Used Kia Forte for Sale in Fort Wayne, IN

My truck broke down in Ft. Wayne. AAA wrecker delivered me to Preferred Auto. Everyone there was very pleasant in my bad situation. I was very pleased with the service and repairs. Thank you all for helping me.

I love this car. Rides beautifully even at 75 on interstate. So economical. Comfortable. Great for the average family. Better than the Camry I owned.

On June 14th I purchased a 2007 Chevy Trailblazer SUV from IMAGE CARS, Inc. I purchased the SUV “As is.” Purchasing a used auto, I expect there to be things that need repaired, but I learned that the vehicle had numerous issues and at that point was told that it needed more than I was able to put into fixing it. Having bought the vehicle “as is,” I expected that I was stuck with it, but decided to send a letter to Image Cars and my salesman to let him know of the trouble I was having. Upon learning of my difficulties the salesman, Chip, and owner Amar immediately contacted me and set up a meeting for me to come in and talk to them. Concerned of the treatment I would receive as a female and having had unpleasant experiences in the past, I took an advocate with me and what followed simply blew me away! The gentlemen apologized for the difficulty I had had both with the mechanical problems and upon finding out that I rely upon my vehicle for my job and had missed work because of it. They asked me to return the next day to give them time to see what they could do. As I admitted above, I held prejudiced views towards car dealers due to bad experiences in my past, so still feeling nervous and unsure of what to expect I returned the next day with my advocate to find that they had found a vehicle that was similar but much more sound and safe. They allowed me to take the vehicle with me over night to get to know it and have it checked out by an independent party to see if I would like to trade for it. They also stated that if I did not like it they would keep searching for me. I now have a safe, reliable vehicle that I love. Image Cars, Inc., went out of their way to be sure of that. Amar told me that I could have come to him right away with the issues, and that I needed to be sure to let him know immediately if I had problems with the trade. Amar, Chip, and Image Cars, Inc. have taught me that all car dealerships are not the same. These gentlemen are respectable businessmen who have impressed me with their integrity and willingness to go above and beyond to have satisfied customers. I am pleased to be able to share this review with anyone who reads it. And my appreciation for the honorable way they run their business. They set the standard for what a dealership should be.

Purchased new and am now going on 104,000 miles. Super reliable, peppy, and affordable. Other than replacing brakes and new tires, the only maintenance needed has been oil changes and suggested manufacturing maintenance. Trunk cargo is HUGE. Great in snow with snow tires. Unfortunately, the engine just started making "ticking " noise. Guess it's time for another KIA!

Did not buy the car decided to stay with what I have. Do believe if I ever look again I will be looking here. Very nice and professional people

Bought this car a day ago and behind the wheel is peeling not to happy about this at all but love the outer look and the seats and drives great

Wow I had gone to another dealership and got treat so wrong. Found this dealer and amazing Matt treated us so well and they made what I could afford worked. Plus side free car washes. Would recommend 100%.

This is a pretty good car for the price. Fuel economy is very good. It performs well. I would consider buying another Kia if it was from a different dealership.

I have tried other places in Fort Wayne over the years and non of them come close to my experience at Fort Wayne Subaru. I've been taking my car there now for over 3 years and I consistently have a great experience and the value is also very good. Never worry that I'm being over charged or asked to buy anything I don't need.

We have not had theForte a little over a week. To this point the only issu is getting used to the layout of the controls. Being a creature of habit sometimes it takes w while to get used to something new but so far everything is great.

Jay Coplen Was 125%! Service was fast and correct! I will for sure come back to jay for service and help. Thanks, Gene

I think I will have this vehicle for years. I love the way it drives and the feel of it. Thank you for the assistance

Rick Kruger could not have been more helpful as I considered replacing my beloved 2007 Honda Odyssey (318,000 miles!). I didn't purchase my Odyssey at Don Ayres Honda, but I have been taking it there for service for about 8 years. The service department is fantastic. I've worked with a couple of great service advisors, and Dillon is just terrific. When I told Dillon Steenport I was contemplating replacing my Odyssey, and wanted to take a test drive during my last oil change appointment, he personally walked me over to the sales area, introduced me to the manager, and made sure the manager knew what I needed. The manager asked Rick to help me, and I am so grateful. I knew I would replace my vehicle with another Honda, and wanted something with great visibility, great handling, and lots of room. The Pilot met all those needs. Rick explained everything about the car, differences between models, updates from my '07 (a LOT), etc. Test drive went great. Rick did not pressure me at all; I never felt like I was buying a car. He was extremely helpful. When my husband came to test drive the car, Rick went over the car with him as well. We had a great experience with both of us there for the second test drive. When we decided to buy the car, Rick made it as easy as possible. Our finance consultant, Joe Gates, didn't pressure us at all and made that part of our transaction go rather smoothly. And finally, before I left the parking lot with my new vehicle, Rick went over everything again to make sure I understood the technology and all the extras. He helped set up my phone, and made sure we knew he was there for any future questions or concerns. I love driving my Honda Pilot! It handles very well, is roomy, and everything is where it should be on the Honda dashboard and steering wheel :). I don't feel like we've bought a car from someone we'll never talk to again; I feel like we've purchased a vital piece of equipment through someone who will see us through the lifetime of this vehicle. Thanks much to Rick, Dillon and all at Don Ayres!

