  Originally started November of 2023 my car was taken to Kerry Hyundai d/t oil consumption .They did the 3 step process to check oil consumption, my car ran perfectly fine minus the oil consumption. I was told the motor would be covered by the dealership d/t known issue of oil consumption or burning oil. I was originally told no charge then later $1200-$1500, then later $1800-$2400. They had my car for MONTHS with no other transportation with excuses of waiting on parts and parts being on back order ect. at this point I don't know if that was a lie seeing how I caught them in multiple lies. I went 5 months with renting/borrowing other cars before I finally rec. a car to drive from the dealership. Once my car was "supposedly Fixed" I picked it up and had to return it d/t heat shield issue. When I picked it up again once it was "supposedly Fixed" my check engine light came on and was losing power, I had to have it towed back to the dealership. They then wanted to charge an additional $1000 d.t needing plugs and coils. I was not wasting anymore time or money with them so I had it picked up and towed to a local repair shop that had the issue diagnosed and it fixed the same day of delivery with the cost of $123.26 parts and it wasn't even the same services the dealership was wanting to charge for. I'm not sure if the mechanics are not trained or if it is a management issue but they lied multiple times why they had it. I also have many emails from Hyundai Customer Service Dept with Sue and Krishna they were both more than helpful trying to get me updates and etc. They recommended I reach out to BBB with the issue when asked what I needed to do. Please feel free to call ###-###-#### or email me @ *****[email protected] Thank you!

  I found a **** ******* ***** **** with a towing package for sale (online) at Kerry Hyundai in Alexandria Kentucky. I purchased the truck. Shortly after signing the purchase order, sales manager advised ***** **** did not have the towing package as advertised online. The sales manager stated they would make it right by ordering a towing kit and installing it. I agreed to this as I needed a truck to tow a boat I was purchasing. October 10th, 2023, we arrive for the towing package to be installed. After a couple of hours, we were advised the towing kit was installed but they forgot the wiring harness. I advised I traveled 1.5 hours for service. We agreed that the service department would order the wiring harness and we would get it installed along with the trucks first oil change. March 20th, 2024. I asked about bringing the truck in for the wiring harness so I could tow my boat. I was informed Hyundai had gotten the wiring harness but inadvertently sent it back and now was unable to get the wiring harness due to it being on backorder. The dealership advised they would follow up with me. This did not happen. May 14th, 2024. I called the dealership. Still no wiring harness or resolution. I asked them to order wiring harness from **** or ****** as I already paid once to get my boat towed and was getting desperate. I was told a manager who would follow up with me. I was never called. My boat needed maintenance and I had to pay for it to be towed to repair shop. I will also have to pay to have the boat moved from repair shop. The only reason I bought this truck was to pull a boat. I have owned this truck for 8 months and still cannot tow a boat. I purchased a truck with a towing package and did not receive one. An honest mistake or not it is still false advertising. I want the towing package I paid for installed. I also want to be reimbursed for my expenses for my boat being moved ($135.00 and counting).

  This is a different dealership. We are two separate entities. Kerry Hyundai Alexandria is a separate business, but I will forward your concern to that location and ask they reach out to you for a resolution. BBB you can see in the complaint. Their concern is with Kerry Hyundai of Alexandria, not Kerry Hyundai of Florence.

  I was involved in a traumatic accident leading me to look for a new vehicle. I bought a **** **** ****** from the dealership and was instructed that it was in perfect condition, everything has been checked out, and updated. The two months following me buying the car I broke down on the side of the road 3 times leading to over 6,000 dollars worth of fixes becoming apparent. I am a broke college student who does not have money for these repairs and will be forced to lose out on thousands to now find another car. I am upset that I was misguided and feel that my safety was put into jeopardy at the expense of greedy salesman.

  I have dealt with this company the last seven years since relocating from **********. I take both of my vehicles there for service and in 2020 purchased a brand new vehicle through this company. After an incident in ********, ******** due to construction leaving nails on the road, I had to have (2) tires replaced on my newer vehicle. Regrettfully, Saturday the tire was famged and lost all air. I called Kerry and spoke with Yaro who ordered a replacement tire and a few days later we scheduled an appointment with a quoted price of $360.00. Today, I called the dealership back to discuss warranty information, Cassie who is extremely rude, refused to help instead wanted to transfer me. When I asked if a manager was available she responded, "yes" however kept transferring me to voicemail and would not answer any of my calls. This company does not have a good rapport with service managers and they have changed service managers numerous times. However Cassie is always riude and uncaring, the sad thing is they are more concerned with money than taking care of their customers. I feel stuck dealing with this company and will have to wait until next week to get an appointment scheduled with someone else. However, I refuse to continue to schedule services with a company with such bad service. Cassie should be coached on how to speak with people, I assume only the car salesmen are trained to be nice to bring in more money! worse dealership in ***.

  May 25, 2022 I dropped off my **** ******* ******* to see if my vehicle qualified for an engine replacement under my warranty. It took 2-3 weeks for the business to even tell me if I qualified, which I did. They said that they couldn’t start the repair until parts came in. Several weeks later, the parts finally came in but they are estimating in 2 to 3 weeks (as of July 27th) they can start the repair. I have not had my vehicle since May 25th. This business never explained to me that it could take months for this repair to actually happen. They also said they could not provide me with a loaner until it is fixed. I asked on multiple occasions. They do not call and update me throughout this whole process, I always have to call them multiple times to get any kind of answer. They were very neglectful in not informing me (the customer!) that they have been working on vehicles dropped off in MARCH 2022. I have spent thousands of dollars for rental vehicles since I haven’t had my car in over two months. I called customer service and have been assigned a case worker for my situation. I have gotten more information from my case worker regarding my vehicle than the Kerry *******. Not once have they ever given me an exact date of when they will start the repairs. They have my car sitting in the lot for over TWO MONTHS untouched and still not repaired! It is absolutely ridiculous. I am requesting some help to get my repair expedited. Sooner than 2 or 3 weeks from now.

  My truck (**** ********* **** *******) was dropped off at Kerry for service 2 months ago. At first we dropped it off because the A/C wasn’t working and the truck was struggling to switch gears. After their diagnostic, I was told that the truck needed a new transmission. I contacted the company that issued my warranty, all parts and labor are covered under warranty. I’ve contact Kerry every week attempting to get an update on the truck. It’s been sitting in the parking lot so long that it now has a flat tire, and the truck wasn’t locked (my wife stopped by to get our stroller out of the truck and noticed the flat tire and was able to get into the truck). The original service technician I spoke to was Richard, who we were told quit. Then I spoke to Brian, who has been unavailable. Every time I call in I’m put on hold and the line disconnects. It’s impossible to get a date when I’ll have the truck back.

  We are sorry that one of the parts was on back order. It sounds like you have talked to the service manager yesterday and have resolved any issues. If you have any concerns moving foward please let us know.
