I’ve purchased 2 vehicles from you and have always had

I’ve purchased 2 vehicles from you and have always had good service from Kia. This visit was to troubleshoot and repair a leaking tire. The tire still leaks. This made the 2nd time I’ve taken my vehicle in for this issue. Now a 3rd trip (from Shallotte) will be required. Additionally, from the day of purchase, the “Inverter fluid level low” indicator is constantly on for which no resolution has been given. I’m losing faith in Kia and their lack of a timely resolution to that problem.

The vehicle was fine but i had issues with the sales

The vehicle was fine but i had issues with the sales force. I wanted to pick the car up the next morning but the closing coordinator insisted it be done that evening. This resulted in a hurried detailing and forced me to do the walk around in the dark. I was also told the DMV paperwork had been submitted which was untrue. This caused me to make unnecessary trips to DMV and the dealership. Also, the window sticker was destroyed instead of being furnished to me as required and I had to follow up twice to get a copy.

Honestly we wouldn’t have ever purchased a Kia let alone

Honestly we wouldn’t have ever purchased a Kia let alone two if it wasn't for Kelvin’s ability to make us feel like our best interests were what was most important

Coastal Kia is top of the heap when it comes to

Coastal Kia is top of the heap when it comes to professionalism, courtesy and hospitality. Oh, and good-old actual expert car-care service, at it’s best, is what may cause me to buy our 7th Kia in-a-row, in 2023. One thing is sure: if we do, it will be from Coastal Kia…
