Very fast and friendly I came in after a new car. I filled out the application on line at 9:30, I got a call to come in at 11:30, and by 2:30 I had a new Forte. Brian wa I came in after a new car. I filled out the application on line at 9:30, I got a call to come in at 11:30, and by 2:30 I had a new Forte. Brian was super helpful. He helped arrange to get my windows tinted and didn't try to sell me everything else in the store. He made me aware of them, but when I said no that was that. I would highly recommend Fletcher Kia to one and all!!! More
Update to Promises Promises. I would like to update this review with positive feedback. As I noted below our initial experience had some opportunities with it, however I am h I would like to update this review with positive feedback. As I noted below our initial experience had some opportunities with it, however I am happy to report that the salesman (James) reached out to me, apologized and really took the extra steps, and went the extra mile to obtain our business. After our conversation, and my apology for not taking into consideration the end of the year deals that the salesman and the dealer were working with, I will be giving Frank Fletcher Kia/Honda a second chance, along with this great salesman. These guys are worth a second look. They are willing to work hard, even if it sometimes means communicating a little harder to work on a deal. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I would like to tell you about my recent experience with Fletcher Honda/Kia. My wife and I live in Centerton and were in need of purchasing a second vehicle. My wife recommended a salesman in one of her referral network groups that worked for Fletcher Honda. This salesman has often touted how he can "Get Anyone" into a car no matter their circumstances. My wife reached out to him via phone, and proceeded to let him know our current situation, and if he could help great, if not, no problem. After my wife reviewed our circumstances, and what we were looking for, she gave him my contact information, and he reached out to me shortly afterwards. After the salesman and I connected, and I filled out the application for credit from Fletcher Kia, I continued to ask what the chances of getting approved on the credit application were. The salesman continued to tell me that after review of the credit application, he believed that the application would be approved, and he further explained that the general manager, and the finance manager would not touch the credit application if they felt there was not any way to get the deal approved. The salesman even went on to say that if the deal could not be approved, he would take me to other dealerships that he has contacts with, and see what they could do, if we could not get approved. The salesman even commented that he has had several customers he has walked to other dealerships, and received the approval for the auto loan. Three days went buy with few phone conversations, and finally I received a text message from the salesman stating that the deal could not be approved. No phone call, or anything personal, just a text message. After two attempts to contact the salesman back, no return phone call. I would not recommend Fletcher Honda/Kia for any car purchase. The salesmen, the staff, and the promises are all just a lie. My family and I felt lied to, and betrayed by the promises of the salesman. I recommended to my wife that she should also let her networking group know that this salesman should not be involved in their networking group because of his false promises, and lack of customer service. Consider another dealer when buying a Honda or Kia. More
Pathetic service rep I made an appointment for an oil change because I won 2 $25 gift certificates from Bella Vista golf league play. The service rep, Brad, first informe I made an appointment for an oil change because I won 2 $25 gift certificates from Bella Vista golf league play. The service rep, Brad, first informed me there was no record of my appointment (the dealership called me the day before to confirm it) Next the rep said one of my certificates was a photo copy and could not use it. WHAT? I can't believe he would question my integrity, especially in the manner that he did. I told him forget it, I would go elsewhere and tell everyone how poorly he represented this dealership.

All it takes is one bad apple. I want to tell you about my recent visit to Honda of Bentonville in my quest to find and purchase a new Pilot or Odyssey. To preface, I chose Fletcher I want to tell you about my recent visit to Honda of Bentonville in my quest to find and purchase a new Pilot or Odyssey. To preface, I chose Fletcher because it is where I purchased my last two vehicles — each time with a good overall buying experience. On this particular day, my salesman and I were in the middle of negotiating when the sales manager approached. I mentioned to him that if we couldn’t get closer to a reasonable price, then I wouldn’t be interested in the transaction of that particular vehicle. Without reasoning, without consideration, without suggesting other options or gathering more information on what we were looking for, he aggressively shot up out of his chair, and said, “ok thanks,” then tried to snuff me with that dismissing “I’m the boss ‘round here handshake" (which was pathetic) and abruptly stormed away from us. This to me was a message that he didn’t need our business. My wife and kids, who were standing right there with me were as shocked as I was. Even our salesman, (who was incredibly nice and professional) had a look of disbelief on his face. He followed me out to my car as we walked out to leave and apologized and tried to rekindle our conversation — but it was too late. I was done. I also work in retail and know of the pressure to meet the bottom line. However, I also know that maintaining a fantastic relationship with your customer is the only way to drive sales, and in the end, survive — because your competitors will (and have) dedicated themselves to just that. I know that this might have been a one off case at Fletcher Honda, but it really burned a bridge with me and the Fletcher name. I will also disclose that after this ordeal, I’ve spoken with at least 3 other people that I know personally (one a former salesman at Fletcher) that had similar “bad” experiences with this dealership in particular. I want to spend my hard earned money with a dealership that is willing to work with me and treat myself and my family like customers, not just a “deal”. That’s a factor of customer equity. This is not a review of scorn or anger — it’s one of information. Information on how a customer and his family perceives Fletcher Honda's business practices on an average visit. Perception is worth a lot in this area. On a final note; on inspection of the Fletcher Honda website, I noticed 2 statements that were quite impressive and boldly displayed. The mission statement; which vows that Fletcher Honda will build its Auto Group one customer at a time by offering "unparalleled customer service in your sales and service departments" and the first “Fletcher Pledge” is to “Excellent Customer Service.” While my experience with my salesman began with a reflection of these ideals, the few moments spent with the sales manager was a direct contradiction to this mission and pledge and was enough to inspire me to avoid future visits to this dealership and to review my experience, detailing the events that took place.

