Lighthouse Buick GMC Reviews
L
Wonderful shopping experience. Had been looking for a few months for a vehicle. They were the one and only car dealership that asked me what I was looking for, as far as features, besides my budget range. While other places were trying to get me in vehicles in my price range, without regard to my preferences, just to make a sale. Thank you, Joel, and everyone at Lighthouse, for listening to me and finding my perfect match! Couldn't be happier😊
Thank you Layle. We want to serve you and everyone well.

Lighthouse was and amazing and caring place to buy a vehicle. Brian was an outstanding salesman who truly cared, and went above and beyond. John had great customer service and kept in with me as needed. Kaleb the technician worked hard to beat the time clock and get a car ready to go before expected. Jim the driver was very courteous and explained any information as needed. All around this was a great place to buy a vehicle, and everyone there did an outstanding job!
Justin. Our team is working hard to serve you well every time. God bless you.

Called Keith Edelman on a whim to get a new truck. Trucks are very hard to come by right now however Keith was able to find one for us right away. We have never been to Lighthouse Buick GMC, but we will definitely be back when we are ready for our next vehicle. Very helpful and friendly staff. No pressure. The whole process start to finish took only about 2 hours and that includes driving the truck prior to making our decision. We are 70 miles from here but definitely worth the drive. We will refer others.
Laura, thanks for your words. A referral from you to your friends is a huge blessing to us. We appreciate it.

Matt Grimm was excellent to work with, he was very transparent during the entire process. He made the whole experience very fluid especially when it came time to take delivery. All documents and financing were in order when I came to pick up my new truck, I was in and out in minimal time. He set me up with a personal service advisor for my future maintenance needs. He and the Lighthouse team are completely committed to the customer making the experience superior. Thank you!
Thank you for your business and for the kind review Richard. We appreciate your business.

If anybody is looking for a car I would highly recommend Steven Buchanan at lighthouse in Morton. I had an excellent experience with him and he was great to work with! It was the Saturday before Easter Sunday and I was in need of a new vehicle because my current one went out. I reached out to another dealership who I used before and after multiple attempts all day to have some assistant me in getting one I did not hear back from anyone. My sister recommended that I contact lighthouse who she had a great experience with. It was 30 min before close but I went ahead and just sent a message online inquiring about a car. I honestly did not expect anyone to get back with me but they did. This young man took the time to get in touch with me while they were closing. Most dealerships would not have went that extra mile especially with the holiday. After our conversation he promised to follow up with me on Monday and that is exactly what he did. First thing Monday morning I received a phone call, no hastle, he sent everything to me and within a couple hours I was good to go! It was that easy. So stress free! Lighthouse was so welcoming and so focused on their customer care. Shout out to Pam, Brett Miller, and again Stephen Buchanan for the amazing experience! I am very happy to make a deal with them and would definitely consider them again in the future.
Aubhrey, we appreciate your nice words. We want to serve everyone well. See you around.

So, I did a search for a specific truck and LIGHTHOUSE Buick GMC had it! We entered our info on the weekend and was contacted Monday morning by Angie. She was awesome and scheduled our visit to Lighthouse to meet up with Keith. He took over and I gotta say, we had a great time, a fun and easy buying experience all the way through, ending up in the finance office with Brett! We talked all the way home, what a great time we had and how much fun it was, Seriously! Bottom line, my wife and I got the truck (GMC AT4) we wanted, but the overall experience was unbelievable and we feel we met and made some wonderful new friends today. Thank you to Angie, John, Keith and Brett! -Tom & Nora Klein, Springfield, IL
Tom and Nora, we appreciate your trust in our team. Happy trails. :)

This is not our first car purchase with Lighthouse but it is our first “new” car purchase. From the first encouragement from Sabrina to just “check out” a new car to our helpful and supportive salesman Jon Tharp, I don’t think our experience could have been any better. Jon is so knowledgeable and answered every single question! In full disclosure, our son was a salesman at Lighthouse for many years so this was our first purchase without him…..same great experience! Lighthouse is the dealership to go to if anyone wants to be treated like “family!”
Thank you for your business, and for the friendship with your family Danelle. We hope you enjoy your vehicle.

Lighthouse Buick GMC Collision Center did an outstanding job on my 2020 Silverado. Would recommend anyone to use them.
Thank you Tyler.

This was one of the best car buying experiences I've had. Met with Jeremy not knowing exactly what we wanted. He spent time with us trying out 4 different vehicles. He was laid back but informative. After test driving a couple other options elsewhere, ended up coming back. Jeremy worked with me on the final price and purchase details in advance so we were able to pop back in for relatively quick paperwork, a big help with 2 younger, active kids. The typical after-market options and extended warrantee were offered during the final paperwork, similar to what you get at every dealer, but it was a short overview presentation without the pushy hard sell that I really hate getting at other places. Overall great experience and this will be the first place I come for my next vehicle.
Thank you, Phil, for recognizing that we are trying to do things very different here. We want to be easy to work with and hassle free.

Stephen Buchanan did a great job selling us our (new to us) Camaro. Great communication, friendly staff, and a pleasurable no-pressure experience. I typically can’t stand car shopping, but this experience was one of the best I’ve had. Also, a great business with true family values—very refreshing.
We appreciate your business Allen. Thank you for the shoutout to Stephen, and for the review!