This car is an awesome car with great features. I enjoy all the diffrent things it does it good on gas and has great power for speed. Very comfortable.

We purchased a 2012 Mazda 3 from Chip at Image. It took a road trip to get there so contacted them in advance and they held the vehicle for us. Price was very good. Customer service was excellent. The vehicle was new on their lot and required inspection and touch up body work. This prevented us from going up for it on the day we planned but rather than waiting until we got there Chip called in advance to let us know the car wasn't ready. Not a huge deal but I'm not sure every dealer would pay attention to this and it was appreciated. Would definitely recommend to others

Traded in a 2012 I had similar to this car for the 2015 version because I wanted a sunroof. I also liked the color and the fact that it was sporty. Got lots of compliments driving it, was comfortable an really hate to get rid of it because I liked it a lot but trying to purchase either a classic car or a motorbike for the summer plus I really could use the cash!

Customer service is top notch! From sales, service and knowledge of products being used. This is my 6th purchase with O???Daniel. Began 1986. New Olds Delta 88 Royal (86) New Pontiac Bonneville 1991 (Black-beauty) Used Olds Aurora 97 (I???m a widow now) Used Olds Aurora 98 drove 250,000 miles Used Dodge Journey Crew 2011 (silver-beautiful) New Chrysler 200c 2015 (lease 4-year 60/M) Used Chrysler Pacifica 2017 (22,000 miles began) That???s all for now. 😉

Love the fuel economy of this KIA Forte the ride is nice comfortable and quiet it has all the standard features needed for a EX except cruise control and a spare tire would be nice instead of a inflation kit other than that it is a well liked vehicle I hope it gos 200K miles time will tell of the longevity of this Kia it will be well maintained and cared for

Called on Friday March 11 @ 8am. Flat Tire. Only had the emergency tire kit ( No Spare ). Was instructed to bring car in and they would work me in. I arranged to have vehicle delivered to the facility @ 9:30. Chris Called to tell me that the car was @ the dealership and they would call me with the details. Received call about 10:30 that they could repair the tire and would call me when it was completed. Chris called after 1:pm and said the car was ready. I went to the dealership and the cashier said the cost was approx 65.00 dollars. I said that the cost quoted was $25.00 dollars for the tire. We reviewed the print out and noted that the scheduled service for an oil change ( 3 Days later was Monday the 14th ) was completed while the car tire was being repaired. Pleasantly surprised. Chris was called to re-do the paper work and the cost went down to $58.35. Everyone was very helpful@ the dealership.

Great car efficient Gas saving. This car is reliable. Great with my Bluetooth hook up for the phone. Just wish this car has back up camera.

This place is the most stress free dealership I ever been to and they don???t just get you approved with the first place they can they look for the best rates and deal they can get you and do their best to get you into a car you can afford and actually like I will most definitely be going back there as soon as my car is paid off to buy another one...will not be trading in my Kia tho 😎I like it way to much...a big thanks to Pete for being patient with my youngster and big thanks to finance guy(can???t remember his name sorry) who ended up getting me a cheaper monthly payment than originally quoted thanks again big city! And Damien for staying over the night of purchase!

great mpg it is a good ride for such a small car I drive 100 miles a day and average 40 miles to the gallon driving in country at 55-60 mph

All service items were performed in an acceptable amount of time and the charges were as I expected with no surprises. The only exception was concerning the battery replacement, which was concerning a warranty issue and the charges related to it. There was a slight communication issue which I take partial blame for. The issue was quickly resolved and the charges were adjusted accordingly, to my satisfaction. I feel that I was treated with due respect, as I have been with all previous visits. I don't feel that any additional service was forced on me, as has happened to me in previous experiences at other automotive service providers. I was even credited with a discount after I paid my bill. The credit was offered by E-mail while I was waiting for the services to be performed and I didn't read it until after I got home.This was very much appreciated and totally unexpected. I am amazed with your consideration and honesty.

I like our 2011 Kia Forte. It has been very reliable and the look of it is really nice. I am not to crazy about the resale value, but that is just due to the market. The interior is spacious as is the trunk. I was not sure how I would like the orange gauges, but I got used to it. Overall, it is a good car.

