Oak Lawn Toyota is fantastic!

2020 Corolla
Bob's "cut to the chase" approach made the 2020 Corolla car buying experience nice and easy. The car looked just as good in person as it did on the Oak Lawn Toyota web site. This is my sixth Toyota purchased from Oak Lawn and I highly recommend this dealership. When you walk around inside the building, you'll find a wall of photos loaded with current employees having more than 20, 30, and even 40 years of service. You know you're receiving true dedication and passion for the work they're doing for you. I will keep returning to Oak Lawn Toyota for my new vehicle purchases and service. Thanks guys. Keep up the great work.

Purchase 2019 Highlander
We just purchased a 2019 Highland and couldn't be happier. The vehicle has so many new safety features. It rides smoother than our Avalon (and we loved the Avalon). We have worked with Bob Spee for many years... His commitment to his customers has never changed ! Would recommend Oak Lawn Toyota and Bob Spee to anyone looking for a new car !!!

undecided
We were looking for a car for our son, my husband and I didn't agree on which car to get. I wanted the camry, he wanted the corolla. He thought the camry was too expensive and I didn't like the size or body style of the corolla. Bob Spee and Mark helped us purchase a camry that I liked with a price that my husband was happy with. Our son loves the car and so does my husband. No the disagreement is who gets to drive the car.

Excellent Experience
Bob Spee was an exceptional sales consultant. He is honest, goes out of his way to give you all the details, and is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. definitely not the pushy salesman type. I purchased my 2016 Tacoma on-line by sending Mr. Spee an email. He had the best and most reviews on the company website. The other people I spoke with on the phone were very helpful as well. The staff, including Bob Spee, went beyond the typical vehicle buying experience to ensure my satisfaction. And I certainly am. Happy with the staff, Mr. Spee, and my vehicle.

Bob Spee and Frank Alessi are the BEST
I could not be more pleased with the amazing support and pleasant purchasing experience that I had with Oak Lawn Toyota. Great price, no haggling, and superior advice. I purchased a 2019 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid in May 2019 and I am thrilled. Bob Spee and Frank Alessi are the best! Above and beyond service, advice, and HONESTY! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS DEALERSHIP ABOVE OTHERS IN THE REGION! I shopped around and compared. Don't go anywhere else!

Great service Great people #1 AAAAA++
Brought my 2015 4Runner in for service Friday, as I pulled in met the new service manager Juan Vazquez young man that has much knowledge very personable, nice to see a young man that knows how to treat longtime customers, then into service office where Frank Nash was the service writer another asset to Oaklawn toyotas team of professionals, then noticed all the young technicians, some new faces after talking to them about my vehicle they definitely have the advanced knowledge needed in the era of computer controlled vehicle problems! My vehicle was serviced, on time and completed expeditiously, again in the competitive world of vehicle service they stand above the crowd. If you proper, honest service Oaklawn Toyota proves why they are still around and ready to sell and after the sale take care of your vehicle, the best! Also talked to my salesman Bob Spee and Mark Girlich another part if the team who we will be dealing with soon to buy another new long lasting Toyota!

Camry Hybrid
I bought a new Camry Hybrid a few weeks ago. I have loved the car! I enjoyed the process of working with Ronnie, Mark, Bob, and Jason. They listened to what I was looking for, found it, and offered a great price. They treated me like a friend. It was a better experience than what any local dealership could do, so we went out of state to Oak Lawn Toyota. I would happily do business with them again. Thank you!

Best experience I've had at a Car dealership.
I needed a car right away. Bob Spee worked with me most of the day to make it happen. Went out of his way to get me the car I wanted. Marty Maggio in finance explained everything and made it easy to understand. Bob was so helpful, listened to what I wanted and made it easy to leave with the perfect car for me. Thank you so much Oak Lawn Toyota.

Great and professional dealership
Bob Spee is the primary reason I have dealt with Oak Lawn Toyota for 30 years. I doubt that I would go there unless he was there.Jack Davenport

Great Experience,, Great auto 2018 CAMRY SE
I was greeted by the salesman as if he knew me for years. We talked about my jobs, family and friends we bought knew.. He had a lot of patience as I test drove four vehicles..Felt comfortable and was explained in detail about the vehicles. Was also impressed with Finance, was explained in detail about the extended warranties and finance options. All done in a timely manner.. This is the 3rd auto that I have purchased from Oaklawn Toyota. And I have to mention the Service Dept, especially John McShane who is courteous,knowledgeable and accomadating.

Bob Spee
My husband and I have been dealing with Bob Spee since 1995. Bob is such an amazing and humble person. He will always go above and beyond to help you in purchasing the car that is right for you. Thank you so much Bob for always being there for Ron and I. Continue being that amazing salesman and person that you are .
Dec 17, 2016
Always great
Bob Spee is the best. I have know Bob for years. Bought cars from him in the past. Looking forward to getting my new 4 runner at the end of December 2016. He found the perfect one in the color with all the options I wanted. Makes car buying easy and painless. Bob goes out of his way to make your car buying experience a pleasure. I would recommend him and Oak Lawn Toyota to anyone.

Car buying made easy
I really got a bargain, on my 2015 corolla, with only 6,700 miles on it, I couldn't be happier with the car. And special thanks to Bob, for picking out my corolla, just what I was looking for, all the options, and color I wanted.

Loyalty & Honesty
I have bought and had my vehicles serviced at Oak Lawn Toyota since 1993. Whether purchasing or receiving maintenance on my vehicles at Oak Lawn Toyota. They are fair with pricing, but more important for me they could be trusted with their work in what they do and their honest about. They truly care for their customer. Since 1993 after my 1st purchase of a 1993 Camry. I've never shopped at any other dealer. Oak Lawn Toyota is the real deal. I've never left the parking lot second guessing myself or thinking that I just got ripped off. I highly recommend this dealership. Give them a try. I believe you will be satisfied in whatever they do for you.

Jul 15, 2016
Very professional.
Very fair prices and they do not try to sell you more than you need. They do not tell you 10 minutes when it takes longer. Very honest and professional . I do not take my cars anywhere else.
Jun 15, 2016
Friendly people, great service
I have bought all of my cars from here, and return for service here even though I live 45 minutes away. So nice to be taken care of by people you trust.

we are northsiders
As the title says, we travelled from the lincolnwood area and bypassed quite a few dealerships to buy our car here. I am glad we did. All steps of the experience here were excellent. Everyone has a great attitude and while life happens and hicvups do occurr, they are quite upfront about any issues that do arise. The staff always makes time to answer questions or assist in any way they can.

Underbody evaluation and repair
John McShane took the time to explain and show me the damage from my son reversing over some landscaping rocks bear the side of the street. Got the job done as soon as possible and on budget. Always trust oak lawn Toyota.
Jan 26, 2016
Exceeded My Expectation
The morning before going to Oak Lawn Toyota I was really nervous because I am a woman who knows very little about cars and because I'd never financed a car. But my salesman Bob Spee was very professional and honest with me. I ended up leaving the dealership with an affordable 2006 Toyota, which exceeded my expectation. If you need a car and want trustworthy service, please go to Oak Lawn Toyota!
Jan 02, 2016
Great People
I have been a customer for several years. Bob Spee is a great salesman. Answers any questions. Helpful and fair. John McShane in service is great. But I also can say that all of the people in service are terrific.
Dec 17, 2015
Obviously recommendable
We have never had anything but good experiences at this dealership - sales, service, parts (once in a while) - all professional, knowledgeable, courteous, and when they say 'you'll have the car in two hours' that is what we can count on. We are a Toyota Family and have been for a long time, and Oak Lawn has kept us in that club.
Dec 04, 2015
Knowledgeable & understanding customer's needs.
BOB SPEE. Bob has taken care of us with all the Toyota products we have purchased from Oak Lawn Toyota. He is very thoughtful and cares about the customer and I may add: his knowledge about cars are excellent. His caring is not just to sell an automobile, but he gets involved in our needs and what we look for in a new car. Both Fred and I find Bob Spee a highly-respected person and that he knows the auto mobile business and understand customer's needs. Thank you, Bob Spee, for helping us. I may add...I love me new Toyota Highlander! Elsa Bruining
Dec 04, 2015
awesome car buying experience !
I would recommend Oak Lawn toyota to anyone looking to buy a car. Everyone is so friendly and knowledgable but not pushy. Bob Spee was extremely helpful in our search for a used car. He found us exactly what we wanted. Rob Halderson in accessories was wonderful as well. We have been dealing with this dealership for many years and John McShane in service is always a pleasure to work with. We had a wonderful overall experience buying our new van.
Dec 03, 2015
Awesome dealer!
We had a wonderful experience at Oak Lawn Toyota and are happy to recommend it to anyone interested in buying a car or anyone wanting good service.

"Excellent Customer Service"
I purchased my first car from Oak lawn Toyota 16 years ago and I returned to receive the same Great Service I received then. Bob Spee is an awesome sales men he showed so much compassion and patience in serving me.
Nov 17, 2015
Best dealership in Chicagoland
Oak Lawn Toyota is a family. The employees as well as the customers are included in this family. You've heard the saying, "never do business with family", that just doesn't hold true here as all people are treated like family. I have never met a dealership who cared so much about their customers. I live over an hour away but would not go anywhere else. Ronnie Colosimo has truly created a business which cares for all. Bob Spee is absolutely incredible. You could not meet a nicer person. I cannot say enough about this place. They truly are the best of the best.
Sep 25, 2015
Excellent Service!
I received excellent advice on how to proceed with getting repairs made in terms of a new part, a loaner car while the work was in progress. and a sense of friendly concern about making it all turn out right.
Sep 22, 2015
Awesome place - Oak Lawn Toyota!
We have never owned a Toyota before, but thought we would try something different this time. A friend recommended Oak Lawn Toyota and said that Bob Spee was a 'gem', which we found out first hand is totally the truth! Bob was amazing to work with, as was everyone else at OLT! Bob made the car buying experience so painless because he was patient and willing to find us exactly the car that fit our needs! We absolutely LOVE our new Highlander and will definitely be back for our next car! Thanks OLT!

