I needed a new car and went to Ron Tonkin Kia and the Gentlemen that I worked with were awesome. Jacob was the first one I was working with and he was so awesome and helpful and then I worked with Liel I felt like I was really listened to and was helped so much. So a big shout out to both of you for all the help. If you need a good guy to help you these are your guy. Oh

This is my second vehicle I’ve purchased from Tonkin Kia and both were absolutely amazing experiences. Our salesman Jakobe was top notch, knowledgeable, and got us exactly what we wanted and I can’t say enough good things about Rebecca who has handled the financial side of both purchases and she is absolutely amazing. They both went above and beyond to get me and my husband into exactly what we wanted.

I recently purchased my 3rd vehicle from this dealership. I keep coming back because of the fast and attentive service. This was my first time working with Jake Ryan and I cant say enough about how far he went to ensure that I had a good experience. I cant give 5 stars because of some issues that happened that were outside of Jakes control. However, he bent over backwards to fix the issues and make sure I was satisfied in the end. Of all the people I have met and worked with at this dealership, Jake is by far the most caring, honest and hard-working. Kudos to Jake!

I just purchased a car for my daughter who goes to college in Portland. I live in California and needed to do everything remotely until we were able to come up to sign the papers and get the car. I never imagined that the process could be as smooth as it was! Our salesperson, Iiel, was FANTASTIC. He very responsive and thorough with every detail. He did a wonderful job explaining all of the features of the car. Working with Iiel and Ron Tonkin Kia was one of the best car buying experiences I have ever had!

I bought both cars I have owned from this dealership and have felt so comfortable and safe in this space. Although every single person has been helpful, I want to give a HUGH shoutout to Aimen. Overall, I am not very confident in my knowledge of cars, but I knew exactly what I wanted. Aimen was able to help me in not only purchasing the car of my dreams, but he walked me through each step with patience, and was extremely communicative. I also appreciate that he didnt allow or encourage me to settle but gave me multiple options. I am highly satisfied with my car and will always remember Aimens hard work in helping me find it.

I would like to give a HUGE thank you to Donovan and Gregg W. at Ron Tonkin Kia. My husband had been very ill and I found myself in the position of making a car purchase without his assistance. Donovan provided me with exceptional guidance to purchase a vehicle with the appropriate size, features, and price that was right for our situation. There was no pressure, only accurate information and sincere interest in helping me make an informed decision by both of these gentlemen. They were truly amazing resources and I would recommend them to my friends and family.

We bought a 2016 Toyota Sienna AWD which had just been traded in. The car was exactly what we were hunting for. Jake was a great help. We had a lot of questions and Jake got us the real scoop. He arranged for a complete servicing and clean-up before we picked up the car and now after a 5000 mile cross-country we are really glad we made the purchase.

Donovan was AMAZING! Super kind and helpful, and was very understanding of how much money I was able to spend on a vehicle. I was waiting on a SPECIFIC model of car to come in, and he made sure I got it. Our experience was so great that my partner also purchased a vehicle from him in the same week. Donovan was the best part about our experience at this dealership. Would definitely recommend Ron Tonkin Kia to others! :)

I had a sales experience that was so much better than I anticipated and that was due to Jared Peters. I started shopping around online, and truly wanted to buy at my favorite dealership closer to home, but Tonkin had the exact used car I was looking for. As I work full time and care for my mom when Im not at work, I didnt have time to visit dealerships and spend hours looking. Having my financing already lined up made it nearly effortless. The only challenge was to my patience, waiting 2 weeks for the car to be inspected. When Jared jumped in to start fielding my questions and give me more info about the car, I knew that the process would go as smooth as possible. He was always timely, helpful, and informative. I will definitely recommend this Tonkin dealership, and Jared.

