Laguna Niguel Hyundai

I’m writing to express my deep frustration and utter disappointment with the way I was treated yesterday at Hyundai of Laguna Niguel while visiting from the Coachella Valley. After spending over two disappointment with the way I was treated yesterday at Hyundai of Laguna Niguel while visiting from the Coachella Valley. After spending over two hours trying to charge my Ioniq 6 at multiple Electrify America stations—across various locations and at least seven chargers—I discovered the problem was with my vehicle’s charging port. In urgent need of assistance, I went to Hyundai of Laguna Niguel expecting some level of support. Instead, I was met with indifference, dismissiveness, and outright hostility. The service advisor showed no empathy whatsoever. He told me to “go find a Level 1 or 2 charger,” despite my explaining that I was from out of town and that was not a realistic option. He claimed the dealership had no chargers onsite and refused to offer any help, beyond a rude and combative attitude. When I turned to the sales department, they made an effort and directed me back to service, assuring me the manager would assist. That turned out to be false. The manager not only refused to help, but berated me, accused me of being rude, and doubled down that there was nothing they could do—despite a Level 3 charger being visible in the front lot, contradicting what I’d been told. I then drove to Hyundai of Irvine, where I was treated with the professionalism and care I should have received from the start. They immediately diagnosed the issue, confirmed the charging port wasn’t engaging, provided a loaner, and had me back on the road within an hour—without attitude, blame, or excuses. They even fully charged my car and kept me informed every step of the way. Hyundai of Laguna Niguel should be ashamed of how they treat people. Their behavior was unprofessional, dismissive, and deeply unacceptable. They offered no solutions, no basic courtesy, and no integrity. At this point, I am not seeking any reply or explanation from Hyundai of Laguna Niguel’s management. It’s too late for that. More

Worst customer service EVER. I am kind blown away how they treat people. They do not value their customers. Listen to the negative reviews especially when it comes to Tim Bright.

My teenage son brought his car in because it was revving while switching gears. They said the problem is a crankshaft sensor issue. Cost to repair: about $800. After this is done, a tech calls him saying while switching gears. They said the problem is a crankshaft sensor issue. Cost to repair: about $800. After this is done, a tech calls him saying that now the car doesn't start because the batter is cleaning and needs a new battery cable for $400. Ok... It's weird since the car never had issues starting, but he trusts them. After both items are completed, the tech calls and says the car issue isn't fixed at all, and actually, it's a transmission issue! Cost to fix: about $4000. This is pure insanity! They completely misdiagnosed the actual issue, started throwing parts at the car, and kept wanting to "fix" something else that actually didn't fix anything. After talking to James Contreras who was the "service advisor" (who literally hung up on me as I was speaking) and the "manager" Timothy Bright (who didn't even apologize for his team's behavior and has the customer service skills of a rock), we got nowhere. There are several complaints against this location on the BBB website, and I understand why. We are filling a complaint as well for deceptive business practices and with Hyundai corporate. More
