I bought a used car from Midwest Kia in September 2024. It is making a terrible metal on metal noise. When I called, they said the next available appointment is February 2025. I called Midtown Kia in Tulsa It is making a terrible metal on metal noise. When I called, they said the next available appointment is February 2025. I called Midtown Kia in Tulsa, OK and they told me emphatically not to drive it and to have it towed to them. I will be doing that in the morning. Midwest Kia lied when they told me they had my back on service for this car. They are NOT dependable. They DO NOT keep their word. I will NEVER do business with them again. More
Dropped my car off for a recall. Picked it up a week later. Three days after that, check engine light came on, code was misfire for cylinder 2. Took it in June 11th, explained that I Picked it up a week later. Three days after that, check engine light came on, code was misfire for cylinder 2. Took it in June 11th, explained that I switched coil packs 2 and 4 and the misfire stopped, but check engine light was still on. I waited without an update until July 6th before I went to get my car. Service writer said he was going to reach out. Said the tech test drove it several times and could not duplicate the problem. I drove it home, no problems. Next day the misfire returned. I found that I had mis-identified the cylinder. When I looked at the correct coil pack, I saw the problem immediately- see picture. One of the wires in coil pack 2 was partially pulled out. I pushed it back in and the problem was gone. Here's the worst part: I have a dash cam. It showed my car sat from the 11th to the 19th before the tech pulled it into his bay. He spent 5 minutes with his diagnostic tool inside the car, then popped the hood. He spent 4 minutes looking around the engine with a flashlight, occasionally wiggling things. Then he got back into the car for a few minutes, then did a 15 minute test drive. He parked the car and it did not move again until I picked it up 17 days later. He missed the loose wire(I would assume the tech knew which cylinder was #2), only drove it once, then they didn't contact me for 17 days. I wouldn't trust them to change my wiper blades. More
Big AL Holmes was a great salesman! He was honest and helped me get a car within my financial abilities! I will definitely go back if and when I need to purchase a new car!!!

I BOUGHT MY CAR ABOUT 6 WKS AGO. ALL THEY CARE ABOUT IS THE SALE AND NOTHING AFTER. I HAVE CONTACTED COUNTLESS PEOPLE AT THIS DEALERSHIP TO FIX THE ISSUE AND STILL HAVE NO RESOLUTION ALL THEY CARE ABOUT IS THE SALE AND NOTHING AFTER. I HAVE CONTACTED COUNTLESS PEOPLE AT THIS DEALERSHIP TO FIX THE ISSUE AND STILL HAVE NO RESOLUTION. I NEED THE FACTORY CODE TO RESET THE OUTDOOR KEY PAD WITH MY CODE. YOU WOULD THINK THIS WOULD BE SIMPLE BUT THEY JUST SENT ME TO FORD WHO WANTED TO CHARGE ME $75. I'VE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH ALYSSA SEVERAL TIMES AND SHE JUST KEEPS PUTTING ME OFF. CONNOR DOESN'T ANSWER HIS PHONE OR VOICEMAILS. THIS ISN'T AN ISSUE THAT I COMPLAINED ABOUT DAYS LATER, THIS WAS LITERALLY THE NEXT DAY! I ALSO NEEDED MY BUMPER REPAINTED WHICH THEY WANTED TO TOUCH UP, BUT I FOUGHT FOR THE WHOLE THING TO BE PAINTED AND IT DOESEN'T EVEN MATCH!! BEWARE...THIS PEOPLE ARE ONLY OUT FOR YOUR MONEY! More
Absolutely terrible experience. Came looking for a used 2018 Toyota Highlander XLE as shown on their website but it had been moved to another location for a test drive. No problem. Came looking for a used 2018 Toyota Highlander XLE as shown on their website but it had been moved to another location for a test drive. No problem. We were asked to call back in the morning to check availability for a test drive. I called this morning and spoke with Allysa who said it was still available and set up a test drive for me at 6pm. She informed me she wasn’t sure if it was back in their lot yet, she’d give me a call back asap to confirm. I waited about 4hrs with no response so I called again, spoke with Allysa who said she’d call me back in 15 minutes. I waited another hour with no response. I called again, spoke with Joshua (I believe was his name) who said that my test drive was never set up but he’d get me taken care of. He didn’t know if the car was in the lot yet but would call me back if it wasn’t. I showed up at 6pm for my test drive, the Highlander was NOT there. I’d had someone leave work early and drive an hour to care for my child just for this appointment. They told me they’d call me tomorrow when the Highlander was in their lot. What a waste of time and a place with multiple unprofessional salespeople. I’m HIGHLY disappointed. I asked not to be contacted. Though I need an SUV and wanted a Highlander XLE, was willing to buy TODAY, they missed out on $30k because of their unprofessionalism and inability to properly perform their jobs. I will never recommend Midwest Kia to anyone I know in the Wichita area looking to purchase. More
Started out buying a vehicle across state lines, and immediately had an issue come up. We figured ok no problem because there was a kia certified dealer super close to us. We figured the fix would be co immediately had an issue come up. We figured ok no problem because there was a kia certified dealer super close to us. We figured the fix would be covered under the manufacturer warranty, but our mistake was bringing it to Midwest Kia. Starting off, the tech was not honest about the report writing even after directly speaking with him, and him saying he was not sure of the cause but he "felt" this had to be the case. Got a lot of grief about getting the contact information for Kia Consumer Affairs. And kept being told that they looked everywhere for the part, but it was on back order nationwide. Fast forward 7 weeks later of having the Jenn Psaki of Kia Consumer Affairs saying he would circle back to us when he got answers, and Galian, the district rep, not willing to speak or hear us out, and Midwest Kia not even able to get us a loaner car for the time being. We ended up contacting the original dealership we bought it from in Oklahoma, to see what they could find...they found the part in 2 days...2 days!!! We ended up pulling the vehicle from Midwest Kia because we felt we were being taken advantage of . The only person who seemed to be on our side was Pat from the service dept. We will prob never buy Kia again, and def will never go back to Midwest Kia More
