• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Horrible Dealership Experience since owning my Telluride

I had feared this before I took the dive and purchased a 2023 Telluride Prestige XPro last year. I feel I have a great looking vehicle and it is a fun drive. I receive compliments all the time and overall other than the weak as Eff engine I have enjoyed it. My problem that I feared has been realized as the post ownership experience at my dealership (and having owned a 2012 Optima SX back in the day it has not changed). This may come off as elite-ish, but honestly I just believe a vehicle of this calibre deserves a better post purchase experience especially in terms of service and customer service. I have had a couple situtations were there is noise coming from either the rear or front of the vehicle. I mention it, make an appointment... takes me months to get in, then I get there and they say "Oh, that will require a MASTER TECH to look into that and he's not available... Huh, seriously? I have reached out to the president of the dealership and he won't even respond to me via email and over all I just feel done with the brand. The Dealer falsely opted me into a pre-paid service plan so I am stuck going to the dealership.. I, of course like many payed well over Sticker and this is the service I receive? Anyone else feel the same? Great vehicle, great looking but horrible post purchase experience! I actually like the new EV-9 but zero desire to own another KIA....Anyone have a corporate contact I could reach out to? Thanks
