to me that Jim did not even realize he didn’t properly obtain my signatures on the financial documents. Because of his mistake and delay, I couldn’t set up an account to start making my monthly payments. I had to come in again to re-sign the papers, and Jim assured me I could make my second monthly payment with him and he would make sure it would go through. I did not appreciate having to go back in to do this and of course Oscar stopped all communication aside from trying to rush me to get in.
Fast forward a couple weeks and Hyundai Finance keeps calling me saying that my payment was never posted, and now I have a late charge. I attempted to contact Jim, and I have never been able to reach him again EXCEPT of course when he needed me to come in. Mac stepped in since Jim was consistently unavailable and he said he would get it figured out, and ultimately he was able to get in writing that I would get a check with a refund. Over a month later, since Jim “handled” my second payment and two weeks since speaking to Mac, I still had nothing. No check, no follow through. Guest relations had to step in and get me a refund for the monthly amount + late payment. I had to come in yet again to get this refund. I was so annoyed at these constant inconveniences, miscommunication, and unavailability of Jim. Mac and Bridget were great. However I am now turned off from getting another car through Hyundai again in the future.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We sincerely apologize for the frustrations and inconveniences you encountered during your purchase and payment process. We’re glad that Mac and Bridget were able to step in and assist, but we understand that the repeated miscommunications and delays were frustrating and far from the experience we aim to provide. Your feedback is important, and we’ll be reviewing these issues internally to help improve communication and follow-through for all of our guests. We truly appreciate you taking the time to let us know.
Good service.
Just wish shuttle service was 2 ways. Or hopefully offer loan car too.

I felt that both listened and cared for what I was looking for. It’s nice to go to a dealership that has sales people who are inviting, caring, and empathetic to having been involved in a car accident. Even the person in finance (I believe his name is Mac) was helpful and effective at communicating the contract so that it was understandable. I highly recommend South Bay Hyundai for buying a car or leasing.
