Mark Kia

Jose was very helpful, had a problem with an annoying rattle in the overhead console of my Sedona. They were able to isolate the problem and come up with an acceptable solution to fix it.

I leased a new Kia Soul at this dealership and the experience, while a bit daunting (as nearly all car sales usually are),was excellent. I was treated courteously and repectfully during the entire pro experience, while a bit daunting (as nearly all car sales usually are),was excellent. I was treated courteously and repectfully during the entire process. After the sale, I have had several contacts inquiring as to my satisfaction with the dealership, its employees and the vehicle. At the three month after-sale point, I was reminded by the sales consultant, Pat Flynn, that it was time for a complimentary LOF/tire rotation service which service was performed with the same coutesy and respect as the initial sale/lease experience. Although located in an older area of Scottsdale/Tempe, the dealership very obviously places great value on customer service and satisfaction.I recommend this dealership to other prospective buyers/owners based upon the several experiences I have had with them.

Started at Peoria Kia, but they said what I wanted wasnt available (available within their own dealership network apparently). Came home and did quick search on web, found my car at Mark Kia (only hybrid l available (available within their own dealership network apparently). Came home and did quick search on web, found my car at Mark Kia (only hybrid loaded in state). Got a call back on a sunday night at 8pm after the inquiry online. Made appointment to view car on tuesday and met very knowledgeable and enthusiastic Dublin. Dublin has a passion for what he does and is a great salesperson. Did a Costco deal and saved about $6K off the dealer mark-up price with no hassles. No hard sell and no 'pass the paper back and forth'. Salesperson was wonderful and actually went over all the features of the vehicle including the manual and maintenance schedule (havent seen that done since the 1970's and we have bought a ton of new vehicles over the years). Only bummer was extensive wait for financing guy, due to busy month end. In a million years, I would have never driven from north peoria to tempe to buy a car, but this dealership experience made it worth the drive! More

