Value Your Trade Online in Rockford, IL
Before, you had to set some time aside and come into the dealership to receive an appraisal on your current vehicle, however, now you can get the process started from home! With our Value Your Trade resource, youāll know what your automobile is worth in just a few steps. If you have questions as youāre tackling the process, just give us a call at Anderson Kia on Perryville!
Preparation for Exchange
Prior to handing us the keys to your current set of wheels, youāll want to do some preparation to get the best trade result. To start, wipe down the surfaces inside the cabin and do a full vacuum of the seats and carpeting. Then, you might consider getting a detailing or a car wash to make your vehicle more attractive to buyers. Along with that, make sure that all service and maintenance is up to date. If you think you might need an oil change or tire rotation, just visit us! Last but not least, have all of your important paperwork handy, such as service records, Bill of Sale, title, and registration because you'll need these when stopping by. Feel free to reach out to us if you want to know what other documents are necessary!
Value Your Trade Online
If you head to the top of the screen and select either the New or Used tab, you will find the Value Your Trade link in the drop-down. After that, we ask that you provide us with some information about your vehicle and yourself. For more of an accurate appraisal, feel free to include a video of the interior and exterior and some photos if you would like. If you want to let us know about certain features that your car comes with to assist with the process, go for it! Before you receive your value and finish the steps, let us know which vehicle you would like to possibly own next. Once you receive your amount, youāre free to save it and come to it later if you choose to.
Benefits of Working With Us
You always have the option of creating an online or newspaper advertisement to find a buyer for your vehicle, but this could take some time. Once you do finally find a potential customer, you will still have to negotiate and price, which could prolong the process of getting rid of the car. Instead of going through these steps, you can let us take care of it. Plus, our Value Your Trade resource is available to you any day of the week, so you can begin the process when you want to. Along with that, you can search our inventory and see the models that we carry to help you find the one you would like to drie next. Also, our Payment Calculator will let you construct a monthly payment just by crunching some numbers.
We invite you to value your trade online in Rockford, IL, today! If you need any assistance as you go through each step, our representatives at Anderson Kia on Perryville are just one call away. We hope to hear from you!

“ I was looking at an Eclipse Cross however ended up with this beauty instead & couldnāt be more pleased w/my experience working with the Anderson Team in Rockford, IL. I started my car buying journey while visiting my son & his fiancĆ©e in KC, MO. Goal was to purchase a new 2024 vehicle for myself & leave the 2017 SUV with my son, so they have more room for my new grandchild š I went to a well-known dealership in KC; to remain nameless, the salesman was good to work w/however itās the finance manager who dissuaded me from proceeding further in that moment. I told them I needed to think about this overnight & thankfully so. I needed to do more research & saw the same vehicle I was thinking about purchasing in KC, the Eclipse Cross, was $4K cheaper back home in Rāford. I submitted a contact form to Anderson Mitsubishi to inquire about the numbers I saw online & asked if they were real numbers or just numbers to lure customers to the dealership. I received a call from Bill Palmeri who shared āwhat you see advertise on our website is what youāll getā & he was not kidding. Bill introduced his salesman, Harvey Kellar. Harvey pulled up the Eclipse Cross however the beauty that I ended up purchasing was in the background. I know this is a long review & my apologies if I offend any readers, but I do believe in the power of prayer & manifesting. I was about to āsettleā for less room & a color I didnāt really want until I saw my new 2024 Outlander in the background. It was not on the website yet and was exactly what I had prayed to find. My concern was size however after my test drive, I knew & the best part, it was only $1K more. I was still given the same discounts as I was going to receive with the Eclipse Cross. To wrap up, this truly was the BEST buying experience I have ever had from inquiry, working w/Harvey to the final contract paperwork w/Gregg Decman. Honest, professional & attentive why would you go anywhere elseā¦I know I wonāt. Thank-you to the Anderson Team!!! ”