Honest solid service

Trusted Advisor
George Achter in Service recommended ways to make repairs while saving hundreds of dollars. He kept my cost down by prioritizing repairs and recommending other options that saved money. I have a 2004 Camry with 155,000 miles that I bought new from Bob Spee, a great sales person. Oak Lawn Toyota beats Orland Toyota in sales and service ... hands down.
Jul 31, 2015
Can't beat Oak Lawn Toyota
I have been going to Oak Lawn Toyota since 1993. I haven't been to any other Toyota dealer for sales or service. You get the red carpet treatment from everyone. They explain everything to you they are fair with pricing and they explain everything to you with servicing a vehicle. So believe me folks they do not forget their customers. They are a loyal dealership in my eyes. So thank you again Oak Lawn Toyota and we will be seeing you soon. Continue your hard work because it pays off.
May 27, 2015
friendly, no pressure.
My wife and I visited your dealership on May 23.We weren't sure whether we were going to purchase a vehicle or not.We were intent on dealing with Jessica Biel, but instead were introduced to Bob Spee.Bob made us feel at ease.We took a test drive, then had our questions answered.There was no hard sell, no pressure to buy. It was a nice relaxing feeling.We decided on purchasing a new RAV 4, and we are both very happy with our decision.Bob Spee is very knowledgeable, and he is driven to satisfy the customer.Our experience at Oak Lawn Toyota was long, but worth the wait.We would definitely recommend Oak Lawn Toyota again. THANKS. Dan & Arhlene O'Hara
May 12, 2015
Superior
I was a bit unsure of the exact model of Toyota I wanted, but my previous one served me well. I am a widow and this was actually the first car purchase I did on my own. Bob Spee was very patient with me and took me out to test drive several models. While doing so, he explained all the benefits of each one. He was so kind. There was absolutely no pressure. I narrowed it down to the Camry XLE, it drives like a dream and is so pretty. It was a pleasure talking to the owner, Ron Colosimo as well. I would recommend this dealership to everyone! THANK YOU for making my buying experience a great one! God Bless you all!!

All around great experience

Oaklawn Toyota #1 4Runner trail great experience
My family and I have purchased vehicles from Oaklawn Toyota before but this experience was even better (Just when you think things cannot be better), I took my 2013 Toyota Venza in for an oil change, and noticed service manager Al Leon in the showroom, we talked about Toyotas and reliability, then i asked Al about the new 4runner he said "Like all Toyotas its a great vehicle," Now if the serivice manager who is honest (the service departemnt never plays the game selling you things you dont need), next I talked To Mark Girlich sales manager as we talk when I come in for service and told him i would like to eventually buy a TRD pro Toyota 4Runner maybe in Sept when I retire as a retirement gift to myself. Mark asked If I have looked into the Toyota 4runner Trail edition, i told him no, thenMark expalined all the attributes of this vehicle, have to admit my interest was peaked. He did not try any hard sell nonsense, but told me they would be getting 1 in but he was not sure when, so I was not ready to purchase at this time. They I researched the Trail, all i can say is awesome vehicle, next I was driving down 95th street past Oaklawn toyota and looked casually at the new car lot, there was a Attitude Black 4 runner sitting there, so I parked and decided "just to take a look" then looking it was the Trail edition, (felt like a kid looking at this awesome truck), so i said why not? Walked inside and spoke to salesman Bob Spee and told him I would like a test drive, he said ok finished with another customer and we went for a ride, I was to say the at least I was really impressed! Bob explained all the features (there are many), we appraised my Venza no pressure got a price and left! Went home called my wife she said "you sound like you really like it get it" so I called Bob and asked him to add running boards,he said sure will have it done early next day, and would hold it with no deposit. Came in the next day and there it was all washed and full tank of fuel, turned around inside the service Department what did I see? My old 1996 4runner in for service that I traded for the Venza still running, but needing some reapair by the experts at Oaklawn Toyota, turned my head walking toward showroom there was service manager Al Leon with a big smile, he knew I was going to buy that new 4Runner, and he knows the only place I will got for service is the best dealer with the best service department oaklawn Toyota. Then I sat down with Mike Maggio finance manager, had a great conversation the deal from Bob Spee was exactly on the money no extras, bought the 8 year 125,000 genuine Toyota platinum warranty (its a Toyota may never need it, but thought with all the computer stuff just in case), Bottom line not going to tell you the deal but it was unbeatable, my first 1996 4runner i had for 17 years now this 1 should be at least 20 years. If you want reliability check the ratings you will buy Toyota, look at comparable vehicles my new 4runner had a MSRP of $40,995 try to get all it has on say a Chevy Tahoe would cost $20,000 more and resale on Toyotas is high, but then again its hard to find a good used Toyota as family passes them down to other family members as the miles and reliability move forward! Thnak You Mark,Bob,Mike and BTW the owner Ronnie Colosimo was in the showroom shaking my hand for buying this awesome vehicle thanking me! 1 promise you will NEVER baet the price,and the service all around fantastic dealer!!

Had a great experience buying my new Toyota
Mr. Spee was very easy to work with and made what usually is a stressful experience (purchasing a new car) a pleasurable one. Bob's knowledge of cars and his ability to recall various options and features made this a great time. I would certainly recommend him to all my friends.

2014 RAV 4
My wife and I had a great experience at Toyota of Highland. We went to a couple different dealerships and this one was by far the friendliest. We did not have to haggle prices with them we went to a few places and asked for their best price and they by far gave us the best quote! Rob and Bob were very helpful and really seemed to care about us and not just making the sale. We are confident that if anything ever goes wrong they will help us out however they can. We love our car and recommend them to family and friends! Jason in finance was also very easy to work with and made the process go smoothly.

Friendly,honest, and very willing to please
I have purchased four new cars and one used car from Oak Lawn Toyota over the years. I've always felt I received the best deal from Bob Spee, and he helps you even after the sale. John McShane in service has always taken great care of my vehicles, and I trust him completely. The salesmen there all know me, and talk to me when I'm in for service.

1St Time Vist--Not The Last
On 7/28 at the recommendation of our Cousin Harry, we went to check out a car at Oak Lawn Toyota and speak to the sakes rep Bob Spee. The experience was GREAT from start to finish when we pulled away in our Rav4. Everyone we had contact with at the dealership was great but Bob Spee, the Sales Rep was fantastic. It was the 1st time we met him yet he made us feel so comfortable and relaxed we knew his objective was to find the right car for us...not just "sell us a car". We are now the 6th referral from our cousin that has gone to Oak Lawn Toyota, dealt with Bob Spee and left happy. This is the 6th vehicle we have purchased since we have been married but it has been 100% the BEST buying experience, again, from start to finish. So if you need a new car, used car or want to lease a car...head to Oak Lawn Toyota and ask for Bob Spee...you WILL NOT be disappointed!!!!
May 11, 2014
Great dealership
My second purchase from Bob Spee was like the first purchase from him 11 years ago - informative and detailed and he directed me to the car with the exact features that I was looking for. Dave Capelle also was very efficient as we went through the paperwork in no time at all. Nice to come to a dealership that has gained my trust and confidence!

I purchased a Corolla back in 2001 from Oak Lawn but my experience on 12/26/13 was the best ever!! Bob Spee was absolutely wonderful. I started my process online with an application. Bob and I spoke on the phone and he called me back once I was approved. All I can say is if any one wants to experience true customer service please go see Bob. He truly does love what he does and will take his time to share his knowledge. Bob was genuinely interested in providing me and my family with an experience of a lifetime and boy did he! Bob made my experience a smooth one. He wanted me to know that any need I have come to him first. Then he took me to Dave - once again another great experience! Bob even set up my iPhone as he showed me some of the great features to my new car. The very next day I got a call from Bob checking to see how we were enjoying our new car. OMG! This dealership really cares about their customers. Thank you Bob Spee and the entire Oak Lawn Toyota team!!

I have purchased cars from Oak Lawn Toyota and have had excellent service from the sales department and especially from the service department.

We purchased a new car yesterday with Bob's assistance. He was outstanding. The experience was a pleasure from beginning to end. Bob helped us decide between 2 Toyota Avalon models. His observations about the cars were spot on. He listened to what we wanted and was upfront and honest on everything. Bob was also very helpful in showing us all of the features of the new car, even pairing my cell phone with the car's communication system. I am so glad we went to Oak Lawn.

All I have to say is that this experience was beyond incredible. Bob was extremely honest, caring, and full of information. I was completely over my head as my trade in had no equity and I still owed money it. Bob made it so much easier to take in assuring me I was going home with a safe and reliable car I would be able to have for a lifetime. Thanks again Bob.

I have been buying Toyota Camrys from Oak Lawn Toyota since 1995. I just bought #8, a 2013 Camry, from Bob Spee - I have bought all my Camrys from Bob. Bob is an exceptional salesman and goes that "extra mile" for you as a customer. This is the best dealership to visit as everyone working there is friendly, helpful and go out of their way to help you out. I have never had a bad experience there and never left frustrated, angry or unhappy. They really know how to treat people the right way - that's why I keep going back!

My Dodge Caliber wasn't cutting it any more so I...
My Dodge Caliber wasn't cutting it any more so I decided to check out the car I had previously owned.....the Rav4. We unknowingly arrived at the dealership just before closing time and were immediately greeted by Bob Spee. After a sit down in his office it was out to lot where he showed us nearly every Rav4 they had and explained in detail the differences in each one. It wasn't long before we found the one we wanted and took it for a test drive. After some none pressure haggling we decided to purchase at a price we liked. Bob was incredibly friendly and informative throughout the whole process. He took the time to make sure we were getting the exact car we wanted. Which, on a Friday, after closing time says a lot about his professionalism and character. After a week of owning the Rav4 I am more than happy with the purchase and extremely thankful that we had the fortune of having Bob Spee as a sales associate. Anyone in the market for a new.........go to Oak Lawn Toyota and ask for Bob. You won't be disappointed!!!!!!!

Oak Lawn Toyota is fabulous! As I shopped for a new car, I visited a lot of dealerships for over two months. Oak Lawn Toyota had the best employees - and the best product! - of any place I visited. Jason Stoit was my salesman, and he was so kind, knowledgeable, and honest. The first time I went to the dealership, he spent about three hours with me as I test drove cars. He patiently explained the features of the cars, and he gave me printouts of the specifications and prices for all the cars I was interested in (something no other dealer I visited did!). After two more visits back to Oak Lawn Toyota, I bought a 2013 Camry. Before I left with my new car, Jason spent so much time showing me how everything works. I highly recommend Jason. He's a great guy, and he made buying a car a fun experience! I was also impressed by the kindness and honesty of everyone else I met at Oak Lawn Toyota, including Bob Spee (salesman), new car manager Mark Girlich, and finance manager Dave Capelle. Dave made the whole finance process so easy and efficient. This is a small, family-owned business, and you can tell. Everyone there seems to love what they do, and they care about making the customers happy.

I highly recommend Oak Lawn Toyota because of its knowledgeable and friendly staff, particularly Bob Spee. Customer satisfaction is their number one priority. I live in downtown Chicago and travel to Oak Lawn because of the rock-star like treatment I receive there. I've never had a bad experience at Oak Lawn Toyota, and I can't see myself dealing with any other dealership. Thank you all for what you do for me, Toyota.

