Knauz Automotive: Turning customers into friends since 1934
It was almost 80 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, after years of being a chauffeur, opened a gas station in Lake Forest. This modest beginning would turn into one of the most recognized dealerships in the country. While Bill Knauz has turned over the running of the company to his son-in-law, William Madden, most days he'll still stop by the office, unless the weather is conducive for his second passion in life, flying.

Throughout the years, the Knauz family has established itself as a leader in the automobile industry. Our employees pride themselves on outstanding service and quality sales. Our customer satisfaction is always among the top ranked nationwide, receiving numerous awards. In the earlier days, Bill Knauz remembers getting to know all of the customers by name. That's a little harder to do today, he said, but they do see a lot of repeat business, including some of the grandchildren of past customers. We are humbled by our history, and eternally grateful for all the thousands of customers that have allowed us to earn their business.

Policy on Hand Control Driving Devises

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 Manager
