My first experience with your service dept. was excellent, quick and efficient. Your lounge area was also excellent, though a little out of the way but very pleasant and clean. The service attendant was very knowledgeable and very pleasant to speak with.

We love Omar at first Kia

Our car buying experience was great. Everyone took great care of us, especially Omar! We had our 2 yr old with us while purchasing the car and everyone helped make things easy and kept our son busy giving him coloring books and crayons, popcorn and balloons, it was so nice.