We love shopping at Lighthouse! We met Dane in 2014. We were trying to find a Buick dealer and a salesman we could trust after Heritage Buick closed in Peoria. We went to other Buick dealers in the area and found a home at Lighthouse! We enjoy seeing and working with Dane from the the start. With the Camaro and Corvette we just purchased, we have purchased 5 vehicles from Lighthouse since 2014. Dane is great. We fully trust what he tells us. We have a great connection. We met Loren and he is always helpful with our parts and accessory needs. We share fishing stories with him and enjoy seeing pictures of his family as it grows! Everyone at Lighthouse is very friendly and helpful! Customer service is a top priority. We have also developed a connection with Trevor. He helped us with our 2018 GMC truck purchase when Dane was busy. Alway great to talk to him too!! We have no reason to shop anywhere else. Here is our most recent purchases!
Thank you for purchasing your Chevrolets and GMCs from us. We appreciate your loyalty.
M
Communication was excellent and they were wonderful in having a mechanic ride with me to get the car to “fail” or act up so they could see what I was telling them was wrong. I appreciate they don’t dismiss me as a dumb woman and took the time to actually listen to what I was hearing. It resulted in us finding the problem and the mechanic being able to diagnose it correctly! I truly appreciate this family owned dealership and their level of respect for their customers!!
Mary, we are glad you are part of the lighthouse family.
P
As soon as we got out of our car that Saturday we were greeted, and introduced to Trevor our salesman, Trevor did an amazing job walking us through the whole process, this is the fastest thing I've ever bought a car from any dealership in Central Illinois, there's no sitting around for 5 or 6 hours waiting for individuals to talk to one another it was done quickly sufficient and professionalism a wonderful experience, I will be retiring here in about 8 to 10 months and I will sell my 2018 ram truck to lighthouse that's the goal. Thank you so much from Paul and Anita Hyatt
Thank you for the kind words and for your business Paul. We appreciate you.

Brady used professionalism and answered all my questions that I had. He even brought the vehicle to me to look at because I was unable to drive at that time due to a procedure I just had. Light House went above and beyond anything I could have imagined. The paperwork literally took under 20 minutes. You can sure tell that the employees are like family. I would definitely consider purchasing another vehicle at Light House. This is mainly due to how Brady presented himself. And we even got a cinnamon coffee cake! Thank you Light House! And thank you Brady Vannaken!!
Brady and our team say "thank you". We appreciate you.
J
Lighthouse was great to work with! From our first test drive to finishing up the financing it was an easy experience without feeling any pressure to make the sale. Thanks to the entire team at lighthouse and our salesman Brian!
Thank you Jordan. We appreciate you.
B
Everyone at Lighthouse was professional and accommodating. They provided excellent service, were respectful and informative, and made extra effort to make sure all my questions were addressed. I would definitely purchase from them again, and recommend them to anyone.
Thanks you Ben. We appreciate you.

A short time ago I started looking for a specific truck. A friend of mine had done business at Lighthouse and was very pleased with his experience. I got ahold of Keith Edelman and from their he found a truck to look at. We exchanged messages and calls for a couple of days. I finally decided to set up a time to meet with him and made the 80 mile drive. The whole experience from the 1st time walking through the door to when we finished up and completed the deal was absolutely amazing. Such a great experience and the staff was very accommodating. I will definitely be back again. Thank you Keith Edelman for all of your help!
Thank you Sean, for your kind words and for trusting Keith and Lighthouse to do business with!
T
Stephen was great. Made it so smooth and easy. By far the easiest time buying a truck. Would recommend lighthouse Buick to everyone and ask for Stephen. Thank you again
Thank you for making Lighthouse the place and Stephen the person to do business with. We appreciate you Tiffany!
F
Matt was great to work with. He kept us updated on the progress of our new car request. He was very patient explaining all the features in the car to a couple of seniors!
Thank you for the kind words Frances. We appreciate your business.
M
Ordered/Purchased new Yukon, as a first time buyer from this dealer I can’t say enough good things about the process. Dan was in constant contact, super professional and always had our best interest. I won’t purchase from anywhere else!! Go visit Dan at lighthouse!
Dan and everyone here says "thank you" and "congratulations".
A
We had such a warm, wonderful experience when we bought our Escalade in 2021 with Jake, when we started looking again this year we were thrilled to find another great vehicle through Lighthouse and get to work with great people again. Their hospitality is incredible!
Thank you for the kind review! We are thrilled that the team delivered an incredible experience!
L
I needed a van to carry my mobility scooter. They were able to get me a slightly used one for a price I could afford. With my trade in car, the process was quick and painless. Thank You Joel for all your help.
Thank you for trusting us with your business Larry. We Appreciate you.
L
Thank you so much for all your help Stephen Buchanan, you replied to me quickly, and very honest and informative. I would definitely be recommending this dealership to my family and friends. This is the best experience I’ve had with any dealer.
Lucas, we are grateful that you chose to do business with us.
M
Great experience, as always. Trevor and Joel took great care of us throughout the process. Couldn't be happier with our new vehicle for our growing family!
J
GMC Terrain test drive went amazing, and it was so smooth. I was set and left with exactly what I wanted quickly. Very clean, very professional, and such nice people. I'm extremely happy with my purchase.
Thank you for trusting us for your vehicle needs. We hope you love your new Terrain.

