This place is a rip off. I encourage any and every one to stay away from this Car Outlet. I bought a car from here 4 years ago. Not only did I pay 26,000 for a car that was marked 8,000, my car was totaled out and Chicago Car Outlet took more out of my settlement than was owed to them. When I called to see why they were taking more then I owed, I was hung up on. I called back multiple times to speak to a manager and was unsuccessful. Nobody wanted to speak to me nor break down why I was being robbed out of my total loss settlement. This place is a horrible place to buy a car and should be shut down. read more

A big total rip off for all people and especially for there own Mexican people, they take advantage of their own people more than they take care of them because they know they have no drivers license and they figured You don't know anything so they're going to screw you over and double their prices on you cause they know you won't complain about it , don't be stupid they will charge you $8000-$10,000 more than what the car is worth and what they do after you buy the car is , they put a GPS on the car so if you don't make one payment they come and take your car away from when you don't know it cause YOU stupid idiot sign that contract, and then they go back and resell it for the same money and take you to court to get you for the money they screwed you on. don't fall for these people See an attorney if they have done this to you for people with no drivers license and if you just gave them a Mexican ID , by law they weren't even suppose to sell you that car and you could get that car for free in court!! Contract states for only legal residents of the USA !!! These people should be closed down !!!! Example a 2008 hummer H3 with 121,000 miles Should be around $11,500-$12,500 I took some screen shots of Car guru.com so you can see for yourself how much more they are in price... Just compare miles and cost and year of truck And you will see how way more these idiots are. Then they will see this review and email Yelp.com and say it's violation which its not, I'm just telling you the truth, and they don't want people like you to know about it, cause they figured your stupid enough not to shop around and compare and they will always approve you no matter if you have credit or no credit or and not even a drivers license which is against the law as they know it.. Even insurance companies are not supposed to give you insurance with a Mexican ID or no drivers license they don't care they just want your money what you can accident they don't know who you are because you're not supposed to be driving in the first place and you go right to jail and insurance companies know many Mexicans drive without insurance and No drivers license so that's why they take your money cause YOU don't know any better Be smart not stupid!!! These idiots want &21,000 plus tax title and plates that's another $2,000 that's $23,000 for a used truck with 121,000 miles on it when these trucks start to break down at 130,000 miles .. Rip off everybody rip off rip off rip off and they sell to Mexicans because the Mexicans don't like to go back and investigate prices or do research so some of them don't even have a drivers license and I'll still take you and not overcharge you and screw you and then they put a GPS in the unit any take the truck away from you have to do any cooking for your money so don't be stupid read more

See all

I was told by two people that the vehicle I was looking for was on the lot. They would not give me the odometer reading or price over the phone. I showed up an hour after the Manager, Wilson, phoned and verified I was coming by. He was not there. Nor was the car. They post cars that are not available to get you to come in. After waiting for my appointment with Wilson I asked a few times if this was a scam to get me down there, the individual trying to get me to look at another SUV said yes. I left and will not be returning. Two of their employees lied to me after I specifically asked if the car was there. It was on numerous car sales websites. It was a cheap trick. read more

Car Outlet - This was the car I called on. I was told it was there. Drove all the way over and it was not there. - Car Dealers Near Me - Cicero, Illinois

Since the people here insisted for me to write a yelp review ill happily do it now. I put a down payment of 2000 for a 2007 lexus with high miles. Then sat down and they read me the contract. They stated the car had an 100% inspection and they only sell cars that pass their text. The Lexus had an oil change, tune up, brakes. Two weeks later the car was not registering enough oil. So I made an appointment to have them check it out. Any car checks are $50. So I just went with someone else. They gave me a list of things the car needed and they made it clear the oil was topped off but never changed. The brakes were starting to screech and a tune up wasn't done as said in the contract. Fast forward the month I had the car I'm self employeed this is my second car in which I figured I'd use to lyft and mainly pass out business cards to get new clients. Unfortunatly as what happens with certain clients one bounced a check, I had my daughters sweet 16 and wasn't able to make my payment on time. I didnt think much of it. I knew I wouldnt take 30 days to catch up and my wallet gets stolen they freeze my account. I Had a few rides for lyft to get the 500 bonus and a few clients scheduled, so ran around replaced all my stuff and figured id knock out out and pay my high ass car note... 18 days later I walk out my house and they took the car. My truck was in the shop. I lost work for it and was told that if I wanted the car back id have to pay another 1175. I came up with the payment that weekend asked for the pick location of my car and scheduled the appointment... They wouldnt even let me know where I had to go til after my appointment time... days of ill send the info via email... Ended up unable to go. I live in the south side I had to take another day off to go pick up my car in Waukegan. I lost the left bonus, had to reschedule clients and was told that I had to reapply for financing on the car I had already been driving for a month. So I have to bother my lawyer, doctors professional busy clients to give me proof of income when they had already done that for me when I got the car initially. So what I have to tell my clients they repoed my car please give me another letter. No that not how I can present myself in my company. I'd rather take my 1175 and put it towards another car. Keep your Lexus and shove it. read more

