will begin by saying dealing with car salesmen and car dealerships have always been a nightmare…read more I've bought or leased many cars and trucks over these many years and in each case the salesmen and dealerships annoyed me and tried squeezing every penny out of me. Buying a car became a 5-hour ordeal. And then I was told I should visit Wickstrom in Barrington. So I did. Dealing with Wickstrom and Don DiPaulo was unlike any other car experience I had. I wanted a two door Wrangler and BOOM! - there it was. Don didn't try to shove the 4-door down my throat or dance the jig trying to get me to go for the Wagoneer. There was no "add this" or "you really need undercoating - now!" The entire experience was painless - Don DiPaulo was very pleasant and accommodating and (I couldn't believe this part) I didn't want to strangle him and (even more unbelievable) i was out of there in less than 90 minutes. I do recommend heading to Wickstrom next time you're thinking of buying a car or truck. You'll be surprised, pleased and delighted at how well you are treated - especially if you search out Don DiPaulo.

I recently purchased a new car from Wickstrom Auto Group, and I couldn't be happier with the…read moreexperience--thanks in large part to Eric Jensen. From the moment I walked in, Eric made the entire process smooth, transparent, and genuinely enjoyable. He took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for, answered all of my questions without any pressure, and made sure I felt confident every step of the way. His knowledge, professionalism, and friendly approach really stood out. What truly set this experience apart from any dealership I've worked with in the past was how seamless and efficient everything was. Eric was a true one-stop resource--handling everything from the vehicle details to paperwork and financing. There was no back-and-forth between different departments, which made the process incredibly straightforward. Remarkably, I was able to walk in, complete everything, and drive out with the keys in hand in about an hour. That level of efficiency is almost unheard of when buying a car, and it made a typically time-consuming experience refreshingly easy. If you're in the market for a new vehicle, I highly recommend working with Eric Jensen at Wickstrom Auto Group--you'll be in great hands. I am thankful I stumbled upon doing business with Eric and at same time annoyed I just found him. I don't foresee working with anyone else next time I am in the market and it's great that as part of Wickstrom Auto Group he can support the Ford and Lincoln models in addition to Jeep.

This guy is so nasty and so non-customer oriented, he must have worked at Radio Shack previously. That's the only business I can think of where the employees went out of their way to talk down to the customer. I arrived at 8:55AM. It was a very simple transaction that needed to be completed, purchase of two items with "free installation" as advertised in their windows and advertising. Not talking about anything like an alternator or fuel filter, this was a five-minute thing, relatively easy for someone who has done it in the past. Now 9:15. Took 20 minutes to complete the purchase part of the transaction, has Logan had to make sure he had exercised his superior knowledge of car parts over me, as if that would somehow make me submit to ..... what? No idea. Installation? "Well, I had a guy due at 9AM, so if you want to wait, he should be around anytime in the next half hour." Sure. Returned to the car. Surprise! Guy came out a few minutes later and fiddled a bit before telling me he wasn't really an install guy, but he'd go get the right guy. Tick-tock, tick-tock. Now 35 minutes past the time I walked in the store. Damn, it's not like it's a doctor's office where you expect to wait or even a take-out meal. It's an auto parts store. They deal with the same crap every single day. But that was enough for me. Went inside with the parts and asked for a refund. Logan Logan Logan wanted to argue. ARGUE. Never again. Never. Oh, postscript. You know how you've read about customers' receipts at different businesses that had ethnic or other slurs on the receipts? At the bottom of mine? "General Lee" "Confused." Not written, printed by the POS right on the receipt. I hope you have a long and ever-spiraling downward career Logan. Yelp needs to add a ZERO rating. This is the first "one" I have given in fifteen years.

The dealership was busy yet we were greeted quickly and on a test drive within 10 minutes. They were also very accommodating with a couple of special requests we had. I received a follow up phone call the morning after we picked up the car checking to see if there was anything else we needed. Thanks to Kevin and Josh for a great buying experience.

This is in regards to the service department at McGrath Volvo in Barrington…read more I had a very poor experience with the service department at McGrath Volvo, specifically working with Mark Kuzinar and his manager, Dariusz Wieczorkiewicz. My vehicle was kept for several months with minimal and inconsistent communication. During this time, I was told that the warranty company had been contacted a few times regarding the necessary repairs. However, after experiencing repeated delays, I contacted the warranty company directly and was informed that no contact had been made when he stated he did, nor had any explanation for the repairs been submitted so ultimately, they denied my claim. I was ultimately presented with a $14,000+ repair estimate, with no clear justification or progress toward warranty approval. The overall experience felt disorganized and lacked transparency or customer advocacy. At what point do you stand behind Volvos good name? After transferring my vehicle to another Volvo dealership, the warranty was approved and the repairs were completed within one week, confirming that the issue was not the vehicle but how it was handled. Overall service department lacks professionalism and accountability. They saw a job that wasn't going to make them any additional money and plan old didn't want to do the job so he used everything in his power to deter me from fighting to get it done at McGrath Volvo. To add insult to injury, the other Volvo dealership I took it to for service stated that the suspension is messed up, struts and bearings were shot too, the motor mounts were left off and a coolant leak. So basically they sabotaged my car because upon bringing it there, the inspection said there was no suspension issues or coolant leaks. Due to the lack of communication, follow-through, and professionalism, I cannot recommend the service department at McGrath Volvo and would advise others to proceed with caution and not go here and save yourself a headache. During this whole process, the service was extremely rude and dismissive.
