Wish they had more cars on the lot because getting a model in a different color was a bigger problem than it should have been. Took over two weeks and they didn't exactly match the offer made on the ini More

Your note about Wally taking the time to explain every feature reflects our team’s focus on personalized service. We’re pleased he could set up your new Kia Telluride Hybrid to match your preferences. Knowing his follow-up check-ins have been helpful means a lot to our team.

What started as a great experience quickly became extremely frustrating and disappointing due to a serious lack of follow-through and customer service after the sale. I purchased a very low-mileag More

Hello Jonathan. As you can see from my review, it was very frustrating trying to get any type of support once I signed those papers. I was supposed to receive a second key fob which never happened. I was told it was at your other dealership, and my multiple calls and texts went unanswered. I would like that second fob. And as far as the fix that needed to be done, I'm very glad that Grant and Ron were so diligent in helping me, seeing as the salesperson I worked with (Oz) and the sales manager (Justin) completely ignored my follow up calls and texts after Ron had sent in the repair paperwork for approval. I'm in your system as I purchased the vehicle. You can call me if you are serious. Lance Thompson

I work with Paul. It was nice working with a regular guy and not a slippery sales. I would buy a car from him again if you’re in the market, go check it out. More
