Blasius Kia

First time Kia buyer. The Blasius brand of dealership is well known and regarded. I had pleasure of working with Taulant Benga, salesperson. He is direct, interested and quick. He made it easy and left me feeling well served and respected. Thanks to Taulant and the Blasius team!

Tyler, Matt D, and John really kicked butt in helping me purchase my new 2024 Sportage! If you'd have told me 5 years ago that I'd be buying a new Kia, I would have said you were stoned. These cars have come a long way and I couldn't be happier! My son leased a new K5 from Tyler earlier in the year and he's been thrilled ever since. I wouldn't hesitate a second in recommending Blasius if you're looking to purchase or lease a new Kia.

Service and help I received in the purchase of my new Sportage far exceeded other transactions I've made in the past. If this dealership maintains it's present course I could see a great future ahead.

After months of searching for a used BMWi, drove 2-1/2 hours to Blasius Kia, Watertown from Long Island after seeing their ad- as described, it was Pristine! We bought it, but when we collected it 2 days later, at highway speed enroute home, we detected a problem with a rotor. Verified by our mechanic. Blasius offered to bring a new Kia to us, as a loaner. They collected the BMWi, returned it in 3 days, with new rotors on all 4 wheels, and with RunFlat tires as specified for this model. It was also freshly washed and had a full tank of gas! Unbelievable service!! Want to thank our salesman, Jon, Finance manager, John, and also John Rita, the Sales Manager who organized everything in such a timely manner! Feel very fortunate to have done business with them - it could have been a nightmare. Larry Thompson, Greenlawn, Long Island

I had no issues with the Dealership Rachel the Salesperson was great..Courteous and respectful..No issues with my overall experience.

Zabdiel really went above and beyond by bing an advocate for a lost sale due to the arduous buying process. Jason thanks for reaching out to get a deal done.

Our salesman Jamie was always kind and courteous. The finance department and sales managers, on the other hand, were not so nice. The first time I tried to buy a 2023 Niro Hybrid, the interest rates kept changing every time I spoke with John one of the Finance Managers. We argued and I called off the sale. A different Sales Manager. Matt, called me and assured me the interest rates would stop changing. He seemed nice enough and I scheduled delivery. On the day of delivery, I was told, a “manager” had somehow taken the keys to my new car “home.” Blasius told me we could finalize the deal and I would still drive my old car home. They would bring me the new car on Monday. I didn’t like that. I asked why the “manager” couldn’t be called and asked to return the keys. The person who took the keys suddenly turned into someone from the service department. I was told the employee could have left the keys in his pocket, or put them in the wrong car or maybe the keys were even numbered wrong. These employees couldn’t be called because they could be in Maine or on the Cape. It appears there is no accountability by those employees who have access to the new car keys. Now, Matt, who had seemed so nice, became surly and angry. He was more interested in shoving the responsibility for the missing keys onto an employee who couldn’t be reached. He began making foolish declarations like, “I’ll fire the employee on Monday or some of these employees are only twenty-two years of age.” Excuse me? Since when does age have anything to do with accountability? He even tried to put the blame on me saying they had tried to call and tell me of the problem but I didn’t answer my phone. Blasius called me three times Saturday morning. I was busy but I took the first two calls, and neither was about “missing keys” By the time I received the third call, I was driving to Watertown and I don’t answer my phone while I am driving. Through all of this, Jamie remained quiet and courteous. I told him I was sorry he wouldn’t receive the commission for selling me the car and it was not his fault. If I could buy a car without dealing with the sales managers and finance managers, I might do that but all of them seemed more interested in arguing with me than selling me a new car. I would caution anyone who wants to work with Blasius to be very careful. I read several reviews online and many others have found Blasius to be hard to deal with in various ways. We have a 2014 Kia Forte Koup. We have bought parts and had service done in Watertown. The parts department and the service department have been very helpful and courteous. However, the sales managers and finance managers are another story. In the end, we decided, no keys, no car, no sale.

I had a great experience today while purchasing a vehicle at Blasius Kia. Vanjovi Mangunay was very professional and friendly made me feel very comfortable. He answered all my questions that I had about the vehicle and helped me get to the payment I wanted. He also told me I can come by anytime I have questions about the car. I will definitely recommend him to anyone.

I PURCHASED A SPORTAGE 3 MONTHS AGO AND THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE PROCESS EVERYONE ONE I DEALT WITH ACROSS ALL DEPARTMENTS WERE MORE THAN JUST CURTIOUS THEY WERE HELPFUL, KNOWLEGABLE AND WENT OUT OF THERE WAY TO ALLEVIATE ANY CONCERNS I MAY HAVE HAD THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE PROCESS. I DID MY HOMEWORK WITH OTHER DEALERS AND MODELS AND THEIRS WAS THE BEST BOTTOM LINE FROM TRADE-IN, PURCHASE PRICE, OPTIONS, FINANCING AND FOLLOW UP AFTER PURCHASE. KIA HAS A GREAT LINE-UP OF VECHICLES AND I'D RECOMMEND THIS DEALERSHIP ALL DAY LONG. iF ALL THERE SALES FORCE IS AS GREAT AS JON KUTROLLI YOU CAN'T GO WRONG AT THIS DEALERSHIP.

The used vehicle service department failed me numerous times and lied about fixing the issues I brought my vehicle in for. Untrustworthy dealership at best
