Went in today to look at a vehicle lease option, walked around on my own for a bit before a salesperson caught up to me. During this time I found the car I was looking for in a color I liked. I walked away to see if I could find any others, which is where the salesman found me. When I told him what I was looking for, he told me they only had one left and someone had an appointment to see it, but if I acted quickly, I could buy it first. He then took me to another vehicle that wasn't the one I had already seen on the lot. Lie #1 - they had more than one because I had now seen two. I asked what the all electric range was and he told me the electric and gas combined distance (Lie #2). Then he told me it qualified for an annual Federal rebate of $7000, which he restated later as " The government will pay you $7000 a year every year that you owned the vehicle." Which was Lie #3. They have the vehicle I want in a color I like and the price didn't seem that bad, but he lied so much in the first few minutes of talking to me that I would never trust him or Tempe Kis with my business. read more

Don't waste your time. I responded to an online ad for a Kia Rio 5 door at 11,998. My online quote came back at 16,631+ taxes & fees. The only good thing is I didn't waste my time driving to Tempe. Kia has horrible dealerships in the Valley. Mark & Horne are just as bad. They do business like it's the 1980's! read more

Bought my first car here and it was a fast and easy experience! Getting it serviced here, has been another experience. After scheduling and bringing my car in for an oil change, I was very unhappy with this experience. Not only did I wait 3 1/2 hours for an oil change, they were taking walk ins and servicing their cars before anyone was even coming out to give me and update about my service process. When finally asking about the status of my car, the red headed girl "couldn't find my paperwork" and "wasn't sure where my car was" seriously? I sat down and waited another 45 minutes before I finally found the mechanic, Jairo to ask about my car. His answer was "oh, we thought you left. Let me see if it's done" So just because you thought I left my car to be serviced, they pushed back my 10 o'clock appointment. The professionalism was shocking. On top of that, while waiting in the lobby for 3 1/2 hours in the middle of the pandemic, I couldn't help but notice the lack of safety measures. Other guest in the lobby did NOT have their masks on and and mechanics were actually coming in to talk to customers and removing their masks. THERE IS A PANDEMIC SAFERY OF EVERY CUSTOMER SHOULD COME FIRST. read more

Wish I could give this place a 1 star. Tried to do everything online before I got here a wasted 5 hours trying to get stuff done. Save yourself the hassle and find a decent dealership to deal with not these crooks. read more

If you want to buy a car, please go see Will Parker! He was great! I went in a couple times and I told him what I wanted and my price range! He made it happen! Thank you Will for everything! read more

Based on Tempe Kia's amazing reviews on Google, I selected this dealership over another Kia dealer that was much closer. Very glad that I made that choice to service our Kia Sportage. From the moment I pulled into their service lane, it was SUPER OBVIOUS why they had earned these great reviews. Everyone was very friendly, accommodating and helpful from the Service Writers to the Receptionist. The facility was extremely clean with lots of areas for customers to relax and/or work while they were waiting. Loved the Keurig machine and the Internet was also super quick and easy to connect to. Thanks for a terrific experience, Tempe Kia. I will be back!!! read more

If your vehicle needs service talk to Jairo!! He is the nicest man. My service was fast and he made it painless. Another place messed up and he fixed the problem. Thank you so much! Merry Christmas read more

I will forever remember that during difficult times for the consumer, Kia decided to charge $7000 over asking price. Please beware they are doing this. I will never buy a Kia, even when things get tough I will remember the fact they are trying to take advantage of the consumer during difficult times read more

Mikaela made the car buying process so enjoyable! Not only is she knowledgeable about their inventory and cars in general, she's also such a sweetheart which is so refreshing during the car buying process. I never once felt pressured or hassled to get into a vehicle. From the moment I walked on the lot to when I drove off, it was the best car buying experience! read more

Great prices, fast service and the best employees! Thank you to Susie for taking her time with us to get us into a new amazing SUV. We highly recommend Tempe Kia. And Susie! read more

Just want to say this. I sat in my car while getting the courage to go in and have some numbers ran to see if I qualified for a new car. Once ready, I exited my car and went towards the many sales associates. A young 21 year old named Bill approached me and I became at ease. I explained why I was there and the special I had seen on Instagram and Facebook. I was informed that there was only a small selection and they didn't have that car to offer for the $15,827 price but that I would get one close to that amount. Bill handled himself very well and got me close to what I was looking for and in the end it didn't matter I needed a car. So cudos on your sale Bill and final paperwork with I believe William whom has a new grandson. Thanks for the new car and assisting me through the painless process. Wish I had gotten the cheaper deal but I will live. read more