Reason I purchased from Oak Lawn was the friendly...
Reason I purchased from Oak Lawn was the friendly atmosphere when I walked into the dealership and met Bob Spee. He was not pushy, and he answered all my questiions in regards to what vehicle I wanted to purchase. He was professional in sitting down, and working out a deal that was fair to both of us, and walked me through the process of locating the 2013 Venza that I requested. He had great follow up skills in getting back to me to work out the final purchase. I have purchased 2 Lexus's, and 2 Toyota's from Orland in the past, but Bob Spee is the best salesman I have encountered in my previous purchases of the Toyota brand. He took the most time of any salesman in explaining the operation of the new car, and walked me through some of the fine workings of the Venza. Great service on the sales end, and I hope the service team can match Bob's efforts! Michael and Susan Abbatemarco Tinley Park, IL.

This is my 8th Toyota purchased from Oak Lawn Toyota. That should say something in itself. I feel comfortable there and have had the same wonderful Salesman for all these years. Bob Spee - he is a great salesman and always gets me a good car and meets my car needs and expectations. I love Oak Lawn Toyota and recommend them to anyone looking for good service and the best cars going - TOYOTA'S. All the people are friendly that I've met. Also the Finance Department deserves kudos too. Marty Maggio was also great! These are the two people I presently dealt with in purchasing my new car! Thanks!

My husband and I recently purchased a 2012 Highlander Limited from Oak Lawn Toyota. This is the second car we have purchased from them, the first being a 2007 Avalon. Bob Spee was our salesman both times and is an outstanding person. He is very upfront and honest. He takes time to explain all about the vehicle you are buying and makes the experience super smooth. He patiently answered all my questions. There is no pressure to make a quick decision. We feel we received a great price on the Highlander and John gave us a fair trade-in value on the Avalon. Dave in the finance dept. was also very helpful in explaining all the financial details and extended warranties so we could make informed decisions. Having been a previous customer, I had my 2007 Avalon serviced exclusively at Oak Lawn Toyota. Their service dept. is wonderful-I never had any issues. They are professional, honest, and give great customer service. I plan to continue with their services on my Highlander. I am absolutely delighted with my new Highlander-it fits my current lifesyle perfectly. Thank you Bob for all your patience and help--when it's time we'll be back for the next car-I'm a customer for life!

From start to finish our experience with Oak Lawn Toyota...
From start to finish our experience with Oak Lawn Toyota was outstanding. This was our 4th car purchased through this dealer and I know we will continue this in the future. The cars we have purchased are great and in the one instance where a non-mechanical part of the car (DVD player) did not work correctly when we got home, it was fixed at no cost immediately. The sales people listen to what you tell them and then help you to get the best product for your budget. I would recommend that everyone buys a Toyota and I would recommend you purchase it from Oak Lawn Toyota.

I can’t express enough how time consuming looking to find a car is. Toyota Oak Lawn gave me the time, patience and guidance to achieve this overwhelming adventure. Walking in the door with no knowledge which direction financially and car choice I wanted, but knew enough that Toyota was the best car to buy after researching. The salesman Mike Henry immediately had me looking and driving different vehicles to see what I liked. Sales manager Mark Girlich ran my information giving options what each vehicle costs, financing and extra options available. Then when my decision was made finance manager Marty Maggio explained every piece of paperwork along with the different extra vehicle service agreements available. My total experience was walking out feeling like I would never go anywhere else but Toyota Oak Lawn to buy a vehicle. There was never any pressure with any of these wonderful men, totally felt comfortable, Toyota should be very proud of their great staff!

2020 Corolla
Bob's "cut to the chase" approach made the 2020 Corolla car buying experience nice and easy. The car looked just as good in person as it did on the Oak Lawn Toyota web site. This is my sixth Toyota purchased from Oak Lawn and I highly recommend this dealership. When you walk around inside the building, you'll find a wall of photos loaded with current employees having more than 20, 30, and even 40 years of service. You know you're receiving true dedication and passion for the work they're doing for you. I will keep returning to Oak Lawn Toyota for my new vehicle purchases and service. Thanks guys. Keep up the great work.

Best Sales consultant ever
Steve is the greatest, we have purchased 4 car from him in the last 15 years, no haggling, no playing games, no funny business. He straight when it comes to the facts and doesn't play around, he makes you feel as if you have been knowing him all of your life!!! He make purchasing a car an easy experience. Thanks Steve!!!!!

The best car purchase experience, definitely recommend
Rich Hertogs was the best salesperson I've ever had the pleasure of dealing with in an automobile purchase. His no nonsense tell it like it is sales approach very a refreshing change from other salespeople. Marty Maggio made the transaction easy going and stress free. The whole team from Steve Hertogs, Rich and Marty went out of their way to make me feel like part of the family. I don't live in the area, in fact I live far away but it was all worth the trip to purchase my Corolla iM from Oak Lawn Toyota. I will send all my family and friends here.

Best experience I've had at a Car dealership.
I needed a car right away. Bob Spee worked with me most of the day to make it happen. Went out of his way to get me the car I wanted. Marty Maggio in finance explained everything and made it easy to understand. Bob was so helpful, listened to what I wanted and made it easy to leave with the perfect car for me. Thank you so much Oak Lawn Toyota.

Horrible Service
4 hard Inquiries from this process, very callous attitude from Marty Maggio, and Steve Hertogs! No stars Quinton Powell, 1st point of contact, was very professional, product knowledge was outstanding . Thank you Sir

Best Sales Team!
I purchased my Highlander Limited on April 21st, I had the very best experience from start to finish! Steve Barrix walked me through ever step of the purchase process! He listened to what I was looking for, showed me all vehicles that I wanted to see, pointed out the features and sold me on the Limited. Ron in aftermarket and accessories took care of all of my requests! Above and beyond great service. He had my remote start installed exactly when promised, showed me how to operate it and I was on my way! The finance process was amazing, (We requested Marty to handle our financing since we’ve know him for several years) To say that financing my vehicle was painless is absolutely true. Marty explained all the warranties that I wanted to add and how they would benefit me. I told him where I was comfortable with my payments and he made it happen! And I finally was able to meet the owner Ronnie, what a pleasure to talk to him while my paperwork was being processed. Thank You so much OakLawn Toyota, we will forever be your customers??

Friendly and helpful staff.
Friendly and helpful staff. Unlike other dealers didn't try to aggressively persuade a purchase of more expensive vehicle or protection plan for one. They also helped me to get my rental car to drop-off.
Jan 21, 2017
OUTSTANDING!!!
Over the years, our family has bought many a vehicle from Oak Lawn Toyota and the folks here have always been extremely fair, willing to work with you, and stand behind what they sell. From sales to financing to service, I have to say they make acquiring and maintaining a vehicle a lot less stressful! At last count I believe our family has had about 15 Toyotas and I keep telling them the next one should be "free" but they haven't been that accommodating yet! (Hint,Hint!) You can't go wrong in dealing with the folks at Oak Lawn! Their service dept is the best, fitting you in, getting the job done, and getting you on your way! Professional, courteous, and reliable!

Above and beyond
I leased a vehicle threw Oak Lawn Toyota. The salesman Dominik was extremely nice and so was his manager Steve. In the process of completing the lease there were some bumps in the road. It lead to me having the car looked at. Steve and Dominik bent over backwords for me and went above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of by getting me into another vehicle. I am beyond happy with the service I have recieved and the car I have leased. I wouldnt hesitate recommending anyone to purchase or lease a vehicle threw them.

we are northsiders
As the title says, we travelled from the lincolnwood area and bypassed quite a few dealerships to buy our car here. I am glad we did. All steps of the experience here were excellent. Everyone has a great attitude and while life happens and hicvups do occurr, they are quite upfront about any issues that do arise. The staff always makes time to answer questions or assist in any way they can.

Obviously recommendable
We have never had anything but good experiences at this dealership - sales, service, parts (once in a while) - all professional, knowledgeable, courteous, and when they say 'you'll have the car in two hours' that is what we can count on. We are a Toyota Family and have been for a long time, and Oak Lawn has kept us in that club.
Dec 04, 2015
awesome car buying experience !
I would recommend Oak Lawn toyota to anyone looking to buy a car. Everyone is so friendly and knowledgable but not pushy. Bob Spee was extremely helpful in our search for a used car. He found us exactly what we wanted. Rob Halderson in accessories was wonderful as well. We have been dealing with this dealership for many years and John McShane in service is always a pleasure to work with. We had a wonderful overall experience buying our new van.

Great experience buying my first Toyota!
I had a very positive experience buying my first Toyota at Oak Lawn Toyota. Lou Rodriguez was great; he knew about the product, was patient, answered my questions, and gave me a fair deal. Rob Halderson also was very helpful. I recommend this dealership to others.

friendly, no pressure.
My wife and I visited your dealership on May 23.We weren't sure whether we were going to purchase a vehicle or not.We were intent on dealing with Jessica Biel, but instead were introduced to Bob Spee.Bob made us feel at ease.We took a test drive, then had our questions answered.There was no hard sell, no pressure to buy. It was a nice relaxing feeling.We decided on purchasing a new RAV 4, and we are both very happy with our decision.Bob Spee is very knowledgeable, and he is driven to satisfy the customer.Our experience at Oak Lawn Toyota was long, but worth the wait.We would definitely recommend Oak Lawn Toyota again.

edZ 2015 Corolla
My wife and I bought a new 2015 Corolla on March 31st, It was the greatest car buying experienced we ever had. Thank you to Shawn Gasaway, Mark Girlich, Rob Halderson and Marty Maggio. We've bought cars to several dealers already, around the area and other places, and Oak Lawn Toyota is the best. This is our second Corolla from Oak Lawn Toyota, the other one is 2003 Corolla and still runs like new, thanks to their service dept. More power to Oak Lawn Toyota Team, a highly recommended dealership.

