Professional and very courteous staff
by James Barry on 07/08/2024Recently I had to return (again) to Lia Hyundai of Albany with my vehicle. There is no other Service Technician Representative besides Michael Carpenter that I would rather deal with. As soon as called and I notified of him of my problem,… he immediately scheduled me to return the vehicle to him and he worked behind the scenes with Hyundai Management on my Engine Malfunction for more than the 6th time!! Mike Carpenter, has ALWAYS gone above and beyond to address and attenpt to correct the many problems with my car engine.James, thank you for taking a moment to share positive feedback on Mike. We truly appreciate hearing from people who have been helped by our amazing team. Thanks for choosing Lia Hyundai!

Frankly Outstanding
by Ron G on 05/16/2024We were really impressed by Timothy Frank at Lia Hyundai in Albany. We dropped the car off using the after-hours drop box, and Tim got back to us first thing the next morning. I had a few questions and he responded right away. He also took… the time to speak with us when we came to pick up the car. Great service! Quick response! We wish our OTHER car dealership could do the same.We're glad Timothy made your day a little easier by being efficient and responsive. Thanks so much for your positive feedback on this experience. We look forward to your next visit with us!
Hyundai Tuscon Hybrid
by Stick on 05/08/2024Wayne Hopwood was fantastic to work with through the entire car buying process. He and the dealership worked with us over the phone on a car and the price since we live an hour away from the dealership. Their professionalism and lack of… pushiness in the stressful car-buying ordeal was comforting. They found a common ground on a fair price and we did not have to deal with the "dance" of buying a car. We would definitely recommend Wayne and Lia Hyundai.Thanks so much for your stellar review of Wayne! Nothing means more to us than your satisfaction, so we're pleased Wayne did everything he could to make sure your transaction was smooth. Congratulations! Best wishes for amazing travels in your new Tucson Hybrid!

In with the old, out with the new
by Gil on 02/15/2024After narrowing my choices to 3 top makers and models, I test drove the three, and without reserve I settled on the Hyundai Tucson SEL. I was looking for a quiet ride, AWD, roomy interior with ample cargo space and a GPS system. The Tucson… checked all the boxes plus it combined a sturdy feeling and classy look that the other 2 lacked. With a top warranty and reliability rating that matches or exceeds the competition, it was an easy choice. I liked the ethnic diversity of the agency. There were no pressure tactics at any point. I got a very competitive trade in offer, and the price I wanted on the new car. My salesman, Shawn Vital, was very helpful and patient explaining any unfamiliar new accesories. The 35 mile ride home did not disappoint and gave me plenty of opportunity to enjoy the quiet interior and to get the feel of car. I have a good feeling about this car, and Im going to enjoy not poring through piles of specs and surveys to find my next car for a while.Thank you for this absolutely amazing review, Gil! We're thrilled to know how pleased you were with Shawn's support and expertise. Congrats on the new Tucson! Best wishes for awesome travels, from the whole team at Lia Hyundai!
So happy with my new Palisades and the my experience with Lia Hyundai
by Barbie and Ken on 02/12/2024I walked into Lia Hyundai not long before closing the other evening and was immediately met by Shawn Vital, a young salesman with a welcoming smile. I knew what I wanted to look at and hopefully test drive. I had some questions about the… car and Shawn knew the answer to everything right off the top of his head. I was amazed. He didn’t need to refer to any handbooks. Working with Shawn was a delight. We handled everything quite quickly. I hate the game of negotiating when buying a car but with Shawn we managed to come to an agreement easily. He wanted to make this happen and worked with me. Two days later I had my car. Shawn made sure everything was ready for me. I know he will be there as a resource of support, should it be necessary during my lease of this car. Before I left, Shawn introduced me to the service department and showed me the entire facility. It’s the kind of place where one can relax and read while the car is in for service. I couldn’t be any happier for choosing to work with this dealership and by the luck of the draw, to have Shawn as my salesman.Thank you so much for your amazing review! We are honored to have had the opportunity to work with you, and we are so glad that Shawn provided you with 5-star service. Your satisfaction means so much to us. We warmly congratulate you on your new Hyundai Palisade and we wish you the safest of travels until we meet again!
