Dear Mr. Randall/ We truly don't believe that your review is fair. On October 12, 2016, you took delivery of a 2009 Honda CRV that is technically sold "as is" under the laws of the State of Connecticut. We did provide to you - at no additional charge - a 6 month/6,000 mile nationwide limited powertrain warranty, as well as the option for you to decide to select additional coverage's. You declined. Prior to making this vehicle for sale, we replaced the front brakes, the cabin air filter, air filter, mounted and balanced 4 new tires and completed a full safety inspection. You have been into our dealership with issues on three occasions - and charged for no time or service/repair work. On 01/06/2017 you came in (with no appointment) and indicated that your check engine light is on. We recommended replacement of the oxygen sensor. There is no coverage for this part under the powertrain warranty that you were provided - at no cost - and, you had not opted for additional coverage at the time of pickup that would have provided for that. As such, you declined the repair. The wheel lock key was in the vehicle, since, it was used to remove the wheels to perform the work. We had offered to remove the wheel locks and install regular lug nuts for you at no charge - you opted not to. Premier Kia has truly worked to support you during your ownership horizon. We are sorry you feel the way you do and, do believe that it is unfair given the coverage's the company has provided to you for a vehicle that the State of Connecticut laws would deem to be sold "as is".

Dear Meggan/ We truly disagree with your review and believe it is quite unfair. On October 6, 2016 at 96,133 you brought your vehicle in for a routine oil change. On December 9th, we heard from you and you represented that the oil had leaked out of your vehicle. We were not permitted to see the vehicle at the time, and, you indicated that you had 99,000 miles on the car. It was more than 3 months and 3,000 miles after you picked up the vehicle from our service. While under no obligation, we spoke with you on the phone and sent you an email that even offered you an $80 coupon off future services. We did not hear from you - up until this unfair review. At all times where you treated correctly and respectfully. We have not seen this vehicle since the beginning of October, but do note that the vehicle was declared a "Total Loss" on December 4, 2016, as identified by the insurance company.

Mr. Donat/ As you know from communications with our company, as well as from Kia directly, our company did no wrong in this matter. We have collectively become used to your use of social media to air your side of the story when you have not achieved your personal desired result. Our file is quite extensive with your emails and threats of negative publicity if you didn't get something from us. As we have mentioned to you, we no longer desire to proceed in business relationship with you. This was relayed to Kia and, they were supportive of this decision. We truly will do whatever it takes to satisfy a customer, but, in your case, you just don't seem to be satisfied if you don't have it your way. You have a track record of moving from dealership to dealership when the relations tire, and, there is no reason to believe you will not continue in that regard. We wish you the best in the future and, have closed our files in this matter.
