Totally would steer clear of this dealer. Drove and hour to realize when we got to the lot that the pictures purposely omitted serious interior and external body damage to vehicle we had called about . It was sad to see someone in today's environment think they could bait and switch consumers ... shame on them DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME HERE read more

These people lie! And they turn it around and call you the liar! They sell crap cars and should not be in business

Terrible service, sales "executive" was a dumbass. Not surprised my car that was working perfectly fine has had more than 5/10 issues popup in the few days after purchasing. Was lied to and was disrespected, haven't received my title after a month of buying the vehicle. Please don't give your hard earned money to absolute scum like these people! read more

Our family has given this place a lot of business mainly through my husband in the past. But as soon as my adult daughter goes to buy a car, which they swayed her towards the one she got. They gave a 14 day warranty that they refused to honor. They left a part off the car and forgot til she was home in Cudahy when they mentioned it. Everything happened within warranty. Check engine light came on second day. They say they do nothing for free. They knew something was wrong and leaving the part out could've caused more damage. Her car should be replaced or fixed. 3,000 down the drain. It was usable approx 2 days. read more

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS DEALER!!! I purchased a 2008 Lincoln Mark LT online. I trusted Alex to be honest about issued, given its age. He stated, "There's nothing wrong it! It had a tire light on, but I put air in it, and it went off. I drove my children in it for a few days. It's a good truck." I purchased the truck on 4/26/2019. The truck was delivered a week later and it came with an ABS light on. Also, it has a manifold exhaust leak which makes the truck make a ticking sound (so he had to have known). The wheel hub was bad, the brakes were rusty, the floor boards had rust holes 5 inches in diameter, the door panels are rusted out, the bed is rusted out underneath, the frame has frame rot and cracks, and the tires are dry rotted. Alex did send out two exhaust manifolds three weeks after delivery and agreed to pay back $1,000 (which he never did). THEN CAME THE BIG ISSUE: THE TITLE. Week after week, I was given an excuse. The girls at the dealership lied and said he was in meetings and not in. I caught them lying twice when I called back from a different number and Alex answered the phone. He gave me and my credit union excuse after excuse for not having the title. Finally, I filed complaints with the Attorney General, Secretary of State, and Secretary of State Police. I also retained two law firms. After a visit from the police, two citations and fines, the title was delivered. It took them THREE MONTHS to get the title to me! And then I found out Alex isn't even the owner. The owner's name is Julia Ramey!!! They messed with the right guy this time, though. I will probably be following this up with a civil suit in the 19th District Court for the acts of fraud committed throughout this process. Thank God I have texts and emails of everything!

Ramey Auto Sales - Rust that they didn't disclose. - Car Dealers Near Me - Zion, Illinois

See all

Warning! I Bought a Van from Ramey's on a Tuesday October 13 2015. Four days later (October 17 2015) i was forced off the road on my way to work due to the car overheating. I drove into the closest repair place to work. I dropped it off and got to work late. But the Mechanic their told me that it looked like someone tried to fix it but did a bad job or did it wrong and it probably needed a new thermostat (which I couldn't afford after buying the car) they also said the oil pressure comes down and he added antifreeze. The guy recommended I get the thermostat fixed. I asked him if he thought the lack of antifreeze could've hurt anything, he said, it could, but still recommended the thermostat. By this time it was late and Ramey's was closed and when I drove home, it seemed to run better a first. But then On the way home the engine stalled and I couldn't get it to start up again. I had to get it towed to my house. So in the morning (October 18 2015) I called Ramey's and said it might need a new thermostat and they immediately said I should have called them right away which didn't make any sense to me. It took four days for them to get the Van towed to their mechanic. I called the mechanics number directly and he told me it was unfixable and that Ramey's told him that I said it was leaking antifreeze. I told him that doesn't make any sense that the repair guy told me it might be the Thermostat or the Oil pressure. I might have told them I added antifreeze but I didn't say it was leaking and neither did the mechanic I drove it to. The guy said the owners of the place told him that. And that's what's wrong with the car it was leaking antifreeze. I immediately called Rameys and asked them why they said I said the antifreeze was leaking and they denied it and said they weren't responsible for their own cars. So I'm writing this as a warning to other people not to trust this business. read more

