Lockwood Kia - Service Centre

DON'T GET YOUR CAR SERVICED- ITS A SCAM! Lockwood Kia is a company with body of lies and a staff which is truly unprofessional and irrational. I went for car servicing to them the 2nd time Lockwood Kia is a company with body of lies and a staff which is truly unprofessional and irrational. I went for car servicing to them the 2nd time and again they did not reveal the service fee and all the inclusions. You always get a unpleasant feeling once they give you the final price which is different than the one they have put on their service board. Shainne and Colin, Matt are the biggest liars of Lockwood Kia working under Michael who is protects them for all wrongdoings . Unfortunately, I had a really painful 12 months dealing with them during my order for Kia Telluride and now for servicing I always get nightmares dealing with their service team. Lockwood Kia sales and service dept both have zero customer retention ability nor do they have iota of product and features knowledge wonder how they even got hired. I had few instances where I asked them about my car concerns and safety issues but they don't listen and have no intentions to help or resolve my concerns. They make you sign on contract without including service fee and later claim that you signed the contract. So please beware and read their service contract a few times. These guys can go any extent to protect themselves(even call the cops and give false information and claims) when they know they are clearly on the wrong side of things. I am very dissapointed that I had to deal with them and won't make that mistake again ever in future. I urge people not to buy their vehicles from Lockwood Kia as you will also suffer during the waiting period and after that for servicing. Lockwood Kia dealership contract should be scrapped and they should be banned from any servicing jobs. I know they will deny all charges and come up with false information against me which I won't be surprised as they have a habit of doing this with their customers. More

I brought in my car on July 5th and was advised that it's covered under warranty for the replacement of the coolant. I didn't hear back until I followed up with them on July 7th which is a Friday after numer covered under warranty for the replacement of the coolant. I didn't hear back until I followed up with them on July 7th which is a Friday after numerous phone calls. I was finally told that the coolant had been replaced however they found more issues on the wiring. Due to this they would need to keep the car till July 10th or 11th. I had not had the rental as I was advised the parts were not on back order. Despite the parts not being on back order they found additional problems which they got approved by KIA for. All these problems were covered by warranty however still a replacement vehicle was not provided. The sad part was until I don't follow up with them I don't get any updates. Now an entire weekend has going by with no car nor a replacement vehicle. As kind as he was he made no effort in trying to make an exception on my behalf but simply conveyed the information only until I asked and followed up. The sad part was there was no proactiveness nor a follow-up and everything was just provided from an informational standpoint. The vehicle is brand new approximately 1 year 1 month. The dealership refuses to follow up until I continuously call them. In addition I was advised that since the part was not on back order I would not get a loaner vehicle. I was completely fine with that however after discovering more issues in which I had to follow up with I was then advised that there still would be no loaner vehicle. I'm just disappointed that the fact that there is no proactiveness by them Updated on August 18th 2023. Today I finally received my car. Yes my initial review was very negative however during the course the dealership did go out of its way to assist me. The manager Michael Defreitas did give me a call and offered me a rental on the dealerships on cost starting on July 8th. On July 10th the dealership did confirm that the parts are back ordered and had arranged a similar size rental for me. I must say initially things did not go well but one thing I have enjoyed about this dealership is that they do try and work things out with you even though initially it does not work in your favor. Well done to Matthew Holguin, Parker Kearns, and Michael Defrietas! More

Nothing but praise for this dealership. I had taken my 2018 Kia Soul EV to my local Kia dealership to have my EV battery checked as I was experiencing issues with it. My local dealership sa I had taken my 2018 Kia Soul EV to my local Kia dealership to have my EV battery checked as I was experiencing issues with it. My local dealership said there was nothing wrong with my battery. I continued to have issues and was told to take it to Lockwood to have them look at it. I was lucky to have gotten Peter Kawa as my mechanic. He was very kind and professional. He listened to my issues and took care of me. My car is now in to have my EV battery replaced due to Peter's proper diagnostic of my car. He's a great mechanic and would recommend him and Lockwood to look after anyone else to have their Kia's issues taken care of. Thanks guys for everything. More

I have only dealt with service. I can almost never get through when I call. They actually don't give you any advice on needed services. This is my 2nd Kia and my third dealership an I can almost never get through when I call. They actually don't give you any advice on needed services. This is my 2nd Kia and my third dealership and the first time service was not done regularly. Was expecting that once I was in their system I would get emails, reminders, etc and advice on needed service. . So disappointed. My current Kia is my last one. I have never met a service advisor at this location ever. At the other dealerships, I drove up to a service desk and spoke directly with an advisor. This level of service does not happen at Lockwood and it should. This is likely why no one ever told me I was due for service. That being said, staff in customer service are helpful and friendly.
