Needed a car and was done in 90 minutes.
My Jeep needed repairs and parts were on a 4 week back order. Needed a car for work. Couldn’t make a good deal at Jeep dealership so went to Brandfon Hyundai. In less the 2 hours I was done and driving my new Kona. It’s has all the options I need and a few others. Great people working there. Understood that I needed a new car and worked hard to make it happen at a fair price. Will recommend them to all of my friends.

Love car but has issues
I need to be able to separate Brandfon from corporate Hyundai. With new cars, corporate needs to be able to answer all questions about parts/accessories/and features. To not know if the 2022 hitch will fit the 2023 model of the exact same car is unacceptable. Brandfon needs to be more responsive to emails. When I get an email from the GM and I respond with a request to email/call me and they don't, it's on them. Spending north of 50K on a car and the keyless entry and blue link not working and the dealership saying they can't do anything is unacceptable. Situation still not resolved. I should not have to wait 2 weeks for them to look into it and still not hear anything back. How many times can I hit reset on the radio????

good morning,

our Parts Manager Chris Vilette is working to try and get you some information from Hyundai.

thank you

John the sales manager was extremely nice. He was respectful in wearing a mask because of my health conditions. This was a very easy sale. The price was reasonable & I got overwhelmed with the technology of the car, he had no problem with letting my daughter get familiarized with the car & he explained everything to her. He was just an overall nice person to work with.

Excellent EV buying Experience
We recently purchased a Kona EV from Brandfon and had the best experience. Our salesman John Mercado was extremely knowledgeable and spent extra time going over all the features of the car. The process was smooth and we absolutely love our new car. We will definitely work with them again in the future.

Go see John
I went to Toyota and Hyundai on the same day. I’ve always had Honda’s but based on what I was looking for Honda was out of the question and it was going to be between the two. From the moment I met John he was extremely engaging and helpful. I told him what I was looking for and he was able to find me exactly what I wanted. I had a lot of questions and his knowledge of the vehicle made me feel comfortable that I was getting the right answers. He really highlighted the great things about the car and got me excited about the purchase I wanted to make. I told him I was going to go check out Toyota and make a decision from there. John was understanding and didn’t bash Toyota or anything. Just asked me to let him know either way and if I had any questions to reach out to him. After my visit John followed up with me a later on and I had made my choice. I won’t go into my experience at Toyota but in the end it didn’t seem like they wanted to sell me a car and John did. I had such a great experience with John and feel like he represents Branfon Hyundai in an extremely positive light. I would absolutely recommend this dealership to anyone who was looking for a new car.
