We had a lifetime warranty that we felt wasn't being honored. In the end one of the owners stepped in, with the help of GM Chuck Settles and made sure that our issues were resolved. We greatly apprecia More

Thank you for providing us with your feedback. The lifetime warranty was included with the sell of the vehicle and not sold separately. Unfortunately, there were numerous gaps we found in the factory required maintenance since the purchase of the vehicle before the problems with the engine occurred. Had the cause of this been from a covered component or failure, we would have covered the repairs, or the value of the vehicle had the maintenance been performed when needed. If you would like to discuss this further, feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience. Sincerely, Chuck Settles General Manager Gerald Kia of North Aurora csettles@geraldauto.com

It took over a week to replace a hose on my 2008 Sorento. Also requested fix to ESC and ABS lights. That was January 2022. They’re still on. More

The dealership denied in helping any further in my warranty claim. Seems like they’re more worried about the bottom line. Which stems from Kia themselves. I got a denied claim even with more than enou More
