Our daughter goes to college at The University of Mississippi in Oxford. It’s a five hour drive straight south on 55. She’s been driving a Hyundai Tucson and it hasn’t been as reliable as we were h Mississippi in Oxford. It’s a five hour drive straight south on 55. She’s been driving a Hyundai Tucson and it hasn’t been as reliable as we were hoping. We wanted to find her a car with high safety ratings and very reliable. We know Volkswagen is a great car. My daughter called the Suntrup dealer in south county. We came in and met with Kai, he was amazing to work with. He helped us find the perfect model to fit exactly what we were looking for in a car. A safe reliable car for our daughter to drive back and forth from home to school. She will be driving the 2025 Volkswagen Tiguan. Not only is it safe and reliable but a very sharp looking car that I’m sure my daughter will drive for many years to come. Thanks again Team Suntup South County! More

Kai was helpful and professional - he had even taken the time to respond to me on a Sunday to get as much information going as possible. AJ was great, I was able to get the car at a great price and even mor time to respond to me on a Sunday to get as much information going as possible. AJ was great, I was able to get the car at a great price and even more protection for myself and the vehicle. After the sale, I was reviewing the paperwork and was extremely unhappy because I was not fully understanding the numbers (I had my wife and kids there and a lot was going on) and out of a lack of understand wrote a poor review. AJ called me the next day and re-walked me through the numbers again and made sure I understood the actual deal I got. I have a lot of respect for that - so in turn I am changing my review. More

My Title application which we have called about several times and nobody has called us back. The net price is incorrect, should be $19,005. I called the DMV in Jeff City about it and was told they tax on times and nobody has called us back. The net price is incorrect, should be $19,005. I called the DMV in Jeff City about it and was told they tax on the actual net price, so this must be changed. I was also told that I must bring the old title with me. I was never given one! I won’t do business with a dealership that ignores the many phone calls and never returns the calls or takes care of the two problems I’m left with. More
