After looking at a used one on the lot, my salesmen Steve suggested the possibility of going new. I didn't think that was possible with my budget in mind, but after running the numbers my payment was about the same on the new car!! I would have bought the used car and been happy im sure, but to me it shows that the dealer really cared about what was really the best scenario for me. Thank you kia of east hartford and staff!!

I visited a Kia dealer closer to my house where i was led around the lot to look at 20 different Sorentos. After a hour we finaly found one i was interested in but it had more options then i originally requested. I didnt want to pay more for options i didnt need, so i left. Then i E-mailed Carlos at Kia of East Hartford. I told him what i wanted and set up an appointment. He listened to my needs and found me the perfect car the first time. 2 hours later i was driving home my new Sorento. Thank you Kia of East Hartford!! More

Uninformed and useless staff, cant be trusted Uninformed and useless staff, that do not keep there word and can't be trusted. First thing I noticed looking at the car was a dent in the side. "y Uninformed and useless staff, that do not keep there word and can't be trusted. First thing I noticed looking at the car was a dent in the side. "yea not a problem we can get that out before you buy the car" alright I say, but it never happened. then they were going to reimburse me, and eventually stopped responding to email. I was from out of state, but they ensured me that the registration and taxes would still be able to be taken care of. It was not till i drove all the way there that they said this was not possible after telling me the final price over the phone. This final price had included fees and other charges that Luis vega had initially told me were included in the sticker price. Worst part was when I finally decided to buy the car, the Manager changed a 4 to a 9 making the sticker price of the car $500 more than advertised. Unfortunately for me I didn't notice until after I signed the paperwork. Since the Manager had left there was nothing the Assistant manager or the salesman could do to change the price, so they claimed. and they would not let me leave with the car unless i payed the full amount. Again ensuring me that the manager would be able to send me a check for the difference. Maintenance on the car is another thing. I bought my car right after a scheduled service interval. I asked if they had done the required work, at the time they sold it to me the answer was yes, after calling their service center that answer quickly turned to " no we didnt replace that filter, we only are required to do the bare minimum safety features. were not required to perform the scheduled maintenance" More

The sales person was very nice and friendly but the sales manager Tom was cold and quite frankly looked annoyed that I was asking for a lower price on a vehicle that I saw at another dealer but was newer. Ma manager Tom was cold and quite frankly looked annoyed that I was asking for a lower price on a vehicle that I saw at another dealer but was newer. Made me feel very uncomfortable and after talking to my wife, I left. Would not recommend this dealership at all. More

We had a great experience with Luis. He was not pushy, and did not come across like a "used car salesman." He worked hard to make us comfortable and was very personalbe. Our only problem is that we did and did not come across like a "used car salesman." He worked hard to make us comfortable and was very personalbe. Our only problem is that we did not get a second key, and they are about $125.00 to purchase. More
