    I am highly disappointed about how I have been treated by the Sales manager, Jarred Perkins as well as the General Manager Kendrick Echols. I started the process to purchase a used car and signed all of the paperwork on Friday, Feb. 28, 2025. Due to my co-signer being out of town I had to have them UPS the paperwork and it was signed received by their office on Friday, March 7, 2025 at 10:17am to a Tia. I called several times to confirm that the paperwork was received to the finance Manager Jon Yi, Jarrad, and Monique. No one called me back. I was out of town at the time on business and then was called and left a message at 12:36pm that day saying that they just sold the car to sold someone else when my paperwork was already signed and returned to their office AND they had my pre-approval check at their office as well. Mind you, my paperwork was already delivered and received. This is highly unethical, unprofessional, and deceptive business practices. I have been in constant communication with them and have done everything that was asked of me. I called the general manager Kendrick Echols on his work phone, cell phone, and emailed him and did not receive a response. When my husband came to pick up the check and papers that were signed no one apologized or even offered any explanation as to why they so blatantly wasted our time. This is the rudest most unprofessional business I have ever encountered. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME WITH THIS DEALERSHIP AND THEIR SHADY BUSINESS PRACTICES!

    How to lose a customer in 22 days.   I purchased a 2024 Telluride SX-Prestige X-Pro SUV on Oct 17 from an awesome sales rep who communicated professionally and worked fair a deal that was reasonable. We even worked this deal via text as he was working with his Sales Managers to get me a deal I could sign off on. Came in the next day to sign all the paperwork which was easy peasy. My trade in had some undiscovered issues that required an adjustment to the initial offer which was explained to me and I agreed the adjustment was fair and was impressed how the Sales Manager presented the adjustment in a professional manner. Head back to sign off on the finance paperwork and was working with another great representative of the dealership trying to sell add ons like extended warranty which was his job. I tried to negotiate a better price and then he had to bring the Finance Director because the number had gotten outside of his wiggle room. The attitude,  arrogance and condescending nature of this person stopped the negotiating dead in the tracks and I proceed to sign without any add ons which we were very close to making deal on.   Now let me say I absolutely love the Telly and deal I got from the Rick Case sales team. Now fast forward to wanting to add a tow hitch to the Telly a few weeks after purchase. There seems to be a lot confusion about adding hitches to 24 Tellys so I stop by to see my Rep and asked for help . The parts counter rep seemed to be off putting and bothered by me asking about this product that just became available in August. When I shared a letter from KIA US in regard to the product the parts rep could not be bothered to check with others and basically through his hands and said not sure what else I can do. I was amazed as I was there ready to spend money and this guy could not be bothered to dig deeper let along go the extra mile.   So, my sales reps says give me a few day and then follows up a product print out at full retail and said the Parts Manager had to get in involved because of the newness of the part. This is when I reached to GM via email to ask why the dealership was charging full retail for a product that KIA US is recommending passing on the cost savings for customer satisfaction. After 5 days of no response, I decided to reach deeper in to the Rick Case Automobile Group and actually connected with Ryan Case, the son of Founder Rick Case. I shared my story via email and text and he even shared my frustrations and dismay at the situation.  A day later I get call out of the blue from a scheduler at the Dealership asking about scheduling a time for install for a product I had not even purchased yet. When I asked who had told her to call me, she informed it was the Service Manager. I explained to her the confusion and lack of communication and asked her to please have this Manager call me to discuss. Well guess what, no phone call from this Service Manager so I call him the next morning to leave a message. Still no return phone or communications from the GM.   As my frustration  continues to rise, I reach back out to Ryan Case who did call me back and we discussed and shared his continued disappointment and frustration at his leadership team at Rick Case Kia in Duluth.  I shared with Ryan in our phone conversation and detailed emails that the  GM and Service Manager need a serious recalibration of leadership expectations and falling woefully short of delivering on the Rick Case Brand.   Ultimately, I connected with the Parts and Service Department at Bulldog Kia in Athens GA who was able to communicate professionally to ensure I can get the tow hitch at a fair price per KIA US directive and it will also be installed by them at that shop at a fair price.   And this is how Rick Case Kia in Duluth lost a customer in 22 days.   5/5 Stars to Sales Rep 5/5 Stars to Sales Management 5/5 Stars to Finance Rep 0/5 Stars to Finance Director 0/5 Starts to Parts Associate for lack of effort. 0/5 Stars to General Manager for zero follow up 0/5 Stars to Service Manager for zero follow up 5/5 Ryan Case of HQ for accessibility and empathy   20/40 Stars Overall Rating

My brother gets there and immediately knows it reeked of smoke even though they had tried to get it cleaned up and get the smell out. Then when I told them how disappointed I was with their lack of business ethics, that they would lie for the sake of one car sale, he tries to tell me my brother was wrong. That they had been burning incense in the car to get it ready for me! Ha! That was the most ridiculous lie I'd ever heard! At that point, he should have just been honest but nope.

