DON'T TRUST THESE PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY TYREL POTTER!

by Mark S on 04/20/2024

In october 2023 I was on the market for a new Kia Forte. After a bunch of calls and emails one of the Sands Kia salesmen (Tyrel Potter) offered me on the phone Kia Forte GT-Line for a price of 23K out-the-door. Once I arrived at the dealership he already prepared all the documentation, but the price was different: 25K out-the-door. I told him that I'm not going to buy the car, to which he offered me a free lifetime oil change package to compensate the price difference. I agreed. Tyrel told me that the manager who is responsible for this package's documentation already left (because it was pretty late in the evening), but he reassured me that he will take care of it tomorrow and even quickly showed me some sort of a paperwork with his signature as a proof of this package's existence. Fast forward a month, I still didn't receive any physical proof of this "lifetime oil change package". After asking multiple times on the phone and in the email to send me physical copies of documentation, I always get a different excuse (e.g. manager is not here today, but we will do it tomorrow or next week). Fast forward another couple of months, I arrived at the Sands Kia dealership for a first service and asked Tyrel Potter in person to clarify what's going on with my "lifetime oil change package" and he LIED directly to my face (I have him on record) that everything's fine and it's some sort of a mistake and he will take care of it next week. After I left the dealership Tyrel Potter stopped replying to my emails, texts and calls, so I decided to speak with his manager Christofer Robinson. Turns out this "lifetime oil change package" doesn't even exist, so essentialy Tyrel Potter TRICKED me into buying a car with a made-up package and KEPT LYING about it for a couple of months. DON'T TRUST THESE PEOPLE! P.S. Tyrel I hope you sleep well every night knowing that you scam people and I sincerely hope that your children will be treated the same way I was treated by you. Good luck!

Sads Kia

by William on 02/05/2021

The salesman Emmit Hawkins was very comfortable to work with. We did not feel pressured and he explained to us what vehicles were available to us. Not a lot of going back and forth on the price of the vehicle and trade in. Very easy process

Sands Kia survey

by Lisa on 02/05/2021

I was treated like a person and not a number. It was nice to be greeted by name and although I knew I was there for my first oil change and new tire, I appreciate that Derrick still went over it with me. He told me my wait time and offered me a ride home too. I was immediately called when car was ready and it was quicker than I thought. I even got my car washed and that was nice. I have already referred multiple friends and random people to Sands Kia.
