Saybrook Auto Barn

While I didn't end up "closing the deal" with Seth, I cannot help but want to share my 5-star…read moreexperience with Saybrook Auto Barn! I first started speaking with Seth in September 2021, and he was willing to hold the car that I wanted to buy for more than a reasonable amount of time, with only a $200 deposit! Unfortunately, I had to leave for the West Coast unexpectedly shortly after my great find. I informed Seth of my circumstances and he was beyond understanding, he called and left me a voicemail shortly thereafter to obtain my card # to refund my deposit, and, well, life happened and I forgot all about the deposit until yesterday, January 11, 2022 (4 MONTHS LATER!). Not only was Seth quick to get back to me, but was just as pleasant to speak with and work with even knowing that I still wasn't a "closed deal". It is rare to find [honest] "used car salespeople", but rest assured that Saybrook Auto Barn is not a great resource to find amazing deals on used cars, be they are extremely helpful and courteous on all fronts, and services they provide for their customers. I highly recommend giving them a go when you're on the hunt for a used car! THANK YOU AND SAYBROOK AUTO BARN, AGAIN, SETH!

VERY NEGATIVE EXPERIENCE…read more I walked in told John the vehicle I was interested in. The first item he wanted was my registration to my car I was trading in. Then he gives me the keys to the car I planned on buying and said you can look at it but you cant drive it! They stated the trade was low because of the interior. The interior had a missing leather piece from the gear box. My seats were fine and they stated all of my interior was in poor condition. John didn't even let me drive the car I was interested in. He was more concerned with gathering my personal information. I should have stopped him and walked out but I didn't. John only concentrated on the negative and not being positive about the car buying process. The employees at the showroom not very friendly, no one said Good Morning. Lastly, while leaving trying to make a cup of coffee - Keurig - and it wasn't working. There was another customer helping me, still wasn't working. The receptionist just staring out the window. I just could not wait to leave that place and annoyed at myself for not just walking out. Buyer beware!

Great Service All Around - The team at Kia Old Saybrook is great. We went in and found what we…read morewere looking for, a 2024 KIA Telluride that we saw on their website. Mike worked with us on making sure that was the car we wanted. He went through our options of other choices on the lot and no pressure to decide right away. Anthony and Alex were great with closing the sale and getting the paperwork in order. Our old KIA was in service, so we met Jimmy and he was awesome also. Definitely one of the best car buying and services we have experienced over the years.

We have had great luck with our 2019 Sorento, and knew that our next vehicle would be a Kia as…read morewell. It's important to lay the ground work for this review. One older Kia to keep Or trade in And the need to have two vehicles when all was said and done We visited the showroom and met Madison (Maddie) Barfield, our Customer Advocate (they don't call them salespeople, and they don't pay commission) last Saturday. She's incredibly knowledgeable and capable, and knows the Kia line and many features very well. We spoke about our needs and expectations, and we ended up looking at a number of vehicles. The gas Sportage didn't get great mileage, the Hybrid was a little more expensive but nearly 50% better mileage, and the plug in hybrid (we thought) was too expensive and required plugging in. But what about the whole issue of still carrying two payments, including one on an older car that was approaching it's 5 year/60 k warranty limit (power train is good to 10/100k at Kia) We started talking about purchasing a second vehicle for our student...the K4 was the perfect blend of style, function, and price for a graduate, right? Maddie introduced us to Bill LeConche, the GM, and he had some ideas... We drove the gas. We drove the HEV, we drove the K4. (Kia has such a great selection of quality vehicles and excellent warranties it's difficult to walk off the lot not seeing something that meets your needs) Maddie continued to assist, answering a ton of questions about functionality (the electronics on these things are amazing), and retrieving different vehicles to check out. Bill crunched the numbers. We had a long chat about the difference between PHEV and HEV. With available incentives, rebates, State programs, the PHEV Sportage became more manageable. And you don't HAVE to plug in. We had an answer! PHEV for us, K4 for our son. But wait, says Bill - what about an SUV for him? Huge style change, but if the numbers work, maybe? The point is, Maddie and Bill worked really hard for this deal. They worked up perhaps 10 different scenarios. They were polite and supportive the entire time. We ended up leaving there tonight (6 days after the journey started) with two brand new PHEV Sportages and trading in the Sorento. It just made sense, and Kia OS helped us see that. Taras Pashchak, the Finance guy, completed all the paperwork for two deals simultaneously. Everyone knows buying a car is like getting a root canal - time consuming, painful, and takes forever (with multiple visits just to add to the fun). The crew at Kia OS did a great job in asking the right questions, meeting our needs, and thinking outside the box. Yes, it still took a while, and multiple visits, but it wasn't painful - it was a great experience. Keep in mind, deals vary tremendously. Ours may not be yours. But they will make it work for YOU.

Contacted by phone and questions and responses was very thorough and responsive. Stephen did a great job of explaining everything along with the process and within a few days was able to get the make model and color that i wanted. Everything was smooth right from my house with the whole process. Relieves the stress and wasted time with actual dealers. Stephen provided great customer service from start to finish. Very reachable and answered all my questions. Pricing was super fair and found the price that i was looking for. Delivery was right to my house and my old car lease was swapped out. Paper work was all seamless and handled all by Make & Model. From attaining the DMV process and going through credit check and insurance i have been very satisfied. Prices were great. Definitely hit on all cylinders. Would highly recommend them and with no doubt use their services again.
