the importance behind the decision and supported us every step of the way. The experience felt aligned, easy, and elevated from start to finish. We never felt pressured, only supported, and that made all the difference. Michael’s professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care for his clients truly stood out. If you’re looking for someone who will guide you through the process with transparency, patience, and excellence, Michael is your person. We are beyond grateful for the experience and absolutely love our new Aviator. Thank you, Michael, for making this such a special and memorable milestone for us!
Impressive
This is the first explorer that I have owned in nearly 30 years. I am coming from a ram 1500. I am surprised how comfortable this explorer is I’m really enjoying the gas mileage between 21 to 23 in town. I have not taken a trip on the highway yet.

I had an outstanding experience working with Ernie and
I had an outstanding experience working with Ernie and the team at Packey Webb Ford. From start to finish, the communication and professionalism were top-notch. I live in Las Vegas while the dealership is in Illinois, and despite the distance, Ernie made the entire process incredibly smooth. He kept me informed every step of the way, was always easy to reach, and took the time to answer all of my questions. What impressed me the most was the level of service and transparency. I actually purchased two vehicles from two different dealerships during the same timeframe, and the experience with Packey Webb Ford was night and day better. The way Ernie and his team handled everything truly set them apart. If you?re looking for a dealership that values customer service, communication, and making the buying process easy?even from across the country?I highly recommend Packey Webb Ford. Thank you again to Ernie and the entire team for delivering a 5-star experience. ?????

Service Advisor, Nicholas Moore went above and beyond. He asked probing questions about the issues I was having and he did a deep dive into my car history and found it was a known software issue. Bing, bang, boom! I was out in no time with my troubles behind me. I will recommend Nicholas anytime.

I worked with Rocky and had an amazing experience. This was my first car purchase from a dealership of any sort so I was very nervous, but he was incredibly kind and helpful and explained everything I had questions on. He was very thorough and I felt super satisfied when I walked off the lot with my car. Cannot thank him enough! Same with Matt the financial adviser there, he was also incredibly thorough and kind and explained anything I had questions on! I highly recommend this dealership and these guys! They were amazing! :D
