Coastal Kia service department are amazing. The gentleman I spoke with, Sam, treated me with respect and answered my questions without making feel dumb for not knowing the inside and out details for my car. As a single mother, that meant the world to me. They picked up my car, took a look at it, to ease my mind, and brought it back to me with no issues. He even called me to explain what they had done and what i could expect from my car, moving forward. It was THE BEST experience I have ever had from a mechanic team and service department...EVER! I would recommend this place to everyone I know. My next car will definitely come from Coastal Kia!! (And I LOVE my Kia!!)

Great place and everyone was really nice. Brandon Wright was great to work with he went above and beyond to help me out to get out of my dodge and into the sorento. Even at 8pm at night when the deal was done he drove all the way out from Wilmington to calabash to have my dad sign paperwork. To me that is excellent customer service going above and beyond.
