I would never ever recommend Bulldog Kia to anyone ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They were a complete rip off! I went in to purchase a car in which I did.... however they were very misleading with the ans ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They were a complete rip off! I went in to purchase a car in which I did.... however they were very misleading with the answers to the questions I was asking. They pretended not to know which bank was financing my car which I thought was very odd. Mind you I'm a first time buyer of a vehicle so I thought maybe it was just me. I was also lied to about my GAP insurance! I was told that he was going to give it to me for FREE and when I reviewed my paper work I was charged $900 for it! They told me the car I have was the only car I could get.... they never let me walk around the lot to see ANY cars that I may have been interested in. Instead he brought me the car and said this is what you can get. So after research I found out that, that was infact a lie also my car was $21, 000.00 I'm sure they had other cars I would have liked for around that same price if not less! So now I'm stuck with a car I barely like because I was mislead on my other options of cars. My interest rate is ridiculous and when asked about that I was told they didn't have that information either...which was also a lie! I really feel like I was robbed and taken advantage of by bulldog Kia because of the fact that I am a female and most importantly a first time buyer. I definitely should have followed my first mind and went with Honda I'm sure they would have treated me 100% better! I will never ever deal with Bulldog Kia again!!!!!! If I need any work done on my car I will go to Kia in Atlanta. I would never recommend them to anyone unless you want to be lied to and taken advantage of!!!!!!! A total disappointment! :( More

I could SAM!!! I wanted to take a moment to thank you for helping me in buying my car and for your support in the car buying process. I love my car. I couldn't be happier. You were so helpful and made the whole process comfortable. I like the fact that you are not pushy, you are REAL and really care about your customer! You have a friendly, calm, warm spirit. It was easy to talk to you about that I was looking for and what I could logically do. I didn't feel judged or like you were irritated about helping me. You have alert and present the whole process. You talked to me and my family like we were REAL people not just a number or quota. Again, Thank you so much!!! I very appreciate you and your caring nature. You are a great addition to the Kia team. Kia should be honored to have you be a part. Please pass this on to your supervisor! I want him/her to know how helpful and supportive you were in the whole process. Thank you. Emily Long More
World Class Customer Service! My wife and I went to have our 2012 Sorento serviced and had no intention of looking at another car. We left that day with another 2014 Sorento SX and my wife absolutely loves our 2012 Sorento serviced and had no intention of looking at another car. We left that day with another 2014 Sorento SX and my wife absolutely loves it. Jonathon Pace was our salesman and he made the entire process painless and really exemplified world class customer service. He drove 2 hours to go get the exact car my wife wanted and delivered it to us. He also had my wife come back in so he could explain all the features in the car to make sure that she was comfortable with it. This dealership has earned my business for a lifetime. I just referred my parents to Jonathon and now they are looking to get a 2014 Kia Optima. More

I was not prepared to purchase an automobile on the same day I went to look, but Sam Rivera greeted me on the lot and in no time, he made me feel very comfortable. Sam answered all of my questions and at th day I went to look, but Sam Rivera greeted me on the lot and in no time, he made me feel very comfortable. Sam answered all of my questions and at the same time, asked me alot of questions in order to help me figure out what kind of car would best fit my needs. He's a very good listener and that's important in sales! I ended up selecting the 2013 Soul and I love it! Thank you Sam and the staff at Bulldog Kia for making my car shopping experience a very pleasant one! More

I live just northwest of Atlanta, and I made the drive to the Athens area to see the folks at Bulldog Kia. My father works in the auto industry, and when I told him I was thinking of buying a Kia, he recomme the Athens area to see the folks at Bulldog Kia. My father works in the auto industry, and when I told him I was thinking of buying a Kia, he recommended them immediately. After comparing their prices to other Kia dealers in the state, I agreed that they should be the first place I went to look for a vehicle. Coming from over an hour away, I worked with Paige from their Internet Department to narrow down what I would want to look at once I arrived at the dealership. When I got there, she introduced me to Sam, who showed me around the lot and accompanied me on test drives. Once we figured out the one that I liked the best, I worked with Steven on the financial terms. All three were extremely friendly and helpful throughout the process. Paige responded to my emails very quickly, and answered every question I had for her over the phone. Sam did the same in person once I arrived. Steven helped me identify the down payment and loan terms that worked best for me. Every step of the way, they made the entire process stress-free and enjoyable. I was not expecting to finalize anything the first day I went there, but after spending some time with everyone, it was clear that I didn't need to look at any other dealerships. I was able to get my first new vehicle with a payment that I'm very comfortable with. They even offered to send someone to pick up my trade-in (70 miles from the dealership) and took the time to help me set up my Bluetooth and other functions of the car that I wasn't familiar with before I left the lot (an hour and a half after closing). I could not have asked for anything more than what I got. It was completely devoid of stress or pressure, and I will make the trip to Bulldog Kia again in a few years when it's my wife's turn to look at new vehicle options. More