Oaklawn Toyota #1 4Runner trail great experience
My family and I have purchased vehicles from Oaklawn Toyota before but this experience was even better (Just when you think things cannot be better), I took my 2013 Toyota Venza in for an oil change, and noticed service manager Al Leon in the showroom, we talked about Toyotas and reliability, then i asked Al about the new 4runner he said "Like all Toyotas its a great vehicle," Now if the serivice manager who is honest (the service departemnt never plays the game selling you things you dont need), next I talked To Mark Girlich sales manager as we talk when I come in for service and told him i would like to eventually buy a TRD pro Toyota 4Runner maybe in Sept when I retire as a retirement gift to myself. Mark asked If I have looked into the Toyota 4runner Trail edition, i told him no, thenMark expalined all the attributes of this vehicle, have to admit my interest was peaked. He did not try any hard sell nonsense, but told me they would be getting 1 in but he was not sure when, so I was not ready to purchase at this time. They I researched the Trail, all i can say is awesome vehicle, next I was driving down 95th street past Oaklawn toyota and looked casually at the new car lot, there was a Attitude Black 4 runner sitting there, so I parked and decided "just to take a look" then looking it was the Trail edition, (felt like a kid looking at this awesome truck), so i said why not? Walked inside and spoke to salesman Bob Spee and told him I would like a test drive, he said ok finished with another customer and we went for a ride, I was to say the at least I was really impressed! Bob explained all the features (there are many), we appraised my Venza no pressure got a price and left! Went home called my wife she said "you sound like you really like it get it" so I called Bob and asked him to add running boards,he said sure will have it done early next day, and would hold it with no deposit. Came in the next day and there it was all washed and full tank of fuel, turned around inside the service Department what did I see? My old 1996 4runner in for service that I traded for the Venza still running, but needing some reapair by the experts at Oaklawn Toyota, turned my head walking toward showroom there was service manager Al Leon with a big smile, he knew I was going to buy that new 4Runner, and he knows the only place I will got for service is the best dealer with the best service department oaklawn Toyota. Then I sat down with Mike Maggio finance manager, had a great conversation the deal from Bob Spee was exactly on the money no extras, bought the 8 year 125,000 genuine Toyota platinum warranty (its a Toyota may never need it, but thought with all the computer stuff just in case), Bottom line not going to tell you the deal but it was unbeatable, my first 1996 4runner i had for 17 years now this 1 should be at least 20 years. If you want reliability check the ratings you will buy Toyota, look at comparable vehicles my new 4runner had a MSRP of $40,995 try to get all it has on say a Chevy Tahoe would cost $20,000 more and resale on Toyotas is high, but then again its hard to find a good used Toyota as family passes them down to other family members as the miles and reliability move forward! Thnak You Mark,Bob,Mike and BTW the owner Ronnie Colosimo was in the showroom shaking my hand for buying this awesome vehicle thanking me! 1 promise you will NEVER baet the price,and the service all around fantastic dealer!!

Great Dealership.
My friend recommended that I go to OakLawn Toyota to purchase my vehicle. I went to OakLawn Toyota looking to purchase a vehicle and I met Mr. Mike Henery and he helped me search through their huge inventory for the perfect vehicle at the right price for me. I want to thank Mr. Mike Henery for all of his help and the entire team at OakLawn Toyota.

Good Selection, Friendly Staff
Great selection of Rav4's. All the staff I dealt with were friendly and upfront with me. No pressure whatsoever. Price was great, 0% Financing, great remote starter (sounds like a 8-bit Nintendo sound when started). Will definitely come back if my wife ever needs a car.
Feb 11, 2015
Friendly, no pressure zone!!
This was my 1st time buying a car COMPLETELY on my own. Everyone that I talked to during my experience was nothing but pleasant. When it came down to dealing with my salesman, Mr. Barrix, he was nothing but friendly and completely no pressure. He gave me time to think, review, and look at other cars on the lot that were in my range of purchase. Could not have gone smoother or more stress free!! A++++ I even met the owner who is a sweet older gentleman with a grin that will brighten your day!

A Great Dealership
We have been buying cars from Oak Lawn Toyota for over 27 years and it has been nothing but a pleasure. This is a dealership that truly cares about their customers and goes the extra mile to make sure you have the best experience possible. We have always gotten the best deal from Oak Lawn Toyota. We have compared to other Toyota Dealers but Oak Lawn always beat them out. We even have a Toyota dealer less than a mile from our home but we still go to Oak Lawn.

Jack was very pleasant to work with. He has a good sense of humor. I left the dealership after a nice car shopping experience with a beautiful Sienna.

So far, So good!
I like my vehicle and I liked the sales staff. Chris Smith (new Sales Associate who still needs a box to check in this review!) is a good guy and was very comfortable working with with him. I came to this dealership after having visited another Toyota dealer and not particularly liking the staff. This place felt homier, smaller, more personable. Good people. So far, So good!

2015 4Runner
We'd been looking for an SUV to replace our QX4 and had located a 4Runner through AutoTrader at the Oak Lawn Toyota dealership. Jessica and Lauren helped us with some details that weren't readily available online and were also able to arrange a time for us to drop by for a test drive. When we arrived, Lou Rodriguez in sales had prepped the car and was ready for the test drive. Quality and reliability were top on our list of must haves along with a capable 4WD with a body-on-frame chassis - the 4Runner fit our needs perfectly and Lou made the buying experience very enjoyable. Furthermore, our kids had a great time at the dealership and were able to keep themselves engaged at the kids play area. We are now the proud owners of a 2015 4Runner and enjoy it every day. Thanks for the great experience.

Easiest Buy You Can Make
I heard from a relative that he had bought all of his vehicles (12) from the same dealership. The drive from Indianapolis was quite a hike, but I took a chance and made the drive. From the moment I pulled into the lot, I recieved phenominal customer service, great prices, and no product pushing. They actually recommended products I should decline. I would recommend this location to any individual searching for a car.

Go to Oak Lawn for your new Toyota
My wife was in for service on our 2007 Sienna and we have been looking for a new car for a few weeks. Bob Spee who sold us this car and three other Toyota's showed us a few makes and worked with our budget and we drove away with a 2014 Camry at a good price. Thanks Bob, again and Oak Lawn Toyota!!

GREAT RIDE & GREAT GAS MILEGE Thanks Lou

Great car buying experience
We bought a new Prius from Oak Lawn Toyota and were very happy with the total experience. I'll say from the start that we are regular customers there having boughjt our last car there 14 years ago it and another car serviced there sincde then. We started by shopping on the internet to get prices from dealers in the Chicago area for the car we wanted. Lauren Verdon was the internet salesperson and was very responsive and was able to answer all our questions. After we started we had a two month hiatus while we were busy with other things and Lauren was fine with that picking up where we had left off earlier. Our sales rep was Rob Halderson who was also great. When we got serious with finding the car we wanted, Rob and Lauren worked to find exactly what we wanted. When we arrived on the day of the sale, Rob worked with us on the final price coparing with other dealers and then helped us get familiafr with the car. Rob was helpful, straightforward, and did not pressure us about things we were not interested in. Lastly we went to Marty Maggio to deal with the paperwork and found him helpful, direct and easy to work with. After he explained the warrenty options, we felt no pressure to choose one option over another, It was all "what do you need?" Overall, the whole experience was as good a car buying experience as you can have. I highly recommend Oak Lawn Toyota

Toyota Bob is the BEST!!
Bob Halderson is unlike any other car salesman that we have ever encountered!!! I used to dread the whole buying a car experience...everything from the sliding the price quote across the table, to getting the manager to close the deal, to being held hostage and prevented from leaving when I had had enough. What a breath of fresh air when we met Bob 8 or 9 years ago - he encouraged us to shop around - wanting us to "find the best fit for our family." As a result, we have just purchased our 6th car from him (5 new and 1 used). Today we purchased a used Matrix for my college-aged son - Bob spent the whole summer looking for a reasonably priced, safe and solid car and he didn't disappoint us. I trust Bob completely and have faith in his wisdom, ethical approach and kind heart. He is with us from shopping to the sale through service appointments. He has even pinstriped one of our vehicles, helped to touch up scratches, cleaned a hard to remove pen mark on my brand new Highlander seat, and personally arranges service appointments for all of our cars. Amazingly, he has also volunteered to give mock sales demonstrations for my high school speech classes - the students loved him so much, that they brought their parents back to buy cars from him! He demonstrates a passion and loyalty for his customers that is authentic and rarely demonstrated in today's competitive market. Truly one of a kind - you can't do better than this gentleman!!

Our buying experience
It was painless. We have done a complete turnaround on how we view auto sales people. Steve Hertogs, Lou Rodriguez, and Marty Maggio were super friendly. We were treated like human beings. In the past 3 months we were in numerous dealerships and by far Oaklawn Toyota was by the most outstanding place to buy a car. We ran into some very negative sales people on the way to finding the great people at Oaklawn Toyota. We read previous reviews and decided it would be worth the drive of 50 miles to go to Oaklawn to make the purchase. We were very glad we did. #1 our car was inside the building away from the elements, #2 our chosen options (roof rack, door edge guards, and side guards) were done and on the car. #3 The price we were told days earlier was the price we paid. And one doesn't realize how far a friendly atmosphere goes in making our buying experience comfortable. Dan and Jenny

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
My husband and I had a very pleasant experience purchasing our Sienna from Oak Lawn Toyota. The owner, Ronnie Colosimo, is a very approachable guy and wonderful to work with. He knows how to make you feel like family! Dominik, the sales associate, was very knowledgeable and helped guide us to the perfect van to fit our growing family's needs. Steve, the sales manager, found that perfect van and expeditiously brought it to Oak Lawn to finalize our purchase. We are EXTREMELY grateful for the wonderful hospitality of everyone at Oak Lawn Toyota. We will definitely be back to do business in the future!!!

Friendly, no pressure, and anything they could do for you, Steve, and Mark were patient and helpful to make sure I was comfortable in choosing the vehicle of my choice. Marty explained in detail all that Toyota offers. They were there to make sure I was pleased and satisfied with my choice of a quality and reliable vehicle.

I am giving this rating for anyone out there who...
I am giving this rating for anyone out there who "dreads" the car buying pressure when you purchase a vehicle. My wife and I went to several dealerships looking for an SUV. I was extremely impressed with the service my wife and I received from Marc Girlich, Rob Halderson and Marty Maggio at Toyoto Oak Lawn. In all of our years of purchasing vehicles, we have never had a smoother and friendlier experience. These men could not have made our car buying experience any better. From the time we walked into Oak Lawn Toyota there was never any "pressure" to buy, only great information and interest in what we wanted for our family's needs. I would highly recommend Marc Girlich and Rob Halderson at Oak Lawn Toyota to anyone looking for an enjoyable car buying experience.

Forthright and not pushy
I am a disabled veteran and I found everyone very accomadating and concerned without making me feel uncomfortable. The buying experience was without pressure, we were allowed time to think and to ask question (an we had a lot of questions). We were not pressed to buy extras, but we were informed of the down side if we did not consider the discussed extras, it was our decision. We would not hesitate to buy another car from Steve Barrix and this dealership...

Overall a very good experince.
Recently bought a 2020 Camry from Oak Lawn Toyota. This is the 4th vehicle I have purchased from Oak Lawn over the past 20 years. Each purchase went very well. My salesperson for the 2020 Camry, Tina McDermott, was knowledgeable, accommodating and patient. I recommend Tina and the dealership.

Great Selection and Great Service
This is the best dealership around and you know you can't go wrong with a Toyota. My salesman, Manny helped me to find just the right car for my needs, he was patient and knowledgeable. He has been our salesman twice now, that's how good he is. A shout out to Sam who is in the right position as a customer relations manager!! Jason, in finance, made the final transactions simple and quick. OLT has a great team!!

