My love for cars started at age 11. Dad told me then, "You need to know how to check your own oil and change a tire!" I learned...and even changed my own brakes...once! I bring a Customer Service background which I thoroughly enjoy as well. Combining my two loves, and working with the amazing Team at Turpin Kia has been a dream come true. I look forward to speaking to you when you book your next Service! :o)

A pleasant and satisfying experience. We had done our research, we knew what we wanted, a 2020 Soul. But, we had questions and we would not settle for any trim and colour, etc.etc. Mike th We had done our research, we knew what we wanted, a 2020 Soul. But, we had questions and we would not settle for any trim and colour, etc.etc. Mike the salesman had all the answers and no pressure tactics. Even as it seemed our choice was not available any more, Andre the sales manager searched and found one - out of province. A week later we drove away... our first new car buying experience in 10 years proved most pleasant and satisfying. What a team at Turpin Kia. Thank you Andre Smith and Mike Peters.

The excellence of Turpin KIA for sales and service. Our 2019 Soul (SK3 GT-LINE LIMITED) is the second new car that we purchased from Turpin KIA. We were most pleased to find that the excellence that we Our 2019 Soul (SK3 GT-LINE LIMITED) is the second new car that we purchased from Turpin KIA. We were most pleased to find that the excellence that we experienced in buying a 2016 Soul continues to be the value and practice of Turpin KIA. We look forward to dealing with Turpin KIA when we purchase our next car (around 2022), ideally another Soul. Mike Peters was exceptional in his consideration, straightforwardness, and patience over the months leading up to the sale. We felt no pressure to buy; instead, we benefited from Mike’s professionalism and knowledge as we worked toward what to buy and when to purchase. Similarly, Andre Smith’s plain language explanations enabled us to obtain the optional products/services and financing that was right for us. It is reassuring to deal with folk who are straightforward and fair in ensuring quality relations with Turpin KIA’s clients (i.e., beyond the treatment of customers). How they treat clients was demonstrated by securing the out-of-stock model that we wanted from a distant dealership. Thank you! Our satisfaction with the servicing of our 2016 Soul could not be higher, both for service under warranty and afterwards (we average about 55,000 kilometers annually). Karen Clouter always is friendly and helpful in arranging appointments, and Terry Koeslag runs an excellent shop. We thank the service technicians and staff who maintained our care. We look forward to Turpin KIA servicing our new car over the upcoming years. More

Second to none I have dealt with many dealerships in my 65 years of driving but have never had better service in both sales and service than at Turpin Kia..Mike Pete I have dealt with many dealerships in my 65 years of driving but have never had better service in both sales and service than at Turpin Kia..Mike Peters in sales is just a down to earth tell it like it is salesman and very helpful. Not at all pushy, just helpful. The rest of the staff during the sale was also top notch. This is my second Kia having bought the 1st one in Oct. 14. The service staff is always very helpful and Terry the service manager goes out of his way to help solve problems should they arise. I would recommend this dealership to anyone. More

Just love the folks at Turpin Kia in Carleton Place My 2019 Sorento is the sixth Kia our family has bought from these folks, beginning in 2006 when they were Perth Kia (Mike Peters and Terry Koeslag wer My 2019 Sorento is the sixth Kia our family has bought from these folks, beginning in 2006 when they were Perth Kia (Mike Peters and Terry Koeslag were there) and continuing with them when they moved to Carleton Place, which is actually closer to my home, and made me very happy not to lose the great service from this dealership. The cars are superb, but the service is truly exceptional. I loved my 2007 Sportage, which is still on the road at something over 300,000 kms on it. We've had two Rios, a Forte, and a Sedona. All of the people we have dealt with over the years have been just terrific! More
