Kia of Orange Park

I had my maintenance done there and they got me out of there within a hour. Thx Alex there within a hour. Thx Alex More

I had a good experience purchasing my car (from someone that is no longer there) this review is specifically for the service department. I purchased my car from them, and had all maintenance done there f that is no longer there) this review is specifically for the service department. I purchased my car from them, and had all maintenance done there for the first 2 and a half years because I wanted to make sure the warranty had no issues. I started to notice as I took it in every 5-6k miles that they were using a basic maintenance guide to make decision on what was needed, rather than looking at the car and making an actual decision. I took my car in a little early once because I was going on a long road trip and wanted to be touched up and the service tech said "Since I was between x and x they were going to do EVERYTHING on both lists." Now I had gotten the entire first list done the time before, so obviously that is a huge issue. He had it all written up and was ready for me to sign when I realized and called them out on it. I dug in a little deeper and asked why (according to the Kia Forte Owners Manual that comes WITH THE CAR) they were doing an overly aggressive maintenance schedule and "Fixing" things that were on their list, even though the KIA MANUAL did not recommend for another 20-30k miles? Nobody could answer that funnily enough. So Brian Rojas, the Service Center Manager came out, gave me his card, and said to make sure I go to him from now on, to make sure everything is done right. Still without answers, I left and just kept track of what was needed myself as I now know I have to do that as the techs cant be trusted to do what they are supposed to. Over the last 15-20k miles I have gotten oil changes at take5 due to time constraints, and have not had any other preventative maintenance done. This is very important. I went to the dealership last week to ask that my car be run through a full inspection (working with Brian as my tech) as it had not been inspected in quite some time. When I got there, there were two lights on, one for the brake light being out, and one for the daytime running light on the driver side. I told him I would leave the car there, they could handle the recalls, and do an inspection, to let me know if I needed anything. They offered a tire balance/rotation so I accepted. They said nothing further was needed, and I came back two days later to pick up the car. Well guess what was not done when I got there? The two lights. Neither had even been brough up! They completely ignored the dashboard saying "HEY CHECK THIS LIGHT OUT ITS NOT WORKING" and did not perform any kind of inspection. The person who drove my car around dismissed the notifications on the dashboard so I didn't even realize it till the next time I drove my car. I called furious that they clearly did not do an inspection, nor was the obvious work that needed doing done. The tech who was there offered to replace the two bulbs for free if I could come in Monday morning and so I did, 8:30. When I got there Brian told me that "Their inspection cant determine what is GOING to happen" even though the lights were already out when I brought the car in the first time. I let him know I had to leave by 11am, and if they could do a quick inspection and replace those bulbs I could come back another day if anything else needed replacing. At 10:45 he came back to the service room and said there was an issue with the wiring to the front bulb, so that fixture needed replacing, but the other is just a bulb changeout. So 2.5 hours of waiting that day, with CLEAR instruction beforehand and they couldn't even change a lightbulb. On top of that, that means all it took was a lightbulb change for the 2 days it was in the shop the prior week! This service group is a joke, absolutely unacceptable work. When you go to a service shop that you purchased your car from, you expect them to be the experts and do the critical task of taking care of your vehicle as it is needed. They cant even do their jobs properly. You guys need to seriously re-evaluate how you do business More

Sarah is amazing. She really knows a lot about the cars especially the PHEV! She worked with me for almost a year to find the right Sportage PHEV.

She even helped me set up all the new settings. She is top notch! More

Typical dealership so stand your ground. They will throw numbers at you and once you settle on something they will have you sign and then take it away without giving you a copy to refer back They will throw numbers at you and once you settle on something they will have you sign and then take it away without giving you a copy to refer back to at the time of signing. Take a picture of what you signed! Associates are nice but overall it was a long, tedious, and slimy process. I've tried to cancel the extra contracts they sold me four times since July and they do not acknowledge me. They still owe me $4k so I am currently looking into attorney's to assist. Go in with armor on; or even better, just go somewhere else. More

Poor customer service! If I could give Kia of Orange Park, zero stars, I would. Especially Kelton Powell. I purchased a vehicle six weeks ago. Chris P was my sales person If I could give Kia of Orange Park, zero stars, I would. Especially Kelton Powell. I purchased a vehicle six weeks ago. Chris P was my sales person and at the time my headlights didn’t work Chris and Kelton Powell assured me that they would fix it and bring it in the following Saturday which I did they had my car for over six hours just for them to tell me that it can’t be fixed and it is an electrical issue.( Per Yancy another manager) The state of Florida requires all dealership to sell cars that have working headlights so I was told to come back and speak with yancy because he was not in. Came back the following Saturday. They had my vehicle another six hours and it was not fixed this time. I spoke with Kelton Powell again and also Dennis Justice and they assured me my vehicle would be fixed a part had to be ordered and they would call me once the part was received. Two weeks went by. I never heard anything. I reached out. No response to my email and no call back. I finally spoke with someone in parts, and they told me a part was never ordered. In the meantime, I wasn’t able to speak with Kelton, Dennis or Yancey. They were never in the office supposedly. Today I finally spoke with Chris P and he goes on to say that Dennis and Yancey is no longer there and he had no idea. He then goes on to say that Kelton doesn’t recall the conversation with me and knew nothing about my headlights not working very unprofessional. They lack customer service and Kelton Powell is a liar. They sold me a faulty car and they knew it had issues with the headlights. Now they are refusing to fix it. Buyers beware especially a used car from Kia of Orange Park. More

Horrible service! I live in Melbourne, FL. My mom lives in St. Marys, GA. In response to a Kia Engine Class Settlement letter, I made an appointment to have the Fac I live in Melbourne, FL. My mom lives in St. Marys, GA. In response to a Kia Engine Class Settlement letter, I made an appointment to have the Factory Recall Campaign KSDS update installed on my mom's car. I drove 3.5 hours to St. Marys and picked my mom's car up. I drove 1 hour south to get to the dealership. I arrived at the dealership 30 minutes early for my appointment. First off, I was told that I didn't have an appointment. I showed the service advisor my confirmation email. He looked up my mom's VIN in his system and said that her car already had the KSDS udpate installed 2 years ago. Soooooo, why didn't the service advisor tell me this when I called. I understand it wasn't her "problem" that I live 3.5 hours away. It IS her problem to verify that I need the service that she is scheduling me for. What a total waste of time and money. Kia should reimburse me for all of the fuel I wasted and for the day of PTO that I had to take! Go somewhere else for your service. This one is horrible! More

This is my second time buying from KIA of Orange Park (KooP), Ive dealt with other dealers in the past but the level of attention and professionalism that KoOP provides is an absolute blessing. I am not (KooP), Ive dealt with other dealers in the past but the level of attention and professionalism that KoOP provides is an absolute blessing. I am not that close to this location to come to the dealership in person, where Sarah M. went above and beyond is meeting me at half the distance to make sure I get my new car. She did not have to do this but I really appreciate a place where people dont make you feel like just a customer but as a part of an extended family. She contacted me a few days later to make sure I was happy with the purchase and answer any questions. fast forward 2 years and my mileage was up but i wasnt done with the lease payments and i contacted her again, she was able to work her magic and get me on a 2023 model and once again she did not need to but met me halfway to make things easier. Im a proud second time KIA owner and I know her ambitions and motivations will take her places. I know next time someone asks for a recommendation of dealer and someone whom i trust my answer will continue to be Sarah M & the KoOP family. Thank you again! More