Prior to authorizing a down payment, I confirmed with dealership staff that the total purchase price would equal the advertised price. After I provided written authorization for a refundable deposit contingent upon an independent inspection, the dealership introduced additional mandatory dealer-imposed fees totaling $1,245, including documentation, administrative, and reconditioning charges. These fees were not disclosed in the advertised price and were required in order to complete the transaction. Imagine, the dealership was trying to add on charges after the fact from them cleaning the car to sell! When I objected and requested that the dealership honor the advertised price inclusive of mandatory dealer fees, communication ceased on their end, not returning my messages. The vehicle was temporarily listed as pending and later relisted at a higher price on their site. Although no funds were processed, this conduct raises concerns regarding advertised price transparency and disclosure of mandatory dealer charges in direct violation of Georgia anti bait-and-switch laws. *UPDATE AFTER COMPANY RESPONSE*: As clearly admitted by the company, they completely agree with my entire review. Their made up bait-and-switch fees (such as attempting to add on a charge for cleaning the car) were told to me AFTER I had asked them for the total and provided written authorization (per their instructions) for a charge to my credit card based on that total, out-the-door price. Attempting to keep this original review brief, I left off many details. But here is another point which others should know: since I was buying from out of state, I wanted a dealer pre-inspection (of which I was going to pay from out of my own pocket). The salesman kept trying to get me to not send it to the local Audi dealer, but a CarX down the street. That raised more red flags.

They've made practical suggestions to keep our vehicle running longer and then made fun suggestions to see if we wanted to turn our quiet unassuming family SUV into a yuppie rocket wagon from hell!! We have always said that this is one of those vehicles that we will own until it dies. With help from Solo Motorsports... we plan on enjoying it and keeping it running for as long as possible.

This dealership completely turned things around, not only mending my relationship with them but GM as well. After I spoke with them, they took the situation seriously and worked with me to get it checked out. From there, the level of effort really stood out. Huge thanks to Micheal Brislin in particular. He went up to bat for me with GM and kept pushing for a better outcome instead of settling for the first answer. He also kept me updated along the way and made sure I understood what was going on at each step. In the end, they stepped up and made things right, and that completely changed my impression. Situations like this don't always go perfectly, but how a team responds makes all the difference, and in my case, they handled it the right way. I appreciate the effort and would definitely consider coming back because of it.

During the sales process, my salesperson, Adrian Custodio, was responsive and attentive. However, once the purchase was completed, communication became extremely difficult. Questions and concerns were only addressed after repeated follow-up calls to the dealership requesting to speak with him directly. When I first viewed the vehicle, there was a charging cable stored in the rear cargo compartment. After bringing the vehicle home, I discovered the cable was no longer included. When I contacted the dealership for clarification, I was given conflicting information and made to feel as though my expectation that an electric vehicle would include a charging cable was unreasonable. Unfortunately, no satisfactory resolution was provided. I also attempted to speak with a manager regarding my concerns and was directed to Steve Fricks, but I never received a response despite my efforts to reach out. Additionally, I took delivery of the vehicle during a heavy rainstorm and quickly discovered that the windshield wipers were not performing adequately, making visibility difficult. When I asked about having them replaced, I was informed that the service department had already deemed them acceptable. What has been most frustrating is the lack of communication, accountability, and customer support after the sale was finalized. As a long-time Hyundai customer who has purchased multiple Hyundai vehicles over the years, this has been the least satisfactory dealership experience I have encountered. While I am happy with the vehicle itself, the post-sale customer service has left a great deal to be desired. As a result, I plan to have my future maintenance and service work performed at a different Hyundai dealership.

I want to be fair and give credit where it's due. Our salesperson, Dino Hill, did a great job throughout the sales process and was professional and helpful. However, our experience after the sale has been incredibly disappointing. The vehicle was sold with Hennessy's advertised used car inspection and included a 3-Month/3,000-Mile warranty. Less than one month after purchase and well under 3,000 miles of driving, we took the vehicle to Subaru for service and were informed that the head gasket was leaking. The Subaru service department advised us that this was not a new issue and that the leak had likely been present for some time. This immediately raised concerns about the quality and thoroughness of Hennessy's used vehicle inspection process. How does a significant issue like a leaking head gasket go unnoticed during inspection? To make matters worse, the repair was denied by Hennessy's Hennessy Care warranty. We then reached out to dealership management for assistance. We were repeatedly told that they were doing everything they could to help resolve the situation. Unfortunately, more than a month later, the vehicle remains unrepaired and is not safely drivable. Kyle Shoemaker, the Finance Director, even provided his personal cell phone number for communication, but eventually stopped responding altogether. Matt Cowart appears to be the only member of management genuinely trying to help, but even he frequently fails to follow up when promised. As for Mr. Kevis, he always seems to be unavailable or in a meeting. Throughout this entire process, we have remained polite, patient, and respectful. Yet it feels like the moment the paperwork was signed and the money changed hands, we no longer mattered. We understand that we purchased a used vehicle, not a brand-new Cadillac. However, that does not mean customers should be left with a major mechanical failure shortly after purchase and then abandoned when they seek help. We trusted Hennessy's inspection process and believed the included warranty would provide protection in situations exactly like this, especially given how it was explained during the sales process. Instead, we are left with a $19,000 vehicle that cannot safely be driven and a dealership that has offered little more than excuses. The responses we've effectively received have amounted to, "You bought it, it's your problem now," or "You should have purchased an extended warranty." That is not customer service. That is not standing behind the vehicles you sell. If you are considering purchasing a used vehicle from Hennessy Cadillac, I strongly recommend just staying away from them. We did everything right. We trusted the dealership's inspection, purchased the vehicle in good faith, and reported the issue within the warranty period. Now we are out $19,000 cash and have a vehicle that cannot safely be driven and a repair amounting over $5,000 to repair. Shame on Hennessy Cadillac for how this situation has been handled.
