This dealership is a complete joke in the sales and finance department. Do not buy a car here unless you want to overpay and have xx thrown at you. Most unprofessional experience I’ve ever dealt with. finance department. Do not buy a car here unless you want to overpay and have xx thrown at you.

My salesman, Austin, was PHENOMENAL! I appreciated the time he took with me in explaining all of the different models and cars! I ended up buying a newer car than I had intended to, I appreciated the time he took with me in explaining all of the different models and cars!

I took my Kia optima here on Jan 6th because I had a burning smell coming from my engine. Poor customer service, poor workmanship. They had my car for 2 1/2 days and charge me $560, car is not drivable burning smell coming from my engine. Poor customer service, poor workmanship. They had my car for 2 1/2 days and charge me $560, car is not drivable found out that the gasoline is mixed in with the engine oil. When I pick up my vehicle on Saturday Jan 7th. Due to the problem, causing my car to have this burning smell. was due to an oil leak. You would think common sense these idiots will change the oil. now I have to take my car to another dealership to have them look over the poor workmanship done by sunset Kia I will never bring my car back to this place.

Took in my 2014 soul to get checked because of headlight flickering. Turned out to be the multifunction switch, the front desk person said it would be covered under warranty, said she would call me because flickering. Turned out to be the multifunction switch, the front desk person said it would be covered under warranty, said she would call me because they have to order the part. It's been 3 months and everytime I call to check they make up excuses and say they are still waiting on the part. I ended up fixing it myself. Warranty for life? Yea right More

Had a horrible experience 2yrs ago buying a kia sportage form here! Fast forward 2 yrs and car needs some service work done. They were nice to fit me into their schedule and diagnosed the car on a Monday, form here! Fast forward 2 yrs and car needs some service work done. They were nice to fit me into their schedule and diagnosed the car on a Monday, by Thursday and 5 calls into service with zero response I show up in person. Parts not ordered and car hasn't moved. Now total car has been their 9 days and still no call , I've left numerous messages and nothing. Guess I'll be taking time out of my day to visit them one more time! All I asking for a call to update. More

This one star rating is for the service manager. During our phone coversation,(3/29/22) he refused to listen to reason and took the deny position ( "We didn't do it.")Although I found his denial unpe During our phone coversation,(3/29/22) he refused to listen to reason and took the deny position ( "We didn't do it.")Although I found his denial unpersuasive, I decided not to engage in a verbal dispute; It's a waste of time and energy when you know that you are dealing with someone that doesn't want a reasonable resolution. I told him that I would be in touch again and this wasn't over. I am the type of person who doesn't move forward unless all my facts are pristine. I contacted Midas to see if they would stand behind there explanation. They said, "Absolutely. We have the oil pan and plug and old filter. Your leak and damaged pan is the fault of the technician who performed your last oil change. The plug wasn't inserted correctly and the threads are stripped." Sunset Kia does all my oil changes and has done so since I bought my car there. The oil changes cost me nothing there, it's part of the new car purchase contract. This is what happened: I noticed a good sized oil stain in my driveway. Most likely from a day or two before. I then looked under my car and saw a puddle of oil. I had to get to work and there is a Midas Repair shop across the street from my employer. I dropped my car off with them and asked them to fix whatever was causing this serious leak. They made the discovery and fixed the problem and it cost me $645 and change. I thought to myself this was an inconvenience for sure but I knew Sunset Kia, being a reputable company, would make things right by reimbursing my loss. When I spoke with the service manager at Sunset, I understood how wrong I was and that this would be an uphill battle. Midas couldn't believe that Sunset wasn't going to do the right thing. This isn't over! I have written an official letter of complaint and made very clear what needs to happen for me to consider this issue resolved. I will mail them today, one to the Service Manager and one to the Dealership manager/owner. If I don't gain satisfaction after that, my next step will be to take them to small claims court. I'm not going to eat $645 loss for something that was their fault. I have the the ruined pan and Midas will support my claim. I would be remiss if I didn't mention that all my past experiences with Sunset Kia have been positive. Stay tuned. More
