I was told I was approved and that no money was needed to be put down. When I get there they tell me that I need $1500.00 with a 700 or 800 car payment are you kidding me. So I waited for about 30 minutes for the sales guy to come back and walked out...I was then called and asked where did I go I told them i was no longer interested. Joe begged me to come back so I did just to listen to what he had to say...when I arrived back, he had a car waiting for me to test drive which I did not want but I drove it anyway. So after 4 hours of going back and forth, Sam came over and said if you put $500.00 down I can get you as a first time buyer with KIA so I decided to do it. After have the car for 9 days, they call me to tell me that the loan was not approved with Kia and that I needed to sign papers with a new lender so I as I asked did I need to bring anything and was told no just needed to resign. I was told I needed to be there on that day or the loan was dead. So when I arrived, Aaron asks if I was explained anything which I was not just threatening texts from Sharks chicken which is Sams cell phone number...he explains that I need to put another $1000.00 down which I did not have so I gave him another $200.00. I told him that I get paid the following week and he could withdraw it then well they decided to take it on that same week and the cc declined. I then receive texts from Sam telling me if I did not pay they would come and get the car. (or I needed to borrow it from someone). I told him I would do an EFT with no response. The following day while at work, I get called by the receptionist that someone is there to pick up the car. I go out and talk to "Brian" and he tells me he is here to help me not hurt me. He said I don't have a tow truck so I am not taking it. I am required to put a GPS tracking device in it or I need to pick the car up. Of course the stupid person I am I said tracking device. He had me sign a form and told me the car would be back in 45 minutes well it never came back,,,,the dealership repoed the car! when i called to inquire about no one knew anything and I was going to call the police.

BUYERS BEWARE! This was the worst experience I have ever had with a dealership. I would NOT recommend purchasing from this dealership. They charged 18% interest to a This was the worst experience I have ever had with a dealership. I would NOT recommend purchasing from this dealership. They charged 18% interest to a first time buyer with a 700 plus credit score, sold them an over priced warranty and never gave them the paperwork. Ran their credit through 11 banks, and did NOT give the customer the best available interest rate. Instead, they sold them the vehicle at an extremely high rate. The car has a serious alignment issue and 2 bald tires. When I attempted to confront the dealership in person I was told the GM was not available (nor did she subsequently ever return my calls). I spoke to the "new car manager" who basically admitted the purchaser was eligable for a better interest rate but "took the deal" at 18% and told me "there is nothing you are going to be able to do about it now the deal has been funded". In my opinion they took advantage of a young, nieve first time buyer and in my opinion their actions may even be a violation of some sort of law or policy. Which I am currently looking into. When I told the "new car manager" that I would be contacting Federal and State agencies with regard to this deal, he told me "I was threatening him and I should not make threats because he is friends with a state offical (whom he named). Note: after leaving this dealership we found out that the applicant was eligible for a 1.5% car loan and eligible through a 2nd bank for an interest rate under 5% - both of which KIA previously ran her credit through and I speculate was aware of. Yet she was charged 18%!!! More

Hoodwinked I bought this car a month ago and they told me the car passed the inspection. I blew a tire and had to replace 3 of the 4 tires because the tread was I bought this car a month ago and they told me the car passed the inspection. I blew a tire and had to replace 3 of the 4 tires because the tread was too worn. The inspection I had at the dealership 3 days ago had all 4 tires at 6/32". I had the tread rechecked and the tread was at 3/32" for 3 and 9/32" on the last one. The tire years were 2014 for 3 tires and 2017 for the fourth tire. The owners manual says you should not have more than 4/32" difference between any of the tires. I was transferred to 4 different departments and no one knew what to do. One person told me the tread was checked in November and all four tires were measured at 9/32". They refused to correct the issue and instead talked to me like I was a child. Also, when I bought it the seat belt needed to be fixed and they said it was my fault but I only had it about 15 minutes and they almost refused to cover it. More

Got quite a few calls from Tiffany. She told me she was the manager of financing I believe. Told me I was approved for 0 down and everything. Which made me beyond happy. I called the day I would come. I spoke to Rachel her assistant. That's what she told me. I get there worked with Jerry. Everything was going smooth. I was told I would need to put a 1500$ down payment which sucked but I understood. I didn't have all the money so when I need which was 9 days later I called and spoke to Jerry. He told me he would get a list of cars in my budget and price range he said give him about 5 minutes. Two hours go by. No call so I call him. He said he got side tracked and that I needed a co signer. Which was never said before at all. If that was the case he could of told me all that xxxx is the beginning verse me waiting and getting my hopes up for no xxxx reason. I get everyone needs a job and to get paid...but people come here for transportation to get to work and home. Not something that y'all can just like and say this and that. Then stomp on people's emotions. Just liars! More
