the willingness of all staff make me feel like a customer instead of just a "sale" which makes it easier and more comfortable to discuss any concerns instead of just a "sale" which makes it easier and more comfortable to discuss any concerns More
Newly arrived from the UK and rather overwhelmed at number of dealerships along the Highway, we went to Harris Kia as we had seen a used car on their website that we wanted to test drive. Rachel came o number of dealerships along the Highway, we went to Harris Kia as we had seen a used car on their website that we wanted to test drive. Rachel came out and introduced herself as we were looking around and took us for a test drive. Having found out a bit about our needs etc she suggested that a new car may well fit our requirements better especially with 0% finance. She showed us a 2013 Sorento which we fell in love with but decided to go home and do a bit more research on Internet. We found it was available with beige leather ( one in showroom was black) and rang her the next day to see if she could get one in beige with a sunroof. She said she would find out and rang back very quickly to tell us they had that exact car in their compound!! RJ sorted out the finance, which was not easy being new to the country but he said right from the start that " he would make it work" for us. We have never come across such helpful staff in a car dealership, always very pushy in the UK which tends to make you want to walk away. Rachel was very friendly and extremely knowledgable and gave us a very detailed test drive showing off all the cars potential but was never trying to be pushy towards a sale. She introduced us to the service staff and Kolbi was very helpful in explaining the service plans etc. When we need a replacement for this lovely car, we will certainly return to Harris Kia. 10/10 to everyone we had contact with.

The service was fantastic; it was my son's first car and they made the financing and paperwork effortless and stress-free on our part. We came over from Vancouver because the price was better than anything they made the financing and paperwork effortless and stress-free on our part. We came over from Vancouver because the price was better than anything we could find on the coast and they even paid for our trip and picked us up at the floatplane. Overall, we really enjoyed the whole experience and are very happy with the price they gave us. It was totally worth the trip and I'll be back when it's time to buy my next car. Thanks again to all the staff! Lisa Ebenal More
We chose Harris Kia Nanaimo because after much research they had the vehicle we were interested in purchasing. I emailed the dealership and I received a prompt reply. They worked with mine and my husband they had the vehicle we were interested in purchasing. I emailed the dealership and I received a prompt reply. They worked with mine and my husbands work schedules and set up an appointment for us to come to Nanaimo and try the vehicle. We were in love with the vehicle immediately. From the moment we drove on the lot we were greeted by exceedingly friendly staff. Each and every person we crossed paths with were friendly (and genuine) and available to help us with everything right down to providing a glass of water. We found their pricing and vehicle information disclosure to be completely transparent and dealing with this dealership was a very new experience. All open and honest nothing to hide. Evaluation of our trade in was completely fair and fully explained. Nothing we could squabble over. If a fair and friendly deal is what you're looking for, go to Harris Kia in Nanaimo, BC. More
We had a great experience buying our new vehicle. We were looking at many SUVs and the kia sorento stood out. The staff were great and made the purchase of our new vehicle less stressful. looking at many SUVs and the kia sorento stood out.

I just wanted to say that this was my first time buying from a car lot. Always bought used from auctions or private sales. I was a little worried but when I saw the car I wanted online I called and spoke t from a car lot. Always bought used from auctions or private sales. I was a little worried but when I saw the car I wanted online I called and spoke to RJ. He was extremely helpful and reassuring. He showed me another car as well so I had a great choice between 2. I fell in love with both. I chose a 2005 Hyundai Sanata and am so happy! It is everything I wanted in a car. Had RJ not been as friendly and helpful I would not have bought from the dealership and would have ended up buying from an unknown source. And then Chris also was very helpful and friendly and showed me the wonders of my new car! When and if I buy again it will be here where I was treated fairly and very kindly. Thanks you Kia and RJ and Chris. I recommend this dealership to everyone who is looking for a good deal and help with a new or used car from friendly people who know their cars! More

A special thank you to Randy Heller who listened to our initial car request and immediately went into action and secured exactly the car we wanted in Vancouver. We have purchased many cars over the past 46 years and dealt with many Sales Consultants. Ryan Czinger is one of the few Sales Consultant who really cares and has a strong commitment to the customer.Highly recommended! I like his straightforwardness,car knowledge and listening to our needs and no pressure.Thank you Ryan. Thank you Jeremy for staying late to complete the paper work. You guys are awesome ! The whole process of purchasing the vehicle at this Kia dealership to the time of delivery took less than 24 hrs. That included the vehicle pick up in Vancouver, preparation,the installation of all our accessories and a full tank of gas. This action is a record for us! More
Ahmed sold my wife Kandace and I a new Rondo from the showroom floor. I liked him as a salesperson because he listened before he spoke and made us aware of the vehicle features, options and performance t showroom floor. I liked him as a salesperson because he listened before he spoke and made us aware of the vehicle features, options and performance that were important to us. He was courteous and attentive at all times without being pushy. He did make it clear all the while that his intent was to do business as we made it obvious that we were not wasting his time either. He was not afraid to ask for the sale when the time was right and the negotiation went quite smooth. All of the staff were extremely warm and friendly, seemingly happy to be part of the team. The business manager was the same. He was forewarned by me not to expect to make any money from us as financing was not on the table and do to the warranty coverage on the new Kia he would not be left with much of a chance. He was very respectful of this which capped off our overall experience as top quality. The parts and service staff seem to be on top of things as well, friendly and knowledgable. Footnote....I was in the car business for six years for Jim Pattison on the mainland and Joe Cunningham in Nanaimo both as a salesman and a service writer. My wife and I looked at Honda and Hyundai as well but were most impressed by the product and services we found at Harris Kia. We will recommend this store to anyone shopping for a car. Sincerely...Vince Foster. More

They answered every question I had and eased my stress level by acknowledging my concerns and working with me every step of the way. Rachel Roy delivered the best test drive and details on the vehicle that I have seen, and I have been looking for months for a new vehicle so there have been many test drives! Jeremy Allen was very helpful and efficient with the financing, helping me to make the payments work with what I needed. First new car purchased, wonderful experience.
