It was about the price it was the customer treatment and no feedback.
Our car was towed in Tuesday because all lights on the dashboard were on and it would not drive. On Wednesday we were told it would be 3 to 4 days and that it would be covered by warranty. I asked them to double check because the issue with my car 2 months ago was not covered and they said they would double check the system. They confirmed that it would be covered under warranty.

On Thursday I got notification that my car had been unlocked, so I called again for an update. The person said that the car was currently in progress and the technician on my car would call me with an update. I did not receive a call so I called the Service Center again on Saturday. The gentleman today said that my had NOT been checked yet and that based on the queue it wouldn't even be looked at until Tuesday, a week after it was towed in. When we asked why we were told that progress had started he said he didn't know but that there be no update until probably Tuesday. We did express the hardship that this causing our family and that the changing timeline is causing hardships for us. There seems to be no recourse for the disorganization and what seems like outright dishonesty. We were told a manger would call, but we received an email from the assistant manager the next day. Moving forward I kept all communication in writing due to the earlier issues.
On top of the time frame, it took almost a month to get my vehicle back, there were surprise fees that were not communicated to me until the pick up of the car totaling over $500. When I expressed my confusion I was told either pay $500 or don’t get my car back. This was on top of a $3000 radiator issue that was not covered under warranty. In a little under 2 months there was over $9,000 in needed repairs. The customer service was by far the worst I have ever experienced and will never purchase another Kia. If I had been told of the additional amount up front I would have had my car towed to somewhere else that was quicker and cost less money.
In contrast I’ve had my 2015 Honda Pilot for 11 years and had minimal repairs that my husband could fix. Before that I had a used a used Hyundai Elantra for over 7 years with no need to go to the mechanic. My 2023 Kia Sorrento has needed more work than any vehicle I have ever owned, it’s neither safe nor reliable.
Their service department program is very unorganized. When you drop your car off, it could be at least four days before they even take a look at your car. I will not use their service department again.
They were very professional and knowledgeable I felt like family they were very courteous and kind
Ashley and the dealership are awesome. Great place to wait and work, they have coffee/water/snacks!

El personal me dio muy buen trato muy eficientes y profecionales me hacian saver sobre el progreso del servicio de m8 automovil
Worst experience I’ve had in a dealership. Super rude and was bullied into fixing and paying for a new car I bought that had a lil leakage
Great customer service!!! Service department is way more honest than Kia—North!!! Thank you for your service
I had one of the worst dealership service experiences I've ever encountered at Kia South.
I brought my vehicle in for a diagnosis and was quoted over $8,000 in repairs. Before agreeing to such a major expense, I asked for more detailed information about the diagnosis and the testing that had been performed. The service department was unable to provide clear technical details, and when I spoke directly with the dealership's service department director, Cody Kemmerling, he admitted he did not know the technical specifics behind the diagnosis.