Be careful. I drove 4 hours away to look at one of their trucks I found online. It looked great from the pictures. I emailed asking if it had any rust, they said just on the gas lid and they fix it, so I think "no big deal, I can handle that". I talk to them on the phone and they again play up how rust free and clean it is unlike a lot of trucks of this make/year. So I tell them I'm going to make the trip on Saturday to come see it and if it checks out will probably buy. I get there and it looks nothing like the pictures. It's not completely rusted out but it has significant rust on the rail gate, rear fenders, both doors and door jams. And just generally wasn't in that great of shape. Probably slightly below average for the make/year when they played it up as so much above. When I call them out of the rust they say "well that's just surface rust no big deal". I shake my head in disgust and leave and drive my family and myself 4 hours back home. When I specifically ask twice about rust and you know I'm coming from 4 hours away, couldn't you shoot me strait? They wasted my family's entire Saturday. A complete lack of respect for others. This is the crap that gives used car salesmen a bad rap. But I suppose it was a good life lesson. Gotta be careful with sleezy used car dealers. read more

wow should have read reviews before sounds like multiple people were looking at the same 3500 chevy was advertised as no rust I drove 2 hours and found rust on the entire truck I could see the street from the inside of the truck bed waste of time read more

I purchased a car from Ramey's and would encourage others not to bother even looking there. I am not the only one that has had problems with them - but their story is not mine to tell. I purchased a car and yes it was a used car. However, I specifically asked if it would pass emissions - well 8 days later the check engine light was on and blinking (check the Internet - this is not a good sign). So I took the car to an excellent mechanic within a 2 minute drive from my home. He found oil all over every thing - this was not a new problem. This was repaired to the tune of 454.00 - but that is not all. There are more repairs to come because there is still a check engine light, and other noises coming. In speaking with Ms. Julia Ramey her only concern was that I did not immediately call and instead took it to a respectable mechanic - ummmm why would I trust your mechanic after you just sold me a lemon. So yes - it was 3 weeks later that I was able to get there (because the car was in the shop, not driveable, we work and had to juggle cars - but hey ...). She said since SHE did not know the mechanic (who has an excellent reputation in Kenosha) how could she believe what he had done. Fine - I am stuck. But I am here to warn others - this is not the first car they have sold that has gone on to require significant repair after a short time and the company does not care. This is the type of dealer that gives others a bad name. read more

This would be a no star.. All about mistakes, made the mistake of trusting their word, made the mistake of over looking theses reviews . We bought a car and said we would give them 1,500 and we would fix the muffler & brakes or the 19,795 if they fix it . Well they didn't touch the front brakes and they just did a quick fix to make it look like it was fixed . The weather was really bad so the car was only driven about 3 miles up the road and then sat in the drive way until we got the plates and tidal transfer. My sons car that doesn't know anything about cars told us the that is was really hard to stop the car, so we brought to the shop and found out the brakes in the front were never touched . So we fixed it , when talking to a guy at this place in "quote" a car can drive two miles up the road and break down and its no longer his problem .He tried to tell us we said the back brakes , that was a out right lie . Looking at theses other reviews looks like it not the first time this place was dishonest So , you may want to not make the same mistake we did and stay clear of theses people . This story is a lot longer could go on and on but I wont for now... read more

I purchased a vehicle from these people , and did not even get the vehicle home and the computer hook up at a dealer says that the car is misfireing on 3 out of 8 cylinders and had some badly back yard rigged vacuum lines and the exhaust pipes coming off the motor are crushed . The vehicle does not even provide enough air to cool off the catalytic convertor an is a danger on the road of stopping at any time or catching fire. I was there with my 12 yr old son when I bought the vehicle an they knew that I would be driving the vehicle with him in it the lied and said all was ok with it . They also went out of the way to disconnect and reconnect the battery to reset and hide the computer error messages an then tell me I am lying when I mentioned what the manufactures dealer found on the computer an the fact that the car did not even make it home. Avoid this company at all costs , they have no care for any customer or family , all they care for is taking your money an endangering everyone else on the road not only my family. I also put a call in to the mayor of zion il in regards to this an am awaiting his call back . I will also be contacting the better business bureau in the morning and filing a complaint. I read that they have also done this to a disabled veteran as well, They told me the same thing as well , oh we did a oil change and tune up an everything is perfect on this car. Also stating that the factory represented dealer is lying about the computer read out. I myself am disabled an on a fixed income as well, save your money and steer clear of this place at all costs read more
