Good evening and thank you for reaching out.....I apologize for your disappointment with your experience and also for any confusion about my re-contact...Eva may not have advised you that the sales department is closed...and the few of us that are remaining --myself included ---are working from home. If you can send some pictures to me at dreali@destinationkia.com, I will confer with all the departments. I know this inconvenience has been a real hassle----But it is my hope that if these were to be addressed---and perhaps if we had some goodwill adjustment that you would accept, you would be able to enjoy the car that it sounds like you really wanted (and still want) to continue driving. For social distancing reasons, I am not in the store but will attempt to gather all the data from Service and the Collision Center....

Thank your your reply, I have emailed you. I understand times are tough and hours of operation are severely reduced due to COVID-19, however this issue stems back to December 2019. I appreciate you addressing this and look forward to hearing back from you.
