My experience at Jerry Smith KIA, Burlington Washington was a pleasant one. The moment I walked…read morein, everyone was engaged and thoughtful. My wife and I had our questions answered by Malyki while the other salesmen introduced my 3 year old son to a "kid room", and even blew him up balloons in order to keep him occupied. Most dealerships will try to do the opposite... Antsy kids lead to antsy parents... Which lead to quick and less thought out decisions. We don't settle, so we were there for five hours the first day, and came back for a few more the second day, but the experience itself was pleasant (as pleasant as it could be). We spoke with the manager (Randy), and he was set on making sure that our needs were met. We immediately sensed that he genuinely cared... which he did. He spoke, he listened, and he worked with us in order to meet our concerns and demands in the middle while supporting our financial/automotive needs. Final note: after reading some of the negative reviews, I am shocked! (due to my families' own personal experience... And I am not easy to please lol) Everyone should be doing their research before a purchase. Salesmen have a job to do... But as a buyer... You do too. ALWAYS keep that in mind.

If I could give Rairdon's Kia a zero rating, that is what they would receive Jerry Smith was…read morebought out by Rairdon's Kia. Ever since the buyout, Rairdon's have looked for ways to get out of continuing the lifetime oil change service as per new vehicle purchase agreement with Jerry Smith. Michelle at the service desk is rude, has no customer service skills, and states it takes 90 minutes to change oil and look over the car I was simply having my oil changed before buying a new Kia. They have lost my business! I will not purchase a new vehicle from here! It's all about customer service to me as a previous owner of a car repair shop. If they can't take care of the small stuff with a smile and personality, what would it be like in a time of more serious car issues?

I am writing this on behalf of my mother in law. She has been a long time customer here and never…read morequestioned the service. She recently brought her car in for an oil change and they brought up a few other items that she should take care of, one of them being her brakes. The CSR gave her a form that listed she needed pads, rotors, and calipers to the tune of +/- $1,800. Thankfully my son was with his grandma and the suggestion of calipers struck him as odd. I am a mechanic so they had me take a look at the information provided. The Burlington Automotives mechanic that did the inspection on her car did call out her brake pads(and a few other small service items), but did not call out rotors or calipers. I did a brake job on her car and, indeed, it only needed pads with the rotors being perfectly smooth and within spec. The calipers were also in great shape with the dust seals still attached, no cracks or anything like that. We went to talk with Louis, the Store Manager, and he first said that pads and rotors are often changed together and thought it was weird the mechanic didn't call out the rotors. I stated it was because the rotors are fine. I asked about calipers and he went into a story about them potentially seizing if there is wear, again, not called out by the mechanic and the dust seals are in great shape. He then said that the CSR was "new" which is a cop out. If the person is "new", they should have oversight and that still doesn't explain how the mechanic got it right and the CSR got it wrong. When I asked what thier policy is for the hand off of information, he said the CSR should take exactly what the mechanic says BUT rotors and pads go together because It can cause uneven wear, we also dont turn rotors, we just go new. It is a real shame because this sort of things gives all mechanics a bad name. To be clear, the actual mechanic's report was on point and I think he was a fine mechanic. The CSR and Store Manager, though, should be ashamed of themselves At the end of the day, they tried to screw an old lady out of a bunch of money. Louis barely apologized, trying to make every excuse he could to get out of admitting they wronged her. They didn't have her best interest in mind.... do they have yours?

I've been repeatedly assured that it was fixed, only to discover loose zip ties holding hoses together in my driveway last night. This is not the first time my car has leaked diesel all over my driveway. While I understand that staffing issues and mistakes can occur, the level of service I've received is unacceptable. My vehicle has undergone several major services intended to maintain its longevity, yet it has sustained damage in the process. Additionally, my shift cable remains unreplaced by Bavarian, and the fluid leaks persist! This ongoing situation has been nothing short of a headache.
