Mr. Kahn, I typically don't respond with particulars on public forums but in this case I feel the need to recap the conversation that we had when I called you just now. There is nothing that we did to break your door handle while your vehicle was here as we simply performed a recall on the seat on your 10-year old vehicle, and used your door handle as it was intended to be used. Like I said, I would be happy to help you by having a look at your door handle for you, and even help with a discount on parts & labour to get your door handle repaired. That said, I would appreciate it if you would refrain from abusive language and yelling while communicating with our customer care team and service advisors. I understand you may feel frustrated but this kind of behavior does not help the situation. Please feel free to reach out to me directly if you have any further questions. Best regards, Ted Boyd General Manager 250-751-1168

Had our 2022 EV6 in for a recall on the ICCU a couple months ago. While it was in for the recall they tried several times to upsell unnecessary work to me; and had me wait in the waiting room for four More

Good afternoon, I am sorry that your experience with Harris Kia was less than perfect. Contrary to popular belief, manufacturer's do recommend servicing an electric vehicle. Although I cannot look at a specific work order (because I do not know who you are), based on what you said in your comments, I am unclear why you are so unhappy with your experience. Is it because we offered you a wheel alignment after we checked it and found it required one? This is our obligation as a Kia dealership and a licensed repair facility. If there is more to your experience that made you give us a 1 score on this platform, please contact me directly and I would be happy to look into it for you. Again, I would reach out to you but your contact information is hidden. Sincerely, Ted Boyd General Manager 250-751-1168 ted.boyd@harrisauto.ca

The salesperson we dealt with (Jeff) was excellent to work with. The sales manager not as much. He tried to sway us off of the hybrid model. He also would not provide us with a trade-in value. His demean More
