Shopping for a vehicle at Auto Concepts in Joliet, Illinois? Follow these steps to buy with confidence.
Pull the vehicle history report
Run a CARFAX or AutoCheck report using the VIN before you visit. Look for accident history, odometer rollbacks, and title brands like salvage or flood. Ask Auto Concepts if a report is available for any listing.
Take a thorough test drive
Drive on both city streets and the highway. Accelerate hard. Brake firmly. Listen for any clunks, vibrations, or warning lights. Test the AC, heat, and all electronics during the drive.
Inspect for hidden wear
Check for uneven panel gaps, mismatched paint, or overspray — signs of past bodywork. Push on each corner of the car to test the shocks. Look underneath for frame damage, fluid leaks, or rust.
Get a pre-purchase inspection
Have a trusted mechanic inspect any used vehicle before you buy. A $100–$150 PPI can uncover issues that save you thousands. Ask Auto Concepts if a third-party inspection is permitted.
Negotiate the out-the-door price
Focus on the total out-the-door price, not the monthly payment. Understand every fee on the sales contract before signing. Dealer add-ons like paint protection and VIN etching are negotiable at Auto Concepts.
Auto financing is competitive. A little preparation before visiting Auto Concepts in Joliet, Illinois puts you in a stronger position.
Typical Loan Terms
48 to 72 months is most common. Shorter terms cost less in total interest.
Down Payment
10% to 20% down reduces your monthly payment and improves your loan terms.
Pro Tip
Get pre-approved by your bank before visiting Auto Concepts — it gives you a rate to compare against dealer financing.
Get pre-approved by your bank or credit union before visiting Auto Concepts. It takes 15 minutes and gives you a rate benchmark. Dealer financing can sometimes beat bank rates — but only if you have a number to compare against.

Mike sold us a reliable and fairly priced Hyundai Azera 2012. We did our due diligence and paid a mobile mechanic to come and inspect the vehicle on the lot before moving forward with the purchase and it all checked it out. We had our regular mechanic check it out after the purchase and he was very impressed with the vehicle and the price as well. My mom and I are very happy with our experience working Mike and Auto Concepts! Thank you
At first everything seemed ok , we were allowed to look at one of the cars we were interested in. They had multiple cars for sale in the lot and we liked 2 more we seen but when we asked to look at the inside it was an immediate NO, if you have all the cash on hand then we can start a deal ??? Like are you out your mind??? You mean to tell me that people should be ready with cash n start a deal just because you say so ??? Not even letting us look at them and decide for ourselves if we like them or not??? This place was a Total Joke and waste of time... glad we left immediately and went to a different place the same day. We found the same SUV we wanted hrs after without anyone Rushing us or demanding to see the $$ first.
Hello, good afternoon, let you know that the F-250 2008 Disel Super Duty, is in the mechanical workshop 3rt time up the pay price $8,500 for the reason that the vehicle does not run anymore, I do not know what is wrong with it, but this is not good, I can not continue with this anymore. You will not be held responsible for this, I know, I will talk to my lawyer to see what he says Don't Recommend your Truck Sales Company 😠
This truck is the biggest mistake of my life... Had the truck since December and hasn't ran for 2 consecutive weeks since buying it The day I bought it it broke down 8 miles from dealer and was told as is means as is Ford is ready to kick this thing out of their shop they're so sick of getting it towed in (Response to general reply)....3/3/16 What's your "general sales manager" going to tell me? He's the one that told me if it's a plugged fuel filter or something small he'd cover it Wrong size batteries Fried ecm day I bought it Leaking injectors Drivers head gasket Wrong passenger side mirror and cut wiring harness with frayed wires inside the door Which of those issues would he like to discuss first? Edit 11/15/21: This business is paying for 5 star feedback from a company that computer generates them off fake names, buyers BEWARE!!!!
I Purchased a 2011 Kia Soul for my daughter and she is very pleased with it. Carl was very helpful when providing information and the vehicle was fairly priced. Just from looking at the cars on his lot and by talking with him, you can tell that he sells quality vehicles and doesn't give that desperate used car salesman gimmick that Ive been running into while used car shopping. I left very confident with my purchase and feel like the vehicle will be safe and reliable for my daughter. I will be back to buy my sons car when it's his turn and will recommend Auto Concepts to anyone looking!