Horrible dealer, unprofessional, unethical, total rip offs, they gave me the run around on my vehicle for months until it was too late. I wish I had spoken to more people about their thoughts on this dealer, so far everyone I know that has gotten a vehicle from this place has said they were TAKEN FOR A RIDE! read more

My name is Gabriel Nicol. I bought a vehicle for almost 50,000 FORD F150 CREW CAB 2014 WHITE, I found that vehicle didn't have jack and tools, I contact them they provide me with a wrong jack again and manager is trying to avoid any responsability. I contact them inmediatly because car was a total mess inside, so I need to beg to have a full detailing that didn't happen yet. He thinks that people can wait forever to get a jack and tools. I travel a lot and they just don't care read more

Bad sales rep no customer service they will sell you a lemon cars with a bad transmission and engine's and electrical problems save the hassle and the time and your money read more

Terrible place to buy a car. First of all they refuse to tell you the prices on the cars until you waste an hour in their offices filling out a credit app. When they finally did give me a price, it was double the retail price that is shown on Kelly's Blue Book price on their web site. I also looked at other car sites like NADA and Edmund's and all of them had the car I was interested in...retail value was around $5000. They were trying to charge me $10,500 for the car. And they actually give you these outrageous prices with a straight face. Stay away from this place at all costs, unless you want to get totally ripped off read more

Very helpful for people that are trying to build their credit. The manager is super friendly and tries to help you out on what's best for you. read more

DO NOT BUY A CAR HERE!!! got A car, when I got home the check engine light went on I would assume that this company does inspect their vehicles to insure their cars will perform well. at least make through week without having any type of issues. so I informed car outlet and they agreed to have the car repaired but as soon as I get the vehicle back the light came back on. this goes one four more times until I decided that what they sold me was A lemon. so I returned the car back to the dealer and they want me to pay for A lemon I don't own nor have nor want. DO NOT BUY A CAR HERE!!! SCAM DO NOT BUY A CAR HERE!!! most there cars have issues. manager is A joke and most of there employees are clowns DO NOT BUY A CAR HERE!!! unless you want A lemon DO NOT BUY A CAR HERE!!! you've been warned DO NOT BUY A CAR HERE!!! you will regret it. read more

This place is very unprofessional. They work better with you if you are the same race as them. Very bland and unhelpful people and it annoyed me when they spoke Spanish while talking to other co workers in front of me. Very rude dealership. Would go any where else and get better service. Terrible place to do business . read more

This place has the worst service ever. The cars are not reliable days after I purchased my Buick Enclave the check engine light came on. I didn't think to much of it at the time. But when I went into the office to make my final down payment I spoke to Christian the manager at the time and he said it was because of the gas that I was using. I then took the car to my mechanic for a oil change and found that it was missing a motor mount. Funny thing the motor mount was one of the things not covered in that scam of a warranty that they provide you with to make you think you have more than you actually do. Their number one priority is to sell the car. Juan told so many lies like I'm selling you this car for $7000 but once they tack on the finance charges and fees it's $23000 (but worth $4500 on KBB). A freaking joke right. So now that the check engine light is on and not going off I take the car back to them only to find out that christian is no longer the manager and the new manager can't assist you with something that Christian was previously working with you on. I had my husband cousin push and insist on buying a car from here after I told her not to many times so she used him as a reference because Juan said you will get a car note payment off only to find out that you will only receive $100 if you have had your car more than 90 days. I want to repay this loan as fast as I received it this was one of the worst decisions of my life. This car lot scam on the people with low credit because they know that it's hard to get you finance with a great car lot.They also tell you that if you decide to purchase other insurance instead of their insurance it will lower your rate no it stayed the same they just cut the number of months. Juan and Christian are very untruthful and deceitful. Now I find out that my auto insurance is rising because they discovered that the car has been in accidents in the past and it does not have any of its original parts which means that the safety features may not work read more