If you are a woman, care about what a woman thinks when buying a vehicle, or even know a woman who drives, DO NOT take her to Mark Kia. I made the mistake of going into the dealership, with an appointment buying a vehicle, or even know a woman who drives, DO NOT take her to Mark Kia. I made the mistake of going into the dealership, with an appointment to see Greg, on Feb. 17. I had pre-approved financing, and knew exactly what I wanted: a 2012 Kia Optima Hybrid. I was trading in a running, fully loaded 2001 Daewoo with high mileage, but no body damage, so I hoped to drive off the lot with an awesomely great Kia. Through our internet conversations, I was led to believe the dealer had the car I wanted on the lot. They did not. When I arrived, I asked for Greg and was shunted off to Jason, purportedly their hybrid specialist. Then, when I asked a question about the warranty of the electric battery, Jason walked me over to the Service Department. The guys there looked at me like I was absolutely out of my mind for asking about a $5,000 (or more?) potential replacement part. Clearly, they had not read their Kia service bulletins (and I knew this because I'd previously spoken with Bob Springer at Tempe Kia and he HAD the information in his head and in the bulletin), and the Mark Kia guy gave me incorrect information. Negative mark for service department. I was specifically looking for a - not black, not white - 2012 Optima hybrid. When we finally had a chance to look at cars, the only 2012 hybrid on the lot was black, interior and exterior. In Arizona? Are they nuts? Evidently it had just been unloaded from the truck and wasn't ready for delivery yet anyway. But they had two other hybrids, both white, both 2011, and oddly I thought, both sticker priced about the same as the 2012. Eventually Greg came up and Jason wandered off. I went through the same introduction, explanation, etc. again. I told him I also was looking at a 2012 hybrid car at Tempe Kia, I had my own financing, blah blah blah. He clearly either wasn't listening to me, or he outright ignored me. Evidently this was his first week selling cars; his brother in law or something got him the job. (Note to manager: Bad choice. You might want to train your salesmen or saleswomen, if you have any, better). He didn't know the vehicles, their specs, or the details of the differences between gasoline cars and hybrids. He didn't have a key to open the car, and didn't offer to get one so I could sit in the driver's seat and see the amazing electronics, whether it had Sirius radio, and how quiet it was when running. Negative marks for knowing the vehicle, and how to sell a car to an intelligent woman. Or man, for that matter. We went back into the office. I asked if they could get the car I wanted from another dealer. No clue, but probably not. "We are a Diamond Dealer. We sell more cars..." blah blah blah. Wrong answer. He was pushing the 2011 and offered me a price that was considerably higher than I knew I had negotiated with Tempe Kia for a 2012. He said You know they are including rebates in that price. I said, Duh, of course they are. They told me. He said he probably could give me $1,000 for my trade, $500 if I would finance with Kia, $1,000 for this and $1,000 for that. I explained to him (again) I had my own financing and wouldn't be eligible for the $500, my trade in was too old to qualify for the competitive trade $1,000 rebate, but I was interested in the $1,000 trade he offered on my old car. He took my keys (my HUGE mistake not to walk the evaluator to the car) so someone could get a value on it. Evidently one of them opened the car, but then did not re-lock it (all he had to do was push the lock button!). It took me two hours to get the darned keys back. When I declined his offered deal, he wanted to see the offer I had from Tempe Kia. I really didn't want to give Mark Kia that competitive advantage: Having met the service department, seeing the sales force in inaction (yes, you read that correctly), I was hesitant to do that. But, I bent under the pressure. I specifically told him he could make a copy, but I wanted the original back. You can guess, I never saw the offer again. It must have gotten lost Greg told me about 2 hours later when I was ready to climb over their counter to get my keys and paperwork back. But wait, there's more! Every time he interacted with the receptionist, he said Isn't she beautiful? Sure, lovely, but he never uttered a word about her competence. And I saw her at work at her desk. It was well organized, she was taking care of business, answering the phones, transferring calls, doing paperwork. He sent HER to get coffee (must have thought it was below his manly dignity). In front of me in the next cubicle, were two other women customers, evidently waiting for financing approval to come through. In the time I was at Mark Kia (the last hour and a half asking for my keys and paperwork to be returned), I never saw a salesman or finance manager go to talk with them. Was he off to work with other customers? Not likely; it was a very light day and those ladies and I were the only customers on the lot. He was probably one of the 5 or 6 salesmen hanging outside having a bull session. I finally had to go into the little office where the I-have-to-talk-to-my-manager guys sit, and demand my keys and paperwork. They'd held me up for 2 and a half hours, so the 2 pm appointment I'd expected to last an hour had put me driving home right in the middle of Phoenix rush hour. Still, when I finally got my keys, I was relieved to escape from Mark Kia. I went immediately to TEMPE KIA at the TEMPE AUTOPLEX and made the deal with Sergai Kolesnik for my new 2012 light graphite colored Kia Optima hybrid. Along with all the criticism, it seems only fair to offer some suggestions for improvement: Train your salesmen - not just on the job, but in actual classrooms where they can learn about the cars, financing, and maybe even some etiquette. If they can't master the information, let them go. Hire some saleswomen! Read the research that shows women make by far MOST of the decisions about which car and how much to pay for it. Learn how to negotiate with women who aren't the little woman who bends to her man's will. Stop bragging about being a Diamond Dealer when you're selling Kias; all those trophies are for Mitsubishis, not Kias. And stop trashing your competition just because you can't or won't meet their prices, service, or the way they treat customers. I was so offended I will never return to your dealership, and I will tell everyone I know (especially as I show off my new Kia) to go to Tempe Kia. Furthermore, I am writing to USAA to ask them to take you off their listing of recommended Kia dealers. Hopefully they will. My experience with your company was horrible, offensive, and I was glad to escape. More

As much as I loved my 2001 Kia Sportage, it was time to say goodbye and update my ride. Being a loyal Kia customer, I did a quick internet search and found Mark Kia; Ciaran "Dublin" O'Murchu contacted me say goodbye and update my ride. Being a loyal Kia customer, I did a quick internet search and found Mark Kia; Ciaran "Dublin" O'Murchu contacted me almost immediately. Dublin greeted me at the dealership later in the afternoon and was able to zoom in to my needs and wants very quickly. He was side-by-side with me throughout the entire process where I puchased a 2012 Kia Soul. Chuck Flair made completing the paperwork painless. All in all, between friendly, knowledgable sales staff selling an awesome product, why would you not do business with Mark Kia!?!?! Thanks, Dublin, Chuck and Mark Kia---I love my beautiful, new Kia Soul. More
