Reviewed by KEVIN BECKER from SAN DIEGO, CAJuly 04, 2025

I’m extremely disappointed in how Ball Kia handled my recent purchase of a 2025 Kia Soul and trade-in of my 2021 Soul. The dealership failed to tell me to stop the auto-payments on my old vehicle, which led to an unnecessary payment being withdrawn from my account after the trade-in. Their sales staff (Alejandro and Jeff) both promised to resolve the issue and said I would be reimbursed for the overpayment—but despite several follow-ups, phone calls, and emails, I never heard back and was never refunded. Worse, the dealership only paid off the lower balance after my extra payment, not the original payoff amount agreed to in our contract. They did not honor the signed agreement. To top it off, I was offered a free tank of gas to return and complete their survey—an “under-the-table” offer that felt like a tactic to prevent negative feedback rather than address real customer concerns. This is not how a dealership should operate. They break promises, fail to communicate, and do not honor their own contracts. I would not recommend Ball Kia to anyone.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Jose and Juan at Ball Kia for the purchase of not one, but two new Kias. Both times, Jose provided exceptional service that was so impressive I made sure to coordinate my purchase around his schedule. He's knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely cares about the customers' needs. Juan in finance complements this outstanding service with his expertise and friendly approach, making the usually tedious paperwork process smooth and understandable. Together, they represent the heart and soul of the dealership, and it's their dedication that keeps us coming back. Highly recommend them for anyone looking for a seamless car buying experience!

Reviewed by Ryan from National City, CAFebruary 16, 2025

Alex and the rest of the staff at Ball Kia worked patiently with us as we were figuring out if the Sorento was right for vehicle for our family. They lead us through multiple test drives and throughly answered our questions about the vehicle. Moreover, they gave us a solid explanation about financing vs. purchasing the vehicle. Also, they went above and beyond when they helped us get a few accessories for the interior. Thanks Alex, you and your colleagues are amazing!
