Can I give less than one star? ?  I will NEVER deal with this dealership.  I have purchased 4 Kias and am very loyal to the brand.  In March, I went in to trade my 2020 Telluride fo ?  I will NEVER deal with this dealership.  I have purchased 4 Kias and am very loyal to the brand.  In March, I went in to trade my 2020 Telluride for a 2022.  The trade-in value of my 2020 vehicle made this a very easy thing to do. I ordered my car and was told it would take 6 months.  Almost 6 months later, to the day, the car came in.  However, when we went to put together the final deal, the dealership broke many of the promises it had made to me during our dealings in March. I was lied to by the sales man before I even took a test ride in my new car.  He denied lying to me, but don't tell me that the branding for the vehicle was added at the factory.  They barely have time to get cars out the door, let alone put your silly "VanDevere.com" sticker on the back of the new car.  I told you I didn't want it and wouldn't buy a car you branded.  This was not the reason I walked away, but was just one example of the lies told to get the deal done. I made the mistake of trusting and not getting things in writing, but the way I was dismissed and handled during this transaction was disgraceful.  I think the sales staff saw a single woman purchasing a car and tried to take advantage of me.  They low-balled the value of my current car, they wouldn't give me the rate they were going to charge me. I wanted all of the numbers - how much for the car, value of my trade, rate of the loan, etc. They would only give me a "monthly payment" number and were not transparent with how this monthly number was calculated.  I had done my research and had a "back up" option in case the deal didn't work out the way it was promised.  I was in a position to to walk away. I left $1000 at this dealership for my deposit and STILL will be spending less on my other deal. They were very angry that I would talk to a different dealership during the 6 month wait I had for my new vehicle.  They were "hurt" that I would continue to pursue the best deal possible. They tried to handle me.  They tried to take advantage of me.  I gave them 2 days to respond to an email asking them to make this right.  They failed.  DO NOT DEAL WITH THIS DEALERSHIP.  THERE ARE BETTER PLACES TO BUY A KIA.  I will be purchasing my 5th Kia from a different dealership in 2 weeks.  No regrets.

After leasing two vehicles and sending a referral to them to buy a vehicle, they tried dishonestly putting in a $1000 "market adjustment" into my lease buyout was good practice. Had I not noticed it in the q to buy a vehicle, they tried dishonestly putting in a $1000 "market adjustment" into my lease buyout was good practice. Had I not noticed it in the quotes and found my original paperwork that showed the exact dollar amount of my residual for buyout I would have never known. When I questioned this price I was called by the "Sales Manager" Mack Gilchrist, who proceeded to lecture me on the pandemic and how the owners had directed them to include this "adjustment" in all lease buyouts and how somehow I was the only one of "hundreds" to even question it. I asked how they felt it was ethical to add a fee given I had a signed, legal contract stating my buyout was an exact dollar amount, and he proceeded to gaslight me about prices of groceries and if I still bought food. As if I had a contract with Giant Eagle for the price of milk? When I informed him that he would be losing me as a customer for this, he just proceeded to tell me other dealerships were going to charge $3000. I told him I was going to explore my options and literally the first two Kia dealerships I spoke to, the first had a $500 mark up and the other did not add any fees to buyouts. So needless to say, I did my buyout through KIA OF BEDFORD with the help of Matt Bystricky. They gave me a great deal on my buyout, treated me with respect and they will now get all of my future business and will be getting my referrals. I had to apologize to my friend who I referred to them and share my story with them. All lease buyout people, PLEASE READ YOUR BUYOUT DETAILS CLOSELY AT VANDEVERE. This is an absurd and dishonest practice. I look forward to discussing this experience with Kia Finance. Lastly, just to put an exclamation point on this horrific experience, upon looking at the Vandevere website, I confirmed Mack had even given me a false last name. Told me his last name was "Gill." What does this say about him and Vandevere? A fake name?? More
