      Status:
      Answered
      A reservation for a new **** Kia *** was made through kia.com and the Sunset Kia in Auburn chosen given their insistence on not charing a markup for vehicles they sell. Considering this is a new highly sought after model, we chose to use this dealer based on this premise.A week before the vehicle arriving, the dealership provided written documentation of how much they would pay for a trade in. Once arriving at the dealer to pick up the vehicle they lowered the trade in value by $5k as this is common practice among dealerships seeking markups. Instead of marking the car up $5k, they instead try to make that up by undervaluing our trade in. We refused this value and requested the trade to be removed from the deal so we could purchase the car outright without any trades. Given that this would eliminate any mark up they had come up with, they refused to sell the car to us. I'm certain they simply had already called someone else to buy it that they could exploit, and refused to honor the reservation made.

      I would leave zero stars if possible. This dealership should be shut down. Selling vehicles way over **** and hiding hidden cost. I agreed to the cost and signed it and finance had different numbers. I bought 2 vehicles the same day and both are negative because of the **** overage.
