Why would someone who lives over 100 miles away leave a review for Monticello Motors? Here's my…read morestory. After Thanksgiving break, on their way back to college from Chicago to Columbus, my daughters were involved in a highway accident that left the car undrivable. (They were unhurt.) The vehicle was towed away and eventually made it to Monticello Motors for a repair estimate. From Chicago, I called and spoke to Grant. I told him my car was going to be towed to his shop and before I identified myself he rattled off all of the details from a message he must have just received from the insurer. Before I had to follow up, he called me, told me the cost and predicted, based on experience, that the insurer would likely consider the car a total loss. He was so kind about it. I'd never been through something like this and he explained to me exactly how the process plays out and what to expect. He told me he'd ship me the license plates (I hadn't even thought of that) and anything else in the car and said the cost of shipping wasn't much and he'd do it for free. I offered to pay and he refused to accept payment. He also told me to be sure to call him once I had settled on an amount for the car with the insurer - that he wouldn't release the car to them without my approval. He owed me nothing at all. Let's face it, the insurance company was the one paying him, yet he treated me like a longtime customer. Though he didn't say it outright, thanks to his explanation about the process I realized that the amount the insurance company offered me is a negotiable amount and I ended up negotiating and receiving over $800 more than the original offer. If you live near Monticello I think you'll be thrilled with the level of service you'll receive.

We've put off fixing all the big and little dings our car has gotten over the years from the valets…read morewho park our car in our condo complex in the city. Nothing is worse for your car than having Chicago valets park your car daily, and parking your car daily on narrow Chicago streets. Finally, we couldn't put it off any longer because our car was now 6 years old, and there were two gouges so deep, they were starting to rust. We only have one city car so we stressed to the owner of Monticello Motors how we were on a tight schedule and needed the car back in a couple of days. He offered to work on the car over the holiday weekend just so we would have it back that Sunday night. We were wary of what the price would be since there was also a huge dent where the valet had wrapped the backside of the car into a cement mullion, and we didn't want to replace the two panels affected. The owner assured us he would do his best to bang out the dent, buff and paint it where it would be noticeable on close inspection but a huge improvement over what it looked like now. He would also take care of the two, deep long gouges and offered to fill-in all the little chips of paint missing on the hood from where tiny rocks hit it on the interstate. All this, and he was only going to charge us $600.00. It seemed too good to be true, but true to his word, he did everything he said he would do, better than we thought possible, over the holiday weekend and in time for us to go home on Sunday night all for $600.00. Wow! Everyone we met at Monticello Motors was very nice, but we especially enjoyed talking to the owner who is himself a transplant from Chicago and worked for years at the dealership where we purchased our car. That gave us extra confidence he knew what he was doing and a professional to boot. I can't believe we can get this kind of service in Monticello for such a steal.