After some time and reflection, I'm going to update my review. I'm not intending to be cruel, but I think a fair and honest review of my experience is warranted. Lighthouse is an OK dealership, but I found most practices to be the same as any other dealership. When I purchased in January, masks were still required. While my wife and I wore our mask, our salesperson never once even offered to put one on. I don't want this to be a mask debate, but rather, just common courtesy for someone in a sales position. Several other dealerships I visited, would put a mask on when they saw a masked customer approach. I wish lighthouse would have shown me that courtesy. When we arrived we were provided a folder which included a printout of a carfax report. The report indicated a sunroof inspection at some point in the past. I was concerned of a potential leak-seemed like an odd carfax entry. I just wanted the dealership to pour a 5 gallon bucket or two on top of the car. They offered to do that for $100. I wish they would have gone just a little above and beyond there, as I didn't think it was too much to request. I asked the salesperson for a copy of the service inspection so I could know all aspects of the vehicle condition. I simply wanted to know how much brake pad I had, and things like that. Salesperson indicated he would send the next day. I never received. I wish folks would follow through on their promises. Finally, within days of purchase, I noted a smell and heat coming from one wheel. I did know that lighthouse had replaced rotor and pads on this wheel while in inventory. I took it in and they found the caliper was bad and so was the brake hose. They fixed it for me under their 50/50 warranty. While that was nice, I feel like this existed prior to purchase and should have been found in their initial inspection, at least the hose. While their 3 mo warranty is great if something unforeseen breaks, I truly believe that fixing things that should have been caught in an inspection which they missed pre delivery, even on a used car, would be a nice gesture. They replaced the rotor so clearly they had inspected those brakes. I wish they would have admitted the miss and made it right. While in the entirety I'm not satisfied, I will mention their folks are pleasant, and the loaner they provided for the 6 days they had my car is a nice perk. This was my second purchase here, but I won't intentionally look to buy here again like I had this time around.
Update: Dan, I've reached out to you multiple times and you haven't responded. We would be glad to serve you and resolve your issue and reimburse you for what you don't feel was fair. Bart Rinkenberger To everyone else reading this review: We are doing our very best to serve every customer every time and resolve any issues that customers present to us. May 2022: Dan, I just left you a message. I'd like to make these errors right for you. If you don't think you should have paid for the repairs, we will reimburse you. We know you are man of character. Bart Rinkenberger, GM.

Jeremy was excellent. He did not try to push anything, worked with me to help get the car I wanted. The entire staff was friendly and helped make the process as smooth as possible.
D
The service department at Lighthouse Automotive is the best in the area. We will more than likely buy our next car from Lighthouse due to the people working there. We love it!
Thank you Doug!
B
My name is Bob...As a general rule, I am not fond of the car buying experience, however, my time at Lighthouse Buick GMC on 2/15 was actually very pleasant! Brian in sales and Jim in Finance made the whole process extremely easy. They were both, knowledgeable, helpful, thorough, and genuinely kind and friendly! I will be looking for a second vehicle in 2022 and I honestly am looking forward to going back to Lighthouse! I have been using the Service Department for 4 years to fix my old "Clunkers" and i was pleased with how Kelly took care of me! So, I thought I would check out the Sales Area, and Brian and Jim did not disappoint!
Thank you Bob and Katherine! We appreciate your business and the kind review!
D
Matt Grimm at lighthouse is the best to work with. The best service and the best prices. Absolutely the best car dealer in central illinois.
Thanks Dena for your review!
B
Just had a 10 star experience at Lighthouse GMC. Keith was AMAZING! The team got us in and out quickly for my dream truck. I would definitely drive the 3 + hrs one direction again!! Thank you!!!
Thank you for your business and the kind words Betty. We appreciate your business.
M
Brian helped me get in a great vehicle at a great price. No back and forth haggling and spent a total of about 30 minutes total. I saw the vehicle online, scheduled a test drive, and went back a couple days later to complete the purchase. These guys focus on customer service and it shows. If you are looking for a dealership with a different experience and feel, give these guys a shot.
Thank you for your kind review Mike. We appreciate your business and your review.
D
Even though the original vehicle we put a hold on wasn’t available as soon as we wanted, Jake and the team at Lighthouse GMC helped us find a similar vehicle that met all of our needs. The helpful information provided and attentiveness shown helped make our car buying experience a great one.
Daniel, Thanks for adapting in these crazy times. :)
J
Everyone we met was friendly, helpful, and courteous. They treated us more like family than customers. I cannot think of even a small incident that was negative. I also enjoyed the way they worked together to make sure your experience was pleasant and seamless. They took time to explain not only the process but about points I needed to know about the car. I have been at other dealerships that I enjoyed but none came up to what we experienced at Lighthouse. Thanks.
Thank you Joe. We hope you come back soon. God bless you.

10 out of 10 for customer service. I oversee a portfolio of Marriott hotels and every moment of my interactions with the service department reminded me of a hotel check in, complete with valet and complimentary beverages. As I waited in the lounge area, I noticed every single employee acknowledge every customer in passing in a friendly and welcoming manner. I felt right at home. I was given detailed inspection report and felt satisfied with the experience. I have owned new Mercedes, Jaguar, Volkswagen, Dodge, Chrysler, and Chevrolet. This was the first GMC vehicle I’ve had, and the first time I’ve had service at this dealership. Out of all the dealerships and experiences I’ve had in the past, this dealership does everything correctly and gives the impression they really care about their customers experience.
Dan, Thank you for the nice words. We spend a lot of time learning about customer service from your industry and are trying to be 5 star every single time. Your review helps us know that we are doing a few things right. :)

Buying a car from Joel at Lighthouse Buick was a joy and a breeze! I found the car I was interested in for my daughter online and arranged with Joel to drive it. From our first contact, Joel was friendly and helpful. While buying the car, I never felt like I was being rushed or pushed by anyone. After I bought the car and my daughter drove it a bit, I noticed a couple little cosmetic issues that probably should have been caught on pre-inspection. Although I bought the used car "as-is" there was never any doubt than Lighthouse and Joel were going to stand behind their vehicle and take care of the issues. A couple parts were ordered and installed and everything was great after that. If you're considering buying a new or used car, you should definitely stop by and talk to Joel at Lighthouse. He'll take great care of you!
Thank you TC. We believe that challenges either strain a relationship or make them stronger. We are glad that these challenges helped solidify our relationship. We appreciate you and are glad we worked it out.

