Working with Carisa to have my engine replaced (Powertrain Warranty!) was such a professional yet personable experience. She kept in touch every step of the way to make sure I knew what was happening. The warranty also includes a rental car for the days I was without my Soul. I would gladly recommend Kia Southside for superior service.

We had an amazing experience getting into our new family vehicle here at Southside Kia! This was our 4th Kia dealership we had dealt with looking for the right vehicle at the right price and they worked diligently to make sure that we found it. Phil "The Doctuh" Smith came through for us in every regard with the right vehicle, color, interior and final price, all while making us feel completely at home and relaxed. If you're ready for that new Kia, skip all the other dealers and come straight to Southside. You won't regret it!

It never fails when I bring my vehicle to Southside Kia, that I received the best service possible. From the service department, specifically to my service advisor Anthony to the GM Joe McGuire. They are always willing to go above and beyond to ensure my satisfaction. There are several Kia dealerships between my home and Southside Kia, but it is worth the drive to have them service all of my vehicles needs. From a simple oil change to a recall, they do the work in a timely manner and ensure it is 100% right before returning the vehicle to me or ...

I am a long time Kia customer and have been using Southside Kia for all my car service needs.
