The service was good. They fixed the issue with my tires and found a second issue with my steering wheel that I didn’t know about and fixed it as well.

Have been to other dealerships where the sales people are very pushy. Jason was very patient and did not try to sell us anything we did not want. Very experienced person and understood what we wanted in a vehicle.

Salesman was great! Worked deal over the phone and when we came to pick it up, everything was as we discussed. Finance department, not so much. Had to wait over 45 minutes before starting the process of having someone complete a cash purchase. They were training someone that day. Apparently our time is not valuable. So very happy with Salesman, not happy with Finance.

This is my third vehicle purchase from Coastal Kia and I could not be any happier! My salesman, Brandon was amazing and worked diligently to ensure I was making a purchase that made sense for my situation. Tyler in finance went above and beyond and was able to present a package that was in my price range and fulfilled all my needs. Sam and Bob in service have always been the reason I keep coming back! Their knowledge and advice keeps my vehicles in the best shape with all the miles I drive! Thanks to the Coastal Kia Team for doing the great job you do!

Excellent service. Greeted in a professional manner and explained what work was to be done. Was offered a ride into Wilmington and also explained how long the process would take.