These guys are awesome!! I took my daughter to Lighthouse last year to buy a used Mazda CX-5. The vehicle was beautiful and as described, but the best thing was our experience. The people here are so easy to work with. I really can’t say enough about their professionalism and courteous treatment of their customers. We live in Springfield, and it is well worth the drive to Morton to check out Lighthouse!
Thank you for your kind words. We appreciate the trust that your family has placed in our business. We look forward to seeing you again.
R
Great place to do business! They are a no pressure dealership! They will do anything they can to help you find exactly what you want and what works best for you! I felt bad because I had kept changing my mind on what I wanted but Joel was there for me 100%. I won’t buy a vehicle from anyone/anywhere else! They treated us like family!
Thank you Rhi. We are doing our best to serve you well and be your favorite dealer.
E
Great place to buy a vehicle - everyone was friendly and helpful, prices and negotiating were better than expected! Special thanks to Jeremy and Brett for helping me find what I want and getting me on my way in a new ride!
Thanks and enjoy your new ride. :)
K
Dan was awesome we had a issue come up with our trade in that was on our end and he was excellent on getting it figured out with us and had a lot of pateince with us ! Would definitely go back and refer people to the lighthouse !
Thanks for letting us resolve your issue. :)

My husband and I bought a truck through Stephen from GMC Lighthouse! It was a great experience and super fast. We highly recommend them.
McKenzie, thank you for your business and for the kind review.
L
As always, good service and got the Canyon of my dreams. Keith Edelman is a fantastic person and salesman. Can’t go wrong dealing with Keith.
You are correct. :) Thank you.
D
Had a great experience. They were able to deal with every concern. Jon Tharp was excellent as a salesman. Even delivered car directly to my house. They were upfront and honest with everything. I would recommend any one looking to buy a car to go to Lighthouse.
Thank you David, we appreciate you taking the time to leave us this kind review. Enjoy your new vehicle!
K
We had a great experience purchasing our 2022 Envision from Brian M. He made sure we know all the important details of our car, as well as the safety features of OnStar. I would totally recommend him and Lighthouse to anyone looking to buy a vehicle.
Thank Kelly. Brian loves serving clients like you, especially those who have Buicks and Onstar. :)
E
From beginning to end, lighthouse Buick and GMC was top notch! They went above and beyond to satisfy my needs. They were accommodating and delivered my car in perfect condition. They offered a loaner car while they took care of some minor cosmetic issues and were in constant communication with me every step of the way. Every employee that I worked with was nice and never once felt pushy! I would highly recommend lighthouse to anyone looking for a new vehicle! We will definitely work with them with any of our future car buying experiences!
Thank you for trusting us with your business Elizabeth!

Just wanted to share the elite service proviced by Lighthouse Buick GMC during our purchase of a new to us 2012 GMC Yukon. This vehicle was ready for our arrival. Jeremy Wright was an over the top saleman at this location presenting outstanding communication and a joyful attitude. Very professional and informative was Brett Miller, your loan manager. The confidence we experienced in covering our financial needs was perfect. Our whole experience at Lighthouse was an amazingly blessed experience form our first contact all the way through to the special gift from The Confectionery. I am just sorry we can only rate you at a 5 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 when you earned so much more. Thank you! Robbie and Michele Chillicothe, Illinois
Thank you Robbie and Michele. We appreciate that you took the time to share your experience in detail. We will keep doing our best for you.
B
This is the fifth vehicle I have purchased at Lighthouse and Jon Tharp was the most efficient and knowlegeble salesman that we have ever had and it’s not even close.
Thank you Bill. We appreciate your loyalty over the years. We enjoy it when you come around.
L
Wonderful experience. They arranged to have someone bring the car to us for a test drive(2 hour trip one way) and Dan was a huge help.
Thank you for choosing to do business with us.
K
By far best dealership around! Thank you Joel Brown and team for a very smooth and fair car buying experience!!
Krissa, thank you for being fair on your end too. We appreciate you.
J
We recently purchased a new GMC Acadia and had a fantastic buying experience at Lighthouse Automotive. Quinn was extremely attentive to our needs and knowledgeable. He was so patient in answering our questions and we would highly recommend him to others. Everyone at Lighthouse was so friendly and professional, we had a terrific experience from start to finish.
Thank you for your business Jane!

