Alm Kia South

“I had a great experience working with Robert while buying my car. He was very patient with me throughout the whole process and made sure everything was explained clearly. Buying a car can be stressful, but Robert made it feel easy and comfortable. He answered all my questions, kept me updated, and made sure I understood everything before moving forward. What I appreciated the most was that he didn’t pressure me into anything. He actually listened to what I wanted and helped me get into the car I really liked. That meant a lot because not every salesperson takes the time to do that. Overall, I’m really happy with my experience and thankful for the help. If you go to this dealership, I definitely recommend asking for Robert. He’ll make sure you’re taken care of.”

“I would like to compliment Robert for the excellent service I received. He was very professional, patient, and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. He took the time to answer all of my questions and made sure I felt comfortable with my decision. His positive attitude and willingness to help made my car-buying experience smooth and enjoyable. I truly appreciate the great customer service he provided and would gladly recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a vehicle.”

“My Car Purchase Review I recently bought a 2026 K4 (only 13 miles on it) and wanted to share how exceptional the experience was—from start to finish. The Team Salesperson: Darian Barnes Finance Manager: Kurt Customer Service: ALM KIA Why This Experience Stood Out Patience & Understanding I reached out to D (Darian Barnes) about 3–4 weeks ago, already knowing the model I wanted, my price range, and the maximum monthly payment I could afford. Despite the long search for the right vehicle and price point, D remained genuinely patient, guiding me through each step without ever rushing me. Personalized Service This was my fourth vehicle purchase, and I’ve never encountered a team that cared as much about finding the perfect fit for my family as D and Kurt did. They listened to my situation—especially the challenges I faced during a recent divorce—and adjusted the process to accommodate my needs. Professional Expertise Both D and Kurt are clearly seasoned professionals. Their knowledge made the financing and paperwork feel seamless, and they never seemed focused on just making a sale; they truly cared about my overall experience. Outstanding Support from Keya ALM A special thank‑you to Keya for ensuring everything ran smoothly and for adding that extra touch of care. Bottom Line If I could give them 100 stars, I would. I highly recommend D, Kurt, and the entire staff to anyone looking for a stress‑free car buying experience. I’ll definitely be back for my next vehicle!”

“I came to this dealership because my mom purchased her Kia Telluride from here about a year ago. I had an excellent experience with Peoples at ALM Kia South. I went in knowing what vehicle I wanted and left with the vehicle I wanted. Peoples was very knowledgeable and friendly throughout the process. I didn't feel rushed or pressured into anything. Peoples and management worked with me the best way possible. Communication was clear and to the point. I love my Sorento and I highly recommend this dealership!!”

“** CHECK BOTTOM OF REVIEW FOR UPDATES ** ** WHEN REVIEWING THIS DEALERSHIP, MAKE SURE TO HIT LOWEST REVIEWS FOR ALL REAL AND RECENT INTERACTIONS*** Sold me a car on a rainy day. Next day I noticed chips in the glass, then on the next sunny day noticed the entire windshield looks like it’s been sandblasted. Huge safety issue for me and my family. Cam was my salesman, and he advised me that there were absolutely no issues with the car. He also told me he’s “honest” about everything and would “hook me up”. This was obviously not true. Tried calling multiple times to address this but was unable to reach someone each time. Now I’m well past my return date, and unless the dealer reaches out to me to fix before I pay for it myself I will always recommend to STAY AWAY from this dealer. *REVIEW CHANGED TO 3 stars FOR NOW, spoke to manager, seems to be interested in resolving the issue*. Taking my vehicle up to him. Will update. Update: I’ve included photos of the windshield that I took when I noticed. For full transparency I’ve also included a photo of the cracked iPad screen that was also not mentioned upon purchase. "UPDATE 1/13/26: I just discovered this dealership sold me a 'Lemon Law' buyback vehicle without the mandatory oral disclosure required by Georgia law. I was rushed through the paperwork and a lemon disclosure was hidden on below multiple clean labeled damage disclosure. and never told the car was a manufacturer repurchase. My car is now throwing 2 different errors that are serious. I have filed an official complaint with the Georgia Attorney General AND the BBB at this point and am demanding a full rescission of the contract or a swap in a clean vehicle. BEWARE: Check your paperwork for 'Manufacturer Reacquired Vehicle' notices before signing here." UPDATE (JAN 13, 2026): Dealership GM has officially refused to rescind the contract, claiming the Lemon Law disclosures in my signature packet were a "system error." However, the vehicle's internal logs show critical battery faults (BMS_a086) starting just 4 days after purchase. The dealer certified the vehicle as "Clean" on the State MV-1 form while having documented knowledge of its "Manufacturer Buyback" status. I have now escalated this to the Georgia Attorney General, BBB, and the Department of Revenue for title fraud. UPDATE (JAN 15, 2026) Forensic Proof of Document Stuffing & Statutory Warranty Breach Updated Review Body: I am updating my review because ALM Kia South (specifically GM Nathan and staff member Jerry) has refused to address documented fraud and safety-critical hardware failures. In my previous reviews updates I had mentioned the salesman, Cam. At this point, I'm not sure he even had anything to do with this. I have now officially filed a supplemental case with the Georgia Attorney General’s Consumer Protection Division and served a Statutory 30-Day Demand for Relief to the CEO and Corporate HQ. Update 1/22/2026: My deal has been fully unwinded and they gave me 4k cash in check form. Ultimately, they are holding on to at least another 4k in equity for my trade in but they did finally work with me on getting my issue solved. This took forever and over 30+ hours of research along with reports to the BBB, attorney general, and serving them a notice of litigation. Nathan, the GM did do his due diligence in wiping everything clean but like i said it took ALOT to get him to do so. Buyer beware. This will be my last update.”
