Horrible experience Had to have my car towed 2x's in three months. This time it was brought in early Wednesday afternoon, had to call on Thursday afternoon to find out th Had to have my car towed 2x's in three months. This time it was brought in early Wednesday afternoon, had to call on Thursday afternoon to find out the status. They could not find out what the noise was, but they did find two issues that needed to be repaired. I told them why it was towed in Dec and the service guy was going to tell the tech and get right back to me. Again, after 24 hrs of no contact, I called the dealer to find out the status of my car. They were waiting to hear from the extended warranty to go ahead with the repairs. I mentioned one of the issues was something they repaired in Dec. My car was finally ready at 4:30pm on Friday. When I went to pick it up, they had washed it on one of the coldest days of the winter. My doors were frozen, my mirrors were frozen, and my windshield had frost on the inside of the car. I have had nothing but trouble with this car and service has not been much better. The car is only 6 years old, 56,000 miles. I would never recommend this car or this dealership. More

Warranty Our radio went out and while there is a 5 year 60,000 mile warranty on the car, the radio warranty is limited to only 36,000 miles. A pretty crappy w Our radio went out and while there is a 5 year 60,000 mile warranty on the car, the radio warranty is limited to only 36,000 miles. A pretty crappy warranty when they carve out things. Who would expect a radio to crap out after 2 years. I'm glad my other car is a FORD More
Greg Ciullo helped me lease a new Forte, and the experience was the best car-buying experience I have ever had or heard of. Greg has a calm, understanding, and approachable demeanor that many other experience was the best car-buying experience I have ever had or heard of. Greg has a calm, understanding, and approachable demeanor that many other auto sales associates could learn from. He quickly ascertained my needs and wants, and never forgot them or tried to talk me into anything. I felt like Greg was working with and for me, which made the whole process very smooth, enjoyable even. After arriving at a price I liked, I worked with Dave Roth in the finance office, where I was pleasantly surprised to find that my actual monthly payment would be slightly lower than the agreed price. If ever asked for auto dealer tips, I will recommend Arlington Kia as the first, best choice. More
Initially, the issues I had with my car was a chirping sound that was issues from the rear. To stop this sound, the service team at Kia recommended to get my brakes replaced. They replaced my brakes and e sound that was issues from the rear. To stop this sound, the service team at Kia recommended to get my brakes replaced. They replaced my brakes and ensured me that I would be good to go. Now, approximately 15 months and 22,000 mlies later, the brakes on my same car need to be replaced again. Meanwhile, the chirping noise never went away. What's more is that the other Kia dealership I went to, to get a second opinion, agrees with the brakes needing to be replaced, and was trying to charge me $100 more than the Arlington Kia for the exact same service. What brakes should be replaced after 22,000 miles?!?! Incredibly infuriating encounters. I'll be surprised if I ever buy another Kia, let alone visit another Kia service center. Very disappointing experiences. More

GREAT service! DAVID ERICKSON and EDDY JASIM were EXCEPTIONAL! I just finished my battle with cancer and undergoing 6 months of radiation treatment. I shopped around other dealerships and often left EXCEPTIONAL! I just finished my battle with cancer and undergoing 6 months of radiation treatment. I shopped around other dealerships and often left feeling like they didn't listen to the type of car I wanted or just being treated like a idiot. This was NOT the case at Arlington Kia! David Erickson listened to me. He learned what I was looking for and offered suggestions and solutions to my needs. After I made my choice of what type of car I wanted, Eddy Jasim made the process SO easy. Both David and Eddy showed patience and answered all my questions even though I asked the same ones several times due to my radiation fatigue. THEY DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I WAS GOING THROUGH (medically) UNTILL AFTER I PURCHASED THE KIA!! I STRONGLY RECOMMEND TO ANYONE IN THE MARKET TO PURCHASE A CAR TO SEE THESE FINE GENTLEMAN AT Bob Rohrmans Arlington Kia in Palatine! I am just a normal guy like all of you out there. Visit this dealership (David and Eddy) and save yourself headaches and time!! Thanks Guys! Sean McCann Palatine, IL More
One of the things that no one likes to do is shop for a car, new or used. I've done my share of shopping and buying and have never had a great experience, until I met Steve Krywaruczenko. Steve was very car, new or used. I've done my share of shopping and buying and have never had a great experience, until I met Steve Krywaruczenko. Steve was very professional, polite and friendly thru out the process, right down to showing my wife and I the nuances of the controls, options and operation of the vehicle. I feel confident that I received a good deal and am satisfied with the whole process because of Steve. We will be back! GOOD JOB! Al & Karin Discianno More
