Courage Kia

This was our 2nd purchase in 6 months from Kia of Gastonia. In July we just stopped in to test drive as we were in the market for an affordable SUV that I could get in and out of without problems. Gastonia. In July we just stopped in to test drive as we were in the market for an affordable SUV that I could get in and out of without problems. We were approached by Jamal and it was a pleasant experience from there. We left with a brand new red Sportage "Kandi" as we named her. On Jan 12th,2013 we went in to see if we had won a big prize for the promotion they had going on. Well we can never just go in and walk out of a dealership. My husband's dream car since late 2011 has been a loaded Optima. Well you can imagine what happened next. He drove a loaded 2012 that was recently traded in and that is all she wrote...well after a few test drives. Jeremy Price was our sales associate and he was awesome. Larry the "Finance Guy" (sorry Larry I can't remember your last name) has been a pleasure to work with both purchases. We didn't win a big prize just a Subway giftcard but my husband is a happy boy driving his dream car! His dream car for the moment anyway. To sum it all up Thank you for such great customer service! We will be back! Jamie & Lee Slater More

What can I say to sum this up quick and to the point!!!! Quick, courteous, knowledgeable, and most of all caring of the situation!! I had issues with my driver side window, slipped out of track! Of course i Quick, courteous, knowledgeable, and most of all caring of the situation!! I had issues with my driver side window, slipped out of track! Of course it had to happen as there was a thunderstorm about to roll in.!! I called and spoke to Clay in service. He told me to come right over!!! When I arrived, I assumed because he said come right now, that they wouldn't be busy. Not true, busy but yet concerned and helpful to everyone that was there for service, including myself. My window needed a part that they didn't have in stock. Another pleasant surprise, Clay told me he had the part on hold for a customer that scheduled an appointment on Tuesday to come in for service. He said he could put that one on my car, and have another one ordered and delivered before the other customer was due to come in on Tuesday!!! I was so thankful that I wouldn't have to A) worry about getting wet/interior flooded, and B) wouldn't need to come back!!! I would highly recommend anyone I know to have their vehicles serviced at this dealership!!! I will say, I do have a comparison, Kia of South Charlotte!!! They were horrible, rude, and made you feel like you were a number not a customer that had bought 2 cars from their dealership in one week!!!!! So another reason to choose Kia of Gastonia!!!, even if you have to drive an extra distance!!! More

We did our research and shopped a couple of dealerships before looking online where we found Kia of Gastonia. Mind you, we live in suburban Atlanta so we had plenty of choices. We are so glad we chose th before looking online where we found Kia of Gastonia. Mind you, we live in suburban Atlanta so we had plenty of choices. We are so glad we chose this dealer! They worked hard to get exactly what we wanted and then worked hard to get competitive rates for financing. We had a van to trade in and they gave us a very fair price according to NADA and Kelly Blue Book values. They even arranged delivery when the car is prepped and ready knowing that we live so far away. No pressure, no gimmicks, just honest business. By the way, this dealer has an "A" rating with their Better Business Bureau and we can certainly attest to that! Well worth a car and for us it was worth the drive. We will definitely do business with these guys again. More

Went in on a Thursday and talked to Brian, he informed me that a 2011 Hyundai was $11,995. So I went home to fill out the online application because I had to have a cosigner. After the application was finish that a 2011 Hyundai was $11,995. So I went home to fill out the online application because I had to have a cosigner. After the application was finished, I was contacted by Daniel saying I was approved.... I went back to the dealership with my cosigner that Saturday. We looked at the car again and was ready to sign paper work. Daniel brings us the paper work and now they were asking $13,995 before taxes, tags, interest and all that stuff..... They jacked the price up $2,000 within a 2 day period and then tried to tell me I was lieing about the $11,995.... Very unprofessional. Oh. And the banks charges the dealership a $1,000 fee to use them. So then they turn around and charge the buyer more to make up for the loss.... Some dealers talk too much... Buyers need to know how Most car dealers work. More

My partner and I were looking to buy a car, and with the credit she has (not too bad, but not good either), they were willing to do whatever it took in order to find her the perfect car. She ended up drivi credit she has (not too bad, but not good either), they were willing to do whatever it took in order to find her the perfect car. She ended up driving out of there in a new Kia Forte!!! Amazing job and thank you for going above and beyond what others have done in order to find a perfect fit!!!! Thank you so much to Heather and Wendy and to the team at Kia of Gastonia for finding a reliable vehicle (and with great deals at that)! You guys are wonderful, and we will definitely recommend Kia of Gastonia to others who are in search of the perfect vehicle. Sincerely, Kia Customer More

I came in on March 24 at 745 at night and Stephen introduced his self to me, my wife, and son. He asked a few questions and took us straight to the perfect car. This had to of been the smoothest and introduced his self to me, my wife, and son. He asked a few questions and took us straight to the perfect car. This had to of been the smoothest and fastest car deal ever. Stephen made me drive it, (well he drove and we rode). He told us everything about the car and worked numbers fast. He was one of the best salesman we ever had. I recommend him to anyone. It took about hour to buy a car at a great price! While in finance Stephen filled our tank and detailed our car. Then he paired our phones, showed us all features and we out. I can only give him a 10 but I would rate 100! Go to Kia, see Stephen and you will not be let down! More

Kay was very friendly and worked with us to make sure we got the best deal that we could. the ove knowageable of the cars and ewuipment on them.

Kay was excellent. She went above and beyond to go over all the details of all the cars we looked at. She even let us take the car for the afternoon so we could try it out in daily life and with the car s all the details of all the cars we looked at.

She worked with us to ensure we were getting the exact deal we were looking for so there was no haggling once we got to the credit department. More

Before visiting Kia of Gastonia I told my friends I would rather be stripped naked and marched down Main Street rather than go car shopping. As I said, that was before visiting Kia of Gastonia. The entire ex rather be stripped naked and marched down Main Street rather than go car shopping. As I said, that was before visiting Kia of Gastonia. The entire experience from the moment my husband and I stepped out of our car and met salesman Ron Gosey to completion of financing with Larry was incredibly easy and pleasant. Both gentlemen went out of their way to make sure our car buying needs were met and our payment fit our budget. We were not the easiest "sell" which made their efforts to negotiate a fair deal even more impressive. I highly recommend Ron Gosey as an honest, knowledgable representative who treats his customers with respect and takes the time to address their concerns. Kia of Gastonia is obviously focused on maintaining long term relationships rather than a one time quick sale and it shows in the way their employeess communicate with customers. Great product, great warranty, great customer service. I can't imagine buying a car anywhere else. More