In and out quickly Bought a used Kia Forte with very low miles for my daughter.

Researched online, knew it was what we wanted, got the extended warranty, had our financing arranged prior to going to the dealership and still got a better deal with their Finance team. Overall, a good experience. But buying a car is like buying anything: if you know what you want before you get there and make sure you're covered before you leave, you'll probably have a better time of it. More

Lies, lies and more lies I purchased a 2009 Hyundai Sonata from the used lot. Unknown until later and in hope of some integrity coming from the dealership, I found so many thi I purchased a 2009 Hyundai Sonata from the used lot. Unknown until later and in hope of some integrity coming from the dealership, I found so many things wrong with it that were undisclosed to me at purchase. It was sold to me on same day as it being traded in to them. Windows switches were broken, center console lid broken, preset buttons on radio didn't work, small dent in tear bumper cover (not a big deal), however the car had been wrecked as well. The dealership had to order me a steel front bumper, core support was broke in 3 places, had a bent rim on the rear and it became obvious when I got new tires and it was moved to the front. Just a very bad buying experience and an untrustworthy sales team. More
UNETHICAL...BEWARE!!! Only gave 1 star because it was mandatory. This is by far the worst, most unethical dealership I have ever stepped foot in. I originally went in at 10 Only gave 1 star because it was mandatory. This is by far the worst, most unethical dealership I have ever stepped foot in. I originally went in at 10am to look at car that I was told they just got in on trade (hadn't been detailed yet or anything), I told the salesman I was VERY interested and he said he would take the car and have it detailed and inspected so I could take it for a test drive later that day. It now is about 4pm in the afternoon and he calls to tell me the car won't be done and I can come in beginning of the week to take it for a test drive and see it, I agreed and said goodbye. The salesman then calls back 10 minutes later and says his manager will match another vehicles price on the lot to the one I was looking at and I can come take a look. Even though this vehicle had a few more problems, and higher mileage (58k compared to 65k) I agreed to go in and look. I went in, drove the car, liked it, and made a few offers that were rejected. As we closed on that negotiation, I inquired about the status of the earlier car and possible negotiations of that car since I was there. The salesman then proceeds to tell me that his coworker actually just sold that car as I was sitting there. Are you serious? The car that I came in at 10am to look at and drive and make an offer on and was told to come back Monday after it was detailed, was just SOLD??? This unethical, garbage of a car lot and manager had lied to my face multiple times while trying to sell me a more expensive car and all the while they were selling the original car that I was looking to buy 7 hours earlier that morning before it had a price or was detailed or anything. Don't shop here people, do yourself a favor, drive 10 minutes to other places, go across the road, down the road, there are hundreds of other car lots that will be ethical, honest, and treat you right. This car lot didn't earn my business, nor any of my colleges, business partners, business acquaintances, anyone that I come in contact with and the words car comes up (which it does a lot with men), I will be sure to retell my store of Fletcher and their unethical behavior with no respect for the customer or how you handle business matters in every conversation I have, social media, reviews, reports, online car sites, anywhere possible that might help someone else avoid buying a car or being treated that way I was treated at their car lot.

BEWARE Went to Frank Fletcher last year to get my oil changed on my BRAND NEW Kia Sorento it was me FIRST oil change and the people at Frank Fletcher didn't Went to Frank Fletcher last year to get my oil changed on my BRAND NEW Kia Sorento it was me FIRST oil change and the people at Frank Fletcher didn't tighten the oil cap and the next day all of the oil had drained out of my car and I was stranded 45 min away on the side of the road. I had to have my car towed and taken back to Fletcher to have oil put back in my car. I didn't even get my $60 back for the oil change. I will NEVER go back there to get my oil changed, but the place were I now go doesn't carry my oil filter so I recently stop by Frank Fletcher again just to pick up an oil filter. I told them the make, model and year of my car and the guy in the service dept sold me the wrong kind of oil filter. When I went back to get my money back for the unused oil filter they would not refund me back my money. WORST SERVICE EVER..... More
Very Disappointed with the Lies I think their service department just tries to swindle more money from a customer every time they take their car in. I recently took my 2012 honda acc I think their service department just tries to swindle more money from a customer every time they take their car in. I recently took my 2012 honda accord to get the tpms light checked. At first the sales rep told there will no charge and I could bring my honda as my times needed to get this reset and they would do it for free. Nice Lie. Later on the service rep came out and told it would 97 dollars to reset and check for issues. I agreed, they did the noted resets and I came out with a 116 dollar bill with some 9 dollars worth of miscalleneous charges I didnot understand. Just drove my car for two miles and the light came back on again. I took my car a couple of days later and this time they gave a estimate of another 140 dollars to get the sensor replaced in one of the tires. I m not sure what they did earlier and why they didn;t tell me the sensor needed replacement the first time. I have seen first hand the diagnostic tool used in resetting these sensors, and I really can;t understand why a 2 minute job would cost a customer 100 dollars. Beyond that I hate being lied to, I don;t think I m taking my vehicle to them ever again. Further more, even if I buy a Honda in the future it is never going to be from Fletcher in Bentonville for sure. More
