Kia Ranked #1

By jumping six spots, Kia has occupied the top tier among mass-market brands by J.D. Power! Having reported 97 problems per 100 vehicles, this achievement has proven that Kia is a fine contender among its competing vehicles. In their respective segments, the Sorento, Sportage, and Optima have ranked #1, giving its drivers the peace of mind that they've picked a fine option to keep them on the road for the long haul. To prove this, Kia owners reported fewest problems in new vehicles after three years of ownership1. Furthermore, Kia has been recognized as one of the best 100 brands and won a #1 ranking2 in J.D. Power's 2020 Initial Quality Study.

J.D Power Dependability Award

If you're curious about what this award means, allow us to dive into greater detail. Every year, J.D. Power puts contending rides through dependability tests, and chooses a model that meets their standards from having shown the least amount of problems. This is accomplished by surveying over 80,000 owners, while also examining the amount of issues reported by owners over time to see how the participating models wear. By inspecting segments ranging from compact cars to large SUVs and trucks, you can use this dependability award to make a confident and informed decision when proceeding with your next automobile.

The staff there are wonderful and really work hard to make sure that they meet your needs. Jay helped us through the whole experience and was always positive and willing to answer all of our questions at any time of the day. My fiance and I had very specific needs for our vehicle and Jay worked with us through everything to make sure we found the car we both wanted and needed that fit our specifications. Unlike certain dealers in the area, never once did we feel pressured to buy immediately, Jay made sure that what we were looking at was exactly what we wanted. He made sure that we were comfortable with the whole car buying experience and were 100% satisfied with what we picked out. Thank you Jay and World Car! You definitely have our business any time we need a new car!

I just went there for an oil change. Reception was fine, service was timely and they offer coffee and WiFi free of charge. I was happy. They also washed my car for free. Can't beat that.

Rudy is the friendliest, kindest guy you could meet when shopping for a car. I could write a whole essay about how nice and thoughtful he is, but the most important thing is that he listens to you. He will listen to you when you tell him what you need and want and he will do his best for you. I met him through my dad when I bought my first car. He knew I was already in love with the Soul, but he made sure I didn't leave without being completely informed on all its features. I referred my fiance Brandon to him a year later when he was replacing his used car. Rudy helped him through the process of buying and familiarizing him with the Optima that Brandon had chosen. A month didn't even pass before we got a referral check from him in the mail. Whether you know what you want already or not - Rudy can help you out. I highly recommend speaking to him if you stop by. And if he's reading this, thank you again for everything!