Perfect Car Shopping Experience
I recently purchased my first car at Oak Lawn Toyota and had a fantastic experience! I came in with an idea of what I wanted and Vince made sure I understand the pros and cons to both cars I was considering so that I left with the car I needed. The whole process went smoothly and I never felt rushed or pressured to make a decision. They answered all my questions and made sure that I was fully prepared to purchase and finance my car. I would highly recommend Oak Lawn Toyota to anyone, especially new car owners! Thank you Oak Lawn Toyota, Vince, Steve, Mark, Jason and Sam! We love our Highlander!

My 2018 camry
This my second Toyota that I purchased this year From Toyota of Oak Lawn sales representative Mike Henery was very helpful with the purchase my new 2018 Camry I definitely liked the fact that my new car was ready at the time told me and his follow up after I took possession has impressed me. I will recommend Oak Lawn Toyota every chance I get.
Aug 29, 2018
Great experience all around
From start to finish, Oak Lawn Toyota is an outstanding place to buy a car. Vincent, our salesman, had thorough knowledge of all products, tuned into our preferences, and worked hard to make sure we had the best experience finding the car that suited our needs and preferences. All persons involved in our purchase treated us so well we really did feel like family. There was no pushiness, just good business practices, professionalism, and efficiency. Great job!

Best Dealer Around!
Always a very Good experience at Oak Lawn Toyota. The staff is always very professional and accommodating. I pass a lot of Toyota dealers on my way to this dealership and is the only one I can trust. Jacek Makselan sold me a new 2018 Highlander and I can't say enough good things about how he handled the deal. Jason Stoit handled the finance and did an outstanding job! Thanks Guy's Mark Kall

Camry Hybrid
I bought a new Camry Hybrid a few weeks ago. I have loved the car! I enjoyed the process of working with Ronnie, Mark, Bob, and Jason. They listened to what I was looking for, found it, and offered a great price. They treated me like a friend. It was a better experience than what any local dealership could do, so we went out of state to Oak Lawn Toyota. I would happily do business with them again. Thank you!
Dec 27, 2017
Great Experience,, Great auto 2018 CAMRY SE
I was greeted by the salesman as if he knew me for years. We talked about my jobs, family and friends we bought knew.. He had a lot of patience as I test drove four vehicles..Felt comfortable and was explained in detail about the vehicles. Was also impressed with Finance, was explained in detail about the extended warranties and finance options. All done in a timely manner.. This is the 3rd auto that I have purchased from Oaklawn Toyota. And I have to mention the Service Dept, especially John McShane who is courteous,knowledgeable and accomadating.

Best Car Purchase Experience Ever!
I purchased a 2018 Toyota 4Runner-TRD Off Road from Oak Lawn Toyota. The Internet Sales Manager, Vianey Reyes, was readily available by telephone/email to answer questions and set up an appointment for viewing the vehicle, A+++ customer services. The Sales Consultant, Steve Barrix, went above and beyond to make sure I purchased the unit I was most comfortable with. He gave me suggestions and his advice, but was in no way pushy what-so-ever. Buying a car from him was a great experience, the process was quick, professional and absolutely painless! We all know how painful buying a car could be but Steve and the Oak Lawn team will change that perspective. I would recommend Steve Barrix to anyone who is looking for a new or used vehicle.

Great dealership, best place to purchase a car from
Had a great experience purchasing a new car. Great people, the staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. Excellent selection of vehicles. Really help with my decision on which vehicle would be best for my needs. Would recommend them to everyone.

Great Experience
I found my vehicle here from out of state, and I had a great experience with Oak Lawn. Scott Hill was awesome, he picked me up from the airport on his day off! My wife wants a Highlander so I will definitely be back.

Great service
Bob is a great salesman he help us on choosing a great car and was very friendly with us and helpful Thank you great service
Jan 26, 2016
Exceeded My Expectation
The morning before going to Oak Lawn Toyota I was really nervous because I am a woman who knows very little about cars and because I'd never financed a car. But my salesman Bob Spee was very professional and honest with me. I ended up leaving the dealership with an affordable 2006 Toyota, which exceeded my expectation. If you need a car and want trustworthy service, please go to Oak Lawn Toyota!
Jan 25, 2016
Exceptional Service
Lou was my sales consultant and he and the rest of the team I dealt with get the highest of ratings from me. I was in and out the door in two hours with a smile on my face and the keys to my new ride in my hand. I'm very confident going forward that the relationship I have with Oak Lawn Toyota will keep me satisfied and driving the streets of Chicago comfortably.

"Excellent Customer Service"
I purchased my first car from Oak lawn Toyota 16 years ago and I returned to receive the same Great Service I received then. Bob Spee is an awesome sales men he showed so much compassion and patience in serving me.

I love Oak Lawn Toyota!
My family has purchased 6 used Toyota vehicles over the years from Oak Lawn Toyota. We have never been disappointed! What super people! The staff is like family. The service is stupendous. And the service department treats us right. We all maintain our cars at Oak Lawn! I wouldn't buy a car anywhere else. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Sep 22, 2015
Awesome place - Oak Lawn Toyota!
We have never owned a Toyota before, but thought we would try something different this time. A friend recommended Oak Lawn Toyota and said that Bob Spee was a 'gem', which we found out first hand is totally the truth! Bob was amazing to work with, as was everyone else at OLT! Bob made the car buying experience so painless because he was patient and willing to find us exactly the car that fit our needs! We absolutely LOVE our new Highlander and will definitely be back for our next car! Thanks OLT!

Best car buying experience I've had.
Oak Lawn Toyota totally blew it out of the water as far as providing me with a great truck buying experience. I walked in knowing exactly what kind of truck I wanted and knew what I was willing to pay. Not once did my salesman try and push me or up sell me to a more expensive model. Once we had the ball rolling in the sales dept we moved onto accessories dept. like undercoating, extended warranty, so on and so forth. They didn't beat me over the head for hours as I've dealt with in the past. The accessories salesman knew what he was doing. Rather than going over every single accessory he narrowed down to the 2 most popular options and if needed he offered to explain all of the other great accessories. He was very friendly and personable. As with sales and acessorries departments the finance dept. did a great job too. Got me the best payment plan he could. Explained everything clearly and made quick work of all the paperwork. Overall Oak Lawn Toyota did a great job. Best dealership experience I've ever had. I would have no problem recommending a family member or close friend to Oak Lawn Toyota. Thanks for getting me into my new truck and keep up the good work!
May 28, 2015
A Great Experience
I went back to Oak Lawn Toyota for my new car. The last time I bought a car it was 10 years ago at Oak Lawn Toyota. I was hoping that the atmosphere, quality and friendliness of the staff hadn't changed. I was not disappointed. The staff is still friendly and helpful. I walked in @ 4 pm and left with a new car before 7 pm. The team worked with me to find a price everyone would be comfortable with. These days it's hard to find a car dealership where a person is treated with decency. A big thank you to Oak Lawn Toyota!
Mar 30, 2015
All around great experience
Great experience across the board with the Oak Lawn Toyota. Thanks to Lou, Lauren, Jason and the gentleman offering after sale coverage. This is the 2nd car we have purchased at Oak Lawn Toyota and for good reason "The support".

Let the good times coROLLa!
Last week I purchased a 2015 Corolla (my first new car! I love it!!) from Oak Lawn Toyota with Johnny Collins, and I could not have been happier with the experience. Every staff member I encountered from the internet sales team to the finance department was friendly and welcoming. Johnny did an excellent job helping me explore my options, answering all my questions, helping me find the best fit for me at the best value, hunting for applicable discounts and promotions, and working to get me the best deal for my trade-in—a 2001 Saturn; it was a good little car but Johnny really had his work cut out for him there. Pricing was straightforward, simple, and concrete from the very beginning—something I did not experience at another dealership in the area—which made everything that much easier. If you’re in the market, look no further: Oak Lawn Toyota is where it’s at!

New Customer for life!
My experience was so warm and friendly. This was the fourth Toyota dealership I had been to and had bad experiences at all of them until I walked through the doors at Oak Lawn Toyota. I started correspondence with Lauren who was great, worked with Steve who was great, onto Rob for my remote start, and ended with Jason for finance. They were all fantastic and accommodating. Rob even gave me 2 stuffed animals to bring home to my kids! Can't say enough, have been telling people to go there and I will now be a customer for life!

Bought new Toyota Highlander 2015!
Jack was great! I previously got my 2005 Toyota Corolla from Oak Lawn Toyota. Last week it got totaled in an accident after someone hit me. The staff at Oak Lawn Toyota has always been friendly and welcoming. My fiancé and I knew we wanted a Toyota Highlander for it's safety, size, reliability, good resale value, and quality. Jack was very informative and helpful throughout the car buying process. During the test drive he was down to earth and took the time to answer all of our questions. They day we bought the car he was ready for us! He made the entire process easy and stress free. Once all the paper work was done he spent an hour going over the features of the XLE with us. He helped sync my information to the car system. My fiancé and I knew exactly what we wanted and Jack put everything together nicely. We could not be more happy with Oak Lawn Toyota service and our new car. I myself love Toyota for their durability and high quality. I know this is a car that will be with us for years and years to come while we build a family. And when we are ready for another car down the road we know just where to look :)

2014 RAV 4
My wife and I had a great experience at Toyota of Highland. We went to a couple different dealerships and this one was by far the friendliest. We did not have to haggle prices with them we went to a few places and asked for their best price and they by far gave us the best quote! Rob and Bob were very helpful and really seemed to care about us and not just making the sale. We are confident that if anything ever goes wrong they will help us out however they can. We love our car and recommend them to family and friends! Jason in finance was also very easy to work with and made the process go smoothly.
Sep 09, 2014
Thanks for making it so easy!
Many thanks to Lauren Verdon for promptly responding to my research requests and for expediting our pre-approval for 0% financing. I really appreciated her help in enabling us to make our decision remotely with no time wasted. We also appreciated Lou Rodriquez' friendly and efficient handling of all our questions at the dealership, where he met us with our selected car all set to go. His professional and courteous management of all the purchase details made it a painless experience. When Jason Stoit navigated us quickly through the financial paperwork, we were grateful for his attention to detail and ability to offer us clear payment options. What a nice young man! All in all, our Rav4 purchase was a smooth and pleasant experience.

