itself has serious issues with work ethic and accountability.
My car was towed here a month ago and had it for two weeks due to a recall I was never informed about — no calls, no emails, nothing — even though I’ve always serviced my vehicle at this same Kia. After being told what needed to be done, I approved an oil change and air filter replacement. The air filter was never installed, and the oil change was done so poorly that oil leaked all over my garage, leaving a permanent stain and puddle still remains .
When I brought it back because the oil leaking, instead of an apology or any sympathy, other service staff “not Conner” they gave me attitude also when I requests once again a new air filter that I thought that was already changed a month ago and charged me $73 for it.
Conner did his best I will recommend him anytime, but this dealership needs serious improvement in communication, honesty, and quality of service. I’m now questioning every bit of work that’s ever been done on my car here.

I have another issue! I am NOT happy with this at all. Since getting my battery replaced I am now inconvenienced with the start/stop function not working. I am being charged $100 to look at this. This is a RIP off!
Connor really is the best of the best, I would schedule
service time and time again, he’s so kind, courteous and understanding, go Connor!

The customer service is nice.
Whenever I have an issue with my vehicle, Kia makes sure they fix the problem. Majority of the time my car is covered by the warranty.