My husband told me about Carvana from a commercial ad he heard/saw. I laughed about it and said 'yah right, there's gotta be a hitch somewhere'. A few weeks later, he brought up Carvana again....curious, I decided to check it out online. The key words there was 'check it out'. I ended up buying a vehicle a couple hours later. Yeup, it was just like that. No hassle, no hidden costs or agendas. So after reviewing everything on the site, I started looking at minivans....I started falling in love with minivans....I started buying minivans....all through carvana. Once I locked in the one I wanted, I went through the credit process, documentation process, and pick up date (I chose pick up - because at this point, I still felt a little 'leary' about the whole deal'. It was so simple, and so honest, and so real. Over the course of the next 24 hours, all my submitted documents were approved and we just had two days to go to pick up the new mininvan. When we got to the store, it's not like a dealership with a lot, but it had three beautiful, well lit, very clean, showroom like bays that your vehicle is sitting in for your to do a complete inspection of it. It was very classy. Please note, our particular location does not have the car vending machine just yet. After passing our over check, I hopped in the car and drove it 65 miles home. She ran like a charm and I knew I had 7 days to decide if I wanted to keep her not. At day 3, although I loved her, she didn't have all the bells and whistles I truly wanted so that evening, I was back on the Carvana site, shopping for a replacement minivan....it's so easy to do when it gives you results based on your financial settings....I found the new 'her' a few hours later. I ordered her up and made the quick call explaining I was swapping and chose to have the vehicle delivered instead of going there to save time. The whole swap process took 2 days...they pulled up right to my house with my next new minivan. In my eyes, she was perfect, but I found a flaw before she was even off the truck. There was a huge bolt in the back tire. I was so disappointed. But Carvana took care of that so amazingly over the top.....they still brought her off the truck so I can check out the interior, test drive it, etc. We found a few more things that we felt should be fixed...minor things. Carvana took note of the items, and took the vehicle back on the truck but promised me (because I really wanted her that day) they would bring her back with a new tire....they kept their promise, three hours later she was back with a brand new tire, not one, but TWO brand new back tires. And they put an extra Carvana cup in the car for me. They swapped the minivans and off the old one went and there I sat with the new one. Smile ear to ear. I worked with Carvana on 6 items that we believed needed repair before committing to keep the vehicle. Carvana went above and beyond. I got an estimate for the repairs at a local shop, Carvana approved it, and within a few weeks, all repairs were completed through Carvana and I have the perfect vehicle, no hassle, no hidden agendas. And every person I dealt with on the phone or in person were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, FRIENDLY, HELPFUL, AND JUST THE BEST!! My Carvana experience was the absolute best. I will never go back to buying a car the old 'car dealership' way. And ironically, we had bought our other vehicle from a dealership just 3 months before being introduced to Carvana. I will give one warning about buying a vehicle through Carvana this way....it can be addicting..lol :-) Yes, I still shop Carvana cars every now and then....I don't even need a car, I just love seeing what Carvana has because it was sooo simple :-) Thank you Carvana for a trememdously wonderful experience.

I love my new car. My last car was a sorento and I was looking to save money and my new changed was perfect for that.

Buying a car is stressful even if you have a lot of experience. Historically, it has been time consuming, emotionally taxing and most of us go into a dealership with far less knowledge than we ought for a purchase of the magnitude of a car. Salespeople have (understandable) pressures to move inventory and even the most fair-minded is looking to get the highest price they can get away with. It is harrowing at best. With my experience with Carvana, all of these stresses were eliminated. I browsed inventory as widely or narrowly as I wanted, for as long as I needed. I could dictate pricing ranges that were suitable for me. The car I received was *exactly* the car I examined online, right down to some inconsequential bumper scuffs. Beyond this, and *absolutely unlike* any other online business, I could speak to a *real human being* within a few minutes of calling (I had six or seven conversations with Carvana agents over the 3 1/2 weeks from car selection to car receipt). They either had the answers at hand, or researched them and replied promptly with a follow up call. Delivery coordination and drop off (and test drive) were *painless no pressure* experiences???all preparatory contract paperwork was prepared in advance leaving only title transfer stuff to take care of. It took 45 minutes, tops. (I transacted entirely in cash, so I cannot speak to the process when there is financing.) Honestly, the biggest delay was on *my* end getting the insurance transferred (having to wait on hold with my insurance company for 15 minutes). The car was 100% was described???absolutely no surprises. The images on the web site for my car were not stock images. What I saw was what I got. Naturally, it was clean, filled up with a full tank, with new tires and the whole nine yards. Even got a ???free??? Carvana reusable coffee cup and key chain. Nice touch. The part that I found the most extraordinary was the 7-day money-back guarantee, which pretty much covers a change of mind unless you get into an accident or drive it a ton (over 400 miles, and even then, they???ll take it back after a modest per-mile-over-400 charge). All in all, I was dreading buying a car (and selling my used one) and Carvana made it pleasurable. I am absolutely recommending them to all of my friends and coworkers and I hope (as a relatively new company) they keep up the excellent work.

Always looks new...has lots of room..easy to transport things. The hatchback is a wonderful car. The car feels like a mini Sports car, it definitely has a kick to it.

Purchased a Chystler 300 through Amy Walda and love it! She even came to our house to finish paperwork and delivered the car herself! Excellent personalized service!!! Thanks Amy :-)

This car has been the backbone of my travels since I was 16 and freshly on the road. From sleepy morning commutes to school, to providing a safe drive for the kids I babysit, to cross-country road trips on multiple, spontaneous occasions- this car has beyond served its purpose. It has been coast to coast and has likely traveled more than most Americans- somehow managing to stay in amazing condition. The only damage the Kia needed tending to were the tires from said extensive travel. This is an amazing car for a new driver, someone who travels often and wants to save $ on gas, or anyone that wants an extremely reliable car for an even better price. Highly, highly recommend!