The Envision that I just purchased from Lighthouse is the sixth vehicle I have purchased from them. Keith was my salesman. I had very specific details about the exact Envision that I needed. He worked tirelessly to find just the right one and my goodness it is just perfect. He made all of the right phone calls needed to be sure that I will be able to dinghy tow it behind my motor home. Keith also provided me a vehicle at no cost to me to drive until he was able to find my Envision. My entire experience from the door greeter to everyone I came in contact with at Lighthouse went far above my expectations. I will always go to Lighthouse for my vehicle needs. Thanks Keith! I am so thankful!
Thank you for your loyalty and for the review!
K
Fantastic service! Has made buying vehicles a joy. Keith knows what we want and goes beyond our expectations ! He really cares and gets us the best package that fits our needs. Great experience, will do it again!!
Thank you Ken. That Edelman family is a great group of people.
J
Joel Brown was amazing! He put us in different cars so we could rule them out. He was upbeat, informative and felt more like a friend than a salesman. He really had our best interest in mind. We visited other dealerships and didn’t feel the same way. We felt pressured and had to demand to get our keys back. We already have a plan to visit Joel soon for another vehicle and I won’t hesitate to share our experience with anyone looking to buy, lease, or even have service done! Thank you Lighthouse and Joel Brown!
Thank you for trusting us with your business, and for leaving a review Jen!
R
Keith Edelman is the best car salesman I have ever worked with. I greatly appreciate his honesty and commitment to get me what I need. And Lighthouse as a full dealership is hands down the best dealer I have ever worked with. Every employee is willing to help in any way they can and it shows every time I walk in the door, whether it is to for an oil change or to buy a new truck I know I am going to get the best service around!!
Thank you for the business and for leaving a review.

Stephan is a great salesman to work with if you are looking for a vehicle! Highly recommended!
Thank you for the 5 stars and for your business Angie.
M
Jake was great to work with. He was attentive, understanding, and kind. Jim in the finance department was thorough and kind. I will definitely do business here again.
Thank you Mick.
s
The BEST car buying experience I have ever had! We weren’t there all day like we have been in the past at other dealerships. Jake, our salesman was awesome and everyone that works there really goes out of their way to make you feel welcome and help you with anything you need. Definitely would not hesitate to go back there!
Thank you for trusting us with your business Stephanie. Your business and review is appreciated!
D
This is definitely a 5 star customer service dealership! EVERYONE is so friendly and helpful. Jeremy Wright, our salesman went above and beyond to help in buying my vehicle. I had an item added and the service dept was prompt and helpful with all aspects. We will definitely recommend this dealership and be back for all our vehicle needs
Thank you Debra. We appreciate your business.
M
Just purchased a truck through Mr. Joel Brown. Hands down best buying experience. If you are in the market for a new vehicle I highly recommend giving them the opportunity to earn your business! You will not regret it. Thank you lighthouse crew.
Thank you Mitch. Joel and our team appreciate you.
B
10/10 recommend Stephen Buchanan at Lighthouse GMC! I can not say enough good things! After having a bad experience at another dealership, I walked in feeling defeated and disappointed. He was quick to turn that all around! He was determined to find me a car that made me excited and wanted to make sure that I was 110% satisfied! I couldn’t be happier with my new Equinox! Thanks again Stephen!
Thank you for your business and kind review Brittany. We are excited Stephan and the team provided a good experience!
j
We recently traded in our traverse for a new equinox and we could not have had better service. Brian was thorough, answered all questions we had promptly and took care of everything ahead of time and had it ready for us. Financing with Brett was an awesome experience also. It's not often you find a genuine team at a dealership that cares about the people they work with like the lighthouse team. We will definitely be back when we're ready to buy our next car. Great job Lighthouse
Thank you James. We appreciate your business.
D
This is the second truck that I have purchased at Lighthouse dealership. This is not like any other dealership. The minute you walk through the door you feel like you're at home. The buying experience was great. Jon Tharp is great to work with. Ruth keep in contact with me the whole time which was a great help. EXCELLENT SERVICE!!!!!! THANKS
Daryl, Thank you for recognizing that we are striving to serve well.
c
I just wanted to thank you (Jake, Ruth, and Jim) all again for such a pleasurable experience in buying the car for my son. He absolutely LOVES it! In all the years I’ve had with buying cars I’d have to say this was by far the best! It was my first experience with FaceTime calls and not being physically at the dealership. You all went above and beyond to make this easy, seamless and a great experience. Thank you Ruth for driving the car to us and replacing the key fob battery. That was awesome. The cinnamon roll was also very delicious! Even though you are not local, I will definitely keep you guys in mind for future vehicle purchases. Thank you all again so much!
Thank you!
R
Had another great purchasing experience at lighthouse! The last salesman I purchased with there had recently retired so I was set up with a young man named Stephen. Very energetic, and ready to go. He helped accommodat a test drive with my 2 year old with me by helping get my car seat from truck to truck. Highly recommend this place with their great sales associates and other employees. Jim was super happy to help answer all other questions I had regarding final paperwork and warranty. Thanks for the awesome deal on my new 2021 ram 1500 Laramie!!
Thank you for trusting us with your vehicle needs, Ryan. We appreciate your business.
S
We recently purchased our third vehicle from Lighthouse without even seeing it in person! That’s how much we trust them. We travel almost an hour each way to work with this business. They are kind, courteous, and efficient. You can be sure they are focused on selling quality automobiles at a fair price. They are straight shooters and make the car buying process simple. We won’t buy a vehicle from anyone else!
Thank you for driving the miles to do business with us Sydney! We appreciate your business and the kind words.
B
We happened upon Lighthouse by chance. We’d been looking for a quality used truck in the market. After some initial searches we found Lighthouse GMC. They had a great inventory on hand of used trucks and we found what we were looking for immediately. Matt was great and the whole team treated us like their only customers. We will be back for future vehicle purchases! It’s nice to find a dealership that knows the definition of integrity and character.
On behalf of Matt and everyone here, we say Thank You for trusting us!
m
This is the absolute best dealership we have ever purchased a vehicle from. I highly recommend stopping in! From walking in to leaving with our new truck was less than 2 hours. Our salesman Dan Vollmer went out of his way for us and we appreciate him. Thank you Dan and thank you Lighthouse Buick!
We thank you in return. God bless you, Marla.
M
This was our first purchase with Lighthouse. It was a great experience. We came from over 2 hours away to view the truck and they accommodated us by staying late. Brady was wonderful. If we are in the need for a vehicle in the future, we will look to Lighthouse first for sure.
We appreciate your business and trust.
G
Keith is a joy to work with each time I’m looking to buy a new truck. He’s knowledge of the GMC product line is unmatched. Most important, I know I can trust him to treat me honestly. Highly recommend Lighthouse Automotive and Keith Edelman for all your vehicle needs!
Keith likes you too!!! :)
R
Not only was the price of the car I bought at Lighthouse the best deal on Cars.com within a 200 mile radius, the staff was the least “car salesmen-like” I’ve ever dealt with. Jeremy and Jim were very straightforward and easy to work with, and I was shocked when they even filled the tank before handing over the car. Not even close—best dealership I’ve ever dealt with.
Thank you for your kind words Randy, we appreciate your business.