My first corolla with a five star salesman
From the minute we walked through the front door, my husband and I had an excellent experience at this dealership. There was no pressure when looking around. When Rob Halderson introduced himself and welcomed us to Oak Lawn Toyota, he was extremely helpful, warm and friendly. Rob went above and beyond to answer all of our questions and made us feel comfortable about buying our first Corolla. He was very thorough when walking us through all the nice features on our new car. Thanks to Steve Hertogs, we were able to get the color I wanted through another dealership. We couldn't be more pleased and the price was excellent. Usually they say when you have a bad experience, you tell everyone. When you have a good experience, you tell no one. That will not be the case however, because we can't stop talking about the excellent salesman Rob Halderson, the awesome Sales Manager, Steve Hertogs and Jason Stroit in the finance department. Thanks again.
Aug 05, 2014
Sales and Finance
Cannot say enough about the great experience I had with this dealership. We purchased a new and used car from Rob Halderson and he went above and beyond for both purchases. Jason Stoit went out of his way and was able to get us a great financing rate. Without his help, I am not sure we could have afforded the new car. I will definitely purchase a car again from Oak Lawn Toyota especially because of Rob and Jason.
Aug 03, 2014
will return for next car
steve went above and beyond to secure my very hard to find car with the color i wanted. in fact everyone there was very friendly and helpful. thank you for a very pleasant experience. This is how buying a car should be everywhere.. thank you

1St Time Vist--Not The Last
On 7/28 at the recommendation of our Cousin Harry, we went to check out a car at Oak Lawn Toyota and speak to the sakes rep Bob Spee. The experience was GREAT from start to finish when we pulled away in our Rav4. Everyone we had contact with at the dealership was great but Bob Spee, the Sales Rep was fantastic. It was the 1st time we met him yet he made us feel so comfortable and relaxed we knew his objective was to find the right car for us...not just "sell us a car". We are now the 6th referral from our cousin that has gone to Oak Lawn Toyota, dealt with Bob Spee and left happy. This is the 6th vehicle we have purchased since we have been married but it has been 100% the BEST buying experience, again, from start to finish. So if you need a new car, used car or want to lease a car...head to Oak Lawn Toyota and ask for Bob Spee...you WILL NOT be disappointed!!!!

Oak Lawn Toyota is the ONLY place to buy your New Toyota
Our family just purchased our 6th new vehicle from Oak Lawn Toyota and Rob Halderson. Rob is the best car salesperson we have ever worked with. Not pushy or arrogant. My wife and daughter are as comfortable dealing with Rob as I am. He knows his Toyota's inside and out and takes the time to explain all of your car buying options in a friendly, relaxed manner. NO high pressure tactics with Rob. And when it's time to pick up that new car, Rob goes over all of the features ( some of them more than once) until you're almost as knowledgeable as he is about that Toyota. Jason was wonderful when it came time to go through the finance options including GAP insurance that every car buyer should become familiar with to protect their investment. Friendly people and GREAT service. That's Oak Lawn Toyota. Tony, Mary and Bridget Ventura

Most pleasant car buying experience we've ever had! No pressure, no BS, and overly willing to work in our price range. I highly recommend Steve Hill in Sales - knows his cars and was very honest. When they didn't have the car I wanted on Saturday, they got for me by Monday and Steve went and got it himself. We were very impressed with this dealership. We have a teenager that will need a car next year and I will be buying from here again.

Top notch customer service is offered here. The customer is #1 at Oak Lawn Toyota and it shows with the way the staff treats the customer. My experience here was very positive with every step of the process of buying a car. The environment and attitude of the staff is low pressure and friendly. They aim to build relationships not just a one-time sale. Steve Hill and John Carnivele worked hard at making my purchase worry free. They were readily available to offer information and answer my questions. The transition from sales to financing with Jason Stoit was seamless. It was obvious to me the staff communicates well with each other. They really do work as a team which is really refreshing when buying a car. Thank you for the opportunity to work with a truly professional team.

I have been purchasing vehicles from Oak Lawn Toyota for over 25 years, and in all of that time they have remained an honest, friendly dealership that has an integrity that is hard to find these days. I always receive the lowest price and highest service from Oak Lawn Toyota and it feels like family whenever I go back. I purchased a 2014 Corolla yesterday and the new body style, engine and interior are incredible, I cannot express how impressed I am with the improvements but I can say that I love driving it. Every step of the Oak Lawn Toyota experience is smooth, quick and without pressure. I was trading in my 2008 Corolla and was given a great price on the spot, very straight forward and easy. Jason Stoit worked with me explaining each trim line of the new Corolla and walked me around to show me the differences. My new Corolla has keyless push button start, navigation, blue tooth, leather heated seats, touch screen with radio, apps & more, and Jason spent so much time explaining each feature, showing me how to connect my iphone for hands free calling and how to play all of my itunes music in the car, and so much more, and this was after the sale was final, yet I never felt rushed or hurried, Jason seemed truly concerned that I know all of the great new functions in my new Corolla. Getting financing at Oak Lawn was a breeze and their rates are always competitive. I should mention that during this transaction at least 3 different employees came out to say hello and ask how I was when they heard I was back purchasing another car, and this included the owner Ronnie Colosimo who is such a class act, not only as the owner but through all of his charity work over the years. Every person that works at Oak Lawn Toyota knows that Ronnie has spent decades working with the underprivileged and has been extremely generous with his time and money. There are a lot of car dealers out there, and most people stress out over the thought of having to buy a car and deal with the salespeople, no one wants to feel like they were ripped off or taken advantage of, so do yourself a favor, skip the stress and visit Oak Lawn Toyota.

I started my process over the internet with Jacob, who was incredibly helpful but also very patient. I really hate talking on the phone and didn't want to go back and forth with anyone on the phone; Jacob understood this and was very willing to communicate with me strictly over email. We set up a time that I could come in and have my trade in looked at. Jacob was great to work with and not at all pushy which is kind of what I expected since it is a car dealership. When I went into Toyota, the first person I met was Steve. He was so easy to work with! He took me out for a test drive right away and explained all the different features on the car while we were going. Once we returned to the dealership, the process was smooth and relatively quick for buying a car. Steve is incredibly amiable and so easy to work with. For the financing part of the process, I worked with Jason (who also helped me set up the Bluetooth in the car). He's relatively new to the finance department but was still a pleasure to work with. This was the time that I expected to be bombarded with add ons and different offers but I wasn't. Jason explained each of the options to me and then just took my answer; he never once tried to push me into doing something I didn't want to do. Overall, my experience was a great one and I'll definitely recommend Oak Lawn Toyota to everyone I know looking to buy a car. I've always used them for maintenance on my car but now I'll use them whenever I'm looking to purchase too!

My wife and I live in Colorado and even though there is a Toyota Dealership in our home town we bought a Toyota Avalon from Oak Lawn Toyota. They were able to find the car that best suited our needs and sold it to us at a very reasonable price. So reasonable that it made economic sense for us to buy one way tickets to Oak Lawn to pick up the car and drive it back to Colorado. Our sales person, Jason Stoit, answered all our questions when conducting business over the phone, he emailed pictures of the car to us and he picked us at the airport. The dealings with the Finance Manager, Dave, went very smooth. We felt he was on our side when making decisions about the purchasing options. Also got the pleasure to visit with the owner of Oak Lawn Toyota. Very personable, made you feel like you were part of the family.

Oak Lawn Toyota is fabulous! As I shopped for a new car, I visited a lot of dealerships for over two months. Oak Lawn Toyota had the best employees - and the best product! - of any place I visited. Jason Stoit was my salesman, and he was so kind, knowledgeable, and honest. The first time I went to the dealership, he spent about three hours with me as I test drove cars. He patiently explained the features of the cars, and he gave me printouts of the specifications and prices for all the cars I was interested in (something no other dealer I visited did!). After two more visits back to Oak Lawn Toyota, I bought a 2013 Camry. Before I left with my new car, Jason spent so much time showing me how everything works. I highly recommend Jason. He's a great guy, and he made buying a car a fun experience! I was also impressed by the kindness and honesty of everyone else I met at Oak Lawn Toyota, including Bob Spee (salesman), new car manager Mark Girlich, and finance manager Dave Capelle. Dave made the whole finance process so easy and efficient. This is a small, family-owned business, and you can tell. Everyone there seems to love what they do, and they care about making the customers happy.

I can’t express enough how time consuming looking to find a car is. Toyota Oak Lawn gave me the time, patience and guidance to achieve this overwhelming adventure. Walking in the door with no knowledge which direction financially and car choice I wanted, but knew enough that Toyota was the best car to buy after researching. The salesman Mike Henry immediately had me looking and driving different vehicles to see what I liked. Sales manager Mark Girlich ran my information giving options what each vehicle costs, financing and extra options available. Then when my decision was made finance manager Marty Maggio explained every piece of paperwork along with the different extra vehicle service agreements available. My total experience was walking out feeling like I would never go anywhere else but Toyota Oak Lawn to buy a vehicle. There was never any pressure with any of these wonderful men, totally felt comfortable, Toyota should be very proud of their great staff!

Both Mark Girlich and Dominick Gibek were very helpful with my purchase of a 2020 Toyota Corolla. They made the transaction easy, and I purchased my car quicker than anticipated.

Honest, communicative and a great deal on the car I wanted.
What more can you ask for than a great deal, salespeople who are helpful, honest and keep you in the loop about delivery dates, etc.? That's the experience I had with Oak Lawn Toyota. I don't buy cars frequently, so a car purchase can be stressful. But the personnel at Oak Lawn Toyota (Nick Taiym- salesman, Mark Girlich -sales manager, Ronnie Colosimo - owner) made everything about the purchase easy, transparent and non-stressful. This is where you want to buy your next car - honestly!

undecided
We were looking for a car for our son, my husband and I didn't agree on which car to get. I wanted the camry, he wanted the corolla. He thought the camry was too expensive and I didn't like the size or body style of the corolla. Bob Spee and Mark helped us purchase a camry that I liked with a price that my husband was happy with. Our son loves the car and so does my husband. No the disagreement is who gets to drive the car.
Mar 13, 2019
Very nice experience
My wife and I went there just to see the difference between the Highlander LE plus and the XLE. We told the salesman right off the bat that we were not buying that day. To be honest at that time we didn't have a clue as to witch dealership we were going to do business with, we just wanted to lay eyes on the two different trim levels and they were the closest dealership to our house. Manny greeted us at the door, we told him why we were there, and he spent the next 30 to 45 minutes showing us the two different vehicles and answering our questions. We went back in the building so he could get us some additional information, and that's when we met Mark the sales manager. Mark spent about 10 minutes telling us some of the options available to us. At no point did either Mark or Manny try to pressure us into buying. It was a very friendly and comfortable conversation. After emailing about 20 other Toyota dealerships and getting quotes, Oak Lawn Toyota was about average with their price. So, because they treated us extremely nice, and had no problem answering multiple questions over a 3 week period,we decided to sit down and talk numbers. We ended up getting a great deal on a 2019 Highlander XLE. The whole process was easy and painless.

