Kevin Lowe 5 Star Salesman ! Heading off to collage in the fall so i needed a reliable car. Kevin made it so simple and very stress free, felt no pressure at all, He steered me away from a couple cars that I loved but said there were a few issues with ( at least he was honest) Showed me a Scion Tc fell in love with, needless to say I bought it, after doing some research online they were $2000 cheaper than anyone! If your looking for a good car and sales guy go see Kevin! Thanks Midwest for making it easy! You gained a customer for life!

They got back to me rather quickly, but didn't give me a ton of extra info. Also, two different people contacted me back and didn't know about the other. Odd. The car I asked about wasn't the only one like it.... blah blah blah. Feels like a major bait and switch to me. Hope I'm wrong, but I won't be bothering to find out.

Terrible experience. Car is not what it was advertised to be. Rough condition and not the accessories listed. tried to roll in some body work on a loan to complete sale but salesman wasn't interested even though we would be PAYING for the work in addition to the price asked for the car. he said the list was too long. I guess the body shop didn't need any business there. Was going to purchase and have work done elsewhere but found a fully equipped pristine car (same make and model) in St. Louis that far exceeded this car. Bought it instead.

Called and made an appointment. Called the day before to confirm appointment and requested carfax. Drove 45 minutes and was told car had been sold the day before. Certainly would have expected a call back to let me know this. Should have believed the other reviews that this is a common occurence at this dealer.

So far they qualified me for a loan and then sold the car I wanted the night before they knew I was on my way up there to get the car. Since then they have been promising me another one " any day now ". But it has been two weeks already. Now that they pulled my credit I have to wait 30 days for it to be removed from my credit report before I can go else where....

Unwilling to estimate trade-in value and difference needed on 2013 Kia Sorento BEFORE driving for 1 1/2 hours. We were willing to pay difference between NADA / Blue Book value of the vehicles. Typical Used Car Sales tactic......they insist you come to their store so they can pressure, etc. Last 3 cars we have purchased were via Internet....these guys need to get off Internet and focus on local shoppers who they can pressure.

Midwest responded promptly. They have a car I am really interested in. I asked for the previous owner contact information so I could determine if it was worth driving a couple hours to see it in person. The salesman made up several excuses and put me on hold to ask someone else. He finally came back with an explanation that it is against the law to give out personal information. Of all the dealers I have interacted with in my search, they are the only ones that seem to not want to be forth coming with the consumer. Makes me question their integrity.

Is this review helpful? Yes | No

Response from Midwest Auto Store:

Thank you Jack for your interest in our vehicle. We do apologize for the mix up in this situation. You are right, it is the law that we have to disclose the previous ownership information if we know! This is typically handy when dealing with trade ins and local units, but as we operate within a nationwide network of vehicle buying (FL,PA,TX...) we don't often know the previous ownership info as we buy them through (Toyota financial, Chrysler financial)...In this case, the salesman was not articulating the facts clearly, and we have been working to train our sales force in order to know the fac

Response from Midwest Auto Store:

Christina, thanks for your interest and we apologize that we could not help you with your car search. When pricing any vehicle, dealers consider many factors such as book values (NADA, BlackBook, KBB), but most importantly market value that determine the wholesale purchase price and retail sale price. Often market values correlate with book values, but in some cases they don't. I suggest that you search the market with 100-200 miles and see for yourself what values demanded for such units. We will be glad to answer any further questions that you may have and wish you the best of luck on your c

Susan, we truly apologize for the situation. We understand your frustration completely. We inspect and service every unit, and may be this unit was missed or sat on the lot and developed an issue, but regardless our sales person should have driven the vehicle and ensured in proper condition prior to your drive/appointement. It is our policy to be 100% transparent with all our customers and apologize again for dropping the ball and rest assured that we are working very hard to train and manage all our staff to avoid such a situation

Response from Midwest Auto Store:

Jesse, we truly apologize that you did not have the best of experience. Our pricing is very dynamic based on reconditioning and market pricing and usually our units are priced down as they age, but rarely we price up some unit based on market and additional reconditioning that we may not have anticipated. We provide our customers a free access to carfax so that you can research vehicle history and we inspect units to ensure that no major issues gone undiscovered. In this situation, you're right as the unit has water in trunk and we found that draining plugs coming from roof channels are blocke

Response from Midwest Auto Store:

Jeff, we truly apologize for your experience, it is totally unacceptable. In this situation, your initial lead went to Skip. Skip initially responded but there were future correspondence that took place after Skip left us. Our ssytem missed to forward that further correspondence to another sales person and we caught it along with 4 other leads almost 3 weeks later. It is certainly not the way we do business and ask that you give us another change to deliver the true Midwest Auto Store experience.

Discussed a specific car with them for 3 weeks so they knew which car I was interested in. When the snow finally stopped I took off early to go there and test drive the car. They told me I could sit in it but not drive it. Not even drive it in the lot, it wasn't running good. They were putting it in their shop (located on the same lot) that afternoon. They had several weeks to look at it and also should have informed me via phone or email to not waste my time.

Shane thanks for your interest in our inventory and we regret that you have not had a good experience. I personally looked in this situation and found out that we had to quarantine the unit due to the brake locking up. The unit was inspected and service and functioned fine until the day before your visit, the issue was reported. We truly apologize for the inconvenience, but we wanted to maintain our customer safety as a top priority. If I can do anything to help, please feel free to contact me personally (MJ) and would love the opportunity to help.

Dear William, thanks for your interest in our inventory and we regret that you did not have the best experience. We work very hard to find and service quality vehicles that we offer to our customers at best prices. It is our practices that we don’t build additional dollars into the price so that we negotiate it down to the bottom line; instead, we offer you our bottom line from the start. We invite to shop around and compare the competitor’s pricing and related book values. We value your input and hope that we can help you with your shopping needs
