Johnny, general sales mgr was rude, unprofessional, and I would not recommend this dealer to anyone. They have lots of complaints about rude treatment, and I was the subject of his unprofessionalism, spoke under his breathe about a request I made in jest and was too unsure of himself to say it to my face, so he made the comment passing by me rather than to my face, His general demeanor does not represent himself in a professional way. They told me they were doing me “a favor” by doing my lease buyout paperwork, a total of over $14,000 dollars and his demeanor was disgusting for a professional position he is in. Clean your act up or learn how to speak more respectfully to a female senior customer!!

Me and my sister contacted Kia of Simi Valley on Sunday, April 21st. The salesmen's who picked up the phone was Josh, a very nice and polite guy. I explained to him the car that I'm looking for and I told him that I have $5,000 down payment and to pay $600 a month out the door for sixty months, Financing. I explained to him that I need all the numbers prior to me coming to the dealer at simi valley. Josh took the time to check, and he called me back saying I have a great news for you. We can give it to you for the $600 with the $5,000 down. Just come over. I said grate and made an appointment with him. At the appointment they increased the number of payments/months to 84 at $600 a month and the Manager JOHNNY KIA said that he was next to josh when I called the dealership and I never said 60 months, which was clearly a lie!! because they record the calls (I will get back to that). JOHNNY started all is sales pitch on us and why we are not understanding, and he give us the car at no profit, and 84 month is what everybody doing etc. etc. The deal that he was offering after he worked so hard, I already got from a different kia dealer without any negotiation. Once I realized the game they were playing, I understudy that we cannot buy the car from them. I don’t mind if the deal that I was asking is not doable for them, then they just needed to say, no we can’t, and I wouldn’t lose my day of work and drive all the way from Tarzana to simi valley and back. 40 minutes after I left the dealer, I received a call from JOSH, and he was telling me that he listened to the recorded call and that it was 60 months!!!