First purchase at this dealership, but we’ve bought many vehicles over the years. By far, this was one of the smoothest transactions we’ve encountered. Everything was digitized, so the application and document portion was extremely efficient. And the value we received for our trade, and our purchase, were equitable for all parties involved. Definitely would recommend Ron Tonkin Kia.

I bought my car at Weston Kia in 2018 and was getting service out there but it was far away so I thought I would try Ron Tonkin since its really close. Bad mistake. In August/September I got my oil changed and a replacement cabin filter. The tech spilled oil in the engine bay and used a chemical to clean it up.Nobody of course told me this. I drove away and white smoke and a putrid burning smell was coming from under my hood. I drove back to my house and opened the hood to find spray residue all over my engine bay. I took it back and the rep mentioned that the tech spilled oil and there was likely residue from the cleaner they used. Alright that makes sense but why not take the extra 5 minutes to actually wipe and clean your mistake prior to the customer leaving? The rep did clean the area better but the interior of my car smelled like burning oil for days.Fast forward to today. I noticed that my AC/heater blower motor was making a loud noise. I thought something had gotten into my cabin filter like a critter. I opened the cabin filter compartment and found that the Ron Tonkin tech had broken a latch on the door that seals the cabin filter. When I pulled the cabin filter out it was all smashed into the compartment allowing debris to get into the blower. I took the car back to Ron Tonkin and the rep did do the right thing of replacing the compartment door and filter. There was no apology though. No refund offered. Best of all? I have to take the car back to the dealership for 3-4 hours because they need to disassemble the dash to clean the blower fan. All of this could have been avoided, including their staffing time, had the person who replaced the cabin filter taking 5 minutes to check their work and do the job right the first time. With this track record I am concerned whether the job will be done right this time.

This was easily the best car buying experience Ive ever had. I went in wanting to look at a specific car. They had it parked out front, ready to test drive. Jared helped me and he was super friendly and helpful. No one was pushy or rude.The car I wanted had a crack in the windshield and I didnt even have to mention it, they told me it would be replaced. Sure enough, I bought my car on a Saturday and they called to schedule the replacement Monday morning.Im not a huge fan of the car buying process, but this was so easy and refreshing. So happy I gave them a chance and I got to leave with exactly what I wanted.

Excellent service. Just had them do maintenance on my Kia. Lobby is nice, with complementary coffee. They have the best kids area Ive seen at a dealership, our 1.5 year old had a blast. Test drove two vehicles while waiting, but no pressure to buy.

This was the best car buying experience that I have ever had! Iiel went out of his way to show me everything I wanted and to answer all of my questions. He was not at all pushy and did not make me feel bad for my indecision over color and trim. He was fair, honest, and personable. He even went above and beyond by driving my new car to Eugene and picking up my trade-in.

Wow what to say. I have rarely ever in my 56 yrs of life had service like i had last Sunday and into Monday. The only names you need to know when you go there are Donovan and Breeze. Without boring you in details Ill say this combo is like a Unicorn in the car dealership world. If you can work with them, you will get a superior level of service. Way to go Ron Tonkin Kia.

The customer service at this place is incredible! Jacob & Rebecca were super friendly, helpful and took great care of me. I would definitely come back and would definitely recommend Ron Tonkin Kia. I loved how Jacob called me the next day after purchasing my new car just to check in and see how things were going.

What an amazing experience I had at Tonkin Kia. From the moment I parked my truck until signing at the end, it was zero stress. My sales team, beginning with the young man Jakobe E. as my one on one sales person. Extremely knowledgeable with his products, Greg W. the Sales Manager working on the best deal for my trade and the vehicle i eventually wanted, and Dean my Finance manager, where nothing but courteous and patient. Over all the experience will have me suggesting Kia to anyone that is asking. Thank you guys for a great buy!! I love my Jeep Rubicon.

I havent had to buy a car in 9 years and I dread car shopping but these guys made it the most efficient process ever. Gregg helped me search for a selection of cars in my specs/range before I arrived, Aimen and I test drove the car I wanted and got me through everything in under 2 hours. Car is great, service was great, and they above all were very direct without any type of pushiness.

