I have had issues with my 2023 Ionic 5 battery. After months of being told everything was ok with the battery I finally pushed the service department to escalate. In 2025 I purchased a new Ionic More

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your disappointment, but we do feel that a one-star rating is undeserved based on the circumstances. Unfortunately, dealerships are not able to request or schedule field visits with Hyundai’s technical representatives — that process must be initiated directly by Hyundai. This was what Brandon was trying to clarify during your last visit. At that time, our team was already working closely with Hyundai Technical Assistance. We were advised to drive the vehicle to gather additional diagnostic data, but you declined permission for us to do so. When you contacted us again several months later, Brandon reiterated the same information, and Tim confirmed it during your follow-up call. While we understand this situation was frustrating, both team members communicated accurately according to Hyundai’s established process. During the final call, some inappropriate language was used, and the call was disconnected at that point. Regarding your comment about ownership, the dealership was purchased nearly five years ago, and over 90% of our service staff — including our advisors and technicians — have remained with us since before that transition. We truly regret that your experience left you feeling dissatisfied, but our team acted in accordance with manufacturer procedures and communicated the correct information throughout the process.

As usual you have done a incomplete investigation. That is why the one star ranking.

Worst customer service EVER. I am kind blown away how they treat people. They do not value their customers. Listen to the negative reviews especially when it comes to Tim Bright. More

This dealership is incompetent and technicians cannot be trusted. I brought my 2017 Hyundai Sonata in because it was burning oil, had a rattling noise and no power. I wanted an oil consumption test as it More
