Dennis Dillon Automotive

The sales rep we worked with was nice and they had the car we wanted. I am never going back. The sales manager was rude, we waited for 3 hours just to get an initial set of numbers. After test driving the car the sales rep said that they have two add ons to all of their vehicles - an update to make the brake lights flash five times when you apply the breaks and a car theft system, both coming with financial benefits in the event of an incident. I honestly don’t like the brake lights flashing, especially on a Tesla that will show brake lights with regen. The anti theft system with an app showing location feels a bit redundant to the Tesla app. I immediately said those add ons were a deal breaker if they weren’t stricken from the sales cost. Bottom line, the car that is advertised for 26,700 couldn’t be sold for less than a final cost of 29,000. They are not willing to sell you a car for the advertised price. I get taxes and doc fees, but don’t tell me that the price you advertise is lowered to accommodate for add ons. If addons are necessary for you to sell the vehicle bake it into the advertised price. They were about $1k over market value for that car. I’m never going back. It is unforgivable that I had to wait so long just to get their numbers for the vehicle.

I purchased a brand-new 2025 Kia Carnival from Dennis Dillon Kia in Boise on January 22, 2025, and unfortunately, my experience has been extremely frustrating. When I picked up the vehicle, it was not cleaned to the standard expected for a new car, but I took it home, planning to clean it myself. However, once I parked in my garage that evening, I noticed extensive scratches all over the exterior, including the roof, side panels, and mirrors—completely unacceptable for a brand-new vehicle. I immediately reported the issue to the dealership on January 23, 2025, and have since spoken with multiple managers. They attempted to buff out the scratches twice, yet the damage remains clearly visible. When I requested that they cover the cost of a third-party paint correction specialist, they denied my request and even hung up on me. As of today, Dennis Dillon Kia has offered no reasonable resolution. Their lack of accountability, poor customer service, and refusal to take responsibility for delivering a damaged vehicle has been beyond disappointing. If you're considering buying a car from Dennis Dillon Kia, I strongly advise caution. Their post-sale support has been dismissive and unprofessional, and if you expect a dealership to stand behind the quality of their vehicles, you may want to look elsewhere.

I do not recommend Dennis Dillon to service your car. I took my 2023 Kia Serrento in for a second opinion after having an alignment done at Kendall Kia of Nampa. I started hearing a rumble sound coming from the left front side of my car after Kendall realigned my car. I explained to Dave that the noise is heard when accelerating going 60+ mph which gets worse at 80+ mph. I requested to have my front left suspension inspected. We had the tires rotated and balanced at Midas, where I got new tires. Midas and I worked together to make sure the problem was not a tire problem. The maintenance tech and maintenance supervisor stated they could not duplicate the problem. I then requested to go on a drive with either the maintenance tech or supervisor and was told no because at this point there has been 2 maintenance advisors, 2 maintenance supervisors, and 2 maintenance techs that could not duplicate the problem and are very confident that my car was fine. Dave also stated that they put my car on the lift and shook down the tires everything was tight and good. Fast forward to 2/10/2025, I brought my Kia to Stone's Kia for a 3rd opinion. The service tech not only duplicated the problem while on a ride with my husband and myself, but he also identified the problem. The problem is the transmission needs to be replaced.

Make promises they never intend to keep.both the salesman and the sales manager. Said they would resolve an issue and call back. Never did this place sucks and does bad business. I wouldn't in a million years do business with lying employees especially managers. They promised a man who lives in his truck a gas voucher and he gave them everything they asked. It's been 2 weeks and no voucher or call back from either of the employees that promised. Any dealership who is more interested in making money and could care less about the people that pay their bills, the customers. Deseves to be boycotted and ran out of business. Give the poor man living in his truck what you promised him and quit lying. Bad business I say.

Offered to pay FULL asking price, plus doc fee's. they refused to sell unless I bought their safety package, and finance through them, when I didn't want or need their overpriced add-on, and why would I have to finance with them.....TOO GREEDY!!!!!..This where car dealerships get their bad reputation and I will add, MUCH DESERVED in this case.

I exclusively go to dennis dillon for service. I live in la grande oregon. There are dealerships closer to where I live but I will gladly drive to boise idaho. They are on top of it and actually care. They go out of there way to make sure everything is taken care of and if there is a mistake or the problem wasn't resolved the first time they make sure it gets taken care of as conveniently as possible.

I live in Homedale idaho and my wife and I were contacted by Dennis Dillion. We were told that my wife was approved for a vehicle purchase so we drove to Boise today only to be told she infact was not approved, we had a coupon to redeem a gas card and we were told we were supposed to have them but we don't at this time. There not straight with customers and I would stay away from there car lot.

Between the two KIA dealers in the Treasure Valley of southwest Idaho, Dennis Dillion is head-n-shoulders above the other dealer’s service department. #1. Their pricing is competitive with independent repair/service shops. #2. They answer text messages and emails promptly. #3. They make appointments again via phone, text or email and they offer flexible scheduling options #4. When performing service or maintenance they provide a video of your vehicle showing important areas that are in good working order and items that require attention. #5. They typically have a minimum of 4 or 5 Service Advisors so when you pull into their service department there is no waiting on an employee. #6. If a defect or a failed component is suspected, they will engage with the appropriate vehicle manufacturer for further analysis. #7. The service waiting room is spacious and accommodating. #8. Lastly, I cannot over emphasize how impressed I’ve been working with Harry Rood (Service Advisor). Harry has great communication skills and is always available to answer questions. Harry provides information that is concise, straightforward and timely.

I've never dealt with more dishonest people in any field. The dealership is sloppy and dishonest and approached the legal definition of fraud. Truly a remarkable experience that would, if it were not such a "car sales cliché, be amusing. Stay away.

We bought a 2024 Kia Soul on March 26, 2024, were rushed through the papers signing, but not until after 6 hours, and their mixing up which vehical was being purchased. Then, a KEY FOB stops working. We had less than 1000 miles, but after dozens of calls, no one would call back to give us an appt to fix the problem, which was under warranty. The Mgr was left messages, as was the service dept. To date, weeks later, no one will call us back. We live over 2 hours away, and needed the repair done. Then, a cyberattack hit dealers across the U.S., so another so-called reason to not reply back to us. However, during said cyberattack, we were able to reach Pocatello Kia, who manually set up a warranty appt for this month re: FOB. They were courteous and helpful immediately. SUGGESTION: BUY YOUR KIA IN POCATELLO!!!