Jakobee was a great help. He treated me with respect and kindness through a purchase and then next day exchange of vehicle.Rebecca in finance was also wonderful she even called the next day with a better interest rate for me to save a little money.

This was by far THE best car buying experience Ive ever had. I told Liel what I was looking for and he made sure I got exactly that. He was super knowledgeable about the car and helped me get everything customized before leaving. Ron Tonkin Kia was a very professional place, and I left feeling really good about my purchase. Definitely worth the trip up there from Eugene, especially after a not so good experience with Kia in Eugene.

Wanted to Thank JAKE RYAN for helping us buy our Telluride, he was persistent but not pushy, and let us ask as many questions as we wanted, and test ride as needed. He was also very efficient with the purchasing process. Thank you for your help and for your kindness.

Review №24

I bought my car here about 10 years ago. My car is still going strong but the service at this dealership is horrendous, mainly the maintenance and repair shop. I used to use them excusively for oil changes and small repairs. I went in for a routine oil change and after literally waiting for four hours in the dealership, they finally come out and tell me that the lever used to pop the hood is broken and that I will have to pay hundreds extra to get it fixed. I know it wasnt broken before I brought it in because I checked my oil days beforehand. The man kept trying to convince me that it wasnt them. They also told me they were unable to complete my maintenance because of it. That was one experience.Im not sure why I made the stupid decision to come back several months later when my car needed some engine repairs and parts replacements, but I did. Im one of those people who dont know anything about cars except the basics and they knew that. They gave me a layout of everything they would be doing and how much each item would cost. I left my car with them for several days and when I returned to pick it up and pay, they said everything went well and was all done. I asked my friend who is a professional mechanic for the city to look at what they had done and compare it to the list they gave me. The mechanics at the dealership only completed half of what they charged me $500 for. In my honest opinion, the Ron Tonkin Kia repair shop are liars, swindlers and cheats. Do not do business with them!

For my first ever time purchasing a car, Tonkin was outstanding in their knowledgeability, friendliness, and professionalism. Jake Ryan was my salesman and he found a dream car for myself. He knew what he was talking about and even went as far to get the car ready for me, washing and vacuuming out the inside for dust. If I ever am going to get a car again, I cant recommend here enough!

I just bought a Kia from this dealer. I worked with Jake Ryan and had a great experience - he was super patient, answered all of my questions, and kept us in the loop with new inventory coming in. Having been to other Kia dealers in the area, I would definitely rank this one as the best in the Portland-metro area. No reservations about buying a car here.

Went to Kia Gladstone wanting to look at a few different cars. Ended up in a great Kia Soul. Aimen helped me pick one out that met all my needs and lots of my wants. He was friendly and not pushy. He wanted to make sure I got the right car not just a sale. I would recommend Kia of Gladstone and ask for Aimen. I’m sure they are all great but Aimen went above and beyond. Thank you Aimen!

Came for my scheduled recall on April 24 but they forgot to order the parts and told me I couldnt get the service done. I was shocked because they had several weeks to order the parts. Travis told me to find another dealer if I didnt like it. Well, the manager Geoff* called me in June and apparently they ordered the parts anyways and schedule me again for 6/19, I arrive for my appointment again and CDC guidelines have changed, I am Fully vaccinated and arrived for a service appointment, they decided to segregate me outside next to an engine block and a card box because I was unaware their company policy went against CDC guidelines and required masks, otherwise I would have scheduled my appointment elsewhere. I really cannot express how demeaning it was to be treated in such a way. They make you feel like second class citizens and have no shame about it. They definitely could have acknowledged that our own state guidelines do not require masks.In my opinion, I think this was racially motivated by Travis. A white Hispanic man who segregated me outside. Do not come here.Reply to manager below:. They had no issue bringing me right back in to the building to sign paperwork, so they definitely were segregating me and on some sort of power Trip. I am not sick and was very polite to their staff as I have been during every visit which previously included purchasing 4 tires in 2019. Definitely cannot recommend this establishment any less than I already have.

