Purchase of 2023 Hyundai Tucson

5 out of 5 starsby Heidi on 08/20/2025

Faiz Mandozai was a wonderful salesman. He was friendly, knowledgeable, accommodating and experienced. He explained the car’s functions in detail and was an absolute pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend looking for him at Lia Hyundai on Central Ave in Albany. He will take good care of you and ensure you are pleased with and comfortable with your purchase.
  • Heidi, we could not have asked for a more glowing review of Faiz. It's obvious he made sure you were well taken care of. Congrats on your new Tucson! May your satisfaction grow over many happy travels!

  • Much needed service

    5 out of 5 starsby Paul Oberting on 01/28/2023

    Had a couple problems with the car the night before so it really needed service right away. Car wouldn't start to get it over to Lia so I got AAA to get me going. Got there around 8:30 and was done by noon time. A lot of work done. Got updates on the service while it was being done. Car has over 120,000 miles on it and it still seems to run good.
    • Paul, we sincerely appreciate your trust in our service team, and your positive feedback let's them know to keep up the great work. Thank you! We hope to be of service to you again some day. Pleasant travels until then!

  • Great time

    5 out of 5 starsby Mary Ann on 01/20/2023

    Brought my car in for service and Timothy Frank took care of us. Great service. Very friendly. He cares about his customers. He brought my car in so my mom didn't have to go out in the snow. We were in and out quickly. I was looking at another car and he wanted to know how we made out.
    • Hey, Mary Ann! Thanks so much for sharing positive feedback on your visit with Timothy. We're happy he took the time to provide a really accommodating visit for you and your mom. We hope to emulate this outstanding experience at your next appointment. We'll see you then!

  • Couldn’t be any better!

    5 out of 5 starsby Dani loves Hyundai on 11/16/2022

    First of all I’ve bought 2 cars at this dealership in the last 15 years and the only reason it wasn’t three was that I was living out of town. Lia and Hyundai stand by their cars and support their customers. I’ve had my current car 13 months and the only reason I had to bring it in was for inspection and it’s first service visit, less than 8K miles this year soooooo. Timothy Frank was awesome! At my door just after I drove into the garage bay. Quickly took my car back, told me what time it would be ready and showed me to the comfortable waiting area. My car was ready EXACTLY at the time he said it would be. Loved that my scheduled maintenance was included so I walked out of the shop in an hour for just the $10 inspection cost! I’ve had a 2002 Elantra, 2006 Sante Fe, 2015 Sonata and now a 2022 Elantra and I can’t imagine buying or leasing anything else!
    • Dani, your delightful review just made our day! We could not have asked for a better endorsement of Timothy or of Lia Hyundai. We're honored by your loyalty and we hope to always provide you and your Hyundais with phenomenal service. Thanks for your thoughtful feedback!

  • Quality experience

    5 out of 5 starsby Ray Tassini on 11/10/2022

    Wayne Hopwood is the perfect sales person for people like us. He knew the car, asked the right questions, & explained options so we could understand. He made us feel comfortable through the entire process. In deciding between two similar vehicles our comfort level with Wayne made the difference.
    • Ray, thank you for sharing such a thoughtful review. We're pleased your experience with Wayne was so pleasant and your decision was that much easier to make because of him. The entire Lia team wants to wish you the most pleasant travels for years to come. And if we may ever be of service to you, we hope you won't hesitate to reach out. Thank you for choosing Lia Hyundai!
