The full story
Why Genesis of Schaumburg earned this grade
Genesis Of Schaumburg received an A, based on 12 quotes CarEdge reviewed from November 2025 through November 2026. The review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices and whether charges were clearly shown.
What they do well
- ✓ Dealer fees were below the state reference. Average confirmed dealer fees across all 12 quotes were $375.98, below the Median state fee in Illinois of $397.13; no quote exceeded that median. The median is the middle fee amount in the state reference.
- ✓ Written prices stayed at or below the advertised price. Of five written quotes checked against advertised prices, two were within $1, and none were higher. Across those five, the quoted vehicle price averaged $715 less than the advertised price.
Where to push back
One quote included $2,995 in required extras. Ask whether any of those items can be removed, and have the dealer show the vehicle price, extras, fees, taxes and government charges on an itemized written quote before agreeing. One quote also had unclear taxes, so ask for the tax amount to be shown separately.