I thought since they emailed me sincerely I would give them another review. I was promised a no hassle experience without a load of stupid add-ons tacked onto the car. I got hassle and I got add-ons. I ended up walking out after bickering with two different dealers with in the lot for over two hours. They also tried the financing voodoo that car dealers like to do to add extra costs to the overall price of the vehicle. Their dealership looks like it's from the 70s, and they act like Car Dealer from the 70s. Not trustworthy. Pro tip: if you're going to offer savings to people online, it's best to honor those savings. This dealership does not. read more

Tempe Kia - Tire spikes. It's like the hotel California: you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave. - Auto Repair Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

We went down there to buy a newer car. We found this Soul that we liked and told them we would like to buy it. They said this one hasn't been through the shop yet, but we will let you put a deposit down and we will push it through inspection for you. Cool. Put our deposit down, we were getting text updates on our car up until yesterday. Today, 5 days after our deposit was put down, they called us to tell us to say they double sold the car and it was going to the other people (who had went the day after us). They said because it wasn't in the system when we put a deposit down, everything was word of mouth. It's unacceptable that they were able to take my money but sell my car to someone else. Don't recommend, especially their manager John who was unable to provide anything for the inconvenience. Just interested in selling us another car. Sad- I was prepared to pay cash read more

Very rude receptionist. And they fake understanding english. Horrible to do business with. STAY AWAY!!!

Horrible experience. I got a 60k maintenance for $850 and they stated i should get my brakes replaced for $500 and did an alignment. Some how it came out to $2000 dollars.. My car now drives totally different and i dont enjoy driving it anymore. The alignment is still messed up and now there's a rattling noise on my front dashboard. They refuse to acknowledge it was caused by them or any sound at all. Huge mistake shady people i dont know how people that work in dealerships live with themselves and their shady jobs. read more

Stopped by today with the Father in Law to try and look at a Telluride. Went to their website and it said they had 10 in stock so we decided to stop by. We went right when they opened and we're greeted by probably the most unprofessional sales folks possible. They said they had just sold all their tellurides "yesterday" and I mentioned that their site said they had 10 in stock so I was like did you sell them all yesterday!? He proceeded to tell me that the site shows also those that haven't reached their dealership. That was it and they just had us leave. They mentioned that the only way we could see one was if we ordered one from them...ummm I'm not going to order one before seeing it. Lastly, as we were pulling out of the dealership a Telluride drove in and went to the sales side of the dealership...I don't like being lied to and if they knew or had one to show us they should have told us if we could wait a bit to see one. I would not recommend buying a car from this dealership, and to purchase a Kia elsewhere. Dealerships should be customer oriented and this place was not. read more

Horrible customer service and extremely deceptive sales techniques. Filled out a credit app online. My sales rep said I qualify for 84 month financing which would put my payment where I wanted it to be. After making the trip to the dealership they inform me that they can't do 84 months and also that my interest rate would be significantly higher. The whole experience was awful! I will NEVER shop at this dealership. Avoid at all cost. read more

This review is for the manager {Brandon Bender} not sure if that is his last name or not since he was extremely rude and unprofessional he has the customer service skills of a 5 year old chimp. I've been getting the run around every time I call about my refund for a car that I was going to buy there and didn't. Every call is long holds and no answers or voice mails. So after a month or so I decided to speak to manager thinking that would be a good idea. Little did I know that he was worse than just getting ignored like all the other times that I called. He hung up the phone on me and when I tried calling back 3 times I kept getting hanged up on. Must be caller ID because I called back with number blocked and got an answer. They are quite the gang. My Response to your response is, that the issue is not the refund which should have been processed by now since in 3 days on 2-4-18 it will have been 30 days. The issue is that I was treated extremely rude by a manager at Kia of Tempe not to mention I've gotten the run around every singe time I have called. Everything from 30 minute wait times and no answer or transferred to voice mails. We have a lease with Kia of Scottsdale and our experience there has been awesome. read more

Car sales man was "andie" completely pushy and rude. Andie wanted to sell a v6 when I stated I wanted a v8. Having someone judge you and tell you the car is to expensive before they find out what you can afford.Having someone not understanding your time is valuable. read more

