Greg in Sales was great and friendly. They didn't have the original car I wanted, so I ended up paying more than I wanted for a different car, but all in all it was a good process.

The only good experience was the car wash afterwards.. I came to Jim Ellis with a check engine light issue. I the 2015 Kia Soul scanned elsewhere and it said large leak which pointed to an emissions issue. Which should be under warranty for 8 years or 80,000 miles. Jim Ellis Kia wanted to charge me $145.00 just to scan the car. I couldn't afford that. So I wasted my trip and day! While I enjoy my Kia, this will be the last time I own one...I will not be back!

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review and provide your honest feedback, it means so much to us. I've reached out to our service manager for clarification on this situation, and I'm happy to say I have a response. The $145.00 fee was to diagnose the vehicle to determine if it is covered under warranty, if the repairs are covered under warranty the diagnostic fee would be waived and no charge to the customer. If said repairs are not covered and the customer elects to have the repairs performed here the fee is also waived. The only time the customer pays the diagnostic fee is when the repairs are not covered under warranty and they elect not to have any of the repairs performed. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. Best regards. - Madison Magnus, Customer Relations Manager

Service was great as usual but I was disappointed that it took several hours for service rep to call me back. My car was done at 9:00 AM ( after I dropped it off the night before)?but after I authorized one additional service item it took all day for a notification that my car was done.