Walked in to test drive only, and drove away in our new Kia Carnival...we love it so much, such a cool vehicle. Had a great experience at the dealership; we worked with Aimen, and he was wonderful...very low pressure and laid back while also being knowledgeable, honest, and respectful. It felt like the whole process was smooth and easy. Great customer service!

I drove across town to check out a late model used car they had just listed, and was not disappointed. I was met on the lot by Aimen and he was a wealth of information about the car and its history. He facilitated all the communication with the business office and made sure I was taken care of throughout the entire process. Highly recommended!

If I could give 0 stars or negative stars I would ! Do not go here ! They scammed me so bad and lied to me about what was included in my deal. I found out when I went back in 6 months for my service and it was not covered and then they tried to make it my fault when I said multiple times I wanted it included. Also my tires already loosing air regularly but since they missed including the service plan Ill have to pay out of pocket. I had an amazing trade in and all I wanted was a lower monthly payment and for the service to be included thats all ! I should have just stuck with my higher payment and stayed with Honda where the service was amazing and I felt very taken care of all around. If I hadnt already put an alarm on this and a stereo in it I would be starting over elsewhere and cutting my losses but whatever lesson learned I will never go back here ever not even to scheduled service.

Professionals. They did well by me. Ultimately they say they are totally unwilling to negotiate on the sale of their vehicles. This is simply not the case. I ended up walking out my first trip here to think more about my buying decision. A week later they contacted me and brought down the price of the vehicle I wanted to a more reasonable level. Be warned. They will install a GPS tracker into every vehicle they sell. Its a 300 dollar add on that they stick you with. if you want them to take out the tracker it supposidly takes two days. What they dont tell you is this is a service you have to pay for to keep active. Also. While your waiting for finance paperwork to be processed they well hand you a card for some type of insurance quote *DO NOT FILL THIS OUT* this insurance company sells your information to anyone and everyone and Ive been getting non stop scam calls ever since. See attached screenshot regarding my one year renewal of the gps tracking system

Donovan was really helpful. No matter the make or model of car I wanted to look at, he found at least one and answered all of my questions about each car. He even helped me set up Apple Car Play once I decided which car I wanted to buy. I really appreciated that he never made me feel pressured or in a hurry and was a nice guy.I had been pre-approved by my credit union and Rebecca, in the finance department, got me a better interest rate. In addition to being a really sweet lady and the finance piece, she even called me the next day to check in and make sure everything was good.

I worked with Donovan at the Ron Tonkin Gladstone Kia and he was really one of the best salesman I have ever worked with. He wasnt pushy at all but maybe thats because the Kia Carnival pretty much sold itself and the vehicle had some many awesome features that I dont know how he was able to remember them all but he did an amazing job. TI would highly recommend visiting this dealership and if you do be sure to ask for Donovan:)

I would recommend him to anybody looking to upgrade their car, if they want a fun and relaxing experience. Most importantly, he’s trustworthy and straight forward with prices.

I stopped by Ron Tonkin Kia a couple weeks back to review a used car I saw online that fit my needs. At first, it was disappointing to learn my pre-loan from my bank was not accepted. But I explained my situation to Jared (My main car salesmen that day) and Derrick (One of their financial workers) and we were able to secure myself a loan with the same APR and for a better car! I ended up leaving that day with more than I expected because of the amazing Team there along with Rebecca, the financial manager who was able to secure me the best loan possible.They really went above and beyond to not only satisfy my car needs but also kept in mind my financial goals. Highly recommend coming her for your car needs.