Dan Vollmer at Lighthouse Buick GMC was awesome! He made for an effortless purchase, allowed me to test drive my new GM as long as wanted to make sure it was the truck for me! Even came in on his day off to do the paperwork. Chose Dan and Lighthouse if your wanting to purchase a new GM or Buick- great customer service!

The amazing service I received after purchasing my 1st car from Lighthouse led me back to purchase my 2nd car from them. Absolutely outstanding. From initial contact to servicing of my vehicles, everyone I have worked with has gone above and beyond to make my experience a positive one. I highly recommend them to anyone purchasing a car or looking for service on their vehicle.
Thank you Paige!

My wife and I stopped in on a Saturday at about an hour before close with a certain vehicle in our sights. we asked for a test drive and Trevor got us on our way quickly. Once the test drive confirmed our desires, we arrived back at the store to ask them to draw up a purchase order with minutes left in the workday. Not once did I get any slight peak of displeasure from Trevor or Jim. I have dealt with numerous dealerships in past 10 years and never have I experienced the joy I felt with lighthouse. The only sadness and regret I feel is that I hadn't brought my business to them sooner. This family of individuals at Lighthouse leads by example and has set a new standard for dealers all over this area. Trevor, Jim and their team and technicians THANK YOU! I will not be looking elsewhere for our next vehicle. Would recommend 10/10 pro tip plan your trip and make time to spend with this group of good people
Wow Billy.... thank you for the nice words.

I saw an equinox on fb called over and talked to Jon to see if it was available for test drive made appt for 11am. Arrived and took Jon on test drive with me cause I wasn't familiar with the area. Loved the vehicle then made a deal that I was.very happy with then decided to trade mine in they gave me a great price for my car more than I expected 😀 while waiting for financing many employees stopped by desk to see if I needed refreshments or anything while I was,waiting. Sealed deal and financed they filled my new one up with gas and gas me a cinnamon roll coffee cake and I was on my way home by 230. I am very happy with everyone I came into contact with there. Definitely recommend them 👌
Diana, we appreciate your support and recommendation.

See you soon Brett.

Had another Great Experience at Lighthouse Automotive, Morton, IL today. I had no plans to buy a new car now. I called Keith Edelman yesterday about a problem with my 2018 Terrain. He told me about this 2021 Terrain that they just got in and did he have a deal for me. It was just unbelievable. I went to Test Drive it today and I bought it and brought it home with me. Thanks to the Lighthouse Automotive Team for getting this done so fast. I highly recommend Keith Edelman if you are looking for a new or used car or truck. Deb Rich Saunemin, IL
Thank you for the review Deb!

10/10. Jeremy was amazing. He did everything and more for us. My husband and I had just had a really bad experience somewhere else so I wasn't even really in the mood to look at another car but my husband insisted we atleast go look! From start to finish Jeremy was so upfront, and honest. Kept in great communication with us since we decided to go look so late. Thanks again Lighthouse and Jeremy for my very nice ride. I will definately be back for our daughters first car and anything in the future, highly recommend this team. PS Ruth is amazing. Great employee to have Lighthouse.
Thank you for the kind review Michelle! Thanks! We always want to hear back from our clients and we're glad you had such a positive experience with us! We look forward to your next visit!

had a good experience with lighthouse- I’ve been wanting to get out of my car for years and I really wanted a car with bells and whistles and Jearmy took care of all my needs and didn’t pressure me into something I did not want, we went back and fourth with bank getting a deal that’s in my budget but eventually we settled for a 2019 Nissan Altima SL with all the features and Even more then I expected, the downside Is the car had check engine light right after I bought it but lighthouse took care of it replaced the part causing it and while we was waiting for the part they kept me in loaners and took care of me and when the car was finished I got it drove it all over not a single problem and drives nice and smooth, out of hundreds of cars they sale it’s bound to happen one has an hick up that’s the nature of used cars but how they handled it shows their true colors and how customer focused they are, when Jearmy finally handed me my keys he gave me a huge cake treat and personally pumped me a full thing of gas I’ve been told dealerships don’t do that much anymore for new cars especially used cars but lighthouse stands out amongst the rest, I recommend them and I recommend Jearmy ask for him and tell him what u want in a vehicle he’ll hook you up also Jim in finance department sat down with me wasn’t pushy and walked me through stuff and didn’t try recommend useless things that wasn’t needed and when I asked him about Gap coverage and a little extra warranty he was able get it all in my budget, it took me a good half hour to an hour playing with calculator making sure I budget everything right and not spend way past my means and Jim was very patient and very understanding REALLY APPRECIATE THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE😁
Thank you for the kind words and for your business!

