KNAUZ BMW - Key Persons
It was over 90 years ago when, Karl Knauz, the father of the current chairman, Bill Knauz, created the dealership that would bear his name for generations to come. Karl Knauz opened a gas station in Lake Forest after years of being a chauffeur. Did he imagine that this modest beginning would come to be one of the most recognized dealerships in the country. They have weathered the good times and the bad, and done so by taking care of customers using The Golden Rule.
To accommodate our customers, we will install portable hand controls units that the customer provides to us in order to test drive a vehicle so long as the devise can be installed and removed without physical modification or alteration to the vehicle. If the customer does not have a portable vehicle hand control unit, we will provide one. Please note our device is available for vehicles with automatic transmissions only. For the safety of our customers and employees, these hand control units are installed at our service department. Appointments for a vehicle test drive using a hand control devise are strongly recommended for daytime hours to ensure that a licensed technician is available to install the hand control system and safety test before the customer test drive.
If you have any questions regarding this policy, please contact the General Manage r.
