  • Satisfied morning

    5 out of 5 starsby Tim Bardin on 02/20/2026

    Brandon was great! He outlined the process of the 15K service. I went for a walk to Rick's bike shop. Bought stuff. I was emailed a video inspection and progress. By the time I walked back; my newly washed car was waiting for me at the door. Very efficient.
    • Thank you for sharing your experience. We are so glad to hear that Brandon kept you informed throughout your 15K service and made the process clear and convenient.

  • Recall

    5 out of 5 starsby Dave B on 01/20/2026

    Came for an appointment today for 2 recalls on my 2019 Kia Sportage. Appointment was for 8:00 AM. I was taken care of right away and on time. This was stated as an hour and a half wait beforehand and that was exactly what it was. Service Adviser Kyle Depew was very friendly and very informative. We felt very taken care of and appreciated as customers. Thank You for an enjoyable experience.
    • Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are glad to hear your appointment started on time and that everything was completed as expected.

  • Brandon provided exceptional service

    5 out of 5 starsby Rich S on 12/20/2025

  • Garvey Kia Sporty

    5 out of 5 starsby Rob on 07/28/2025

    We just purchased a 2025 Kia Sportage and the experience was great. Our salesman John Carmer was the best, he wasn't pushy, was very organized, well mannered, he knew his cars. We've purchased a lot of cars over the years and the experience was nothing compared to Gavey Kia. They are an excellent group of professionals there and we will continue our wonderful experience with them. Great job.
    • Thank you for the thoughtful review. We’re so happy to hear that John and the team made your experience such a positive one. Enjoy your new 2025 Sportage and we look forward to working with you again in the future. Thank you for choosing Garvey!

  • Awesome experience!

  • Great Experiences

    5 out of 5 starsby Happy Customer on 03/24/2025

    I stopped by Garvey Kia to check out the different trim levels of the Kia Telluride. John Starling walked me through the options and answered all of my questions, even knowing I was not currently in the position to get a new car. Many other dealerships don't really want to take the time if they don't think they can make a sale. After I left and did more research I reached out to John by email and picked up my new Kia Sorento Hybrid a few days later. Everyone at the dealership was friendly and easy to work with. The one downside of the dealership is the lack of space for parking and inventory; however, they are currently building a new dealership to allow for the space they need.
  • Perfection

    5 out of 5 starsby Kim C on 03/24/2025

    Best car buying experience ever. I Never felt pressured, or like my time wasn’t valuable. I didn’t get passed around to talk to manager, or finance, as has been my experience in the past at other dealers. John Starling found the exact car I was looking for and kept me informed every step of the way. I will never hesitate to do business with Garvey Kia, and can’t recommend John Starling in sales enough.
  • Thanks John - love my new car!

    This is our third Kia we have leased from Garvey. John Starling helped us through the process. He was very patient and honest when explaining our options as well as the differences in models and upgrades.

    5 out of 5 starsby Rob Dennis on 12/12/2024

    John Starling was amazing helping us get into our 2020 Chevy Traverse! He explained everything in detail and was straightforward with his answers. He helped us every step of the way and we are so grateful!
  • Are you looking for a new car with a great experience! GREAT HERE IT IS.

    5 out of 5 starsby Mikayla on 11/05/2024

    My family and I worked with Kevin Baker buying our new 2025 Kia Sportage, He was amazing and helped us through each step with such ease if you are looking to buy a car go to him you will find yourself a great experience. Garvey sure has an amazing employee. Thank you for being so kind and patient. We sure will be sending everybody we know that is looking for an amazing car buying experience to him. I would recommend him a million times over.
  • If I could I would give zero stars.

    1 out of 5 starsby Carly Dwyer on 07/03/2024

    I had an extremely disappointing experience with the service department at Garvey Volkswagen [Queensbury, NY]. I took my car in for a minor issue with my light sensors, which they claimed later was due to a blown fuse from my dashboard camera. They initially quoted me an outrageous $1200 for the repair, which they then lowered to $800 and finally to $600 after arguing the cost. The real issue is their dishonesty. They insisted the fuse was blown and required expensive repairs. However, I have video footage from the dashboard camera, which is connected to the supposedly "blown" fuse, showing that it was working perfectly before and after their inspection. This proves that the fuse was never the problem and raises serious concerns about their integrity. Despite presenting this evidence, they were dismissive and did not acknowledge their mistake or offer a satisfactory resolution. Charging $600 for a $10 fuse, and being dishonest about the repairs needed, is unacceptable and unethical. I would strongly advise against using Garvey Volkswagen’s service department. Their dishonest practices and lack of transparency are alarming, and I will be taking my business elsewhere in the future.