I will start off by saying that my experience at Rock
“ I will start off by saying that my experience at Rock River Kia started out great, there was no issues with this dealer in any way until it came time for the delivery of our vehicle. We dealt with Todd Berg, (never deal with Todd) and it was absolutely the most terrible service Iāve had. He didnāt make delivery of the vehicle as clear as he says he did, we are from out of state and he said they would drive the car to us for $1000 we thought that was great! He said it would be more for an enclosed trailer so we just chose the cheaper option assuming it was an open trailer. Well on the day of the delivery, a driver actually showed up driving the Telluride, they physically drove the car 800 miles to us, it now has rock chips and bugs splattered all over it. We have the driver wait as we call Todd Berg, once we told him the issue he was immediately defensive and started to raise his voice. He had no apologies or tried to fix the situation in any way he constantly blamed us and said it our fault. So just purely off of his attitude we decide to send the car back and not take delivery of it. Todd then calls me a scammer saying Iām trying to scam him on this sale, and calls us liars. I told him over the phone his attitude was xxxxxxxx and he said he was glad we are sending the car back because he doesnāt want our business anyways and then hung up on me. Funny thing is this guy is suppose to be a āManagerā aside from this in the very beginning, he told me I needed to sign a document agreeing to put down $1000 deposit and that it was non refundable. Which is completely fine and normal, he emailed me the document and said he will not charge my card until he gets the document back signed. After about 1-2 hours I still hadnāt had time to review the document and he proceeds to charge my card $1000 without my consent form being signed. If anyone was being scammed it was me! Last thing to note was while the driver waited on us to sort things out with Todd over the phone, the driver lays down in our front lawn like heās going to take a nap, and when he first got out of our new Telluride he pulled out his drinks, snack wrappers and duffle bags from our car. What kind of professionalism is that? Iāve never had such a terrible interaction with a dealership let alone personally attacked and called a liar and scammer by a āManagerā. I spoke with Jason the general manager of the store and he said Todd admitted to his behavior and said he overreacted. But doesnāt sound like Todd is going to face any kind of repercussions for his actions so now Iām going to make it known. Too many people have bad experiences and donāt share them when they should. I have seen many people get bad service from a place simply because the people who had a bad experience didnāt share it. As a business owner I see this all the time, reviews are very important and help us improve. ”
“ I posted a 1 star with a long review on why and I go to look and my 1 star was changed to a 5 star. So I'm changing it back to 1 star ”
“ You wanted to charge my wife $50 to install a front plate mount. Took me 5 minutes to do. You lost our business, we'll drive to Elgin for all our work now. ”
“ Harvey sold me a car that had bad brakes and bad rotors (front and back). When I tried to get them fixed (because they sold me a car that with bad breaks and rotors), he said that I had the car too long (1 month and a week). When I threatened to bring the car back, Harvey said they would cover the front rotors and breaks. When I said I would help with the back rotors and breaks, he said "it doesn't work like that" so now, im basically paying $318 because they didn't want to fix this before they sold the car. They basically scammed me out of $318. When I came to him about the issue, he said he was just trying to keep us happy but at the end of the day, I had to replace what they didn't before they sold the car. I will NEVER buy a car here EVER again. The fact that these people snaked me out of my money is ridiculous. And the fact that I tried to talked to the manager "Bill" over the salesman "Harvey" multiple times and he was never there or I wasn't able to talk to him because he was in a meeting is beyond crazy. When I went to replace the breaks and rotors through them, I literally had to pay half. They were not honest when selling the vehicle and then made me pay for it. The fact that I wasn't able to deal with the manager or the people fixing my car seemed real fishy to me. If you ever buy a car from them, make sure you take it to a mechanic the same day so they don't try to screw you over. ”

“ Usually I have good service, recently stopped in for an oil change, with an appointment it took a little over an hour. was told that the service tech noticed battery acid leaking into my vents, never bothered to ask if I wanted a replacement or if they should pull it. I took it to Farm and Fleet and had them put in a new one while I went to dinner. Old battery had no leaks, wasn't bulging and seemed to be fine. Ended up costing me a couple hundred. ”

“ Harvey is really good at his job. He tried everything to find me the vehicle I was looking for and found it. He was even willing to sit through listening to exactly what I was looking for and how much I could afford and how bad previous cars I bought were. This alone took a good two hours. Never pushy, very easy to talk to. I Will definitely refer him to friends and family. Great job š ”
