Used Kia Forte for Sale in Newport News, VA

Lorie Logsdon, Service Advisor, did a fantastic job. She made the whole experience pleasant. I felt comfortable interacting with the staff. Everyone welcomed me in and I forgot that I was a service shop and felt like I was just hanging out. I found the cost to be quite unrealistic. I was charged $85 for labor just to get my electronic key entry code reset (I did not know the code as vehicle was purchased used). I believe it shouldn't be that high for something so simple. No actual mechanical work was done. This was quite disappointed. The making of a spare key was about $25, this I can deal with. This is reasonable. Customer service was great but cost/pricing was a bit high. And for that reason, I would probably end up going elsewhere to get serviced for less. In today's world, where money isn't falling from the sky, it is hard to pay that bill - especially being a mom to 3 kids (with 2 being twins), it is hard having to give away money like that.

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

I have now had this car for a month, and I really like it so far. I'm getting great mileage compared to my previous car (old car 18mpg all around, new car 26-29 city - 35-39hwy) and it really helps when having to fill up. I have gone through just a full tank in 3 weeks - getting 340 miles per tank or so depending on if I drive it like a jerk which I rarely do. Only negative is that the salesman told me that the car had Kia's EVO system in it, and it does not. Just the standard touch screen which isn't a huge deal to me. Overall impressed, and happy with this car.

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

Looking for used car, set up appointment on-line. Was unable to do test drive based on used vehicle . Looking forward to next step in the process

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.

Hard to believe that even when 90% of the city was off of work due to a potential hurricane that the dealership was open. Had an appointment for 7:00 am Friday, September 14, 2018 and everyone was there and ready to go. Sam Vanderslice, my service rep for many, many years greeted me with his usual good humor. He immediately asked about family and friends that might be in the path of the storm. Even with some of his family in potential harm out of state he maintained his caring nature for others. I don't know who the tech was that did the work. Their name is no longer on the service invoice, but I would also like to thank that person. Work was top notch.

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.

My old car was my third minivan in 15 years. Now that my kids are older and leaving for college, I wanted something that could carry 6 or 7 passengers but was ... well... NOT a minivan. I did some research on late model used three-row SUVs, and found the 2017 Nissan Pathfinder. (My favorite of my three vans was a 2005 Nissan Quest, so choosing Nissan was easy for me.) Before I started browsing for cars, I applied for credit through Carvana, and was approved. Next, I entered in all of the information about the van I was trading for the Pathfinder. (Beware -- the trade-in amount is only good for 7 days, and it can change wildly in that time!) I was pleased with the trade amount, and it was great that I could shop for my new car and see my down payment and monthly payment for every car I viewed! My specifications were pretty clear -- AWD, less than 10,000 miles, and never a rental car. I found my dream car a few days later, and started the purchase process. It was quite smooth and the directions were very clear about what documents need to be uploaded. When I went to click on "finalize purchase" (or something like that), a red flag popped up...my trade-in value expired WHILE I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF CHECKING OUT! I got on chat with Carvana staff right away, and they were able to return the trade in value to NEARLY what it was before the expiration. This is something that needs to be addressed by Carvana -- once a customer is to a certain point in the process, those numbers need to be frozen. So we set a delivery time, and the Carvana rep was pretty much on time considering he was traveling 70 miles or so from the Chicago office. Everything was smooth -- signed a couple more papers, took my Pathfinder for a spin, Eric inspected my trade, and I left within 30 minutes with my new car. I would also like to add that I drove directly to my mechanic, so he could inspect the car and make sure I wasn't buying something with hidden damage. Mechanic said to me, "This car is perfect, like new." Just what I wanted to hear. Thanks Carvana! I am telling everyone I know about you guys. Good to work with you! Janet - 2017 Nissan Pathfinder

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.

This is a review of my SELLING experience to Carvana. I listed my car on Craigslist and was approached by an outsider buyer named Jan. She introduced me to Carvana, which I never heard of before, and it's process. She was very helpful and walked me through the process. The first deciding factor for selling to them was that they offered me the best price (vs. CarMax, Auto Nation, Trur Car). Then I realized the process was super streamlined. All I had to do was upload my documents and, after approval, schedule an appointment for the pickup of my car. Carvana sent a truck to COME TO ME to pick up the car. The driver (Lauren?) was very courteous and pleasant to work with, too. The pickup process, which included a one-mile test drive, took no longer than 20-30 minutes. Immediately after loading my car to their truck, I was handed the check, which I immediately deposited without any issues. My selling experience from being contacted by buyer to getting the check took just 10 days! (Would've been even faster if I was more timely with uploading my docs.) I'd highly recommend Carvana for selling your cars!

I've only had it 1 month but love it so far. It is a basic model but rides good, plenty of room, gas mileage is pretty good, looks beautiful.

Buying through Carvana was one of the best transactional experiences ever! I shopped for several months, test drove several cars to understand the models and features I was looking for. Then, boom, the car that matched come up in my search and I pulled the trigger. Within minutes, I had a value on my trade-in, purchased the car, (to include a very well priced extended warranty), and arranged for financing it through the Carvana website. And, while that was a very easy, non pressure experience, what made it really special was the delivery. Rachel, the Caravan rep, called me the day before the delivery to confirm, then called while in route to be sure not to leave me hanging. She was right on time, professional, and extremely upbeat. I had a genuine feeling that her priority was not only to deliver the car and pick up my trade in, but it was to make the final part of my experience a pleasure as well. Rachel was extremely knowledgeable of the process and did an excellent job of assuring I was informed of the "7 day, no questions asked, test drive" as well as the final paperwork to be processed. A few signatures and the trade-in was her's and the keys to 2014 BMW 535 were in my hands.