I brought my vehicle in for a diagnosis and was quoted over $8,000 in repairs. Before agreeing to such a major expense, I asked for more detailed information about the diagnosis and the testing that had been performed. The service department was unable to provide clear technical details, and when I spoke directly with the dealership's service department director, Cody Kemmerling, he admitted he did not know the technical specifics behind the diagnosis. I was also told that certain diagnostic tests commonly associated with the issue were not performed because they were considered unnecessary.
Wanting a second opinion before spending thousands of dollars, I consulted Kia North and Firestone as well. After reviewing the symptoms and the diagnosis provided by Kia South, both locations disagreed with the conclusion. Firestone specifically stated that the data Kia South presented as evidence for the repair was actually consistent with normal vehicle operation. Given the lack of any further test data.
The service experience became even more frustrating when I returned to pick up my vehicle after declining the repairs. The dealership could not locate my keys, and I ended up waiting more than 30 minutes because the employee who had my keys had left for HEB with my keys still in his pocket. Once the keys were finally returned, no apology was offered for the delay or inconvenience.
And to make matters worse, the director of service Cody Kemmerling personally brought my vehicle around but did not acknowledge the situation, apologize for the lost keys, or speak to me at all. He simply parked my car, got into his truck, and left.
Between the questionable diagnosis, the lack of supporting information, the lost keys, and the overall lack of professionalism from start to finish, I left with very little confidence in this dealership's service department. I would strongly recommend getting a second opinion before authorizing any major repairs here.
Amazing service, Zane May , my service advisor was very knowledgeable. I will keep bringing my vehicle for my regular maintenance services. Thank you very much.
Sal was great! He was very helpful and I could tell he had a lot of experience. Fast service.
Steve was great, very helpful with getting my car ready fast. Also very nice to get me a ride to and from the service center
The staff were great. Ashley was kind and answered my questions. The prices are predatory; geared toward uninformed customers who trust their dealerships by default.
Steve was very helpful, everyone is very pleasant. Service is great,the are very knowledgeable about my vehicle
Mentioned that the warning message was not reset on the previous visit. They kept my car for 7 days, $1500 later, and the warning message IS STILL POPPING UP! Always something with their Service Department.
I had a wonderful interaction with my agent. He was thoughtful and helpful. I would recommend them highly!
The service dept is friendly, attentive, well organized, and thorough. The prices are fair. Service time is always less than estimated.
The customer service was not super helpful. Could be a little more respectful and explaining things more
I am currently awaiting next steps from my service technician about a scratch on my door that occurred while my car was being serviced. The entire ordeal has yet to be handled with any care as the ipad photos taken upon arrival were passed around, and the “paint guy” was “on lunch” when I picked my car up. I have maintained contact with Ana every business day since then, and have not received any sort of condolence or consideration about what’s happened.

I am currently awaiting next steps from my service technician about a scratch on my door that occurred while my car was being serviced. The entire ordeal has yet to be handled with any care as the ipad photos taken upon arrival were passed around, and the “paint guy” was “on lunch” when I picked my car up. I have maintained contact with Ana every business day since then, and have not received any sort of condolence or consideration about what’s happened. As a returning customer of over 6 years I am not blaming Ana but the service department in general has really let me down. I don’t understand how this wasn’t being handled with urgency, and no one has contacted me directly without me starting a conversation since that day. Would love to close the loop on this and trust Kia South Austin again - please make this right.
No issues at all in getting the necessary work done. Super appreciative of the loaner car, which allowed me to not miss any work.
The service department is very efficient, and the personal too servicial, and they know very good they work
Service was better this time; awful last time; never got survey sent to me. Awful. Called and called but survey was never sent because service department knew the service was awful. Person with worked with this time was very good, efficient, and professional. Salvadore I believe.
We bought a new KIA Telluride a couple of years ago. I take the car back to the dealership for some of the maintenance. The other day when I dropped it off, I was worried because they seemed so busy. That did a whole bunch of work on my car and got done in one day. When I came to pick it up, they were very helpful and efficient. I got out of there very fast.
Super firendly staff I will certainly be bringing my car back here in the future.
Kia South is a great dealership and I trust them with all my car needs and will continue to do buisness with them in the future.
No parking anywhere. There service associate didn't communicate. I called Zane 6 times 1 call back
Everyone is very professional, including the salesmen who helped us buy the car to the service department.
Kia of south Austin is the best in taking care of my Kia Soul LX. My Service Advisor, Zane May did an excellent job communicating with me and managing the routine servicing (oil change, spark plugs, wheel alignment).
Friendly staff who truly care and the service team was kind. The team was professional. I highly recommend.
Every time I visit this location for service to my Kia, they’re knowledgeable & friendly!
I recently visited Kia for an oil change service and was very satisfied with the overall experience. The service team ( Zane May ) demonstrated a high level of professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail throughout the process. The service was completed within the expected timeframe, and all information regarding the maintenance performed was communicated clearly and transparently. The facility was clean and well maintained, reflecting Kia’s commitment to quality and customer service. I would confidently recommend this service department and will return for future maintenance needs. Thanks you Zane May!
I am using this dealership for many years. The service is good and takes care of my car.
Anthony in service got me in and out quickly and was very helpful! I appreciate the great customer service I received from all of the service and sales staff.
HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. I feel like if you are buying a used vehicle at Kia of South austin you are treated like a second class citizen after you sign the papers. The salesperson quoted me the wrong price and wrong interest rate and I didn't know until 4 hours later when I was about to sign papers. I will accept the responsibility for continuing the process but now that it's official, I believe this was a horrible mistake.

