Service reps has to be making a Commission, Changed the bearing and a speed sensor on one wheel and cost of parts about $380. They added on extra hour and1/2 that made it 3 hours labor Grand Total $900.i Do a lot of mechanic work myself and know this only take like an hour and a 1/2 to do. They automatically think because you come in there with a new car That you have money Well find another Toyota dealership to deal with

Thank you, Classic Toyota, for helping me get my dream car! This was the first purchase of a brand new vehicle for my wife and I, so I was anxious and nervous to go through this process, especially in 2021 with all of the market inflation, and after contacting over 20 local dealerships without any luck. However, the staff at Classic Toyota were on a whole other level. From the first email and phone call with Philip, it was all a seamless process - from working with my credit union, to adding accessories, all of my questions were answered, and it never felt like the stereotypical transaction you hear about. What set all of my expectations apart was the fantastic experience I had once I flew in to the dealership to take ownership of my new 4Runner. I was picked up by Brandon who walked me through the whole procress and made me feel like a VIP. Everyone treated me amazingly and made our first purchase of a brand new vehicle something that I will remember for years to come.

Leo Melesio was very helpful, kind and informative while I waited for my brand new RAV4. He stayed in touch with me and offered great advice while I was shopping for my new car. He has been my salesmen for my last 2 cars and I’ve always had such a positive experience with him. This time was no different. Thanks so much Leo!

Love this place!! The very best customer service anywhere. Honest, fair and they go out of their way to please the customer. I have been to dealerships who told me I needed $800 worth of repairs. When I took to Classic for a second opinion, they said no work was needed. They are so trustworthy it is very refreshing!! Always goes the extra mile.

We had a great experience buying our Rav 4. Our salesman was Leo Melesio and he was great. Very helpful, not pushy and really really nice. So if you’re looking for a new Toyota, go to Classic Toyota and ask for Leo.

Besides the assistant service manager being totally rude and argumentative, he over charged me money that insurance paid the dealership directly (he accidently gave me a copy of the check with my paper work) and told me to get the refund from insurance it was not his problem. when I asked him to show me the work preformed, he said no. then i insisted. they charged my insurance $3700 for a new hiring harnesses and almost $6500 total for parts and labor because the old wiring harness was chewed by squirrels. look at the pictures I attached. they did not give me a new harnesses, they repaired the old one and the squirrels bit marks still in it proves it along with the word of 3 other mechanics I checked with. when I asked the assistant service manager about it, he said to take it up with my rep on Monday. this is insurance fraud and I already contacted state farm about it. be careful with these shady practices

Classic Toyota does it again, such a pleasure doing business with this dealer. Will our salesman did an outstanding job. He kept us informed the whole time due to the car shortage we had to wait about two months. We finally got our vehicle. A big thanks to Will and John thats in finance for the excellent service.

Couldnt find the truck I wanted in my home state so I expanded my search. Classic Toyota had the vehicle I wanted in transit to their dealership and Esmi quickly responded to my interest. Will Meza reached out to me to let me know the truck just arrived, sent pictures, and we worked out a fair deal over the phone. He took a deposit to hold it and even picked me up at the airport and brought me to the dealership. Zero surprises when I got there as well. Over all great car buying experience and would highly recommend doing business here!

One of the best places to get a car. Tyler the salesman was amazing and very professional, he was able to land me in the exact vehicle I wanted and the selection was huge since the dealership is huge and importable. Not pushy and able to deliver prices that are very reasonable to all. Friendly atmosphere. Managers are all nice as well!

BE CAREFUL. I suggest not buying their paint protection package. First of all, they pressured me into a $1400 paint protection package that I couldve gotten anywhere else for $500, but I figured why not. Then when I got the car back, a week later I noticed two touchup paint spots on my driver rocker as if someone had accidentally kicked off the paint with a boot. I called the dealer and they said they dont carry touch up paint. The paint protection was done by a 3rd party, and they dont even have cameras!!! They have refused any sort of compensation, have not really taken my request seriously, and are kind of treating this whole situation as a he will get tired and stop calling. JUST BE CAREFUL.

The sales associate Will was very helpful and friendly today, wasn’t pushy at all and he was very accommodating of our needs and interests. My family has been coming here for years and even though I’ve moved to the city now we still always come here.

Leo Melesio worked with us through the COVID pandemic to get us our new Toyota Venza. He was extremely helpful, upfront and not pushy. He spent a tremendous amount of time with us in person, on the phone and via emails. He was able to get us exactly what we wanted for a great price. As well, Kevin in financing was very helpful and did not push anything on us. We had a great experience and are thankful for each of them!

GO TO ZACH!!!! I REPEAT GO TO ZACH HUDSON!!! HES THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!!! YOULL BE SORRY IF YOU DIDNT!!! I purchased a 2021 Corolla XSE from this wonderful family owned dealership over the weekend. Upon arrival Zach was happily ready to service me. I mean literally hopped up and listened to my every concern. Instantly got the car that I had came down from Milwaukee to look at. I test drove it and instantly fell in love with it at first sight. The process was easy going. I wasnt in there for hours or anything like that. His patience with me and my autistic son was literally more valuable than that of diamonds. I got the perfect car!!! And with the perfect salesman! He wasnt a phony like most car salesman; he was honest and true. Thats all that I wanted and honestly thats all that most people look for in a salesman. I strongly recommend EVERYONE to go to this man! Wonderful personality! All hands down. Hes a real one (^ _ ^). You dont get many salesman like him nowadays. Keep stepping on their necks, Zach!!!!! Thank you so much!! And thank you Classic Toyota for having him on the team!!!

The only place my family and I go for our cars. Leo Melesio is our favorite sales guy there. Before going in he knew what car I really wanted and made sure there was one available. He even went in on his day off. He made the whole process so easy and definitely got us a good deal trading in our car. Leo genuinely wants to make sure we’re satisfied with our new car. I’m so happy with my new 2021 RAV4!

Went to 2 different dealers before toyota and i hate it, feels like they always take advantage of you. But Will is different, made me feel comfortable and not rushed, showed all my options without letting me feel hes selling me something and just giving proper advice.

Whenever I walk into a car dealership I am always skeptical and defensive. It is very rare to sign your life away and the event is actually enjoyable. Well our sales specialist Leo Melesio at Toyota on Grand Ave. in Waukegan has definitely changed my perspective. He was so personable that he sold my mom a car and she didn’t even know it. We laughed and joked and really had a wonderful Experience. Thanks for lightening the load and lessening the blow Leo. Your the best.

This is a crazy car market becuase of the shortage in computer chips. I went to nearly every dealership in the Chicagoland area looking for a Sienna. Every other dealership was charging over sticker with several thousand in fees such as delivery, add-ons, addendums etc.Out of over 15 dealerships, Esmi, Anthony and Kevin at Classic Toyota got the deal done with honesty in pricing, a discount and delivery. I really appreciated them in this market. Their actions showed a balance of customer service and profit that no other dealer around me did.Thank you Esmi, Anthony and Kevin!
