I am only going to focus on the extremely shady things. These guys have done and not even about the car itself. They lied multiple times I have proof of it they were supposed to take my $500 deposit and th These guys have done and not even about the car itself. They lied multiple times I have proof of it they were supposed to take my $500 deposit and they never mention there is a 3% fee for using the credit card and then they charged my credit card the day I was getting the car which they should not have been able to keep my credit card information on file that is a privacy Violation and against the law that is why the car dealerships always call you back up because they’re not supposed to keep that information so then they charge me a 3% fee without telling me when I go to get the car it was not even washed or detailed and they told me earlier that morning at 11 AM. The car was going in to get cleaned now and they never did it And the bottom line when I got there they took a while they rushed me to do a very very quick test drive and I had to ask them three times for a test drive because they wanted to hurry up and send the car to get cleaned before it was too late And then they lie when I complain about this and I claim oh we are offered you an extensive test drive when you got here this is one of just the many many lies so the icing on the cake now when the finance manager is doing the deal, he must be new or very slow in the head as he did not do multiple things he was supposed to do and as I am leaving the dealership he comes running out and says oh we forgot to charge you for the DMV and the plates so I said I’m not using my credit card because you guys are going to try to charge me that fee I have cash on me. I did not have exact change but a dealership usually has a cashier so that should not be a problem. They told me they would come back with my change in the receipt and they did not and then they told me oh, if there’s any change, will mail you a check so I left I have all the paperwork everything a week later they call me up and say they forgot to process the $2000 and they need my credit card information I do not have to pay that by credit card I can pay that anyway I want to pay it and I am not going to pay it by credit card in it for 3% fee so illegally they still have my credit card information apparently and they charged me $2060 without my permission again charging me a 3% fee. This dealership is also not Better Business Bureau accredited and I filed a complaint on there tonight they are doing illegal things and very shady and then they claim to have recorded me without my permission when they called me up and they did a three-way conference call without my permission having someone listening on the phone. These are the kind of car dealers that give car dealers a bad name, lying evil sneaky people. And they don’t even have keychains to give you when you buy a new car. I’ve never bought a new car and not got a keychain. Also, the car was not taken by the original person who ordered it and I am having electrical problems with it and I’m wondering if that’s why they didn’t take it so they were in a rush to give it to me and get rid of it and they want me to come up there, but they don’t even have a loaner cars and I live over an hour away.

The experience was awful! The 2010 Forester, which we had bought from them, was not roadworthy. Less than 24 hours after purchase, it suffered a significant mechanical failure The 2010 Forester, which we had bought from them, was not roadworthy. Less than 24 hours after purchase, it suffered a significant mechanical failure. My wife, her mother, and our two children were taking a short trip on winding backcountry roads when the incident occurred, requiring the car to be towed- as it was unsafe to drive. The dealership misrepresented the work that had been done on the car both on the carfax report and to us personally. To make matters worse, the dealership repaired the supposedly broken brake caliper but refused to address any of the additional issues that were discovered, disclaiming the implied warranty after the fact, never in writing. In fact, days later when the car showed signs of additional issues, they lied and told us that the implied warranty did not apply to the vehicle because it is over 100,000 miles; thus, refusing to refund our purchase. When I sought to show the NYS statute that proves the implied warranty remains in effect within the first 30 days after purchase, if there are any safety issues with the vehicle and/or misrepresentation on the part of the dealership, the manager became verbally abusive. He even said that if we wanted to trade the Forester for one that is roadworthy, he wouldn't give us the full monetary value that we had originally paid, just days prior. I have been advised by both a mechanic and an attorney to report the dealership to the DMV and the Better Business Bureau. Avoid Romeo Kia of Kingston. Your life might literally depend on it. More
I've had my car serviced here after I moved from NJ to NY. I've heard good things about this dealership to have my car serviced.

We picked up my new Kia Niro PHEV from the gang at Romeo Kia of Kingston, (go to Dave, bald English dude! He's awesome! But, EVERYONE was amazing) and I don't exaggerate when I say, we dealt w/them for a mo Kia of Kingston, (go to Dave, bald English dude! He's awesome! But, EVERYONE was amazing) and I don't exaggerate when I say, we dealt w/them for a month before actually taking delivery of the car, and they were amazing the entire time. On our way out, Dave noticed, we had a blemish or 2 that shouldn't be there. I'm OCD like crazy and I didn't notice. He had it scheduled to rectify the following week. Mike & Caleb in service, provide a service that's 2nd to none. These guys are on top of their xxxx 24/7. They remembered my name before I ever knew theirs. And they got it right every time, I come/came in there. Real Talk But the best part is, when you're there, handling your issue is the only thing they seem to care about. And that's not common, especially in these times... Thank You Romeo Kia of Kingston! They've earned my business for life. More

We are looking forward to doing more business with them in the future and would highly recommend them to any of our friends! And our sales person was awesome! He went above and beyond to help us out of a really tight 2020 kind of a situation, if you know what I mean.... His name is David Boyle. If you want great service, you should ask to talk to him.
