Suntrup Kia South
Dealership Sales Review
Suntrup Kia does not care about you, your money, or your business. Let me explain my ordeal: Kelly P. was my salesperson. She was kind and worked hard to find the car I wanted. I am very picky and knew what I wanted. I knew getting what I wanted would take time, so I was patient. I intended to lease a new 2021 Kia Seltos. I had been waiting for these cars to come out for a long time, knowing my lease was coming to its maturity date. These cars were officially released Super Bowl weekend 2020. The very next day, I went to Suntrup and met Kelly. I went in knowing the EXACT car I wanted - a 2021 Seltos SX Turbo, white with black roof, grey interior, push-button entry and start, heated seats and steering wheel, and AWD. I waited for months. The SX Turbo wasn't released until mid-March and it seemed nobody was getting the color I wanted. She kept searching, I kept waiting. Eventually, she found me the EXACT car I wanted. I was so excited to finally get it! Suntrup Kia was supposed to trade another dealer for this car and was supposed to get it on a Wednesday and I was scheduled to pick it up on Friday. On Thursday, Kelly called and told me this car was sold by the other dealer right before they were supposed to get it. Okay...so fool me once, right? This isn't the first time Suntrup Kia has done this to me. When I was attempting to trade my 2015 Optima, I was looking to get a 2017 Sportage. Again, knowing what I wanted, they were going to trade another dealer for the car...three times the trade "fell through". So same story, different day. I went to Lou Fusz Kia and got the car I wanted (they also get one star for horrible customer service). So, long story short... Suntrup knew I was ready to sign for this car. Easily $30,000. But, they could care less about customer service which is a shame because their salespeople seem to be so nice. I guess their ownership and management is where the fallout occurs.