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. I feel like if you are buying a used vehicle at Kia of South austin you are treated like a second class citizen after you sign the papers. The salesperson quoted me the wrong price and wrong interest rate and I didn't know until 4 hours later when I was about to sign papers. I will accept the responsibility for continuing the process but now that it's official, I believe this was a horrible mistake. I was also told that I didn't need to continue having full coverage and I could just change to liability later and it will be ok (said before signing)but later told by someone else that the finance company would put very expensive insurance on the car and bill me(said after signing). I test drove the car and it seemed fine, after the paperwork I get in for the first official drive and it wouldn't start. They were nice enough to put another battery in though. The car needed a fuel tank door, they ordered one and put it on a couple days later so I go to pick it up and the fuel door wasn't painted and one of the screws that holds it on was stripped so it is loose. Not even a week later the check engine light came on so I took it to the service department. I had to take off work, losing a half a day of overtime when I was told that I'd just come in, drop it off and get a loaner. Once I was there I sat for about 5 hours while they figured out if I would actually get a loaner. I am very appreciative that I did because it took 2 weeks for me to get my car back. While I was there, I was basically invisible. I had installed an amp in my car and they said that it had triggered a sensor to go off somehow, so it was my fault and ended up having to pay 250.00 to get my car back when I was assured by the salesman that my warranty would cover it but since it was MY fault, I had to pay. Before I took it in, I had a diagnostic ran and the car had 3 codes on it, and said it wasn't emission ready. I feel like they just cleared the codes before they sold it. Also the TPMS light came on the dash and I asked them to fix that but it wasn't done when I got it back. I don't get any tire pressure reading at all. I just got it back today so I'll drive it long enough to see if the check engine light just comes back on because the work order doesn't show any work done to fix the other 2 codes it showed and they cleared them now. I don't see how the tire pressure light coming on after I drive it for a while could be my fault though. I'm not rich, I worked and saved and put down 4500 looking for something reliable to get to church and work but I'm left feeling like I made a huge mistake. If I could do it again, I would run. I hope this helps someone. Wish me luck.
great service friendly people patient with all my questions and knowledge about our car . great
Excellent customer service. I would recommend visiting this dealership. The service they provided for my car was excellent, and they answered my questions clearly.
I bought (2) 2025 vehicles recently. A Telluride ans Sportage. Anthony was our salesman. Great guy super nice. So was F&I. Recently my Telluride got a nail in the tire. I called Roadside assistance and they were very responsive and nice as well. I was able to drive the vehicle to the dealership the next day. I was met quickly and she was very nice as well. Had me checked in quickly and got me an Uber ride to work and back. The check out was easy. A very pleasant experience. I'm glad I chose Kia and this dealership. ...

The Kia dealership was efficient, friendly, and professional; they inspected my car and explained everything clearly.
My experience with Kia of South Austin has been extremely disappointing and stressful. I put down a $5,000 deposit in good faith, and after that, the communication from the dealership became unclear, inconsistent, and unprofessional. I was never given straight answers, never updated properly, and was left completely in the dark about the status and location of the vehicle. To this day, I still don’t know where my car is, whether it was sold to someone else, or why my money was held without transparency.

I went in for warranty on a dead battery and to look into low coolant levels.
The warranty on the battery was denied because I had installed a dashcam in the vehicle. The dashcam had nothing to do with the battery going bad prematurely. It was installed right after purchasing the car almost 3 years ago, and I have done the same with every car I have bought in the last 10-15 years and on my relatives' cars without any issues.

