me deeply dissatisfied, warranting a rating well below the minimum. Despite punctuality on my part for the scheduled 9:45 AM appointment regarding the ABS sensors on my 2016 Kia Sorrento, my experience was marred by prolonged delays. Despite arriving at 9:30 a.m., it was at 10:00 a.m. that my service advisor, Chris Watson, finally addressed my concerns.
After examining my vehicle, Chris informed me of two recalls and suggested a one-hour diagnostic for the sensor issue, to which I consented. Expecting updates, I provided my current contact number to replace the outdated one in their system. However, as the hours wore on, neither a call nor an update materialized.
By 1:00 PM, frustration peaked, prompting my attempts to reach Chris Watson directly via his provided line, to no avail; the line remained persistently busy. Turning to the primary service line, I was immediately placed on hold after each call. After numerous attempts, I finally spoke with a staff member who relayed Chris's supposed completion time of 4:00 PM. I expressed my bewilderment, having received no information on the diagnostic findings for the sensors.
By 3:00 PM, still without an update, I made several more unsuccessful calls, each ending with being put on hold. Desperate for resolution, I tried various departmental numbers but failed. At 4:00 PM, when I called again, I was abruptly transferred to Chris Watson's voicemail, a stark contrast to the earlier difficulty in reaching anyone. They knew it was my phone number and directly transferred me to his voicemail without speaking to me. This sequence of events led me to question the sincerity of their efforts, especially considering their apparent knowledge of my contact details throughout the day.
Feeling disregarded and disrespected, I visited the dealership at 5 p.m. Upon encountering Chris, he claimed to have attempted to reach me through calls, texts, and emails to approve a $636 repair for sensor replacement. I challenged the validity of his contact information, underscoring the miscommunication that plagued the entire ordeal.
At this juncture, I felt utterly disillusioned and dismissed by the entire experience. The level of service fell far below what any customer should expect, leaving a lasting impression of dissatisfaction and frustration.

Again 04-16-2024 same recall and still not done! I called the day before to make sure they had the part, I was told they have the part! I was told that they had 1 part but installed it on another car !! How many times will I have to go again. 1 of the second row seat is not attached! It has been defective since the 1st day I bought the car new. I tried to call the service manager Arthur Rosenthal, left a message but he never called me back!!

Disappointing service experience.
Had to return the car 2 times for the same reason. Manager never available. Not planning to go back.
