The oil change was done in a time that met my expectations. My issue was with the tire offer that came when I went for the pickup. I was offered 2 tires for $650, but alternatively if I bought 3 tires for $1,200 I would get a 4th one free. The dishonesty is what I found to be infuriating. The offer sounds like Kings is giving a free tire when in fact they are only giving a $25 discount per tire if the customer purchased 4 tires instead of 2. To present the offer as a free tire is dishonest. I wouldn’t mind if a $25 discount was openly offered, but to disguise it as if a free tire was being given just leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're glad the oil change met your expectations, but sorry to hear about your dissatisfaction with the tire offer. We certainly don't intend to be misleading. Thank you for fielding a call yesterday from our Manager, Eddie. It appears he did find an error in the calculation that you were presented with and emailed the corrected one to you as promised on your phone call. We do actually give you a free tire up to $250, no tactics. Our mount and balance is all you pay with the price of 3 tires, and that is $140. Please reach out to our Service Manager, Eddie Simpson, when you are ready. Thank you.
Bait and Switch and used every sales tactic. Marked up my Money Factor by a ridicules amount.

Terrible!!! We got a dealer quote from the Edmunds app. The dealer internet guy called to verify we got the quote. We were told the number we got is the selling price not including taxes and fees. So we setup an appointment to go in and were passed off to another salesperson who we bought a car from 18 months previous at the same dealership, since the internet guy can’t close the deal for some reason. We get a sheet from the salesman with our quoted price plus all kinds of additional packages, plus a 299 charge for mudflaps and also a strangely high title/filing fee of $175. The car we bought from the same salesman/dealer 18 months prior had a $21 title/filing fee and the 299 mudflap fee was included in the selling price of the car which we had to twist their arm to do at that time. We declined the packages which took a bit to remove from the sheet. When we questioned both fees the salesman said there was no way to avoid the extra 299 mudflap and the 175 title filing fee. When I showed him the deal sheet from 18 months prior and said this has to change or we walk he disappears twice (once for each charge adjustment) for a while and comes back with a $41 title/filing fee and the 299 mudflap cost was now included in the internet price we were quoted. Terrible way to treat returning customers! Plus how ethical is it to play around with the title/filing fees. They cleaned the car up and brought it into the show room while we were waiting on the finance guy. Upon looking at the car in the showroom we discovered the car had a dent on the back moulding attached to the bumper and bumper a mark where it looks to have absorbed contact. We pointed it out to our salesman and basically said we can’t close on this car until that’s fixed. He looked thru his inventory and found another car that had only a few differences. So we looked at it test drive it and told the salesman we would switch to that car as long as the price negotiated on the other car would remain the same to which he agreed. Then we waited for a bit only to be hit with we had to pay -400 more since the MSRP was higher on the indented car. We should have walked at this point but did not since we had already invested 4 hours into what should have been a much shorter process. Then when we get into the finance guy and we notice the selling price we agreed to (internet price plus 400), was 750 higher. The finance guy said it was because a rebate was being applied to the deal after the selling price. No mention of the rebate from anyone until this point. We were 5 hours in at this point so we agreed to the deal which we seriously regret. The $750 rebate should have come off of the selling price but was unscrupulously added to it (which we paid taxes on) then subtracted out lower in the deal sheet. What an incredibly underhanded way to treat return customers. It was our fault though for not walking away when we were told we had to pay $400 extra for the switch after being told we wouldn’t and then seeing the rebate for the first time on the deal sheet presented to us by the finance guy. The rebate should have been told to us during the negotiating process and should be applied after the selling price is agreed to to lower the price not to keep it the same. Basically the dealer took the 750 rebate and charged us tax on their profit of it. Plus what’s up with the attempt to charge us $175 for the title/filing fees. Hopefully anyone who reads this won’t make the same mistakes we did. As return customers we ended up being really disappointed! We expected better. What should have been a quick 2 hour process with getting the internet price turned into a painful process. Never again!!!!

John, we're very disappointed to see the low rating you've left us, but more so, we are disheartened to learn about the negative car-buying experiences that you've had. It's never our intention to mislead our customers or to make the sales process any more complicated than it needs to be. By the end of the car-buying process, we want our customers to be 100% satisfied with the terms of the sale and confident that they received a fair deal. Further, we would like to acknowledge that you had issues with extra charges that were levied to your vehicle and additional fees made by our team. We do apologize for these errors. We recognize all of the frustration that these problems have caused you, and we want to make sure that your concerns have been fully addressed. I'd appreciate it if you could give me a call so that we may get on the same page about any outstanding issues and rectify them at once. Thank you, Andy French - General Manager - 513-774-6002