Another GREAT experience with Keith Edelman at Lighthouse Automotive. We have bought several vehicles over the years (probably 25 years) with Keith as our salesman, but I tell you he treats Lighthouse Automotive like it was his own, so much respect, knowledge, customer service, attention to detail and personable. That whole outfit at Lighthouse is just a class act when it comes to their customers. We drive 40 miles to have our vehicles serviced there. My husband and I just love our 2022 GMC Acadia.
Thank you for your kind words Mary! We appreciate your loyalty and appreciation for Keith and his and the teams expertise.

Best dealership in the Morton, Peoria and Pekin area. They treat you like family and go all the way they are the best if you have a problem contact them they will help
Robert, Thanks for your loyalty.

Everyone was very friendly and did what ever they could to make my visit a success. Thanks to everyone at Lighthouse Buick GMC. I actually enjoy going to Lighthouse, treated with dignity and respect I always feel like I'm part of the family. They always make you feel like they want you as a satisfied customer and not just out to make a profit. They truly follow their strategic values by the implementation of Biblical Principles. I will always go back to Lighthouse to purchase my vehicles, give them a try and I think you will too.
Thank you for the 5 star review Jack!

Keith Edelman has been our salesman for many years through many vehicles. He always makes trading and/or purchasing as seamless as possible! Jim Binegar in financing also is the best to work with! We highly recommend Lighthouse GMC, they are the only dealership if you need a GMC!!
Nancy. Nancy, thank you for your kind words and for trusting us. We will do our best to serve you for many years to come.

My husband bought a 2022 GMC Sierra truck and worked with Keith Edelman at Lighthouse Buick GMC. Keith was wonderful to work with especially during the process of connecting the truck to his phone. He, nor I, would have been able to do this without Keith's help and patience. What a process. Keith is a pleasant, positive and kind individual. It was great working with him and we are thankful for his expertise and helpfulness!
Thank you for recognizing that Keith is trying to serve his clients well.

Lighthouse was awesome with my recent vehicle purchase! Brady made everything easy painless and quick! Very happy with their business!
Brady and everyone else says thank you. :)

UPDATE: My son's car from our first purchase listed below is still on the road and doing well. It's been a good college vehicle on the hills of Iowa. I absolutely believe God led me back here to replace my totalled truck. I purchased a newer (2013) car from Brian on 23Nov19. Totalling a vehicle is a traumatic experience for anyone, and the last thing anyone needs is to follow that up with a bad buying experience. Brian and Jim made my time there about as stress free as it could be. None of the back and forth with managers and everything was above table and forthright. There were no surprises after the sale (with numbers or vehicle) and I felt at peace when driving my purchase off of the lot. They even helped with the extended warranty. Do yourself a favor and go see the folks at Lighthouse. 1ST POST: My son got a used car (2008) from Lighthouse that underwent their inspection process. The sales staff was extremely accommodating and helpful by not burying him in a high maintenance vehicle. They even drove the final paperwork 2 hours to our house to have signed! We've used the service department twice and they were very reasonably priced for a dealership. We will definitely shop there again.
Thank you for the review, and the 5 stars. We strive to treat others how we would like to be treated.

Very good people, very nice service, i really loved the warm welcome of the team and mostly how Brady helped me to go through and get the car, I seriously think I’ll get my second car from you….keep the good work LightHouse, you the best!!!
Thank you Fabrice. We hope you will do business here for many years to come.

Thank you Russell.

I recently traded my car in at Lighthouse Buick GMC and if I could give them ten stars I would have. I can’t say enough about the excellent customer service that I received before, during, and even after my trade. I have bought quite a few cars over the years but never have I had such a pleasant experience, I had told Ruth what I was looking to do a few weeks ago and she told me that she would call if something became available I really did not expect a call back but to my surprise she did and she gave me the time to think about the car she had for me no pressure then she put me in touch with Jon Thorpe and he did the numbers, and he gave me time to think again I never felt once that I was talking to a car salesman or dealership instead like friends Jon is such a super nice family oriented guy that went above and beyond, the offer for my car was well above what the other dealerships wanted to give me. The way everything was done I did not have to spend half a day at the dealership either, you can really tell that they all enjoy their jobs and people and I will never do business at a different dealership again, I will refer anyone I know that is looking for a vehicle to them. I usually don’t post but this time I had to , “well done guys “
Thank you for taking the time to write a thorough review. We appreciate how you placed your trust in our team.

I had a very good experience at Lighthouse. Upon arriving I was quickly introduced to Jake Knapp and told him the vehicle I was interested in. After a quick test drive and a discussion to work out the details and final price I was able finish the transaction. Friendly people, friendly service and friendly follow-up to make sure I was satisfied with my purchase. One of the better and more noteworthy truck shopping experiences I’ve had in my lifetime.
Thank you for buying your truck from us. We appreciate you.

Outstanding employees... always Friendly and helpful. Very pleased with my car!! Trevor was great!
Douglas, we think you are great.