Wow. I bought this vehicle as a replacement to my commuter car that was end of life. It is way more than I expected. Out of the door, it was about 15k with service package. On a good day, this car gets over 40 miles to the gallon! I drive about a hundred miles a day and this car is super comfy. I am 6'1" tall and I fit perfectly fine in this car. There is so much leg room in this car its unreal. The car handles great, gets great gas mileage and is super comfy. I would totally recommend the Kia Forte for anyone who has a long commute.

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.

We were looking for a car for our teenage daughter. I emailed 1Stop Auto through the carfax.com website. The owner Scott called me and spoke with me. After talking a bit I told him I was also looking at a car in NC which he also looked up and said that's a great deal, even better than mine, you should look at it. I don't know many car dealers, especially owners, that would say that! We decided to go see the one he had on the lot and decided to buy from him and save the 7 hour round trip. Not only was it easy to agree on a price but he also took his time and walked my daughter through the paperwork, explaining it in detail as I signed. Couldn't have asked for a better experience! Thank you Scott!!

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

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

I've owned cars since the 70's. I've toured VW, Honda, Chevy, Nissan, Ford, Carmax and Toyota Dealerships, been to car shows, used car lots, junk yards - have kept a Chevy S-10 alive for 22 years - rented cars for the last 9 years of its life and in 2013 hunted for a used car. In short, I've been around and know what I like. I've had good and bad experiences. My visit to Checker Flag Toyota dealership was by far the best experience to date. Carmax was the lowest key, low stress, but not as friendly. Jaclyn has been my next door neighbor since last year. This was my first professional interaction with her and she was super. Easy to make an appointment, flexible when I arrived late, I was asked by almost all the staff that saw me waiting if I needed assistance. I got a full tour of all the options - new and certified pre-owned - sales and lease options. We drove a certified pre-owned Highlander XLE, 2015 model with lots of extras, some regrettably unique to that model year. I learned all about what made that SUV special, what makes Toyota great, what makes Checkerflag Toyota best of all. I gained a new respect for my neighbor too. The only things that kept me from buying the car right then were my personal circumstances and the ridiculously low value of my Chevy Colorado - I've lot $10k in 4 years after I bought it used. (lesson here - buy a Toyota if you want a car to hold value - painful lesson learned). I know my next car with be a Toyota and my only dealership will be Checker Flag in Norfolk. How's that for a productive day? Thanks Jaclyn for giving me a great introduction!!!

A five star rating for comfort, performance and styling. Nearly maintenance free. My 2016 Forte 5 EX is a keeper. Great value for the money.

The sale people were very knowledgeable , and was a pleasure to do business with. She had the service department clean the car prior to delivery and they did not half clean anything. The windows, interior seats, and carpet was not cleaned as good as previous car dealers had done. Overall Sale personnel are fine, Service personnel are not as good.

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.

this car you cant beat fuel mileage it gets it gets 38 to 45 mpg on a long trip we bought it one day and lift for virginia the next and we both love it

East Coast Auto is a 5 star dealer in my opinion.We had looked at several used car dealers in the Va Bch area and frankly felt uncomfortable with some of those dealers. Our experience at ECA was very positive from the beginning to the end of our car purchase process. Their sales team is professional, friendly and knowledgeable. I would certainly give them my first preference in looking for a used car and would recommend them to anyone interested.

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.

Shantelle Hunter worked hard to get me out of my Jeep and into my new toy a 2018 Chevrolet Camaro! It took sometime to find a bank for me and she personally did a great job maintaining and making sense all of the communications between me, the banks, and the rest of the RK Chevrolet Team. As a person that had a negative equity trade in and average credit rating, It was nice that she didn't pass on the trouble I brought over to another agent. This is considering she was actually tied to a different office at another lot. I applied for three different vehicles Steve and the rest of RK Chevy (including the management) haggled tenaciously with the banks for hours to get me deals on all three. Although some were too rich for my blood they were patient. They even went as far as to track down and lock down a specific 6spd manual 2018 Camaro that I had requested which was cheaper, only to eventually find that I had changed my mind again for an automatic with remote start. It felt great knowing that I was able to get that upgrade from and LS to 1LT for the same out the door price. After flip flopping between five different vehicles Shantelle stuck it out til the end. She believed she could get me into a NEW car at a loan amount twice more than I have ever had and produced all the effort to do it.

Looks small but has lots of space inside. Very comfortable. Good performance. Lots of helpful features. Used it for grocery shopping, long distance trips. Hauling computers to LAN parties etc...

Please don't take this the wrong way, but the exact way that I'm stating my fellings as the experience presented itself to me. I just recently 3-4 days ago, went to Southern Buick because while driving, my change engine oil message popped up on my screen. I immediately rushed to Southern approximately 2:30 PM. I told Carlos what was going on, and he so kindly said okay we can do it now, which was change my oil/filter as Southern Hospitality. I thought great, I don't have to pay a dime because I'm a member. While waiting Carlos approached me and said that this paper he's holding stated that I needed a brake-line flush $100-$110 dollars. He stated that by now, with my miles at 33K, I should've already had two. He said it was about safety, so I told him to go ahead and do it since they had my car. After paying for the work when completed, I went to Carlos's office and asked him, why didn't anybody tell me this before when they had my car previous times? This is my meaning of feeling snow-balled!!! I came in with paying nothing as a benefit, and left out with less money in my wallet! Why didn't the so called responsible person not suggest that flush prior, when they had access to my car many times earlier? You guys are great, but I always speak the truth! I wasn't so happy.

I’mMuscle car kinda guy, but my wife’s little 2016 Kia Forte is something else! I love the gas mileage it gets not to mention the hidden power when you put it in sports mode!

So reliable. Gas mileage is great. Trunk space is amazing. Had no issues going on 3 years now. Do wish I paid attention if there was Cruz control is my only complaint.
