Fast, Friendly, Helpful, and Informative Such a great experience. I drove to Kia of South Austin to look at some upgrade vans for my large family - they had ample stock and were in an area Such a great experience. I drove to Kia of South Austin to look at some upgrade vans for my large family - they had ample stock and were in an area teeming with dealerships. We arrived just after the dealership opened on Saturday morning. Esteban Alanis greeted us outside very warmly - literally. The heat was BLISTERING that day, but Esteban never showed that it affected him. He waited patiently for us outside while to transferred three car seats for a test drive (before we signed the paperwork) and while we transferred our belongings to our new vehicle from the old one (after we signed the lease). Esteban took the time to go over all of the amazing features in my new vehicle; he listened intently and was responsive to our questions. While we sat in his office, he was pleasant and always kept us updated on where we were in the car-leasing process (which was completely new to us). Another salesperson brought balloons to our young children while we waited - THANK YOU to whoever that was! You are a life saver. There is obviously a family-friendly culture being developed here. We settled on leasing a brand new Sedona - something I was certain I'd never be able to afford - after talking to Director James, who is upbeat, relatable, and obviously knowledgeable. The staff really came together and worked some amazing deals for us; we are under our previous car payment and have a MUCH nicer van than before. Make-ready on my new vehicle was perfect. Tara in finance did a great job explaining the paperwork. I went into her office first while my husband stayed in the waiting area with our children, and then I waited while he signed the lease. Tara had no problem explaining the terms twice and was very accommodating and friendly. She thoroughly explained the details of our warranties and dent/ding/interior repair "insurance". This is an excellent investment, especially for those planning to lease. I was very impressed with my experience at Kia of South Austin, and will definitely be back when it's time to trade in another vehicle. Thank you Esteban, James, and Tara! More

Deceptive I am foreigner person, so i did not know how 'scamy' process of buying car could be in US. So this dealership take advantage of it completely. In I am foreigner person, so i did not know how 'scamy' process of buying car could be in US. So this dealership take advantage of it completely. In details 1) When you speak with sales person/sales manager they discussed with you one terms/payments. When you come to sign papers its completely different terms, with different financing, with additional options. In my case what i end up paying was 30% more per month than what we discuss with sales person (1900$ package, with market value around 700$ as previous reviewer say it's only one trick, they have more of that) 2) They give me terrible price on trade in, saying that they give me a discount on new car, which turned out to be not discount, but lowering warranty terms. 3) They give me trade in paper to sign, before i see real terms on new car. So when i realize how bad deal is, i basically out of options (they already own my old car, so only option was go home on my legs) 4)They are not interested in giving your optimal financing terms, because of affiliation with banks. When i start to be angry, finance guy spend like 2 min with bank representative in online chat and lower my interest a bit. I bet he can do even more, but dealership seems to have some sort of commission, so they are interested in give you high possible interest rate you will agreed on. Why 2 star's? Because staff is generally friendly and positive. Answer your questions e.t.c. So if you plan to go here, it will be positive experience if you do your home work 1)You should know fair price of vehicle you want to buy 2)You should know fair price of traded in vehicle (your old car) 3)You should know fair financing terms applicable to you(better to look like as cash buyer) 4)You should know fair pricing of different car options (car maintenance over year e.t.c) 5)Dont ever sign anything before you got full package of documents and you see all terms clearly (it happens in place they called 'finance', where person hand you over loan terms on bank paper) 6)Always be ready to just stand up and leave if you dont like something If you will follow this rules you will have good experience with them, otherwise you will end up paying extra on every step of the process.

Poor service Air conditioning went out. Took in for repair and was told a small part needed to be replaced. Ordered and when went to replace we were contacted that Air conditioning went out. Took in for repair and was told a small part needed to be replaced. Ordered and when went to replace we were contacted that all the wires were corroded and it would be 4500.00 to fix. I refused stating that how can wires corrode like that. Shrug of the shoulders "It happens. I requested further review from KIA and was told "sorry we can't help you". More
