I was forced to go into KIA of Escondido after popping my tire on a Sunday. KIA of Carlsbad is closed on Sunday and I needed to get a tire for work and since I'm covered under my warranty...
KIA of Escondido informed me upon arrival that I am covered under my warranty but that they do not have a cheap tire for me, but a $150.00. This means that I will have to pay $40.00 out of my own pocket for this tire that is covered under my warranty.
I was the second person there upon them opening and 3 hours later... I pay and head off to work.
I go into Discount Tire a week later to get 3 new tires and I learn that the $150.00 tire from KIA of Escondido is actually a Tier 1 tire and only worth about $50.00.
Suffice to say, KIA of Escondido will rip you off every chance they get.
AVOID KIA OF ESCONDIDO and Please SHARE this story with anyone and everyone please so no one goes through what I went through at that dealership.