Review №56

Dishonest and NOT trustworthy Dealer -I called by seeing lease (attached screenshot) on rontonkinkia website. Ryan sales rep said they have the inventory and the price on website listed is accurate. So I went to Dealership after arriving Ryan confirmed have the car and sale price on website. Test drive went well, Agreed on the price, paper work started. Ran credit score and they said it looks good. At last they gave me final numbers 3 times more than what is on website I started asking why is it that different at first Ryan said that is because tax and license fee(i asked for break down number which they did not willing to provide). Which would not be more than $1000 in theory for lease even though i said it is fine and i will pay those fee as down payment and then after so much of their drama. Manager came out and said Kia is having outage and they cannot give me the deal what shows on their website. Really?Why do kia rep or manager did not told me in the very beginning of the process? Why right before the payment? why you want to waste customer time? You could have simple say Kia want more money or we dont want to sell what is listed on website at the very beginning that would save customer and your time.

This is my third car through Ron Tonkin Kia, and I literally wont go anywhere else. They always take such great care of me from sale to service. Even though theres a Kia dealership right here in Beaverton, I make the commute to Gladstone because its worth it. The guys are all great (Jared Peters is the most upstanding car salesman Ive ever met, and Travis Crawford is my all-time fav--he sold me my first Kia, and now he services my Kias as my service advisor; I trust him implicitly).I cant begin to tell you what a world of difference this new car makes for our family in trying to juggle coparenting schedules, school pick-ups, on-site work needs, etc. Getting this car for the price they gave us is beyond our wildest expectations. We are, hands-down, Ron Tonkin Kia customers for life. And thats especially after our atrocious experience trying to purchase a new Kia Seltos from a competing dealership back in May (Ron Tonkin didnt happen to have the particular model/color combo we wanted in stock at that exact moment). We came running back to them; the other dealership botched the sale so much, the salesperson was so pushy and aggressive and rude, they literally couldnt have paid us to drive off the lot with their car.PS--shout-out to Derek Foushee in Finance for making the purchasing process a breeze all three times.Seriously, we love you guys! Youre definitely doing it right. Keep it up. Well keep making the drive from Beaverton to Gladstone to come see you.

Had a wonderful experience at this dealership with both Iiel and the finance manager (Derek I believe)! Came here two days in a row before settling on a new Forte and received wonderful service from everyone. Despite giving short notice that Id be coming in Iiel had everything ready for my test drive (and purchase) in a matter of minutes. For the first time going to a dealer I was extremely happy with the service and felt like I got an excellent value for my money. Would highly recommend this spot!

I love this dealership! I bought my 2019 Kia Forte Sport 2 yrs ago, and continue to bring it there for anything I need. The service team is great and fast and I have never had any problems with any work from them. I so seriously wish I could remember my salesmans name, cause hes effing awesome!! My entire car buying experience was great, and they continue to keep it that way if not better! Clean, friendly, professional environment. I want to thank the entire team cause they all seriously rock!

Aimen gave us a great experience. Super informative and low pressure. I’ll look forward to buying another car from him in the future!

This is the worst place to buy a car. I ask for a specific car, they said they had it there. Drove down to buy it and it wasn’t there. They told me that if I bought it they would deliver it the next day. Went to finance and asked for a guarantee delivery and found out they loaned the car out and didn’t know when it would be back. Sales people and manager’s are liars. Don’t buy a car here unless you want a bad deal

We were referred to Ron Tonkin Kia by a friend and I will say that we were pleasantly surprised how seamless the process went. We stopped at the dealership at 8:30am on a Saturday and left a little before 1:00pm. We were fortunate to work with Donovan, who has only been at Ron Tonkin for a few months, but you can tell he has a passion for cars and has taken the time to learn about what kind of cars are on the lot and what features they have.  We were impressed with his knowledge and professionalism. We would highly recommend Ron Tonkin Kia and when you go in, ask for Donovan! Thank you to both Donovan and Rebecca for making the process go smoothly!--