UPDATE: Got rid of the vehicle! Fortunately for me, I will not be a repeat customer. Don't be fooled by the fake reviews-- they pressure you to review at the dealer and most people aren't bothered by updating it. It's really too bad-- the vehicle, other than being lied to about wasn't bad-- the management and aftercare team is abhorrent. Lied to throughout process. Asked to come in for follow up meeting with Chuck Flair and Frankie. Chuck was unprepared and could not have cared less-- he was more concerned with his outlook and sipping his latte while not even turning music down. Katelyn (GM) has assured me that low oil from the factory is normal and they are not responsible for topping that off. Most unprofessional car buying experience I've ever had followed up by complete disrespect and lack of care. read more

Oliver messier helped me with the Nero and Jeep Cherokee, very good info I received. Thankyou Oliver read more

Let me start off by saying that Paula in the service department is amazing and has great customer service. But, the management and the technicians are the complete opposite. I have a 2021 Kia K5, I love my car but it's has some issues with the front passenger seat not locking into place when they went to fix it, they didn't reconnect the airbag. They told me 5 mins from picking the car up from them that they had to keep it overnight. Then my sunroof seals started turning in on themselves and I had to get that fixed. The "manager" Scott looked at my car and ordered the part for it. When the part came in Paula advised me that the wrong part was ordered. So, I had to wait another 3 weeks for the part to come in. Finally! The part was here for them to fix it. I drop it off and get a call on 04/29/2022 saying that the pressure from them fixing the sunroof cracked my windshield. They ended up fixing the windshield so no issue. When I go to pick up my car, there are two dents in the car. I ask to speak to the manager and he tells Paula the service advisor to handle it and won't speak to me. The general manager left at 5 on a Friday at the end of the month. Now I have to take my car back to the dealership for the 3rd time in a month and a half for them to look at the dents and have a body shop come look at it. They obviously do not care about your vehicle or correcting their issues. Management is a joke.... read more

DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS DEALERSHIP!!! Avoid them at all costs. They told me one price then tried to switch it up when I got to finance. The used car manager was literally screaming at me telling me that I was calling him a liar. It was the most unprofessional experience I've ever had. There are a lot of dealerships out there I would literally go to any other one but this one if I were you read more

Edited 3 mos after purchase. The sales lady Staci was awesome, and I originally gave a 5 star review. I am editing to one star, because I am not happy with an add on KARR BT security System. Its useless. I did agree to pay 1,000 for it. But now have remorse. So I asked if I could have it removed, and not get a refund, but maybe purchase something else useful. They declined. The contract does not state that I paid for this, only says "add ons" =1,000. So I have nothing. Yes my fault, but the reason for one star, they offered to help by remotely disarming the system, and no exchange or refund, the dealer keeps the money. Wow. read more

Thanks to David Bright, I left with much more than I expected, and it was so quick and easy! I definitely recommend David at Tempe Kia. One of the best car buying experiences I've had. My credit isn't great. I got a great price and a great monthly payment for under 4 years! The car is pretty awesome too. Thank you! read more

Tempe Kia is god fkn awful! It would be easier to shoot yourself in the face then to deal with their service department! Zero percent solution orientated. Terrible communication. Everyone behind their counter sucks and takes zero responsibility for the lack of everything!!! 0 stars you Kia from the bottom of my heart! read more

If I could give my experience with Tempe Kia zero stars I would. Back in June I purchased a 2024 Kia Seltos through Rodney. When I took my car home on the first day I noticed there was a scuff on the dashboard. I brought it to Rodney's attention and he said his team would fix it but to make sure I gave him a perfect rating on his survey. I felt like him and his team harassed me to give them a perfect survey score before they fixed my car and I should have known better. To fix the scuff, they had some guy buff out the entire thing and now it looks dull and weird. They completely took the shine off the entire part and the part has been peeling. Scott the service director told me that they would order me a new part and that was 4 months ago... fast forward to now, after trying to get a hold of them for months, I found out they did not order the part. They have been lying to me and probably hoping after some time goes by I will forget about it and leave them alone. Please do yourself a favor and go elsewhere to buy a car. Rodney and Scott are nothing but a bunch of liars and I will never do business here with them again. And I hope you don't either. read more