Great service Great people #1 AAAAA++
Brought my 2015 4Runner in for service Friday, as I pulled in met the new service manager Juan Vazquez young man that has much knowledge very personable, nice to see a young man that knows how to treat longtime customers, then into service office where Frank Nash was the service writer another asset to Oaklawn toyotas team of professionals, then noticed all the young technicians, some new faces after talking to them about my vehicle they definitely have the advanced knowledge needed in the era of computer controlled vehicle problems! My vehicle was serviced, on time and completed expeditiously, again in the competitive world of vehicle service they stand above the crowd. If you proper, honest service Oaklawn Toyota proves why they are still around and ready to sell and after the sale take care of your vehicle, the best! Also talked to my salesman Bob Spee and Mark Girlich another part if the team who we will be dealing with soon to buy another new long lasting Toyota!

Camry Hybrid
I bought a new Camry Hybrid a few weeks ago. I have loved the car! I enjoyed the process of working with Ronnie, Mark, Bob, and Jason. They listened to what I was looking for, found it, and offered a great price. They treated me like a friend. It was a better experience than what any local dealership could do, so we went out of state to Oak Lawn Toyota. I would happily do business with them again. Thank you!

Best Sales Team!
I purchased my Highlander Limited on April 21st, I had the very best experience from start to finish! Steve Barrix walked me through ever step of the purchase process! He listened to what I was looking for, showed me all vehicles that I wanted to see, pointed out the features and sold me on the Limited. Ron in aftermarket and accessories took care of all of my requests! Above and beyond great service. He had my remote start installed exactly when promised, showed me how to operate it and I was on my way! The finance process was amazing, (We requested Marty to handle our financing since we’ve know him for several years) To say that financing my vehicle was painless is absolutely true. Marty explained all the warranties that I wanted to add and how they would benefit me. I told him where I was comfortable with my payments and he made it happen! And I finally was able to meet the owner Ronnie, what a pleasure to talk to him while my paperwork was being processed. Thank You so much OakLawn Toyota, we will forever be your customers??

Great buying experience
Went to Oak lawn Toyota looking for a new Camry and was greeted by Dominik Gibik. He listened to my needs than took me out to see the car i was interested in explaining the car and features to me. We went back in to talk over a price which was great Before I left he introduced me to GM Mark Girlich who understood what i needed and agreed to the price i was given. I later changed my mind on the Camry I wanted ant unfortunately Oak Lawn Toyota didn't have the exact model and color I, did vehicle search. I was pressed for time to make a purchase over this past weekend and found the exact car I wanted at another Toyota dealer, where i mad my purchase. I would highly recommend Oak Lawn Toyota to anyone in the Oak Lawn area since they are not a high pressure dealership.

OUTSTANDING!!!
Over the years, our family has bought many a vehicle from Oak Lawn Toyota and the folks here have always been extremely fair, willing to work with you, and stand behind what they sell. From sales to financing to service, I have to say they make acquiring and maintaining a vehicle a lot less stressful! At last count I believe our family has had about 15 Toyotas and I keep telling them the next one should be "free" but they haven't been that accommodating yet! (Hint,Hint!) You can't go wrong in dealing with the folks at Oak Lawn! Their service dept is the best, fitting you in, getting the job done, and getting you on your way! Professional, courteous, and reliable!

Loyalty & Honesty
I have bought and had my vehicles serviced at Oak Lawn Toyota since 1993. Whether purchasing or receiving maintenance on my vehicles at Oak Lawn Toyota. They are fair with pricing, but more important for me they could be trusted with their work in what they do and their honest about. They truly care for their customer. Since 1993 after my 1st purchase of a 1993 Camry. I've never shopped at any other dealer. Oak Lawn Toyota is the real deal. I've never left the parking lot second guessing myself or thinking that I just got ripped off. I highly recommend this dealership. Give them a try. I believe you will be satisfied in whatever they do for you.

"Listen to my needs"
Was looking for a car for my son for college, They found me a reliable vehicle within my budget. No wasting my time. They were right to the point and didn't try to up-sell.

Awesome dealership
I just purchased my fourth vehicle from Oak Lawn Toyota. The entire staff went above and beyond in assisting me with my purchase and was very informative. They treat you like first class from the moment you walk in. Several of my family members and friends also continue to buy their cars from Oak Lawn Toyota.

edZ 2015 Corolla
My wife and I bought a new 2015 Corolla on March 31st, It was the greatest car buying experienced we ever had. Thank you to Shawn Gasaway, Mark Girlich, Rob Halderson and Marty Maggio. We've bought cars to several dealers already, around the area and other places, and Oak Lawn Toyota is the best. This is our second Corolla from Oak Lawn Toyota, the other one is 2003 Corolla and still runs like new, thanks to their service dept. More power to Oak Lawn Toyota Team, a highly recommended dealership.

Let the good times coROLLa!
Last week I purchased a 2015 Corolla (my first new car! I love it!!) from Oak Lawn Toyota with Johnny Collins, and I could not have been happier with the experience. Every staff member I encountered from the internet sales team to the finance department was friendly and welcoming. Johnny did an excellent job helping me explore my options, answering all my questions, helping me find the best fit for me at the best value, hunting for applicable discounts and promotions, and working to get me the best deal for my trade-in—a 2001 Saturn; it was a good little car but Johnny really had his work cut out for him there. Pricing was straightforward, simple, and concrete from the very beginning—something I did not experience at another dealership in the area—which made everything that much easier. If you’re in the market, look no further: Oak Lawn Toyota is where it’s at!

Great Dealer to buy from with cheaper price. I got my car for good price, always deal with Shawn Gasaway. I love my new car :)

Oaklawn Toyota #1 4Runner trail great experience
My family and I have purchased vehicles from Oaklawn Toyota before but this experience was even better (Just when you think things cannot be better), I took my 2013 Toyota Venza in for an oil change, and noticed service manager Al Leon in the showroom, we talked about Toyotas and reliability, then i asked Al about the new 4runner he said "Like all Toyotas its a great vehicle," Now if the serivice manager who is honest (the service departemnt never plays the game selling you things you dont need), next I talked To Mark Girlich sales manager as we talk when I come in for service and told him i would like to eventually buy a TRD pro Toyota 4Runner maybe in Sept when I retire as a retirement gift to myself. Mark asked If I have looked into the Toyota 4runner Trail edition, i told him no, thenMark expalined all the attributes of this vehicle, have to admit my interest was peaked. He did not try any hard sell nonsense, but told me they would be getting 1 in but he was not sure when, so I was not ready to purchase at this time. They I researched the Trail, all i can say is awesome vehicle, next I was driving down 95th street past Oaklawn toyota and looked casually at the new car lot, there was a Attitude Black 4 runner sitting there, so I parked and decided "just to take a look" then looking it was the Trail edition, (felt like a kid looking at this awesome truck), so i said why not? Walked inside and spoke to salesman Bob Spee and told him I would like a test drive, he said ok finished with another customer and we went for a ride, I was to say the at least I was really impressed! Bob explained all the features (there are many), we appraised my Venza no pressure got a price and left! Went home called my wife she said "you sound like you really like it get it" so I called Bob and asked him to add running boards,he said sure will have it done early next day, and would hold it with no deposit. Came in the next day and there it was all washed and full tank of fuel, turned around inside the service Department what did I see? My old 1996 4runner in for service that I traded for the Venza still running, but needing some reapair by the experts at Oaklawn Toyota, turned my head walking toward showroom there was service manager Al Leon with a big smile, he knew I was going to buy that new 4Runner, and he knows the only place I will got for service is the best dealer with the best service department oaklawn Toyota. Then I sat down with Mike Maggio finance manager, had a great conversation the deal from Bob Spee was exactly on the money no extras, bought the 8 year 125,000 genuine Toyota platinum warranty (its a Toyota may never need it, but thought with all the computer stuff just in case), Bottom line not going to tell you the deal but it was unbeatable, my first 1996 4runner i had for 17 years now this 1 should be at least 20 years. If you want reliability check the ratings you will buy Toyota, look at comparable vehicles my new 4runner had a MSRP of $40,995 try to get all it has on say a Chevy Tahoe would cost $20,000 more and resale on Toyotas is high, but then again its hard to find a good used Toyota as family passes them down to other family members as the miles and reliability move forward! Thnak You Mark,Bob,Mike and BTW the owner Ronnie Colosimo was in the showroom shaking my hand for buying this awesome vehicle thanking me! 1 promise you will NEVER baet the price,and the service all around fantastic dealer!!

Good Selection, Friendly Staff
Great selection of Rav4's. All the staff I dealt with were friendly and upfront with me. No pressure whatsoever. Price was great, 0% Financing, great remote starter (sounds like a 8-bit Nintendo sound when started). Will definitely come back if my wife ever needs a car.

My New Avalon
I just purchased my 8th consecutive vehicle from Oak Lawn Toyota. Steve Barrix was once again the ideal salesman: congenial, knowledgeable, helpful and straight-forward. He and Mark Girlich made sure that the price was right for the car I bought. They have become old friends after this many years. Dave Capelle made sure that the process of completing the paperwork was rapid and painless. Bottom line: if you want to buy the best car on the market, buy a Toyota; if you want to buy it at the best place, go to Oak Lawn Toyota.
Jan 23, 2015
Excellent Service
If you're looking to purchase a car I strongly recommend Oak Lawn Toyota. The staff was very attentive to my request, wants, and needs. Buying my new Corolla from Oak Lawn Toyota was the best car buying experience of my life. LaTrice R.

A Great Dealership
We have been buying cars from Oak Lawn Toyota for over 27 years and it has been nothing but a pleasure. This is a dealership that truly cares about their customers and goes the extra mile to make sure you have the best experience possible. We have always gotten the best deal from Oak Lawn Toyota. We have compared to other Toyota Dealers but Oak Lawn always beat them out. We even have a Toyota dealer less than a mile from our home but we still go to Oak Lawn.

My great Toyota experience!
This was my 2nd purchase at Oaklawn Toyota! Mark Girlich was a great person to work with. He helped me to find the exact car I wanted.He was very straight forward with the cost and my trade in. The finance dept. was very thorough.Customer service was great! I was giving all the info.on operating my vehicle before I left the dealership!I would recommend this dealership on 3 things 1) Mark Girlich 2) Lou Rodriguez 3)I love my new car!
Dec 22, 2014
So far, So good!
I like my vehicle and I liked the sales staff. Chris Smith (new Sales Associate who still needs a box to check in this review!) is a good guy and was very comfortable working with with him. I came to this dealership after having visited another Toyota dealer and not particularly liking the staff. This place felt homier, smaller, more personable. Good people. So far, So good!