They just decided to use it as an excuse for denying the warranty. They also could not agree among themselves what the problem was. The person at the front told me the battery was good even though they had to jump start the car to give it back to me. Another person on the phone said they just did not know what the problem was and wanted over $500 to look into it further (I did not go that route as buying a battery was a lot cheaper than that).
Regarding the coolant issues, I was told it was just time to do a coolant flush. I thought it was too early for that since the car was not even 3 years old and it only had 33k miles on it. They insisted that was the problem and charged me almost 200 dollars for it. Once I got home, the coolant level was low again. By they way, according to the manual, the first coolant flush was not due until 120k miles or 10 years. I am suspecting this car is starting to show head gasket issues as there is no visible leak, but coolant keeps getting low.
I called before I brought my vehicle in for a tire repair, and talk to the service department. They told me there would be no charge if it was just a patch. I also confirm this with a second worker before I brought it in. They told me nothing was wrong with my vehicle. Then I had to bring it back the next week because it kept losing air. Then they found the nail and insisted after it was $40 and I could take it or leave it. Did not care that I was told it would have been covered. Between ...

Between the two visits I had waited there over 6 hours when I could have just taken this somewhere else to get it fixed for cheaper and not have to wait that long. The whole reason I brought it there was because they told me it would be covered. Very poor service
It was great they were efficient, but need to be updated on warranty and what is available.
I went in to get an oil change after receiving a coupon from Kia in my email for a $19.99 oil change. Made an appointment told Ana the service asociado when I got there I had a coupon she said she saw it on the iPad, said the way was between 1-2 hours, which is ridiculous for an oil change.

I waited got the text about service, which you should really change if the customer is waiting the service advisor should come talk to the customer face to face thats just laziness. I had to get up and go talk to Ana because the price on the text was $96 I told her I didn’t want to accept and sign because I had a $19.99 coupon she said she would take care of it and come get me, she did a bit later and handed me the invoice, it said $86 i said AGAIN I have a coupon for $19.99 oil change, she said she would get someone to fix it, so I waited and she came back and th invoice was for $39.01, i said wait why is it this and now $19.99 she said the fees and said can you explain that to me…deer in the headlights look, she couldn’t explain to me fees that are a part of her everyday job…I didn’t punch I just said ok gave her my card as she went to scan it i said out loud to no one “your coupons are xxxxxxxx” didn’t yell or anything just said it. She came back asked me to sign the invoice I didn’t and proceeded to write on it she told me I didn’t need to do that i said yes I did, she’s tried to pull the paper out form u set me as Im writing, I wrote “will not be coming back coupon is a lie” she then told me I was no linger welcome to come back i said no problem I wasn’t going to come back anyway, asked her where the key to my car was she said in your car, didn’t tell me where it was parked or anything. I walked outside looked for my car, a nice tech asked if I needed help i said yes Im trying to find my car he TOOK me to my car something Ana should have done any service should walk their customer to their car. I will not be going back I can tell customer service is not in the service departments mind which is sad.
Everyone at this dealership is so awesome. I appreciate the amazing customer service and support.
Mr. Mason was insanely helpful and friendly. Big up to him! Great service and fast.
I purchased my vehicle from them, if your going to sell a vehicle, you should know how to work on them.

On top of that while I was there, there was an elderly couple trying to get their car and come to find out there was another vehicle blocking them in and the employees could not locate that vehicles keys for at least 20 minutes. I would never recommend anyone to purchase any vehicle from here or to have service done here. Not once have I had a good experience with them.
Mason was the best! His customer service is amazing, he took such great care of my car.
From the moment I spoke to the first person, I was greeted professionally. I was taken care of throughout the entire process. Communication was great ,and the service was very fast.
Sal in the service department was very informative and thoughtful. He got the speciality part on order for me and got my car scheduled right away.

