Very Disappointing Experience – Poor Service and Communication I recently had a terrible experience at Bulldog Kia. I purchased four new tires from them, and while they were installed correctly, Communication I recently had a terrible experience at Bulldog Kia. I purchased four new tires from them, and while they were installed correctly, things quickly went downhill from there. After the installation, I was told they couldn’t balance the tires because their lift was broken. I was assured they’d follow up the next week once it was fixed, so I made an appointment. When I returned for the follow-up, I was told the lift was still broken. No apologies, just an attempt to reschedule. I agreed to come back a third time, this time also for a service recall, hoping everything would finally be sorted out. After hours of waiting for the recall to be completed, I was informed yet again that the lift was still broken. This was beyond frustrating. I attempted to contact the manager and left them a voicemail, but my call was never returned. At this point, I decided I was done. I took my car elsewhere to get the tires balanced, and I’ll never do business with this dealership again. Terrible communication, no accountability, and just an all-around waste of time. Avoid this place if you value your time and expect basic customer service. More

Extremely pleased with my buying experience at Bulldog Kia! Joshua Bell was a fantastic salesman from start to finish. He was very professional, knowledgeable, and helpful while keeping great contact and Kia! Joshua Bell was a fantastic salesman from start to finish. He was very professional, knowledgeable, and helpful while keeping great contact and answering any questions I had. He made the purchase extra special for my teenage daughter who was getting this car coming off an accident and went the extra mile to make sure she was surprised. Patrick, also in the sales department, was very kind and helpful as well. I had previously used Kia for service with great results and will now also gladly buy another car here one day! I would also highly recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a vehicle. Thank you Josh for the phenomenal work…we love our Sorento! More

Exceptionally professional, patient, and up front about everything. My husband worked with Joe and Mike to get my parents a great deal on a lease. They made it all very seamless for them, went above and be everything. My husband worked with Joe and Mike to get my parents a great deal on a lease.

Called and scheduled a Kia recall appointment. I was quite specific as to which recall my vehicle qualified for. After driving 30 minutes to get there, I was told that the part was not available.

Told to call Parts in several days to confirm that the part was in. Totally unsatisfactory — why did I bother to schedule the appointment when the part was not in stock? More

James Montalvo made this my best car buying experience ever.

I traveled from Atlanta to purchase my 2025 K5 and the trip was well worth it I got the highest discount, the best trade-in value and the exact car and options I wantedBulldog was the only dealership in Georgia willing to put the deal together over the phone and by text. When we closed the deal in person, the numbers were exactly as we had discussed. In fact, they paid me more for my trade! Add me to the list of very satisfied Bulldog customers. On a personal note, James is a class act. His integrity and good nature are immediately apparent. It was a pleasure meeting you James! More
