The sale part was great Dwayne was kind And really helped out. Almost a month after getting my car I get harassed by the finance dept because now for whatever reason my paperwork is out of date. Maybe becaus out. Almost a month after getting my car I get harassed by the finance dept because now for whatever reason my paperwork is out of date. Maybe because they didn’t process in a timely manner I don’t know. But Addie was very rude she acted as if she was doing me a favor. I was getting harassed at work through my work email from her I kept telling her I emailed her what she asked for but every time she said she didn’t get it. I got phone call after phone call. She even threatened that the bank would come beget my car. Then I got calls from the bank saying that she didn’t submit some of the information and asked if I could send it to them directly since they couldn’t get it from her. It was a nightmare. I had to hang up on her twice because I work in healthcare and I was with patients. But she could not understand that either. Too bad she will be the reason I will never recommend this dealer to anyone. Dwayne is a big asset she is a nightmare More

In 2015 I leased my very first car with generation kia. It was a 2015 optima, I was 21 years old and was paying $330/mo for the car. I was happy with the car and was happy with the service I received. Fast It was a 2015 optima, I was 21 years old and was paying $330/mo for the car. I was happy with the car and was happy with the service I received. Fast forward 2 years and my lease is up so I finance a 2012 audi s4 through the dealership. All goes well, fast forward about 10 months later and I receive a message regarding my credit. I go to check it out and my credit dropped 90 points because of a delinquent payment. Now im very confused because I have never missed any sort of payment in my life especially not on the 2015 optima. I end up finding out Generation Kia shorted Kia Motor Finance $217 and were going after me for it. It took me 3 more months to get generation kia to even cut a check to the finance company and since 2017 I still have not had the remarks removed from my credit. Generation kia gave me the run around every single time, either sending me to the finance company saying I have to deal with them or telling me they will help and never getting back to me or coming up with excuses. The main person I was dealing with was the finance manager, Jamal Mageed. I have never had a worst customer experience in my life then when dealing with jamal. He could not have been more unprofessional with me during this experience and was constantly lying to me and changing his story. Fast forward to March 2020, I need a new car but I can’t get any cars at an affordable price because my credit is damaged from the mistake by generation kia. Jamal, knowing this because he’s been dealing with me for 3 years says there isn’t anything they can do for me and the 2020 kia optima I got is costing me $299/mo. That is $31 cheaper than when I was 21 with no credit. i have never missed a payment on any bill still and the only reason why my credit is bad is because of the issue with generation kia. Now, I am not writing this review because I made a mistake, and the dealership won’t help me so I’m now attacking them. No, this experience has made my life very difficult as you need credit for a lot of things and mine is damaged due to the carelessness of the dealership. In February 2021, I was finally able to speak to joe C and received a letter stating it was the dealership’s fault. I sent that into the finance company with all of the proof and paperwork needed to show this was 100% the dealer’s fault. Finance company came back and said there is not sufficient proof even with the letter. The dealership is telling me it is out of their hands and that they tried. They also said this happens often so if other people can fix it then I can figure out a way to fix it. I am appalled by how the dealership is handling this situation and I am not going to stop until they fix this issue. I will never buy another vehicle from this dealership and I will do my best to make sure everyone knows what they have put me through. 100% the worst experience I have had with a company and I 100% do not recommend using them. I urge everyone who has had a similar experience, or a negative experience about this dealership to please step forward. This is unacceptable behavior from this dealership and if it has happened to others like they said, then you should share your story to. More
