Your service manager Jimmy M. was awesome. He always kept me informed on exactly how my car was doing, how long it would take to install the new parts and set up a rental for me at enterprise. I thank your mechanics as well.

Wife was with my 6 month old child and was told it would be a 3 hour wait for an oil change. They took that into consideration and instead they took care of her and had her out of there in 45 mins. Thank you guys very much.

1st Kia gives me the royal treatment

Robyn in the service department is great. She treats me like family every time. Makes sure I get a ride back home, gives me the royal if I wait in the lobby but most of all is genuine and shows she cares.