I bought a Kia Rio last weekend & had the pleasure of working with Susie who was amazing! She was kind, knowledgeable, honest & genuinely cared about making sure I had the best experience. All the employees seemed to be in good spirits which is also a good sign. I'd definitely recommend this dealership & especially Susie. read more

Note: this review is subject to change. Brought my Kia in for A/C service. Car is at 50k - under warranty. I was quoted 900.00 to fix the A/C and replace the battery. The second option was a 600.00 fix if they ordered a part. They said the A/C was not under warranty because a rock hit it. Urmn. Ok. Sure. And of course, the A/C breaks now. The day before a 120 degree day in the Valley. Beautiful timing. I just got this vehicle a year or two ago. I almost feel like I bought a lemon at this point. I am off to get second opinions. If I am quoted similar prices for parts and labor, I will edit this. But, my mother had a bunch of issues with her Kia about four years ago. A bunch of issues with the dealership and repairs and expenses. She was so frustrated, she swore Kia off. Said she would never buy another. Was disappointed that I would even consider getting a Kia after what she had been through. And now. Well. Here I am. Experiencing first hand - the delights of being a Kia owner. read more

HORRIBLE experience! My dad and I went car shopping at many of the dealers in this autoplex, this one by far the WORST! We walked off the lot almost immediately! The native american sales guy(didn't even catch his name) was very rude as we came to look at the kia sorento. My dad was trying to get a ball park number on what they cost and guy refused to tell us a price. Said we HAD to come inside to run credit yada yada. My dad told him, " I am just asking for a price. The price of the car has nothing to do with my credit etc." The rude sales guy said "well I can't help you if you don't give me your information" SO my dad replied with "Well I guess we should leave then" When we originally walked up, I was asking questions about the sorento as I was trying to narrow my options down and looking at multiple small SUV's. The guy was not very helpful and did not go get the keys to unlock the cars so I could look inside. They were all locked! He was rude and lazy!!! How do you do business like this?!? I mentioned this to my boss and he said he had the same experience with this dealership years ago. I guess things do not change here! read more

We are not Kia clients, but just bought a preowned VW from them. Nick helped us all the way through and was patient enough to let us test drive not once, but twice. Kept us informed via texts about our options while we shop around the valley trying to decide for the best option for a car. The car was detailed and filled with gas before we drove it off from the lot. I'd definitely go back next time we need another pre-owned car for our kids. Thanks Nick! Was a pleasure working with you. read more

We will be back for our future car buying read more

Paid almost $3,000 to have my car fixed from top to bottom to take care of all the issues after having a issue with it starting reliably and dying occasionally at idle. Less than a month later, the exact same thing happened and it threw a check engine error code that is linked to a problem with the starter. Just remember, every car dealership is full of lying con artists looking to take you for a ride, despite what anyone tells you. read more

Went in and nice young man took me to the Service Dept. Two of us waiting. Salesman came up and asked if we could be helped. He went around into the Service Area, came back and said they were on the phone and in a meeting and will be out shortly. Waited for another 5 mins and then left. I was surprised that they did not pause their conversation just to acknowledge my presence and say 'be out shortly'. Instead, the occasional glance up to see us standing. Ever heard of customer service; Or at least common courtesy. read more

Was looking at Telluride SX Prestige and after informing me there was a 15%-20% markup, told me this little gem. "You can't test drive it because we don't want to put any mileage on it. Yes, you heard me right. At this crappy dealership, they are telling customers they can't test drive a car before they buy it. Seriously, what terrible customer service policies. Now I completely understand the low ratings of this dealership. Will bubble this up to corporate Kia for sure. Will never buy a car at this dealership. read more

Great service team. Easy to do business with. Did the job on time and for less cost than quoted. Recommended a warranty fix while the car was in the shop, and took care of it promptly. Thanks Crystal for great service. read more

Update: Raised from 2 to 3 stars. Tempe Kia worked with me to resolve one of my issues with my experience. OK experience buying a car here... they use some deceptive tactics to sell you some additional warranty you don't actually need, no pressure lookin at cars, that was nice, but overall, I wouldn't recommend them to someone else. read more

I had a absolutely great experience here at Tempe Kia. This was the 3rd dealership I checked out and was ready to give up on my search. It's my first car purchase and I felt completely overwhelmed with the process but Rory and the rest of the staff helped make it as easy as possible! I got a really good deal on the Kia Sorento which is the car I had my eye on for over a year. I appreciate all their advice and help and will be sure to recommend this place to everyone I know! read more
