Palm Springs Kia

I had been thinking about buying a Kia for little over a year so finally decided to take it a step further. I was impressed by the friendliness and attention provided at Palm Springs Kia. This was the far t year so finally decided to take it a step further. I was impressed by the friendliness and attention provided at Palm Springs Kia. This was the far the best car buying experience ever! I will definitely recommend Palm Springs Kia to my friends and family. More

I was asked if my first payment would start in March and would be close to my present payment, if 1 soft credit inquiry would be pulled and if a tow hitch would be installed would I buy the car I a would be close to my present payment, if 1 soft credit inquiry would be pulled and if a tow hitch would be installed would I buy the car I agreed only to have my 1st payment would be February 2nd $60.00 higher , 3 hard inquiries where pulled showing as a major negative affecting my effort in rebuilding my credit . I traded a kia sportage with a needed tow hitch, to be told a tow hitch will be installed on my new purchase, only to find out that was yet another lie More

My sales woman Anna was great. Very friendly and professional. The purchase aspect of dealing with the Kia folks was great. But now that I think about it, it makes sense. They are trying to make mon professional. The purchase aspect of dealing with the Kia folks was great. But now that I think about it, it makes sense. They are trying to make money. However, the rest has been, pretty much crap. I purchased a "certified per-owned vehicle". Approximately 6 days after purchase, the breaks stated squeeling. I took it in and they said its a warning indicator that I need to change the breaks soon. I told them, I purchased the car less than a week ago, and it's supposed to be a certified preowned vehicle. Silly me for thinking breaks would be covered in the certification process. I told the service guy , I don't think I should have to pay for breaks on a vehiclei purchased less than a week ago. He said he would talk to his boss and see what he could do. Aparently his boss didn't think the same as me. The best they were willing to do is give me a discount on a complete break package. So I ended up having to pay $250 for the break job. Here I am again 4 months later with blown head gaskets. I thought omg! Can this get worse? Of course. It's not covered by the warranty. They told me, because my fan stopped working it caused the engine to overheat and that's how my head gaskets got blown. I now end up paying $2900.00 for repairs that took them 2.5 weeks to fix. Btw, they were so nice to give me a rental for 8 of the 17 days, they had my car. They initially gave it to me for 3 days but paid for the extra day I kept the car. Then they said it was going to take longer. So after taking the bus for a few days, they said I could come pick up another rental. This time they said I could keep it for four days. I thought finally, I'll get my car back. Nope. I had to return the rental and my vehicle still was not ready. Two days later I finally got my car back. Two days after that, the check engine light came on. And that's where I am now. I'm deffinately not taking it back to Kia to fix, warranty or not. I'm just gonna end up paying for it anyways. If you think you're special and it won't happen to you. Go ahead, but, you should learn from my mistakes. After talking to a few people, I find they are known for bad business practices. I guess that's what I get for buying a used Chrysler at a Kia dealership. More

Did a lot of internet shopping for our new 2013 Kia Optima EX, and PS Kia gave me a good price without a lot of games and BS, compared to other dealers. Also, I was using my VA auto grant for my down Optima EX, and PS Kia gave me a good price without a lot of games and BS, compared to other dealers. Also, I was using my VA auto grant for my down payment and they were more than willing to work with me on this, where just about every other dealer wanted to charge me full MSRP if they had to process the VA paperwork!!!! What really set this dealership apart was their respect for me the customer, with open and above-the-board discussion and full disclosure. I have had so many bad experiences with other dealers in the past. Suffice to say that we drove away in our beautiful new Optima feeling that we hadn't just spent two hours in shark-infested waters! To top it off, we did not realize that KIA only equips these cars with a can of fix-a-flat. Being a disabled vet, this was going to be problematic for me and when we bought this to the attention of their General Manager, he stepped up and provided us with a "donut" spare, tire jack and lug wrench AT NO CHARGE. These guys really take customer service seriously!! OK, maybe I could have wheeled and dealed and shaved another hundred or so off the price, but we ended up paying 8% over invoice, after all these guys need to make a few bucks. Highly recommend Palm Springs Kia to anyone looking for a good deal and great service. By the way, the new Kia Optima is a FANTASTIC car, looks and runs like a $50K car. More

Went in for service on my 2010 forte ex was talked into upgrading, big mistake, was told the 2013 forte was the exact same as mine so I did not test drive it . I asked again are you sure it is the same, y upgrading, big mistake, was told the 2013 forte was the exact same as mine so I did not test drive it . I asked again are you sure it is the same, yes exactly. When I drove it off the lot I could see there was a problem, then I noticed more problems, so I took it back and said all I want is my old car back, was told you drove it off the lot you bought it. Salesman called me that evening and had the nerve to tell me I had better give him a 10 on the servay (really) he also did not know the difference between an ex and an lx. I am so disapointed in this dealership for the lack of help and sweep me under the rug attitude. This is the fourth car I have bought from this dealership and believe me it will be my last.

Outstanding !!!! This all I can say. It was a great experience. Our sales person Jerry Morales knew exactly what we needed and helped us get it. We loved his friendly no pressure approach. We have been experience. Our sales person Jerry Morales knew exactly what we needed and helped us get it. We loved his friendly no pressure approach. We have been trying to buy a car for awhile now and have been to many dealers to do the dreaded"car purchase" where you want to run away. We never felt that at Palm Springs KIA we were comfortable the whole time. I highly recommend going to see Jerry Morales. We love our KIA Soul. Tom and April More
