The feeling is mutual, and we are not interested in further engagement. Several witnesses heard you say, "if my shoulder was messed up, i would mess you up"!!! Really sad. Good luck to you and your perception of your behavior.

From Anne Russomano, Owner Nutley Auto Kia It is our preference not to debate customer issues online. Unfortunately, you chose to make this situation public, leaving us no choice but to respond with a few facts you failed to mention. 1.) This was you first visit to our dealership. Your vehicle has over 150,000 miles and has had work done at multiple shops. 3.) Your vehicle has been diagnosed with serious suspension issues – you even showed us an estimate for suspension repairs from another shop. 4.) We started with the most obvious issue by replacing tie rods. At that time, we immediately informed you that additional work was needed. You initially approved the recommended repairs – we even committed to helping you with cost efficiencies. You then decided to not go forward with the repairs. You refused to sign our paperwork alerting you that your vehicle was unsafe to drive. 5..) You then attempted to grab your keys prior to making payment and threatened our staff with physical harm (had it not been for your recent surgery). 6.) Your actions required us to contact the Nutley Police Department due to your unwarranted and unhinged behavior. You threatened our staff and under no circumstances is that acceptable. Your vehicle is unsafe to drive, and we were only trying to help. It is best for all that you do not return to our dealership. We strongly recommend you make the necessary repairs to your vehicle at another shop for your own personal safety.

Takeerah: We have truly reached a low point in society when you disrespect those who spent HOURS with you trying to help you out of a horrific situation. Your anger should be directed at the person who sold you your vehicle and /or the person who has been responsible for maintaining your vehicle. You will need a DeVine intervention to help you with either a $5000 repair or to help you trade out of a vehicle that is worth $16,000 less than what you owe. Accusing our staff of being evil or being racist is not going to make your situation any better. Sincere Regards, Jim Russomano, Owner of Nutley

Takeerah: As I already stated --- we have truly reached a low point in our society when anybody would refer to others as "incompetent human beings". This has nothing to do with a lack of honesty, transparency, accountability competency on the part of our team. The work we performed was diagnosed properly and any subsequent issues would have never been discovered without that repair. We also performed a Service Campaign and a Factory Recall issued by Kia Motors America in 2022 and 2023. In fact, there is a very good chance that had the computer update been performed in 2022 you may not be in this situation. I learned as a child "sometimes the truth hurts". Your truth must be extremely painful. You owe $16,000 more than you vehicle is worth and your vehicle has not been properly maintained resulting in a failed engine. You also failed to let us know that your vehicle has been serviced at another shop 5 times in the past year -- what were the issues and why not let us know? If you demand accountability I suggest you look elsewhere. We are very proud of the business we operate and will lean on the 7000+ reviews posted by our customers. Sincerely, Jim Russomano, Owner

The misdiagnosis of my vehicle not only inconvenienced me but also eroded my trust in your establishment's professionalism and competency. As a paying customer, I expect honesty, transparency, and accountability from the services I engage with. Unfortunately, my experience with Kia Nutley has left me questioning the integrity of your establishment and the quality of your services. My dissatisfaction stems from the misdiagnosis of my vehicle, which not only inconvenienced me but also revealed a concerning lack of professionalism and competence on your part. Moreover, the dismissive attitude displayed towards my legitimate grievances raises troubling questions about the possibility of racial bias within your establishment. As a member of a marginalized community, I cannot help but wonder if my experience would have been different had I not been a person of color. Like i said you all are crooks and racist scammers. You nor your staff were helpful and you know that. How does a bill go from$600 to $6,000. You and your staff are incompetent human beings. I would think twice before doing business with this unethical organization.

Im not reading your xx. You are scammers, point blank period. Your long dissertation is ignored as your an unethical entity and you will reap what you sew. Kick rocks your whole staff are crooks just like you.

teachfree8 responded

Many reviews say the same thing about your company. You charge people for an issue that you never fix Then you play dumb after the customer pays in cash. Customer drives home and the issue arises. U then say oh sorry its actually 6000 for repairs. 10 times the said amount and the problem was never fixed to begin with. You try to then lead someone to buy a car from you. Youre scammers. BUYER BEWARE OF KIA NUTLEY. Bad business. Awful people.

Nutley Auto Kia responded

Unfortunately your misguided accusation and inaccurate assessment of the facts will not repair or replace your vehicle. If I were in your position I would be angry just not with Nutley Auto. You may want to bring your vehicle back to the dealership that has been servicing (or not) your vehicle for the past few years. These issues did not just occur with your 1st visit to Nutley Auto at 109,000 miles.

Your review is long on your continued verbal (now written) abuse and short on the necessary details. The single reason I asked you to no longer bring you vehicle in for service is because of your treatment of my staff. Randal and his team, mostly woman, are traumatized by their multiple interactions with you. It seems that you believe by insulting and treating women and men with disrespect you will get what you want. And then when you are respectfully called out for your behavior you hide in behind your husband and an anonymous review. The missing facts: 1.) You purchased an electric vehicle from Nutley Auto Kia, we were the only dealership in the district that was not charging $ thousands over MSRP for new vehicles. 2.) You charge your vehicle at public charging stations, and you claim your vehicle was not holding a charge when sitting in your driveway. 3.) Nutley Auto had possession of your vehicle on multiple occasions and each time we charged your vehicle on our in-house charger we never experienced any loss of power or charge. We were never able to duplicate your concern. And each time you were provided with a loaner vehicle. 4.) Our extremely talented team consulted with engineers from Kia Corporate throughout the process, one even came on site and could not duplicate your concern. At no point did Kia Corporate offer to replace the battery on your vehicle under warranty because your concern could not be validated. 5.) Prior to responding to your review this morning, I responded to six 5 Star reviews with many positive comments about the treatment by our staff, that is simply who we are. You can write whatever you want about me (even when it is untrue), but I refuse to allow you to inflict any more of your punishment upon my staff. They all deserve better. 6.) The experience with you was not about being incompetent, rude, combative, embarrassed, etc. It was simply about your mistreatment of our staff. We are entering our 19th year in business and take no joy in parting ways with any customers. In this case we had to do what was right by our employees. 7.) While driving the loaner vehicles provided by us you racked up EZPass toll charges that you now refuse to pay. Respectfully, Jim Russomano, Owner
