I worked with "Lyric" He was super knowledgeable about stock, specs, and pricing! Because of him I would rate Oakes Kia 5 stars! Lyric is attentive, and great at identifying the needs of consumers. He doesn't try to force you into something you cannot afford, and he also doesn't try to shove a used car with issues on you either. Highly recommended! A+

Large good, clean selection of certified inventory.

Large good, clean selection of certified inventory. 1st time ever saw a CarFax report for an intended purchased vehicle that allowed me to learn a considerable amount of history. Everyone was friendly, Don was very accommodating. Felt more comfortable purchasing a vehicle from the dealership than online, from an individual, or auction which is much more of a crapshoot. With a Certified used vehicle Oakes Kia places their reputation on the line which they appear to actively maintain. Need to follow-up on a small item that was discussed during negotiations which I foresee being resolved by their service department.

Dealer response

We appreciate your kind words about our certified inventory and team at Oakes Kia. We're glad to know that you felt comfortable with your purchase and confident in the quality of our vehicles. Rest assured, any follow-up items will be handled by our service department!

Had an oil change done and tires rotated.

Had an oil change done and tires rotated. I asked for the brakes to be checked and did not happen. The next day after taking my car in for service my battery had to be replaced.

Dealer response

We aim for thorough service, so it's concerning that we missed checking your brakes as requested. Also, I understand how frustrating an unexpected battery replacement can be right after a service visit. Please reach out directly so we can discuss this further and find a resolution together.

I felt that the dealership had my car too long causing me

I felt that the dealership had my car too long causing me to have to rent a car for longer than needed, this cost me over 600 dollars including my service, which could not be resolved. I also could not get in for service for 3 weeks which cost me over 500 dollars in rental cars. I think a Kia should last longer than 5 years. I have had many cars and never had one that had such a small life to it. Otherwise, I loved the way it looked, and the outside of the car was durable but that was about it.

Dealer response

I am disappointed to read about the inconvenience and costs you've experienced due to your car's service timeline. We understand how frustrating this can be, especially when it impacts other aspects of your life, like needing a rental car. It sounds like we need to look into this situation further for you - please reach out so we can discuss what happened and find a way forward together. Thank you, Mike Stinnett - Service Manager - (816) 683-4256

I sold the car that I mentioned in my review, so I no longer have to deal with it.