Friendly, no pressure, and anything they could do for you, Steve, and Mark were patient and helpful to make sure I was comfortable in choosing the vehicle of my choice. Marty explained in detail all that Toyota offers. They were there to make sure I was pleased and satisfied with my choice of a quality and reliable vehicle.

Went to oaklawn Toyota in oct 2012 to trade my reliable 1996 4 runner, for a new vehicle, met Steve Hill great guy, and Mark Girlich the manager, been dealing with oaklawn Toyota for a number of years, and always have been treated with respect, great deals extremely great service department. Ok the reason for the review is I bought a great car a Venza 2013 XLE v-6, just an awesome vehicle, with this brutal Chicago winter this vehicle went through all the snow and ice perfectly, the car looks good, and had to go to springfield Illinois on a day with the snow coming down and highway full of snow and ice, a truck was passing me huge semi going fast, I felt the Venza start to slide toward the truck, when the car suddenly shook the skid control took over the car regained its footing quickly, I have never felt more safer and this experience really showed what Toyota is about safety! This car is very reliable, no problems at all so far. After trading in the 4runner and having the Venza for a year I went back to oaklawn Toyota and took the 4 runner for a test drive as I missed the 4 runner, but truthfully the venza is so roomy and comfortable and just a great vehicle, great on gas get 28 mpg highway in the city about 19-20 and that's with a powerful v-6! Toyota has my family and myself hooked and the only Toyota dealer that we would ever do business with is oaklawn Toyota winning service team, winning sales team, a no nonsense honest genuine deal!

I am giving this rating for anyone out there who "dreads" the car buying pressure when you purchase a vehicle. My wife and I went to several dealerships looking for an SUV. I was extremely impressed with the service my wife and I received from Marc Girlich, Rob Halderson and Marty Maggio at Toyoto Oak Lawn. In all of our years of purchasing vehicles, we have never had a smoother and friendlier experience. These men could not have made our car buying experience any better. From the time we walked into Oak Lawn Toyota there was never any "pressure" to buy, only great information and interest in what we wanted for our family's needs. I would highly recommend Marc Girlich and Rob Halderson at Oak Lawn Toyota to anyone looking for an enjoyable car buying experience.

Oak Lawn Toyota dealership came highly recommended. I was not disappointed in choosing Oak Lawn Toyota for excellent service in helping me with my recent find and purchase of the 2013 Toyota Corolla. I began this process months ago and Lauren was very polite and patient with waiting till I was ready to move forward towards a purchase. Steve was wonderful and helpful in quickly searching for my requirements in a car and easily help through the details of the purchase. I also highly recommend this dealership.

Oak Lawn Toyota is fabulous! As I shopped for a new car, I visited a lot of dealerships for over two months. Oak Lawn Toyota had the best employees - and the best product! - of any place I visited. Jason Stoit was my salesman, and he was so kind, knowledgeable, and honest. The first time I went to the dealership, he spent about three hours with me as I test drove cars. He patiently explained the features of the cars, and he gave me printouts of the specifications and prices for all the cars I was interested in (something no other dealer I visited did!). After two more visits back to Oak Lawn Toyota, I bought a 2013 Camry. Before I left with my new car, Jason spent so much time showing me how everything works. I highly recommend Jason. He's a great guy, and he made buying a car a fun experience! I was also impressed by the kindness and honesty of everyone else I met at Oak Lawn Toyota, including Bob Spee (salesman), new car manager Mark Girlich, and finance manager Dave Capelle. Dave made the whole finance process so easy and efficient. This is a small, family-owned business, and you can tell. Everyone there seems to love what they do, and they care about making the customers happy.

Jim Johnston Great experience today at Oak Lawn Toyota. Steve Hill, Mark Girlich, John Carnivele, and Dave Capelle worked as a team to provide Jackie and I with an enjoyable and stress-free buying experience. Normally I wouldn't travel four hours to look at or purchase a vehicle but I'm glad I made the exception today. I highly recommend OLT to anyone in the market for a new or certified used Toyota.

Forthright and not pushy
I am a disabled veteran and I found everyone very accomadating and concerned without making me feel uncomfortable. The buying experience was without pressure, we were allowed time to think and to ask question (an we had a lot of questions). We were not pressed to buy extras, but we were informed of the down side if we did not consider the discussed extras, it was our decision. We would not hesitate to buy another car from Steve Barrix and this dealership...

When I took my car in for an oil change in June and November, I was told that I needed a new cabin filter. When I told the associate that I had had one a few months prior, he could only say ‘oh’ . This leads me to believe that either it hadn’t really been done before, or that was just proof that services are offered that are not needed just to make money.

Best Sales consultant ever
Steve is the greatest, we have purchased 4 car from him in the last 15 years, no haggling, no playing games, no funny business. He straight when it comes to the facts and doesn't play around, he makes you feel as if you have been knowing him all of your life!!! He make purchasing a car an easy experience. Thanks Steve!!!!!

Best Sales Team!
I purchased my Highlander Limited on April 21st, I had the very best experience from start to finish! Steve Barrix walked me through ever step of the purchase process! He listened to what I was looking for, showed me all vehicles that I wanted to see, pointed out the features and sold me on the Limited. Ron in aftermarket and accessories took care of all of my requests! Above and beyond great service. He had my remote start installed exactly when promised, showed me how to operate it and I was on my way! The finance process was amazing, (We requested Marty to handle our financing since we’ve know him for several years) To say that financing my vehicle was painless is absolutely true. Marty explained all the warranties that I wanted to add and how they would benefit me. I told him where I was comfortable with my payments and he made it happen! And I finally was able to meet the owner Ronnie, what a pleasure to talk to him while my paperwork was being processed. Thank You so much OakLawn Toyota, we will forever be your customers??

Best Car Purchase Experience Ever!
I purchased a 2018 Toyota 4Runner-TRD Off Road from Oak Lawn Toyota. The Internet Sales Manager, Vianey Reyes, was readily available by telephone/email to answer questions and set up an appointment for viewing the vehicle, A+++ customer services. The Sales Consultant, Steve Barrix, went above and beyond to make sure I purchased the unit I was most comfortable with. He gave me suggestions and his advice, but was in no way pushy what-so-ever. Buying a car from him was a great experience, the process was quick, professional and absolutely painless! We all know how painful buying a car could be but Steve and the Oak Lawn team will change that perspective. I would recommend Steve Barrix to anyone who is looking for a new or used vehicle.

I had the feeling I was being ripped off
2nd time with service Dept., info given, put into computer and told, 1st time, no service necessary, but the next day service taken care of. 2nd time told to sign invoices, cost around $200, told rep about plan I had paid for,.rechecked and told no cost, Cashier asked for $21, rep removed but before he suggested a brake flush for $141...This is a lease that is up in December......many frustrations dealing with Oak Lawn Toyota

A new experience with an old issue
I was referred to Oak Lawn Toyota by a cousin who has purchased over 3 vehicles from this dealership. He swears by them, but because my experiences with car purchases have not been as pleasant, I am suspicious of salesman and their tactics. However, from my intro to Steve B. to my engagement with the aftermarket manager Rob, my suspicions continued to melt away. They both were very knowledgeable about their products and operation, but what gets me more than anything is the attentiveness to customer service. More importantly was the price, which was suitable and comfortable to live with. Every encounter I had was pleasant and exceptionally helpful. I would easily without reservation recommend this dealership and staff to my business and personal family. Thank you for your help
Jun 08, 2015
Fun and easy
I would definitely recommend Steve Barrix. He was awesome to deal with. Didn't pressure me into buying something I couldn't afford. Didn't make me feel bad or belittle me. He was very pleasant to deal with. He made me feel like I was car shopping with a good friend. He took the time to put me in the right car. He took the time to teach me about the car and show me different features. He set me at ease and gave me piece of mind. It was by far the BEST car buying experience I have ever had. I would and have recommended Steve to everyone I have talked to. My mother and father both bought cars from Steve and they recommended me to him and I will be forever thankful that they did. He is great! Dave Capelle did my financing and he was very good and very easy to deal with too. He was very friendly and helpful. This has been the BEST car buying experience ever!!!!! I know I said it already but I just can't get over how great it was. Thanks.
May 29, 2015
Finally a salesman who is NOT pushy!
I would recommend Steve Barrix and would agree with others that there was no pressure in buying a vehicle while working with him. This is one of the top reasons why I purchased my vehicle from Oak Lawn Toyota. I visited with other Toyota dealerships and was completely turned off by their aggressiveness and lack of customer service. I do not like to feel pressured into anything, especially signing for a vehicle. I appreciate Steve’s professionalism, friendly and relaxed personality. Thanks Steve for not being pushy!

Low pressure car purchase
On April 22 we traded in our 2002 & 2009 Camrys ( 2 cars no longer needed) & bought a brand new 2015. Our salesperson was Steve Barrix from whom we have purchased our last several cars over a long period of time. It was a very good experience as it has always has been with OL Toyota & Steve. We were not pressured & were given fair prices on our 2 trade ins & on our 2015 purchase. Steve was patient with us & considerate of our needs. We also have taken our cars over these many years to the service department for regular maintenance work. They, like everyone at OL Toyota, have been so friendly & helpful. We especially like John from the service department. We highly recommend Oak Lawn Toyota, Steve Barrix, & John from the service department.
Mar 15, 2015
Best EXPERIENCE with this Carlot by far!!!!
If we could put more stars up we would. I can't believe how welcome Steve and his place made us feel welcome and not pressured to buy. We would HIGHLY recommend them to our friends and family any day. WE ARE SO HAPPY WITH HOW WE WAS DEALT WITH AND LOVE OUR PURCHASE!!!! When ever time comes to look or buy another car or truck we know where to go!!!
Feb 14, 2015
The Best Experience
I just purchased a 2015 Toyota Corrolla and I could not be happier! Steve Barrix made this experience so pleasant and he found me EXACTLY what I wanted within my budget. He worked hard to find me a great reliable car that's good in the snow, great mileage, awesome radio for my Ipod, and a SUN ROOF! Thanks Steve! I would definately recommend Oak Lawn Toyota!
Feb 11, 2015
Friendly, no pressure zone!!
This was my 1st time buying a car COMPLETELY on my own. Everyone that I talked to during my experience was nothing but pleasant. When it came down to dealing with my salesman, Mr. Barrix, he was nothing but friendly and completely no pressure. He gave me time to think, review, and look at other cars on the lot that were in my range of purchase. Could not have gone smoother or more stress free!! A++++ I even met the owner who is a sweet older gentleman with a grin that will brighten your day!

New car purchase
Steve was awesome, he had everything ready to go and entire process was smooth. I did not have a lot of time as I was meeting my husband and had to get to work and he made sure I was out of there on time
