Excellent experience with my service appt, as always.

Excellent experience with my service appt, as always. My advisor, Cody, took great care of me. I goofed on my appt schedule and Cody got me in and taken care of. Always fast and excellent service. I’m a proud Germain Kia customer, and I now own 2 vehicles, both purchased from Germain. My great experience with the purchase of my Kia influenced my purchase of my husband’s new Hyundai.

Tyler is an awesome salesman.

Tyler is an awesome salesman. The vehicle that I was interested in was sold that morning I called, but Tyler helped locate a 2024 Kia Forte-GT Line for me in the Dayton area. We negotiated a fair price for the vehicle, and I drove back up to Columbus two days later to buy the vehicle. The entire staff at Germain Kia was attentive, easy to talk to, and with no pressure tactics. They made my first brand new vehicle purchase a memorable one.

I scheduled an appointment for a recall on my car.

I scheduled an appointment for a recall on my car. And they told me they couldn’t do it on a Saturday and they told me that it couldn’t be after 2 o’clock through the week. This means I have to miss work. I go in there they take my car, one hour and 15 minutes later They come out and tell me that they will order my part and call me to get scheduled. Excuse me, I had to schedule off work for this appointment. You knew exactly why I was coming in. You knew exactly what type of vehicle I had. Why did you not have the part? And you want me to schedule to come back and miss work again? The service manager told me to call consumer affairs with Kia. With my complaint. Because it was out of his hands how they handle things. I called consumer affairs and spent 45 minutes on the phone, they told me that each dealership is franchised and they follow their own rules. So neither place could offer me any service. They could only blame each other and that I needed to take it up with the other.

Terri, I'm sorry to hear about the inconvenience you faced with your recall appointment. It's frustrating when communication and coordination fall short, especially when it affects your work schedule. I would like to help resolve this issue for you; please reach out at your convenience so we can discuss further steps. Thank you, Todd Gibbs - Service Manager - 614-465-4572

Huge shout out to the Germain kia family.

Huge shout out to the Germain kia family. Just bought a brand new vehicle. It was a group effort, but everyone bent over backwards to make sure I went home happy. I had to come back in and put a tow hitch on and the service department was even great. I even had a sales person from Germain toyota help us out. The Germain family should be very proud of these associates Ken Gurung, Skylar Smith, Ricardo Gomaz, and Brian Franks. If you have any questions or problems any of these guys will make sure you are 100% satisfied. Thank you!
