The salesman was nice, however I did not enjoy that it took us over 6 hours to make a deal with the typical back and forth delay tactic with one of the general managers. More

I didn’t want to rate the dealership because I am not sure what falls on them and what falls on the sales force. I was extremely disappointed and frustrated with Mr Franklin because after a complete fai More

Tom, thank you for sharing your feedback. There seems to be some confusion regarding the details of your experience, and we’d like to clarify. You were interested in a 2023 Chevy Trailblazer listed online for $20,400 and offered $19,500 out the door. After discussing with Kate, we authorized $21,500 including the vehicle and fees, which was declined, and you reiterated your offer of $19,500. When Morgan followed up, the $26,000 quoted was the out-the-door price including all fees and sales tax—not just the vehicle price. We acknowledge that we dropped the ball in our communication that evening, and Morgan did reach out early the next morning to apologize. Unfortunately, because there was no agreement or commitment to hold the vehicle, it was sold later that evening. We understand this was a frustrating experience and appreciate your feedback. If you’re still in the market, we would be happy to work with you to find another vehicle that meets your needs at a fair and transparent price. Please feel free to reach out directly if you’d like to discuss further.

How do you go from 21500 all in to 26000- if it is just taxes that still doesn’t add up - end of the day the car was sold after closing hours during a time I was waiting on a response and all is good. I am not happy with the Customer Service and you have the right to treat me as you did. If Kate couldn’t help me further why did Bailey reach back out and increase the price. It should have been left alone instead of raising your price. Tax on 21,500 doesn’t increase it to 26000. Just handled wrong in my opinion which is what this review was.

Cowen was very knowledgeable and was not forceful in his sale. I was also impressed with the various managers and all in all it was a painless process. I would go there again and send friends that way. Than More

I almost gave up on Hyundai‘s due to the Topeka service. It’s just not very good and I was losing confidence in the car. After going to the Lawrence location I feel very confident that I could both purchase More

Thank you for sharing your experience. We're sorry to hear about the challenges you faced in Topeka, but we're truly glad that our team in Lawrence was able to restore your confidence in both the vehicle and the Hyundai brand. It means a lot to know we could turn things around for you, and we look forward to being your trusted location for both sales and service moving forward!

Thank you for sharing your experience with us — we truly apologize for the frustration, delays, and miscommunication you endured. This is absolutely not the level of service we strive to provide, and we deeply regret the inconvenience caused throughout this process. We’re grateful that our new General Manager was able to step in and help, but it should never have taken nine months or multiple follow‑ups for this to be resolved. We understand how disappointing this must have been, and we’re committed to using your feedback to review and improve our internal communication and follow‑through. Thank you for allowing us the chance to make this right in the end, and we sincerely wish you all the best moving forward. Should you ever want to discuss this further, we’re here to listen.
