  • Overpromise but underdelivered

    1 out of 5 starsby Thebeckfour on 05/07/2025

    When I made the appointment for service online, I selected to stay and wait while the car would be serviced. So I arranged child care, drove 45 minutes, planning to be there for a few hours, potential most of the day, and upon arrival I was told that wouldn't be an option. I would have to leave it 24-48 hours. So my husband had to leave work, drive an hour and a half round trip to pick me up and take me home so it could be left. Then two days in it hadn't even been looked at. Which was a Friday. So it would now be Monday before it was even looked at, let alone work done. We needed the car for the week so we had no choice but to drive back into town to pick it up on Saturday. All of our time, gas, etc was wasted. There shouldn't be an option to stay while work is done and appointments shouldn't be allowed to be scheduled if the car cannot be serviced in the time frame given.

  • Car Purchase

    2 out of 5 starsby 23 Elantra on 07/25/2024

    We purchased a 2023 Elantra on a Saturday. It didn’t go through detailing at the time . The new salesman reassured us this was a CPO vehicle and stains in seats and holes in carpet will be taken care of. It was a 2 hour wait to go over the paperwork. They only had one finance guy there who was new.Our sales person was nice but new. We when to pick up the vehicle on Tuesday 6:30pm the vehicle didn’t have any gas,the interior was not cleaned that well the stains were still there . All they did was vacuum and wash the exterior. The car mats was ordered after I complained some more because they were trying to give mats with holes in them. After cleaning the car 4hrs it looks alot better even getting some of the smoke smell out . The trunk had all kinds of trash all in the wheel well which I still have the picture. The lights are building moisture in them. Service stated that the car will sit there 5-7 days for diagnostics to be performed. A comment was made this is a used car.

    5 out of 5 starsby tonymeade on 04/13/2024

    This is absolutely the best dealership I’ve had the pleasure of doing business with. They had the car I was looking for and offered the best price anywhere. The sales people worked hard to get me what I wanted at the price I asked for. There was no hard selling but genuine concern to make me happy with the deal. Will only deal with them in the future.
    • Hi Peter, we are very happy to have provided you with such a positive experience! Please don't hesitate to reach out if there's anything additional we can do for you. Take care!

    5 out of 5 starsby JPS on 02/07/2024

    I went back and forth with another dealer over the lease of a new Hyundai. Went to Autonation website, checked inventory, made one call and reached agreement on a vehicle that has more options, a lower MSRP, and lower monthly payments, and saved $4200.00!!

  • Service

    3 out of 5 starsby Pam Hall on 01/11/2024

    My service took a long time (an entire week) and I did not like that on top of that, I had to pay for a rental car for an entire week for an additional 400.00, over the cost of the servicing. People are always friendly as usual, but they are always extremely busy and it takes a long time to get my service completed. I live in Gilbert, SC which is an hour drive into Columbia, and then have to wait 3-4 hours to get my car serviced on a regular basis is awful. I'm still having the problem of my "checking systems" notice staying on for longer than usual but I don't want to bring it back in and have to pay another rental fee on top of that.
    • Hi Pam, we regret your experience with us here, but are glad you brought this to our attention. Please call our General Manager at (803) 973-8078 for ways we can work towards resolving these issues. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

  • Awesome buying experience! Maybe the best ever!

    5 out of 5 starsby Drew Y on 01/09/2024

    Sales associate was very respectful and the sale manager was great as well. The process was better here than other locations just up the road. These folks made me feel at home and respected. They were just real people if you know what I mean. That went a long way with me. The product really speaks for itself so I will not go into great detail. However, we are very impressed with the Palisade Calligraphy. Awesome ride. In all, if you want a great buying experience then see the folks at AutoNation Hyundai Columbia.
    • Hi, thank you for your positive review. We're happy to have been of service to you. We're always here to provide exceptional service at a great value -- we hope you'll consider us again in the future!

  • Great dealership experience

    5 out of 5 starsby LexingtonRob on 11/07/2023

    Fantastic experience dealing with AutoNation Hyundai Columbia. We purchased a 2024 Palisade in August and returned to buy a 2023 Santa Fe in October. On both occasions, Tylor located vehicles with the equipment and color combinations (exterior and exterior) we wanted, and good deals on both including very attractive trade-in values and final pricing. I highly recommend them.