I purchased a vehicle from Midwest Kia in September 2022 and by January 2023 it kept dying when trying to drive it. I contacted dealer spoke to several people. Called from 8:00am to 5:30 and finally asked f and by January 2023 it kept dying when trying to drive it. I contacted dealer spoke to several people. Called from 8:00am to 5:30 and finally asked for the general manager. I was told he may be busy but I will give him your name and number. I’m so frustrated. I do not recommend purchasing a vehicle from this dealership unless you don’t mind walking to work. More
I'm very happy with my car. Manny Macias was very helpful through out the whole process. He was very thorough with my wants and needs. He didn't try to sell me anything I didn't Manny Macias was very helpful through out the whole process. He was very thorough with my wants and needs. He didn't try to sell me anything I didn't want, which is very important to me. He provided me a nice car until my car was ready to be picked up. He even made sure my car was thoroughly detailed before I picked it up. I would recommend Manny if you are wanting a stress free purchase, from the beginning to the end. Thank you Manny I couldn't had picked a better car. I absolutely love it. More
I thought we had an agreement on the price I would pay as the sticker price. I asked the sales manager, Jason and salesperson if there were any other Costs beyond taxes that I should be aware of. Nothing was the sticker price. I asked the sales manager, Jason and salesperson if there were any other Costs beyond taxes that I should be aware of. Nothing was mentioned. Then comes the paperwork with $599 admin fee… on a cash deal, with no trade. There were no signs or any indication that once a price was agreed upon a buyer should expect an extra $599. I realize this is becoming common in the industry, but the lack of forthright transparency leaves me extremely disappointed. Further, I felt disrespected as a woman by Jason, the sales manager. Were it solely my decision, I would have purchased in KC, OK or MO rather than here. But, I have a husband that I have to live with as well. The good news is the car is awesome and a very good value for the features and warranty. I didn’t encounter any women in the dealership though. It’s very male dominated and a bit like a Proud Boy festival. Marcos and Julian were great though. More
Kimberly Handlin-Rowell Not sure if you remember me or not but, I was on here in before. Bought my vehicle September 22,2022 So here’s the deal I bought my beautiful truck from Kia which would be my 5t not but, I was on here in before. Bought my vehicle September 22,2022 So here’s the deal I bought my beautiful truck from Kia which would be my 5th vehicle purchased at their place. Now the dealer people were nice, but my truck is another situation. My truck on the 3rd day after buying it sept 25th, was in a nursing home parade with residents riding. While in the nursing home parade my truck started smoking bad enough that people wanted me out of the parade and moved barriers to let me out. This meant the 98 year old resident along with the other resident didn’t get to go through the rest of the parade and were upset with me about it. So KIA takes my truck back and runs several studies on it and says they never found anything after a couple of days. Not sure if they found anything wrong with it and fixed it, I just know what they told me about not figuring out anything. Now they did provide me with a vehicle until I had to call to find out if the truck was ready or not. When I called they told me it had been ready since yesterday, so I told them I hadn’t received a call and I picked my truck up. I took my truck and had no problems for a few weeks. Then I’m dropping my son off at school and the truck starts to give me and inclinement issue alarm. So I take it back to KIA and talk to the service manager who was really nice and told me he found nothing wrong with the truck. Several weeks later the same error comes up I contact KIA and I am told to take it to a FORD dealership to have it looked at because it’s out of the 30 warranty. Which feels to me like they pushed the issue away like nothing was wrong until the 30 return policy was out of date. Well the episodes started coming more frequently and now it’s broke down in OKC and currently at the FORD dealership there. I had drove to Texas for my grandpa’s funeral and was on my way back from his burial when it just stopped running in the middle of 75-80 mph traffic. The mechanic from the FORD dealership calls me today and tells me the motor is blown. Now my truck has been treated like a queen with oil change and tire rotation already done on it. It had apx 118,00O miles on it when I bought it and now it has 131,000 miles on it. I call the KIA manager and leave a message for him to call back that was around 1130am and now it’s 1530pm without any phone call received. So I ponder after I’m stuck with a truck payment, no ride, no way to take my children to school or pick them up, and no way to get a rental. How am I supposed to get to work to take care of my residents (family) so that I can pay for my broke down truck from KIA that I bought in Sept 2022 which has had constant problems since I bought it. Now I’ve been a nurse for almost 17 years and currently work in a long term care facility where we take care of our residents like family. I love my truck, so I treat her like a queen, but now I’m alone without her and without a way to get to work!! What do I do from here because apparently KIA doesn’t care about the situation. More
