“ I will start off by saying that my experience at Rock River Kia started out great, there was no issues with this dealer in any way until it came time for the delivery of our vehicle. We dealt with Todd Berg, (never deal with Todd) and it was absolutely the most terrible service I’ve had. He didn’t make delivery of the vehicle as clear as he says he did, we are from out of state and he said they would drive the car to us for $1000 we thought that was great! He said it would be more for an enclosed trailer so we just chose the cheaper option assuming it was an open trailer. Well on the day of the delivery, a driver actually showed up driving the Telluride, they physically drove the car 800 miles to us, it now has rock chips and bugs splattered all over it. We have the driver wait as we call Todd Berg, once we told him the issue he was immediately defensive and started to raise his voice. He had no apologies or tried to fix the situation in any way he constantly blamed us and said it our fault. So just purely off of his attitude we decide to send the car back and not take delivery of it. Todd then calls me a scammer saying I’m trying to scam him on this sale, and calls us liars. I told him over the phone his attitude was xxxxxxxx and he said he was glad we are sending the car back because he doesn’t want our business anyways and then hung up on me. Funny thing is this guy is suppose to be a “Manager” aside from this in the very beginning, he told me I needed to sign a document agreeing to put down $1000 deposit and that it was non refundable. Which is completely fine and normal, he emailed me the document and said he will not charge my card until he gets the document back signed. After about 1-2 hours I still hadn’t had time to review the document and he proceeds to charge my card $1000 without my consent form being signed. If anyone was being scammed it was me! Last thing to note was while the driver waited on us to sort things out with Todd over the phone, the driver lays down in our front lawn like he’s going to take a nap, and when he first got out of our new Telluride he pulled out his drinks, snack wrappers and duffle bags from our car. What kind of professionalism is that? I’ve never had such a terrible interaction with a dealership let alone personally attacked and called a liar and scammer by a “Manager”. I spoke with Jason the general manager of the store and he said Todd admitted to his behavior and said he overreacted. But doesn’t sound like Todd is going to face any kind of repercussions for his actions so now I’m going to make it known. Too many people have bad experiences and don’t share them when they should. I have seen many people get bad service from a place simply because the people who had a bad experience didn’t share it. As a business owner I see this all the time, reviews are very important and help us improve. ”

“ Usually I have good service, recently stopped in for an oil change, with an appointment it took a little over an hour. was told that the service tech noticed battery acid leaking into my vents, never bothered to ask if I wanted a replacement or if they should pull it. I took it to Farm and Fleet and had them put in a new one while I went to dinner. Old battery had no leaks, wasn't bulging and seemed to be fine. Ended up costing me a couple hundred. ”

“ Advertisement for a new Bronco at MSRP. When I asked about it and gave them all of my information, a 10k “market adjustment” was added. I understand they are going for over MSRP, but don’t advertise it as otherwise if you’re not willing to sell it for that. ”