It was a completely wonderful experience for me. This was my first time buying a vehicle from a dealership and I was nervous but everyone made me feel so comfortable and welcomed. The greeter was fabulous. Trevor was so understanding about me wanting to work with Keith. Keith was absolutely great. He was amazing at helping me be practical with my purchase as well as super excited. I absolutely love my Envision! Thank you everyone at Lighthouse.
Thank you for your business, and for leaving a review Paige!

Great experience from start to finish. I really put them to the test coming in on a Saturday afternoon with only an hour and a half before they closed. I set up an appt. online and the vehicle was ready to show when we pulled up. We were greeted with smiling friendly employees as soon as we entered the building. We met Jon Tharp, our salesman and he took great care of us. The while process only took a few hours, but they took their time, taking care of all the details. Staying late for us Lighthouse gave us a great trade in price and an awesome new (used) vehicle for the family. Highly recommend Lighthouse Buick GMC for your future new car needs!
Thank you for your review, and for the business Nivek!

As I began my search for a replacement of my hated 2021 4-runner (aka Japanese Tahoe) I discovered this peculiar dealership that appeared to be named after a structure built in it's very parking lot. Yes, you guessed it, a lighthouse. This lighthouse is not surrounded by vessel destroying rocks and rough waters, but instead by a sea of Buicks and GMC's. In my quest for a return to the creature comforts of an American suv I made evident to my salesman Jake that I was a common man with a commoner's budget. He pointed me in the direction of a used but mint 2017 Yukon Denali with the coveted 6.2L direct injection V8 and I immediately recognized the feeling of being back home. The paperwork end of the deal felt expedited compared to previous car purchases and we were quickly on to trading keys and getting the run down from Jake on the workings of the Denali's expansive interior, in which he was very fluent. As I was preparing to depart I carefully phrased a question for Jake as to make it seem my son was the one asking but it was in fact me that was curious as to how the lighthouse functioned. He informed me it was a simple electric lamp at the top and the dealership did not in fact employ a lightkeeper to continually maintain wicks and whale oil. Very interesting. In conclusion of my dealings with Lighthouse: Pros: Fast paperwork and not pushy on service contracts, paid my asking price for trade-in, pro animal rights by not burning whale oil in their lighthouse,salesman was knowledgeable of the powertrain and features of the Yukon. Cons: the lighthouse is not near a navigable body of water, many of their vehicles are equipped with adaptive cruise control.
Josh, your review is one of the best we've ever received. :) Thank you for bringing joy and happiness to our day today. Maybe someday we'll build a lake near the lighthouse so it's more authentic.
J
Jake was our salesman. He was awesome. Very helpful, nice, answered all questions about the car, & the kind of guy you’d want to hang out with for awhile. He added a personal touch to the car buying experience. I really think he is the same great guy on or off the sales floor. Jim in finance was great to work with as well. We all shared some stories. The whole team was great. Hospitality, & feeling welcomed is top notch. Will buy there again for sure when the time comes.
Thank you for your business and for the review!

Excellent transaction with good communication during the sales process long distance. They had a driver for my GMC Yukon deliver the vehicle to me in Windsor, Colorado. I would highly recommend should you find a quality vehicle. They replaced the tires, brakes, shocks and repaired a dent prior to closing the sale.
Thank you for your business and for leaving a review Holly!

Best car buying experience I have ever had! Keith Edelman was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. We received our full trade in value with no hassle and were able to decide on a vehicle with no pressure. We were in and out of the dealership quickly and appreciated that the process didn't take all day, especially with a newborn in tow. We love our new vehicle and would fully recommend Lighthouse Buick GMC and Keith Edelman.
Thank you for trusting us. Our goal is to give timely service every time.

I had a GREAT experience buying my used Sierra truck from Joel Brown at Lighthouse Buick. He was very helpful and wasn't pushy trying to make a sale. Very impressive. I highly recommend Lighthouse Buick GMC in Morton and Joe Brown. Thanks Joel for all your hard work and help. I'll be telling all of my friends to come see you when they need a vehicle Mike Carney
Thank you for your business Mike! We appreciate your kind words and for leaving a review!

I was amazed at his great the vehicle looked when we got it back! We had been using the SUV more like a truck and it was pretty darn dirty inside. Looked pretty close to new when they were done.
Deanna, Thank you for using our detail department to clean up your SUV.
K
Best car buying experience ever! We saw a used vehicle they had and made our deal online and over the phone. When we arrived, we were greeted by Jon. He was so nice and just seemed like such genuine person. He went over so many things with us about the car. He was so knowledgeable and even knew tow ratings for our used vehicle and was able to tell us what year they changed on our particular model. I have bought brand new cars before and asked about features just to have the salesperson tell me that I could find it in the manual.Jon went through programming OnStar and linked our phones for us as well as putting on our new plates in the windy cold weather. He stressed how important it is to them at Lighthouse Buick GMC to make us feel great about our choice in choosing them. They are proud to have repeat customers and generations of families who purchase their vehicles from them. At no time did we ever feel pressured, even when we dealt with Matt to go over warranty options. He also was so easy to be around. He explained everything thoroughly and answered all our questions. He even recommended a great place to eat since we were starving by the time we were heading out.We have told so many people about what a nice experience we had there.Having that no pressure sales approach and genuinely friendly people is what will bring us back here again.
Thank you for your kind review Kathy! We appreciate you, your family, and the business over the years!
