Fast, Fair, Painless Deal Chris Hawks was my sales person and he was very easy to work with and made the car buying experience pretty painless. I went in anticipating the worst Chris Hawks was my sales person and he was very easy to work with and made the car buying experience pretty painless. I went in anticipating the worst but the deal was fairly quick with minimal back and forth to get the deal done. I feel like they made sure I got all the rebates possible and gave me a very fair offer on my trade in. Overall I highly recommend Rodeo Kia and Chris Hawks in particular. More

best car buying experience ever! I am recovering from a stroke, so my brain tends to wear out really fast and I really needed to minimize my time at the dealership. Chris Hawks worke I am recovering from a stroke, so my brain tends to wear out really fast and I really needed to minimize my time at the dealership. Chris Hawks worked with me via text until we agreed on an out the door price with my trade in. The next morning I met Chris at the dealership and he had all of the paperwork ready so that the test drive, paperwork, and financing was done in about 50 minutes. About 15 minutes later, my car was cleaned up and ready to go, and Chris gave me a run through of the car and setup my phone on the Bluetooth. Chris was the nicest guy and was easy going, patient and kind, and such a pleasure to work with. There was absolutely no price haggling and he already had the paperwork prepared for the exact price that we agreed upon over text messages the day before. I've never had such a pleasant car buying experience, and this is the 10th car that I've bought from a dealership over the past 30 years. I drove 34 miles to this dealership even though there is another Kia dealership just a few miles away from me, and I will definitely look for Chris Hawks at Rodeo Kia the next time I'm looking for a car. Thanks Chris!!! And by the way, I love our new Sportage! More
Best sales man ever! I have to say that Mr. Chris Hawk is the best sale man in Arizona. I had gone to just about all the dealerships in Arizona and I was always given the I have to say that Mr. Chris Hawk is the best sale man in Arizona. I had gone to just about all the dealerships in Arizona and I was always given the run around and always ended up getting denied. Chris made it so easy and fast, he got me pre approve over the phone. Once I went to the dealership Chris and the hole team got me in and out and driving a new car with a great deal with in a hour. I highly recommend to anyone that's looking to buy a vehicle to contact Chris Hawk at Kia dealership in Avondale AZ. More
Slimy sales tactics. AVOID! The sales managers here are downright TERRIBLE, sarcastic, rude, and as arrogant as they come. Please read on and I will more than justify my comments The sales managers here are downright TERRIBLE, sarcastic, rude, and as arrogant as they come. Please read on and I will more than justify my comments. (Caution it is lengthy) In 2012 I was in the market for a Sorrento for my wife. Stopped here first and got the “we will beat anyone’s price” spiel, they were $2500 higher than Sand’s KIA (same make, model, and add-ons, identical car) so I bought it from Sand's In 2015, it was time for me to trade in my BMW 335i for something more practical. My wife and I just had our 3rd daughter and needed 2 SUV’s . We looked at Peoria Kia, Rodeo, and Sands. After stopping into Rodeo, after having a flyer sent in the mail regarding their giveaways and 0% promotion for 72 months. I met a cocky salesman from the East Coast who talked numbers and arrogantly stated “no one will beat our prices”. I was thinking to myself; I’ve heard it before and you lost my business. After quoting an over-inflated price, he attempted a hand shake. “Do we have a deal?” he asked. I stated that I will see what Sands will do since they beat the price on our last Sorrento. However, I gave my word that I would stop back before buying. Sands offered the same model complete with the convenience package and roof racks with cross bars. They also offered me $12k for my BMW trade which was $3-$4k less than book (expected for a dealer trade). Rodeo only offered me $9k and Mr. Jersey Shore didn’t know, I have been in sales since before he was born and a finance professional (had my HP10bii+ with me). He tried really hard and I amused my wife by telling her everything he was going to do before he did it. We finally got to the “real” numbers and a hand in my face “so we have a deal?”. I said we have a deal if I get the cross bars (which were not included in the model he offered). He then manifested on me and said “were not here to play games, if they are giving you the cross bars, buy it from them!”. I said OK, thanks for making my decision for me. I called my salesman (Brett) at SAND’s, and told him I was on my way. So Mr. Slick lost another $35,000 deal over $70 bucks. Today (3/26/2016) was my third stop just to look at what was on the lot. We met a nice salesman (Iman) who spent over a half hour with us, so I figured I could give these guys a shot again. We are trading the 2012 and looking at a Sedona for my wife. After a test drive I promised Iman I would return with the expectation of privately selling our 2012 instead of a dealer trade. If they beat Sands’ offer, I would have given them the business. HOWEVER, I noticed the same salesman from 2015 at the managers desk (they actually promote these guys for being jerks and losing business). Iman went back and they blurted out loud enough for the entire dealership to hear “he wants us to take $15k off the price, yeah RIGHT!” I NEVER asked for anything off of the price, and at that point was pissed and left the dealership. Simply put, these guys HATE it when you are better at their tactics then they are, and they are as slimy as you can get. Do yourself a favor and Make the drive to SANDS in Surprise. You will be glad you did! I will never step foot in Rodeo again and ALL of my clients, friends, family, and colleagues (and there are many), who ask my advice about purchasing a KIA will receive the same warning. After this purchase, Rodeo will have lost over $120,000 of vehicle purchases from us in just 3 years. Way to close the business! More
