Amazing experience with George Estrada!
by 04/13/2021
onWe had an amazing experience with Kirby Kia Ventura, but also with George Estrada, our sales rep! He was so kind, patient, his follow up was great, and he got us the price/deal we wanted! He's one of the best car sales people I've worked with (and I've bought a lot of cars)! I have already recommended him to 2 people that want to buy Kias, and will continue to do so! Thank you George for being so great!

New Car!
by 03/21/2021
onI have never purchased a new car on my own, and I am 62 yrs old. I always had my Dad or husband to deal with car sales people but this day I was on my own. I was dreading this process. After visiting 2 other dealerships (Not Kia) shopping for a SUV, I visited Kirby of Ventura. Was greeted by Jonathan Garcia has he was ready to settle down for lunch. He delayed lunch time to show me vehicles. Jonathan showed me a couple of different SUV's. He actually knew about each one explaining each detail. We looked at a Sportage on the back lot, which I ended up purchasing. Steve, the boss even honored my discount offered thru Perkspot with my employer. To my surprise, the staff at Kirby did not pressure me and made this a pleasant experience. I recommend Kirby and especially Jonathan if you are in need of a car.

Great deal, great customer service
by 03/08/2021
onI’m so glad I took the decision to travel from Bakersfield to Ventura (which realistically is not that far and is a nice drive) My experience leasing a car from KIA of Ventura (KIRBY) was excellent! I worked with John Gonzales, he was fast to answer all my questions he definitely knows the car business and he went above and beyond to make everything go smoothly, working with John Gonzales (Internet sales manager) Jose Valdivia (Sales Manager) and David Kim (Finance director) was an absolute pleasure. This is the easiest dealership I have work with, if you are considering buying or leasing a KIA , I highly recommend KIA of Ventura they are honest and helpful people Kia of Ventura definitely have an impeccable customer service

Stress free car purchase
by 03/08/2021
onDeanna was very helpful, efficient, and easy to work with. I “reserved” the car I was interested in, online, and she called asking if I was still interested in viewing it. I told her I would be there in 20 min and by the time I got there it was pulled to the front of the dealership ready to go for a test drive. The process of purchasing the car was very easy and stress free. Overall great experience at the Kirby Kia dealership!

Trade in low ball. Said one price and gave another. Rude and untrustworthy.
by 02/18/2021
onDo your research. If you plan on trading in a car, make sure you know the value of your trade in. I was told that I would get $3,500 for my car and after the deal was signed, I saw that they only gave me $3,000. The next day, the dealership where I purchased the trade in car returned my call and offered me $5,000. I asked Kirby Kia right away (in person) if they would give me my trade in back and allow me to get an additional $2,000. I was told that the deal was signed and there was nothing I could do. The salesman "Pip" was awesome. Everyone above him has lost my trust and respect. The way the manager spoke to me and carried himself was unprofessional. Nice before the deal was signed and rude after. Do not shop here.

Deceptive Pricing, Buyer Beware!
by 02/04/2021
onThey have service tiers they don't advertise online, and don't have posted in their service center. They withhold this information from you so when you come in for your service, you don't see the upsell (into tiers they still don't describe) coming until too late. On top of that, their service counter charges far more than their online (KiaCheapParts.com) counter. Any service you've had from them that involved a part purchase, there's a good chance you were fleeced. In my case the quote was inflated by almost a thousand dollars over their actual part price. Even further, their staff insist on expensive and unnecessary repairs. In my case, an exhaust fix is needed. There are two possible parts, the $1320 part or a $660 part. The two are both CA legal, but they are not interchangeable- different mounting points. My car has the $660 part installed; I sent them a picture. They say I need the $1320 part (per the VIN), and "can not in good faith" sell me the cheaper part. Their good faith has no objection to wasting my time with a part that they've seen for themselves won't fit! These guys were a waste of time and money. Very polite and friendly about it, but obviously zero regard for me as a consumer or my Forte as a Kia product.

Kirby is great
by 02/01/2021
onI just got my third Kia from Kirby. This is my first at Kirby and the experience was great. Alex was our salesman he was great. I knew what I wanted and Alex was able to order it. The telluride came in 15 days early too. These guys and girls are great at this dealership. Thanks again for the great job.

George Estrada - the CONSUMMATE car salesman!
by 01/17/2021
onI can't say enough good things about George Estrada of Kirby Kia of Ventura! George is the consummate car salesman, setting the bar across the board for a PERFECT customer experience! From the moment I reached out to him via email inquiry, George was responsive, straightforward, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful. His upfront honesty, integrity, and professionalism immediately earned my trust. George not only gave me a outstanding deal on the exact car I wanted (minus the back and forth game playing that I'd encountered elsewhere), but actually drove the car to my home 1-1/2 hours away on a Sunday evening; then spent several hours orienting me to all my new car's bells and whistles. And I haven't even mentioned George's follow-up and repeated offers post purchase to go over all of the vehicle features once again. He treated me as though I was a member of his family - going above and beyond in every aspect! The entire experience could not have been more seamless and pleasant. My appreciation and satisfaction is unparalleled. George Estrada is truly the BEST! Without exaggeration, you will not encounter a better car salesman … and nicer guy.

A very good sales experience
by 01/13/2021
onAndrew Arroyo was so patient with me while I was trying to decide which car I would like to purchase. He went out of his way to show me options before I decided to purchase a 2021 Kia Soul. He was polite and easy to talk with and didn't pressure me into buying. Good job, Andrew and the rest of the staff who assisted me in my purchase.

2021 Forester Touring

oni purchased a 2021 Forester Touring from Jim Read, the Internet Sales Manager. I got the referral to him from Consumer Reports Magazine. The price was as suggested by the magazine so it was fast and easy. I was pleased with the deal and the way the transaction went.
