I’ve bought every car I’ve owned from King Acura since moving to Birmingham in 1993. For the past two years I’ve been amazed at how ABYSMAL their service department has been both in terms of servicing my moving to Birmingham in 1993. For the past two years I’ve been amazed at how ABYSMAL their service department has been both in terms of servicing my car and customer service. Just to name a few examples: 1) my last service visit, King Acura said my brake pads were metal on metal. But they couldn’t fit me in for 2weeks. So I took it to Rob’e Mans that very day and they replaced brake pads AND pointed out several other problems that King Acura had failed to uncover. 2) Honda Motors sent a recall notice for a fuel injector directing me to contact my local dealership. When I called King Acura two weeks ago, they said they wouldn’t have the part for 2 weeks. I called yesterday and they said it would be May 2025 before they could replace the part. I asked to speak to a manager…they transferred the call to a line that rang for 2 minutes before a recorded message said to leave a message. For the FOURTH time in six months, no one has returned my call. 3) After returning home from a service visit 1 year ago, I noticed a yellow circle on one of my tires. They had circled a nail that was in the tire, but failed to tell me about it. 4) when I picked up my car from a service visit 18 months ago, my key fob was missing. They insisted I hadn’t left the key fob with the car. Perhaps most exasperating of all is the fact that they DO NOT RETURN PHONE CALLS!!! More
I always thought of this dealer and brand as bullet-proof. I received a recall in January. Went in they said "no Parts". Checked four more times. Finally got on the schedule for August. Took bullet-proof. I received a recall in January. Went in they said "no Parts". Checked four more times. Finally got on the schedule for August. Took the car in for scheduled maintenance and four new tires ($1400 package). Made the appointment month in advance. When I arrived service rep wanted to know what I needed done. Left car there for two days and while there I received email from sales rep wanting to know if I was interested in new car. I said sure. Went in at 9AM to discuss with sales Rep, he said "I have a 10:30 (not sure what he was doing between 9 and 10:30) appointment" so he would call me after that, Never heard from him. Long story short, I went in and they couldn't find my car nor keys. Sales rep forgot to show me "new car" and told me it was not very smart to pay $1400 for repairs if I wanted to trade. He did finally give me some "numbers" but didn't even show me the car. I told him I was on my way to talk to Audi and his reply was "be careful, their scheduled maintenance is very expensive". Next day he sent me a message, "you still interested?" This could have been my FIFTH new Acura but instead it was the last time I will ever darken their doors . More

Acura brand has been in our family for 33 years, 31 of them with King Acura. we purchased 3 vehicles from King Acura (the OG was from GA when we lived there) and have used King for all service on 4 differ them with King Acura. we purchased 3 vehicles from King Acura (the OG was from GA when we lived there) and have used King for all service on 4 different Acuras. Recently while performing a service on our oldest Acura, it was returned to us with a large crack in the windshield. It took the service manager one week to respond and his response amounted to "so what, too bad and not my issue." 31 out of 33 years with this group, so much money spent there and this is how they choose to treat long standing customers. Highly recommend others find another place to purchase and service their vehicle if in the market for or currently own an Acura. You will not be valued here. More
I really enjoyed my test driving experience. The salesman was very knowledgeable? I actually look forward to making my next purchase from King Acura. The salesman was very knowledgeable? I actually look forward to making my next purchase from King Acura. More
Second worst customer service experience I’ve ever had in 20 years of dealing with service departments. The customer greeter in the service department was aggressive, short with answers and made sure there w 20 years of dealing with service departments. The customer greeter in the service department was aggressive, short with answers and made sure there was tons of attitude in those answers towards me and the customer behind me. After calling corporate Acura I found out that the information she gave me was wrong as well. This was the first and last time I will step foot on King Acura’s property. They may be a great dealership to buy from, but their service greeter has zero customer service or communication skills. More
I loved it! Everyone were so helpful and professional. Amira Janhaoui is the best! She treated me as her own little sister! I left happy. 😊 Amira Janhaoui is the best! She treated me as her own little sister! I left happy. 😊 More
They have on their website that their service department is until 6pm, but they service until 5pm. They have poor customer service when they communicate to you. The only reason I still go because they are t is until 6pm, but they service until 5pm. They have poor customer service when they communicate to you. The only reason I still go because they are the only dealership locally. I guess that’s why they respond and communicate the way they do. More

The sale was littered with miscommunication and lies and cost me extra $ in the end. The service department is also difficult to work with and extremely rude. Good luck to you if you decide to go this route. I make sure my friends and family don't! More
Bad experience King Acura Our bad experience Happened June 2018 purchasing a 2019 Acura I agree with horrible experience. Due to financing (using another source) wait time over Our bad experience Happened June 2018 purchasing a 2019 Acura I agree with horrible experience. Due to financing (using another source) wait time over 3 hrs to write a check for the car. We were the only customer in show room that we could see waiting. Finance manager was our bad experience. Dealership Manager did get involved to resolve the issue 3 hours later after my wife come unglued with the finance manager after he said he was not ready for us yet after salesman told us he was ready.