Zane provided great service from start to finish! He took care of my needs quickly.
I was very glad to get my oil and filter plus oil pan plug gasket and equally glad to get the discount offered for choosing a time they offered. SAL , the service person who greeted me and then returned when finished was Pleasant and helpful.
The service is bad, the car lot has no room to park customer vehicles and all new vehicles on lot dusty and dirty. But, the service writer David Harrison and the auto tech that worked on my Kia Optima were awesome.
I’ve been coming to this location for the past year and 5 months and I love it I get treated with quality service my second car from this company and I can’t be happier will love to continue my business
Kia of South Austin is a great dealership. The dealership is very clean and there’s plenty of goodies in the waiting area to keep you satisfied. The Kia staff are very good and helpful. The service team takes good care of my car every time I take my car in. They are thorough and reliable. Today i was in and out of the dealership way before it was promised! Thank you so much Zane for all your help!!!
Excellent service. They are very friendly and always quick and efficient. I highly recommend this service department.
Weekdays are best for quick service, weekends get a bit busier. The service advisor I had this time was efficient and friendly. I’ve been coming here for years to get my oil changed, always trustworthy and reliable.
Mo and all of the Kia South team are great! Highly recommend them if you're looking for a great deal and awesome service.
I had mad a 9 am appointment for a routine chckup; this time consisting of an oil change and tire rotation. Steve, who checked me in, told me tha the car should be ready in two hours or less. Well, it was 12:45 when Steve came into the waiting room and told me that my car was ready.!! That was 3.5 hours .
Dealer has had my car for a month now due to a recall on the car. As of today no work has been completed on the car still. No rental or loaner was provided. 10/10 would recommend staying away from kia in general. If you are unfortunate enough to already own a kia I would advise you to at least find a more professional and reliable dealership to have it serviced
Fantastic service! Sal, we really appreciate you man. Shout out to you and your service dept. we won’t go anywhere else. Thx KoSA!
Kia of South Austin staff especially my service advisor Sal Ortega always goes above and beyond and provides me with great customer service.
Great to waiting space, they also got me a complimentary ride home and back for picking up my car.
Agent that helped me was super helpful and was able to get me in and out within 2 hours
My 2015 Kia had over 150,000 miles when it qualified for an engine replacement due to a recall. I was pleasantly surprised that Kia kept their word and had my car fixed in less than three weeks. Mason was my service representative and kept me informed during the process and pleasant to work with. Overall, I had a great experience. Yes I know my engine was replaced for a recall, however a 10 year-old 150,000 mile plus car gets a new engine, great service and no hassles I’m still amazed!
Place has been very good for regular maintenance. The only problem that I see is that it is at a crowded area.
Kia of South Austin provides easy of scheduling as week as good service. I will use them going forward because of the service.
They always provide great service. With a minimum amount of downtime. This is the only place I got to serve with my vehicle.
Me gusta la honestidad y su buen servicio le doy una calificacion de 10 Estrellas al asesor Salvador Ortega
I receive great customer service, Ashley Martinez, you did a great job, see you next time
Fast and friendly service it was a great visit and experience especially from Randy Q.!
Courteous and friendly staff in the service department. Work done quickly. Clean and comfortable waiting area.
This dealership really worked with me and did an awesome job! Mason was the best. Thank you all so much!
I purchased my car elsewhere, but to me, it made no difference. John, the service manager and Zane, my service advisor, were terrific, as they had to follow up with Kia corporate to make sure the right parts were ordered and installed. I appreciate their hard work.
Quiero agradecer y felicitar a salvador que me atendió. Desde el primer momento fue muy amable, atento y profesional. Me explicó todo con paciencia, resolvió mis dudas y me hizo sentir en confianza. Es un placer recibir un servicio tan cordial y eficiente, definitivamente se nota cuando alguien disfruta y se preocupa por su trabajo. ¡Gracias por la excelente atención!
We bought this car two years ago and we always take it back to have a service at the same place. We bought it. Good service.
From start to finish, Ashley and everyone in the service department were very nice and helpful.
