Buyer beware, wrong size tires on purchased car. I bought a used car from Patterson Kia of Arlington, and they had put new tires on it. Later on, I discovered they had put the wrong size tires on it I bought a used car from Patterson Kia of Arlington, and they had put new tires on it. Later on, I discovered they had put the wrong size tires on it, and so now when I have an issue with just one tire, I am being forced to purchase an entire new set. Patterson will not make it right either. If they really cared about their customers like "family" so they claim, they would do what is right and put the correct size on my car. Besides the replacement issue, since I have tires on my car that are smaller than the manufacturer specification, my speedometer and my odometer are incorrect. Shame on you, Patterson Kia!!! More

Buyer beware READ this before you even step foot on this dealer lot!! My daughter who is a single mom of a 4 year old boy had been looking for a used car for a few READ this before you even step foot on this dealer lot!! My daughter who is a single mom of a 4 year old boy had been looking for a used car for a few weeks and we chose a Saturday that we were both free which is very rare these days. So on Saturday February 25th we hit the road to look at cars. We visited 2 other dealerships before we landed at Patterson Kia in Arlington, TX. We looked at 3 different small SUV’s that were in her budget and she narrowed it down to two. We pulled them side by side and compared them and in my mind it was a no brainer. Pick the one with the lower mileage and the 10yr/100k warranty. She agreed and we went inside with the salesman to start the paperwork. As we are sitting down filling out all of the paperwork the salesman is called over to the manager’s office. He walks back and says “I’m sorry but the couple that was here looking at the car before you CALLED back and said they want the car. Mind you, we are already doing the paperwork to purchase it and they “called” and said they wanted it. I was not happy and ready to walk out. My daughter on the other hand was tired of looking and it was late so she opted to go with the other SUV that she had been looking at earlier. At this point, I ask the salesman if they would match the warranty that was on the Kia to the Hyundai that we purchased. He spoke with the manager and came back and said they would do that since they sold the other car out from under us. Needless to say we go through the rest of the buying process and while we are sitting with the finance person I ask about the warranty and he said they do not have a “free” warranty but they will sell us one. He then proceeds to put on the pressure to sale the warranty which would push the payments above her budget. Again, I’m ready to walk out but my daughter says no. This is when the fatherly side of me should have taken control but didn’t. This was around 9:30pm on Saturday and I had a flight to catch the next morning so we finish the paperwork and we leave. The next day I thought more about what had happened and felt anger just take over. I felt taken advantage of and cheated and lied to and we let it happen. I could have easily got up and walked out but she needed the car. They knew this and they also knew they were not selling just one car but two so why do anything for us. First of all, why would they choose to sell to someone that “called back” when I’m right there doing the paperwork to purchase? Then, why lie to me and say they will match the warranty and then pretend like they had no idea what I was talking about? I’ve purchased many cars and have never been treated like this before. I will say that RJ the salesman was no part of this and was very pleasant to work with. He even bought us dinner. But unfortunately, after this experience I will never purchase another car from this dealership. I wish we had walked out and taken our money somewhere else but it’s too late at this point. More

And he went above and beyond looking for just the right car for our daughter. I would highly recommend him to anyone! He was a delight to work with! D. LaFond More
High Integrity I purchased a car from them 2 years ago and yesterday I saw a car that was advertised on their website that I was interested in. However, when I got I purchased a car from them 2 years ago and yesterday I saw a car that was advertised on their website that I was interested in. However, when I got there, there was a big mix up and misunderstanding. The long story short is that to make up for the misunderstanding they went above and beyond, took a loss on another car, just to make sure we were happy. Hats off to them, because you never see businesses bend over backward for their customers anymore. Enough to say that I will always be returning to them when I need a new car. Thank you Patterson (Kevin and his team!!) More
Old School Tactics The only thing they didn't do was throw my keys on the roof. Stall tactics. Withholding of rebates. Ran my credit EIGHT times!!! Then to throw more ga The only thing they didn't do was throw my keys on the roof. Stall tactics. Withholding of rebates. Ran my credit EIGHT times!!! Then to throw more gas on the fire, They took a deal we had reached for $288 a month and when my wife and daughter went up there the next day to sign the papers, Ramrodded, humiliated, and generally wore down my wife. They made her feel ignorant, and she is not. They talked down to her, the main offender being a finance guy named, Edwin Pineda. When he was done with my loved ones, the price was THREE HUNDRED NINETY NINE DOLLARS A MONTH!! l Long story short, I went up there, and they fixed the deal back like it was originally agreed upon. I won't waste time calling them all names, but based on my experience, Patterson Kia is the worst car buying experience I've had in 44 years of buying cars. And in that time I've bought LOTS of cars. Oh, and they fired the only decent person we dealt with during this ordeal, Thomas Whitehead, cause he wouldn't work their slave hours. Thomas, holla, I have 2 more cars to buy, soon! More

Surprisingly simple, straight-forward and very satisfactory! This is my third new vehicle purchase from Patterson KIA in Arlington, TX. I like the dealership because of its people and its outstanding customer se This is my third new vehicle purchase from Patterson KIA in Arlington, TX. I like the dealership because of its people and its outstanding customer service. For instance, my salesperson was Kenneth Eborka. He approached me in the maintenance bay after I had had an oil change and an alignment done, and was about to leave in my 2015 KIA Sportage. He asked if that was my car, and I said yes. He asked if I liked it. I said, uh, yes. He said come and let me show you something that will wow you. I had a few minutes, but did not have any intention of buying a car that afternoon. So I went with Kenneth into the showroom and was indeed wowed! The 2017 model Sportage is gorgeous! We had to go take a test drive, just because. I fell in love with it! He is good at what he does, let me tell you. Everyone I dealt with that day, from Jarrid Vinson, Assistant Service Manager, to Kevin Polite, New Car Director, to Robert Hall, Finance Manager, and of course, Kenneth Eborka, salesman extraordinaire, was kind, thoughtful, helpful, patient, and very professional. The whole process was smooth, orderly, not rushed or harried; just comfortable and, again, professional. Very impressive! More
