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...

Showing in dealer inventory?

(Picking up special ordered Telluride)
Car salesman: “I know what happened...it didn’t come in!”

Methinks MR ED would not make it to lunch that day.... If that were me...he would be inside the old Vista Wagon..AS it was being crushed.... Just sayin'.... :devilish:
 
The older we get, the less life in prison is a detriment :)
 
If your vin number ends in 436 than it is showing to have just hit the lot..
Can you check and see if anything changed? It no longer shows on Kia's website as in stock at my dealer.

Still showing in stock


Are you able to check on a vehicle that is supposed to have been delivered yesterday? We purchased an inbound S about 2 weeks ago. Everlasting Silver. Can you PM Me so I can provide more details? It does not show up online, but the dealer told me that the last 2 that they got in were "sold" before hitting the lot, so they never entered it in. Can you help? Thanks!

If the vin ends in 614 it is showing dealer stock
 
Guess who took delivery today! I'll post pictures later when I get home, or tomorrow morning. Have to keep working while it's sitting in the parking garage here at work. It's like Christmas Eve, just waiting.
 
Thanks for the Dubuque recommendation. It would be about 2 hours further then Des Moines and an hour further then Cedar Rapids, so not bad. Hopefully the OP gets it figured out, but I will definitely check with Dubuque.
I work for Kia in Dubuque, would you like any information? I spent my entire work day Saturday on five separate Telluride orders, delivered one that evening, and placed three of those orders in the same work day.

Honestly I would ask to speak to the GM.. I’m sure other dealers on here can chime in... that is really odd to go from In Transit status to Dealer Stock status and not be at dealership.. even more concerned if they said it’s been that way for a week.

Something isn’t right.
Honestly I’ve seen this. In my CRM, I have my multiple wish list clients on Tellurides that like to give me an alert that a vehicle matched their description on every single Telluride that is nearly delivered. Why does it happen? Not sure. But I’ve had it where ive checked the matches before, showed multiple Tellurides in stock, and of course they were days away yet.
 
Not referring to CRM systems but Kdealer
 
You know what’s really ironic but unrelated? My finance managers name is Steven Cantrill.
Haha ya that is funny

I know it's off topic of sales inventory, but I can confirm that Des Moines is now tacking on a $1500 "market adjustment fee" and is also tacking a percentage point onto what they claim the best rate kia financing has independent of the rebate.
