I called to schedule a Service appointment on my Kia Optima. I explained to the rep I was coming from out of town and wouldn't be able to leave it longer than a business day due to not having a ride hom Optima. I explained to the rep I was coming from out of town and wouldn't be able to leave it longer than a business day due to not having a ride home. She assured me if I dropped it off first thing, they would have all day to look at it and it would be ready by close of business same day. When I arrive at 7:30am, I was greeted by an advisor who told me they were two weeks just for diagnostics. If the rep would have told me that, I would have gone somewhere else. I cannot leave my vehicle for two weeks. This was a huge inconvenience that could have been prevented by Landers Kia if the rep would have simply told me that. Not only was I inconvenienced, but the advisor didn't even apologize. Even though it wasn't his fault, I still expected an apology on behalf of his team member (the rep) instead of a heartless "bye". I will never refer or return to Landers simply because of poor communication and poor customer service. More
They lied about loaner cars while vehicle is in the shop and then when my power door went out in my brand new carnival they wouldn’t warranty it because of a less than half inch paint chip on the back of th and then when my power door went out in my brand new carnival they wouldn’t warranty it because of a less than half inch paint chip on the back of the door l, no dent not other damage just a tiny paint chip and that’s why the door won’t unlatch, they have no honor and will do whatever they can to get out of a warranty. Would never buy from another landers dealership More
Our car broke down while on vacation. Engine failed under warranty. It has been in the service dept for almost 3 weeks with NOTHING happening. They are still "taking pictures of the oil Engine failed under warranty. It has been in the service dept for almost 3 weeks with NOTHING happening. They are still "taking pictures of the oil level" and asking the factory what they should do. We will attempt to have it towed out of there because it looks like they may keep it for several years if we don't do something. More
This is directed solely on the service department. I have no idea how the rest of the store works. This whole thing started a week ago. My brother called to make an appointment for my car because it I have no idea how the rest of the store works. This whole thing started a week ago. My brother called to make an appointment for my car because it has six recalls. He told them on this call that I live out of state and needed any work done within a week. They told him that they needed a week to get the parts in, so made my appointment for 730 this morning. I was there early with my father in tow due to needing a ride home for the day. Not ten minutes later, I get a call from the dealership informing me that they will need to keep my car for a week to wait on the parts. At this point I'm confused. That's why I've waited a week and postponed my departure to go back to my home, because the soonest they could get me in was Thursday. So I get back up there and they inform me that they have to do an inspection prior to ordering parts. I understand this necessity; however, I don't understand why I wasn't asked to come in on Friday of last week for the inspection. The technician then mansplained that my brother called the call-center and they don't know these things. That he should've called them directly. I called my brother and told him about that and I had intended to call the center and lodge a complaint. He then tells me that he did call the service department directly. That they were the ones who set this up, had run my vin and told him that they would order the parts and to come in Thursday to have all the recalls fixed. So now, yes, I'm rightfully pissed. This service department gave me the run around, called my brother a liar, wasted my time, and completely changed all of my plans to suit their needs. I've been treated like a stupid woman before at car dealerships and shops because they all have the same mindset that women know nothing about cars. I may not know anything about cars, but I do about business, and this dealership's service department will ruin this dealership's business if this is how they handle ALL their customers. I can say I was planning on buying a new Kia this summer, and was going to do that here, but due to the treatment from this service department, the dealership has now lost that sale. I will go else where. More
I wanted to give a zero rating, but that was not an option! Took the Kia that I purchased from Landers Kia and to get an oil change 18,000 mile package and recalls fixed. Yes, the guy did have me sign option! Took the Kia that I purchased from Landers Kia and to get an oil change 18,000 mile package and recalls fixed. Yes, the guy did have me sign something that quoted pricing , however, when I went to pay, it is not what was on the paper that I signed and it was more. I asked to speak to a manager. up with his cocky attitude, and was very intimidating. the page where I signed and started calculating I did not try to have a conversation with me or try to help me so of course I got defensive. I told him to stop because at that point, I knew what he was going to tell me and that he was not going to try to help me in anyway. He did say you’re not going to let me finish and I said no and he walked away.. I did say well you’re not a very good manager, and he turned around and looked at me and said well you’re not a very good customer. I’ve been in customer service for years and I would never say that to a customer. I did reply with I have bought two vehicles here and the MANAGER replied, with that doesn’t make you a good customer. I will be finding another dealership to get my vehicle serviced. More

They have do maintained and what they do do it's half done. they lie about what is covered on warranties just to make a sale their service is awful. They have do maintained and what they do do it's half done. My car has no bottom cover due to them not putting the cover back on properly not once but twice it's fallen out on the freeway. When I took it back nothing but sarcasm. Yes ma'am, I understand ma'am xx, would never recommend anyone to do business there. More
