Westgate Kia of Wake Forest

I had such a great experience buying my new Kia Niro. My sales person was Heather and she was phenomenal. She has a wealth of knowledge and so personable. She was honest and fair, and made finding my new ca sales person was Heather and she was phenomenal. She has a wealth of knowledge and so personable. She was honest and fair, and made finding my new car absolutely wonderful. I also want to acknowledge Duncan and Ramon. Answering questions and looking into things to make sure about how something worked (with everything being electronic there's a lot to learn), they couldn't have been more accommodating or helpful. Thank you Heather for "holding my hand" through this whole process. Great all round experience at Westgate Kia. More

Run from this dealer as fast as you can. They pitch free oil changes for life but what they dishonestly don't tell you during the sales cycle is that you have do do all scheduled maintenance through them. T oil changes for life but what they dishonestly don't tell you during the sales cycle is that you have do do all scheduled maintenance through them. They also force you to go on the schedule for extreme conditions which doubles the maintenance cycle. They do have a form that explains about the scheduled maintenance but it's buried in the pile of papers you need to sign at purchase closing and they go past it very quickly. Totally unethical and dishonest. More

The Westgate Kia Core Values = Dishonesty and Unethical Business Practices. My wife had been going back-and-forth with Westgate Kia for a few days with regards to a used vehicle in their inventory. A Business Practices. My wife had been going back-and-forth with Westgate Kia for a few days with regards to a used vehicle in their inventory. After some discussion via email, my wife extended an offer for the vehicle countering their original quote. Their response to my wife's counter-offer was to increase the price by approximately $1k from their original quote. I find this kind of practice deeply dishonest, as they obviously felt they had my wife baited in and then went for more (typical slime ball car salesmen tactic, in addition to thinking they can jerk a woman around). The increase of the price was done by their "sales manager" Ramon Gavilan. Needless to say, we walked away from pursuing this vehicle, as we will not do business with dishonest companies and their dishonest sales manager. So if you're a buyer on the market for a new car, beware of this dealership. They will try and take you for a ride. More

Great company, they've always serviced my car and been knowledgeable with my requests. Even have had my care returned to me cleaner than when I've dropped it off.

I brought my 2015 Soul in for a recall and asked them to rotate the tries and balance. Upon arrival they took in the car and than gave us a ride home, They said the work would take 4 hours.at 3:30 I called rotate the tries and balance. Upon arrival they took in the car and than gave us a ride home, They said the work would take 4 hours.at 3:30 I called to see if our car was ready and the service manager said yes he will send a car to get us. Upon arrival at the service center, he said there will be no charge! I said what about the tire rotation and the balance, he said it was not on the order. The young man that took our car in said "yes it was I entered it." All's we got was an apology, My husband asked it we could do it another time and he said yes. Never! did they offer to take the car back and do the tire rotation and balance at that time. We were just handed the receipt. After having our car 6 hours you would have thought everything was done. I called Saturday morning about a question I had about the receipt... It said under the recall work CANNOT DUPLICATE CUSTOMER CONCERN AT THIS TIME...I called and asked about it, and I was told by Gonzalo that it was a default in the system, that it was a new system. I asked him if the recall I had done in November was the same thing as I brought it in for Friday, he said no.. The work was done it's just a system default. And I brought up the other work that was not done, and he flat out LIED! he said he offered to to the tire rotation and balance right than. He did not! What a joke this service center is! We thought we would give than a second chance to make things right big mistake! There service center has gone to pot since changing there name to WESTGATE... They have way to many excuses. Why they don't honor Chris Leigh KIA oil changes, why there receipts look different etc. More

After a good purchase experience, my remaining experience with Kia and Westgate Kia has been the worst automotive experience I have ever had. I purchased a certified pre-owned Kia Soul EV (all electric) from with Kia and Westgate Kia has been the worst automotive experience I have ever had. I purchased a certified pre-owned Kia Soul EV (all electric) from Westgate over a year ago. I can honestly tell you that I do love the vehicle...when it is working/driving but the first time I had an issue and needed to bring it in for service, I found out that they were not not certified to work on electric Kia's and the closest dealership was in Maryland. Long story short, since owning the car for approximately a year and a half and having to have the car serviced 3 times, I have to have my car shipped to MD/VA every time, it takes over a month every time to get the car serviced and during this time, I am not able to get a loaner or rental so I am left car-less for over 3 months of my ownership so far while my car is being serviced. Worst part is, I was NEVER told this when buying the car. I am also trying to figure out how a non EV certified dealer sold a certified pre-owned EV car? I have tried reaching out to them for help and even emailed asking for the GM to contact me. I even reached out to their sales team explaining my frustration and they brushed it off while trying to overcharge me for a new lease. I am a long time Westgate customer and have purchased vehicles from their other dealerships but this will be the last and final purchase from Westgate and Kia. Buyers be ware. More

I had some problems when Westgate took over from Chris Leith, and stopped going there. This week I decided to give them another try, since one of the things I needed was a new radio and I wanted the facto Leith, and stopped going there. This week I decided to give them another try, since one of the things I needed was a new radio and I wanted the factory one. Josh and Danny gave me great service, they have won my business back. I have a Kia and Chevy, and they are able to service them both for me as Gilbert is a Chevy tech and always does a great job also. More

I had the best experience with Heather Shaw and Jennifer Richardson. They were both highly responsive, professional, efficient and worked hard and fast to get me the best deal on my new Telluride. It was Richardson. They were both highly responsive, professional, efficient and worked hard and fast to get me the best deal on my new Telluride. It was a long and exhausting process with other dealerships and I wish I had saved the headache and the hassle and come to them first. They both restored my faith in car salesman! More