My wife had to get out from under her current car loan due to some financial hardship. Breez and Donovan were a great help in trading in her current car for a much more affordable one. This wasn’t the first time Breeze has helped us out and I’m sure it won’t be the last

Being a first time customer with servicing my car. Specifically a full transmission flush as well as steering fluid, it took less then a hour and thats with 8-10 cars ahead of me they are speedy quick. Also Deanna in the service department made it a great experience 👍🏼

Another great experience with Ron Tonkin Kia. Aimen was great and worked real hard to make sure the car I got was safe for me and my kiddos. He was patient through all the financial bumps and kept me updated through the entire process! Would highly recommend him when looking for a car there!

Beware. They are charging $15k over MSRP on several new vehicles. There are better deals to be had and are the only ones marking up the vehicles at that price. They claim fist market value pricing but are charging way over what other local dealers are on identical models. Shop around as there are much better deals to be had elsewhere.

Ended up moving and needed a new car ASAP. Got the help of Jake Ryan and he was great and extremely helpful throughout the whole process. Ended up driving away with my dream car and the process was practically painless! Definitely will be coming back to Ron Tonkin Kia and hopefully working with Mr. Ryan again.

These guys went above and beyond to get me the exact Kia I wanted. I worked directly with salesman Iiel, but it was definitely a group effort—wild goose chase that involved exchanging their inventory with 2 other dealers. I’m high maintenance and knew exactly what I wanted—Ron Tonkin simply said “no problem”. Due to the wild goose chase that involved ~300 miles of travel (on their part, not mine), I wasn’t able to get my dream car until the day after, but all in all, I’m shocked by the helpfulness, fair pricing, cleanliness, and fun personalities that run this business like a family. I’ll never go to another dealer besides Ron Tonkin Kia.

Donovan was great to work with, he helped us get into a pre owned niro and made sure we knew how to use the vehicle before leaving the dealership. He really went above and beyond for us! I would recommend anyone one to come see Donovan when searching for a new car!!!

Ive been car shopping for 1.5 months. The day I bought my car, I happened to stop in at this place just because. I was greeted by JACOB LINN.I was up front with what I was looking for (as Id been to several places before this that day so I was a little cranky) and he immediately went inside to find my budget & what I was looking for, after asking. He showed me a car and I wasnt interested. But then, he found another, exactly what I wanted, on the lot. Instantly, I was thrilled. Especially because the miles were low for the year and it was exactly the car Ive been searching for for 1.5 months. Even the color! I took it for a spin with Jacob.My impression of him is Personable & Friendly. He helped me navigate too as I dont know the area, whatsoever. He was just nice. When it came down to purchasing the car, he did everything he could to work with me. He wasnt pushy. I couldve changed my mind at any moment. He engaged with my kids (brownie points!) which is super cool because most sales persons dont acknowledge them. He offered beverages to us all. The best thing was, due to my non ability to pick up the vehicle, he offered to deliver! In which he followed through and did just that. I definitely recommend him as your Sales Person at this company. One of a kind.

Donovan was excellent and so was the whole team. Our car buying experience here was awesome. They worked with us with our budget and were very personable. I know we have a great relationship and will reccomend to anyone searching for a car. I even forgot something and instead of having to drive back to the dealership Donovan followed me home. Great Service 👍Thank youNicole & Todd Hasty

I have never left a review in my life - so hear me when I say Isle is your man & Ron Tonkin Kia was absolutely the best to work with.For starters I had a difficult trade in situation.I think the team could tell that I went in feeling something wasn’t even going to be possible and defeated.Man...Was I wrong...Isle and the team made sure I didn’t deal with any of the stress. Everything was handled for me, communicated beautifully and in an extreme timely manner. If you want a dealer & salesman who LISTEN to what you want, give you better than what was dreamed of AND actually make the process of buying a new car enjoyable - this is the place for you.I happily drove away in the most perfect Kia Optima SLX ever. THANK YOU, ISLE.