If possible, I would give 0 stars. I brought my car in for an oil change and tire rotation. Was told it would take about an hour and it took three hours. I had errands to run that I didn’t get done because I was stuck waiting on a simple service. Then when I got my car back, they parked it and blocked it with other cars.
Really bad service unprofessional more than two hours for just oil change the adviser really rude
I don't normally write these types of reviews. Southpoint kia provides great service and will not rip you off.
Shane was great. We will definitely be back. Glad to have a fast dealership that can care for my car.
Treated professionally and very courteous. They kept me apprised of the progress step by step. They listed problem item and gave me finance options.
So disappointed with the service at this KIA, I addressed an issue I had on a previous visit with my front end alignment, this visit I had an oil change and tire rotation, my car is driving worse than when I arrived, I contacted the service advisor, left a message, he never returned my call. I am very disappointed with the service here, I was going to pick my great grandson, but definitely wouldn’t put him in an unsafe vehicle. Can’t understand why they didn’t test drive the vehicle to see how bad it drives. If anything ... Read More Full review text opened.DealerRater - Aug 2, 2025
So disappointed with the service at this KIA, I addressed an issue I had on a previous visit with my front end alignment, this visit I had an oil change and tire rotation, my car is driving worse than when I arrived, I contacted the service advisor, left a message, he never returned my call. I am very disappointed with the service here, I was going to pick my great grandson, but definitely wouldn’t put him in an unsafe vehicle. Can’t understand why they didn’t test drive the vehicle to see how bad it drives. If anything happens with my tires wear off, it’s because of the poor work done on my vehicle. I appreciate if this message get to a supervisor.
Kia vehicles have almost the same problems with oil and brakes. I had two kia that did the same thing. The 2022 should have lasted longer.
I don’t know anything about cars honestly, but Zane May (my regular service advisor) explains things in a way I can comprehend. I’m very grateful for that.
Employees are always courteous and dealership is always clean. Maintenance always done in a timely manner
Extremely helpful and honest staff. I appreciated their listening to my concerns and even trying to test drive to get a sense of what I was experiencing with my car.
Amazing service , always have a great time leaving my car in good hand with kia 🙂
I have been taking my car here for 5 years. Service personnel are always polite, professional and helpful. They listen to concerns and do their best to address the issues. I have never been disappointed with the maintenance on my car. Today, Zane was friendly, knowledgeable and had my car serviced in very short time. Also kept me up to date on all issues. I highly recommend KIA of South Austin.
The service and the staff is exceptional and how the customer is #1 is what’s amazing
The service department has great customer service and attention to detail. My car was serviced for multiple items and they delivered on all of them within a few hours. Thank you Salvador for your great service.
I was so pleased with the way Mr. Warren greeted me and assessed my vehicle’s mileage/recommended service. He immediately noticed that I had erroneously chosen a service package that included brake fluid change which had been done on my previous appointment. And I liked his demeanor and communication skills.
The customer service at the dealership was truly outstanding—every team member was friendly and helpful. Mark Haney, in particular, stood out for his professionalism and courtesy. He was extremely knowledgeable about the vehicles and took the time to thoroughly answer all our questions. Although we're still in the early stages of our car search, I’m looking forward to working with Mark again in the near future.
We have enjoyed our 2021 Telluride and our 2011 Sorento. They have been serviced and cared for by South Austin KIA since purchase. We continue to be very satisfied with the service and professional service personnel!
Amazing, friendly customer service from both the service department and sales department. Everyone is cheerful and eager to help.
David did a great job of ensuring my car's service experience was fantastic. All work was done quickly and efficiently and I was kept updated throughout the process.
Zane was very helpful and my car was quickly worked on and returned to me clean. My experience at KIA of South Austin is always positive.
DeVonte was so very helpful. Great attitude and no pressure. He kept me updated on the progress and made recommendations for future service with no pressure to do them right away.
