I brought my car here because my key stopped working in the doors and then the ignition. They told me the key was shot, and I spent $300 on two new keys (my car is all-manual, so these were not keys with the doors and then the ignition. They told me the key was shot, and I spent $300 on two new keys (my car is all-manual, so these were not keys with chips or remotes; they were just chiseled metal with a plastic handle). That didn’t resolve the issue, though, and within two weeks my brand-new keys were not working again. Then they told me that it was the cylinder of the lock itself, and offered to replace just the car door lock for $200, in which case I’d have two different keys needed to enter and operate the vehicle, or replace all the locks for $550, in which case they keys I just purchased would be useless. I expressed frustration that, if they’d just caught the actual problem from the beginning, I could’ve just taken the latter option, but instead, I was looking at paying the same amount for a janky dual-key system. I asked how much of the $300 I already spent, at their recommendation, would be credited to any additional work, and they said the they’d give me $70 off any additional work they did to resolve this issue. That is not an appreciable or even reasonable dent in the total $850 it would cost to get my car working properly again. I do not feel that this was a commercially reasonable response to my issue, and I do not feel that I got my money’s worth here. I do not recommend this establishment and I do not feel I was treated like family, as the motto suggested I would be. Update: I worked with the service department and got another full review of the issue with a different master technician and I ended up with a repair that put me in about the same position I’d have been in if the issue had been caught the first time I brought it in. I am pleased with the result, and I’m especially pleased that the folks there were reasonable and polite thought my several times there. No awkwardness at al. More
Clean, friendly, and efficient. Even though this is not the closest Kia dealership to me, I’m likely to bring my car back there going forward. Even though this is not the closest Kia dealership to me, I’m likely to bring my car back there going forward. More
