Ty was our finance m It was a pleasure dealing with Josh. Everything he said he was going to do he did. No hassles ,no hidden costs. Great experience. Ty was our finance manager. He wasn't pushy or did he try to sell me anything I didn't want or need. It was an excellent car buying experience. More

In desperate need of a car My wife and I had a good experience because the salespeople worked extremely hard to get us a very good deal on a lease for a 2016 Kia Sorrento despit My wife and I had a good experience because the salespeople worked extremely hard to get us a very good deal on a lease for a 2016 Kia Sorrento despite our not so good credit. I would just say for the future, the salespeople should make sure that the customer is aware that the deal presented could change up or down based on final bank credit approval. More

College girl on a low budget (Thanks Joe Varricchio) I had a 2003 Honda Civic that was literally ready to fall apart. I needed a car quickly that was safe, reliable, and at a college budget. My credit wa I had a 2003 Honda Civic that was literally ready to fall apart. I needed a car quickly that was safe, reliable, and at a college budget. My credit was not so good either since it was relatively new. I tried multiple dealerships who did not take me seriously (because of my age and gender) and were trying to rob me blind. When I walked into Auto World Kia I knew I picked the right dealership. Joe Varricchio was there for me through the whole process. I was able to get a loan for a brand new kia forte without having to sell my arm and leg. He was very informative, answered all my question, and was the most kind/courteous sales man I have ever met. I thought salesmen were there to take my money, but Joe was different. He made sure I was able to find the right car and at the right price. I was ecstatic to be able to drive away in a car that was safe and reliable, without having to sell my soul. If you want a car that's right for you at the right price for you, go see Joe Varricchio and he will work with you. Thank you Joe !!! More

Same day no hassle For a very long time I was in search for a grand Cherokee jeep, looked at jeep dealerships that were over priced, and went to use car lots that got me For a very long time I was in search for a grand Cherokee jeep, looked at jeep dealerships that were over priced, and went to use car lots that got me horrible financing deals that I was not able to afford. I went to auto world Kia seeing that any credit approved. I didn't think it was possible to get me the payment with a fully loaded 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee but they did. I delt with the salesman Joe V and the finance guy Ty, that was able to get me approved same day with a great monthly payment. My wife is do for a truck because hers is getting old and they told me with making payments a little bit over what it was that I would be able to finance another vehicle from them. Honestly it's working and my credit is approving already after a few months. I would detentitly go back and highly recommend these two as a team for honesty and helping me out! More

JOSEPH WAS GREAT!!!! A few months back I was in a bind needing another car quick for myself and Joseph got me into a car the same day. The finance manager TY assisted me o A few months back I was in a bind needing another car quick for myself and Joseph got me into a car the same day. The finance manager TY assisted me on my loan and got me approved the same day with an un-beatable price on a extended warranty. I'm looking in a month to now buy my mother a new Sorrento and I will absolute return again and give yet another review on my experience. Great place to buy a car! Buy from Joseph Varricchio! More

Decent car, but dealer left a bad taste in my mouth. I have my new 2015 Kia Forte almost 2 months now. While I am generally happy with the car itself, the experience of going through Auto World Kia leave I have my new 2015 Kia Forte almost 2 months now. While I am generally happy with the car itself, the experience of going through Auto World Kia leaves much to be desired. Based on other comments, it seems many others are left with a sour taste in their mouths after going to this dealer. The initial sales consultant, Wayne, was pleasant and knowledgeable enough, and we found some things in common. After doing a few more weeks of research and test driving, I came back, and once the discussions focused on a specific vehicle and specific numbers, I could tell Wayne was a somewhat low man on the totem pole there (I guess most sales consultants are low men anyway.) One of the main gripes I have is about an agreed upon added feature, specifically a remote start system. When that was made part of the package, we had what I thought was an agreement. It turned out that it was not the complete system that I was expecting. A feature that allows starting with your smartphone, something I assumed was standard in all systems these days, was not included. What was even more aggravating was that I was not told that from the outset, or even offered that option, although when it was installed, a card describing the feature was inserted into the system's small manual. I assumed from that that it was part of the system. No one in Service told me anything before I left the premises. When I called to find out how to connect to it, I was told it was not installed, that it was an added option (and a pricey one at that), and that I had to have a subscription to use it. These are somewhat significant details that should be given to any customer. Yet from this place, nothing. I do have one commendation for one of the Finance Managers (Scott?) who even after I signed the contract, kept looking and found a better rate (and lower payment) for me. Fair play to him. Update at 3 months: After the initial review above was posted, I was contacted by Scott Russo who left a message indicating they would take care of my issue. After several attempts to call him back, I learned he was no longer with the dealer. I asked to be contact by someone else, but 3 weeks later, no one has actually contacted me. Also, after 2+ months and only 1100 miles, I was contacted regarding a service appointment I never scheduled. I asked why via email, but was never provided a clear answer. My manual indicates first service at 7500 miles or 6 months. The internal communications within AutoWorld Kia apparently leave much to be desired. Bottom line: Kia is an up an coming car brand, but research the dealers carefully. Don't go to Auto World Kia or either of its sister dealerships in Suffolk County. You are likely to be less than satisfied. UPDATE Jan 2016: AutoWorld Kia did follow up with me and made good on the completion of the remote starter in December. The question regarding scheduled maintenance has still not been clearly answered. There really ought to be a simple web page where owners can register their new vehicles and get a customized schedule for maintenance milestones, by time and/or mileage. This is something that exists with most other car manufacturers and dealers. Thanks. More

Marcel knows customer service and his cars!!! I recently bought a new Sorrento at Auto World and was lucky enough to have Marcel Munlyn take care of my purchase. He was a professional from sta I recently bought a new Sorrento at Auto World and was lucky enough to have Marcel Munlyn take care of my purchase. He was a professional from start to finish! No pushy salesman here!! He is extremely knowledgeable, actually there is nothing he does NOT know about Kias! He was super personable and made the process seamless. He followed up to make sure I was happy with the car and made me feel like I have someone who has my back at the dealership, which always makes for a great relationship. Marcel is a HUGE asset at Auto World, and should be rewarded accordingly! Need to buy a car? Go see Marcel he's waiting for you with a smile. Also met with Tyrone and he was also just as knowledgeable and made the process of finance soooo easy. Super friendly and a pleasure to deal with! More
