Alex offered personable service. He checked out my car and offered service needed but narrowed it down to what needed done first and then what should be done for safety!

I have a recall on my optima engine so I made an appointment. The person that made my appt knew it was for a recall. When I get to Carriage Kia Alex tells me they do not have the part. My appt had been made for 2 weeks and the only reason I drove (30 miles one way) was to have this done. Do not feel the service was above 1 star.

This dealership has been amazing. I can go dealership and get my oil changed in usually 20 to thirty minutes. I have boughton at least three Kia souls from this dealership. the service center rocks and I just bought a new 2020 Kia soul through Morales and he was awesome. never pushy and took the time to answer any and all questions.
