I had a great experience buying a "new to me" Kona with sales consultant Jacob Proulx supported by sales manager Clayton Andres. I was coming from out of town and Jacob immediately sent a comprehensive vid sales consultant Jacob Proulx supported by sales manager Clayton Andres. I was coming from out of town and Jacob immediately sent a comprehensive video of the car showing its positives and a couple of small dings on the paint so I didn't waste my time coming to see a car I really wasn't interested in. Jacob was friendly and helpful through the whole process without any pressure to make a deal. I have the power to choose where I spend my money and I look to spend it with companies that show real implementation of diversity, equity, and inclusion throughout all levels of their workforce. As a human being and a woman, I really appreciated walking into this dealership and seeing racial and gender diversity that truly reflects our multi-cultural society. More
The service department is, in my opinion, a bunch of fraudsters. As with many hyundais, my car was drinking oil at a ridiculous rate. I was told that Hyundai was warrantying these defective engines, so fraudsters. As with many hyundais, my car was drinking oil at a ridiculous rate. I was told that Hyundai was warrantying these defective engines, so went to the dealership (the only reason I would ever go to the service department of a dealership) to inquire. They told me to go through the process of oil consumtion testing, going back there every 1000km for 6000km, which I did. It proved it consumed too much oil. Then they said they had to do a "boroscope" to check the cylinder walls for scoring. They said it would cost $200, but that would be paid back if it failed the test because it would be covered under the warranty. It failed the test. Then they said that they'd take pictures (another $200, nonrefundable) of it for the report to Hyundai or I could prove I'd had oil changes done regularly. Given that it had been 5 or 6 years of ownership, going to multiple different garages for oil changes, I opted just for the photos. A couple days later I get the call that the warranty was declined. Apparently cylinder wall scoring is not a criterion they consider for this particular engine's warranty... it's only "bearing rod clearance" that is a consideration, and they could tell my car didn't have that problem because they'd hear it knocking... no diagnostic time needed for that; apparently it's quite obvious. It certainly wasn't noted in the diagnostic report I received. I told them then that I expected my $200 boroscope fee and the $200 photo fee refunded, as apparently that was completely irrelevant to the warranty claim, which was my one and only objective that I stated clearly at the outset. Nope.. no refunds. I posted this story to Facebook, and within a day or two the service manager contacted me wanting to review the case. Long story short, he told me from the photos it appeared my oil hadn't been changed regularly, and that was possibly the reason the walls were scored, so that's why Hyundai wasn't going to cover it. I then went around to the shops that I'd gone to for oil changes and gathered the record. It turns out I'd had my oil changed regularly at less than the 6000km interval they suggest... usually around 5400km. The funny thing about that was that EVERY ONE of the shops, when I asked for my service record asked "Oh, is this for a Hyundai or Kia?"... followed up by "you're the 3rd guy this week" or "you're the 2nd guy today". Clearly I'm not the only one getting the run-around here with these garbage engines! I sent in my oil change record for review, and about a week later I got the response that despite this regular maintenance being proven, Hyundai still wan't considering replacing the engine under warranty. Again, I requested that the irrelevant, useless boroscope of the cylinder walls and the associated photo fees be refunded, as obviously the result of them played no role in whether my engine was eligible for warranty. They should have known that. In fact, I wonder if they did... I wonder if they saw this as an opportunity to soak me for $400+. However, the service manager told me they had done nothing wrong, and that I would not be getting a refund. In any case, I won't be fooled again. Never will I go to this place again, and never will I purchase another Hyundai or Kia. Too bad really, because other than defective engines they're decent vehicles. If I'd been treated properly and not defrauded, I might have been back one day, but for the sake of $400 they've lost a customer permanently and unequivocally. More
I bought car in 2017. . at the time of buying they convinced me to buy extended warranty for 2500$ they said I will get 2000$ back if iam not using it. So it’s been 7 years . at the time of buying they convinced me to buy extended warranty for 2500$ they said I will get 2000$ back if iam not using it. So it’s been 7 years and I didn’t use it. So when I call the office regarding that they are not getting me to the finance department and always says they are but and will call back. I’ve been calling continuously for 3 days but I’ve been always told the same answer. While buying car they have all the time but not they are escaping. I feel very cheated. More

Darren was super patient with us as we could not decide what vehicle we wanted. At all times, he was professional, knowledgeable, friendly and totally respected our aims and conditions in buying a vehicle. In addition, we met with Mike Ister the Sales Manager on several occasions. He was a joy to talk to and did everything in his power to strike a deal on the Santa Fe we finally settled on. The teamwork of all the staff that we met was refreshing and much appreciated. Hats off to Darren, Mike and the other personnel that made our purchase so pleasant and actually fun. Ken & Wendy More
