Written by Cindy on 08/14/2025

Went to purchase my new Kia and they did their usual add the world on. Said I HAD to accept the $1000 paint protection. I said no and they demanded it isnt optional. Proceeded to say we will reduce it to $699 and give you another $500 in rebates that I was already eligible for. Said if I want the car I have to take it not optional. Will NEVER refer them. Kia site states it absolutely is not mandatory. Its an optional add on.

Cindy, I'm sorry to hear about your experience with the paint protection add-on. We strive for transparency and it sounds like we missed the mark here. I would be happy to discuss this further and see how we can make things right. Please feel free to reach out at your convenience. Thank you, Greg Batiste - General Sales Manager - greg.batiste@tonkin.com
