Kelly Lara was the service advisor on my last visit and she was so helpful. She took the time to really listen to my concerns and explained different options. It was a very good service appointment

Service Appointment
I was able to make an appointment on short notice and was graciously accommodated. The wait time I was quoted was spot on. I was especially appreciative of being advised of a very new recall that wasn’t able to be serviced that day but could be taken care of at my next service date.

Great Customer Service, Terrible Timing
My accelerator bogged down on the freeway and I had to pull over for an emergency tow. Hyundai Roadside Assistance and Kelly at the dealership we’re very helpful with getting my car checked in, the process was smooth and seamless.

The problem arises with the amount of time it took to do a simple system update. I was told my car would be priority since it was an emergency situation and that it would only take 2-3 days. While Kelly was very responsive, I was the one who had to reach out to her every day to get an update. I would’ve appreciated some initiative on her part to make sure I was in the loop at all times. She did message me on her day off, so I will give her grace there.

This entire process of a simple system update took 6 days and I was without a car the entire time. A rental car or ride share assistance was NOT offered to me AND I had to pay for my Lyft ride to pick up my car. It is absolutely unacceptable for a warranty issue that was not my problem and potentially dangerous for me on the freeway. It's difficult to be totally upset however, because I was very warmly received when I arrived at the dealership. Later, when I voiced my complaints, Kelly and Michael were able to get me a reimbursement for the Lyft charge and accepted that the lack of initiative to make my warranty issue a priority would improve going forward.

Overall great customer service but terrible timing for a simple warranty issue that was not my fault.
