    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

Dimitri was the first person I spoke to over the phone. He patiently answered all my questions, helped schedule my test drive, and welcomed us warmly when we arrived. He set the tone for a very positive experience. Henry took us out on the test drive and was incredibly kind, calm, and reassuring. He explained everything clearly, made sure I felt comfortable, and never made me feel pressured. Both Dimitri and Henry were genuinely helpful and professional, and I'm really grateful for how they supported me through the process.

    ***Edited to add: 8 hours after pick up for the SECOND TIME AND THE SCREEN JUST STOPPED WORKING***…read more We dropped off my Genesis (still under warranty) bc the all wheel drive light came on. We did not receive a loaner. Communication was terrible, we would be told it would be ready the end of the week, then hear nothing, then be told the next day, then the next week, etc. Long story short, a part took a few weeks to arrive, then my car was "stuck on a broken lift but no one can come service the lift" and multiple other excuses we pulled out of the service department (there was little to no proactive communication). After almost 9 weeks we were able to make the 1+ hour drive to pick it up. The "promised" wash and wax (for the inconvenience) was not done...and ten minutes into the trip home the dash display went out. Turned around only to be told we would have to bring it back the next week. I know car dealerships are notoriously awful but this takes the cake. I would drive twice to distance to avoid dealing with these folks. It's a shame too - I love the vehicle, but the idea that Genesis (at this location at least) is a "luxury" brand is a joke.

They have blowing up my cell phone non stop and saying they can't give me a price unless I come in. I normally have the price pre-negotiated before coming in. I asked the sales person twice for the price and he refused to give me one. I told him that I didn't have time for games and left it like that. A few days later, he emailed and sent me a video. I asked him twice for a price and he still wouldn't give me one. He asked me what price I was thinking about. I gave him a super low price to mess with them before I was tired of their games. I would highly avoid this place as they need to learn some customer service and how to sell cars. I already picked up my Jeep out of state bc they played no games and got to point. If the GM is reading this, please retrain your employees on how deal business with customers. When a customer asks you for an OTD price, just give it to them. Stop dancing around and playing games and telling the customer has to come in for to get a price or refuse to give one. I wish I can give this place -20 stars. FYI, this sales man has blown up my cell phone at least 20 times. They seem desperate but have 0 customer service skills. If you're reading this, you know who I am referring to.

    I recently bought a vehicle from this location, and while my salesperson Kevin was actually pretty…read moredecent and seemed like he meant well, the experience took a sharp turn for the worse once the sale was done. Before finalizing the deal, I made it very clear that I was only moving forward if the vehicle came with a working charger. Well, I got the car -- but the charger doesn't work at all. That's bad enough, but what's worse is how everything was handled after. I tried reaching out multiple times -- called at least 4 or 5 times -- just to speak with a manager. No response. When I finally got through to Nubian M. Holmes, who is apparently the Sales Manager, I was completely shocked by how rude and unprofessional he was. Instead of trying to help or even just listen, he brushed off the situation, offered no solutions, and actually told me: "If you're not happy, just bring the car back. We'll be waiting." Who says that to a customer? It wasn't just dismissive -- it was disrespectful. No accountability, no effort to make it right. Just pure ego and attitude. I honestly couldn't believe it. Let me be clear: this isn't about the car. It's about how they treat people after they get your money. That's when the mask comes off. And if this is the kind of leadership they have running the place, it explains a lot. The sales team might seem helpful at first, but once the papers are signed, you're on your own. No one will care. No one will help. And if something goes wrong? Good luck even getting a call back. Trust your gut and shop somewhere else. I wish I had.

    I recently purchased a used 2019 Jeep Wrangler. The search has been a journey for the last 3 years…read more I had test drove Wrangler Rubicons, and Saharas on a few beach trips and loved them! So, on my 49th Birthday I decided that on my 50th it would be the year I made my dream come true. The conversation of my inquiry was originally with the Marietta Gravity Motors. But, the vehicles I wanted to test drive were located at two completely different locations in Georgia. Mind you, not in ATLANTA, where I reside. So, either way I had to drive almost 27 miles to three locations. Long story short.... @ Gravity Auto Duluth... was the meant to be. Z. had told me that those two other jeeps could have been moved to my location of choice to test drive. Via another Gravity MOTORS/Auto. So, the original car salesperson could have made my shopping experience more flawless.. BUT, he did not & lost my sale. But, it was meant to be for me to walk in to Gravity Auto Duluth and meet Z., Sam, and ALEK! These guys are AMAZING! Skip all the other places and check out this great group of people! My upgraded ( $12,000 ) with Red Leather interior, 2019 Jeep Wrangler make me so happy! Thank you Guys! You helped make my 50th dream car come true!

    BUYERS BEWARE YOU DO…read moreNOT WANT TO BUY A VEHICLE FROM ANY GRAVITY AUTO!!!! Sale was deceptive bought 2016 Lexus GX460 on 09/17/2024. I Live 2.5 hours away.. They failed in every aspect of sales, service and integrity!! List of lies Said the car went through a multi-point inspection and passed everything. Spoiler Over $12,000 dollars of repairs needed Said the tire pressure light was on because it needed new tires and offered me to come back to get them when I came back to get the seat handle repaired. Was told he was throwing in a dealer warranty for major systems as well as a key replacement warranty. Actuality $1,000 added to the online price but didn't mention until after paperwork and approval. I came back and got the new tires. Light was still on. Was told it should go off on it's own after driving it some. Got the seat handle replaced and the technician put a hole in the middle seat. They tried to say it was already there, but you could tell it was a fresh puncture. Then they tried to blame it on a car set. After I showed them that the car seats dimensions and design didn't align with the puncture, they agreed to fix it for me whenever I came back to Duluth. DOWC (Dealer Owned Warranty Company) warranty: going back through my paperwork I see where I was charged over $2500 dollars for the warranty and $1500 dollars for key replacement. (I don't know any key that costs $1500 dollars!) I take accountability for not going over the paperwork again but that leads me to another thing. They take all day and forever to do nothing on purpose so that you will pay less attention to detail because you are ready to go. Multi-point inspection could not have been done it would not have passed. After a year and 2 months driving less than 10,000 miles the only thing that passed inspection were the tires. Over $12,000 dollars of repairs needed 1 year and 2 months after owning the car: Check engine light comes on, I take it to the Lexus dealership, and they tell me I need a transmission rebuild. They notify the warranty company to submit a claim for repairs. It is immediately declined because, " I am within 50 miles of the Gravity auto Roswell dealerships service center" they will pay $125 towards having it towed. I get to the dealership, they clear the check engine light and tell me I must wait until it comes back on. Car is driving fine but the RPM's stays high a little longer than usual to change to the next gear. It comes back on. I drop it off to the Roswell Gravity auto service center. Thursday 3/12/26. Tuesday 3/17/26 I get a text and a phone call saying they did a multi-point inspection and gave the results. Warranty company only approved front wheel bearing replacement and that I would have to pay $514.44 for a transmission flush to see if that would repair the issue before they would pay for a transmission rebuild and to approve or decline. I approved of course what other choice did I have? The next day they call me and said they were done and that the flush repaired the issue. I scheduled to pick up that Saturday since I lived 2.5 hours away. They close early on Saturdays, so I paid in advance and he left my key at the dealership along with my paperwork. First 17 minutes of driving the car seemed ok. Then it started making a clicking noise that sounds like you putting a card in your bicycle tire while it's spinning. When we got on the highway, after acceleration when you let off of the gas the car would stall as if you were pressing the brake. Had none of these issues before taking it to them.
