Customer Testimonials North Kansas City

Blake at Oakes Kia may just be the greatest car salesman alive. The kind of guy who could sell a Bluetooth speaker to a deaf person. From the moment you step onto the lot, Blake greets you with a firm handshake, an impeccable smile, and an energy that makes you feel like you’ve known him for years. He doesn’t pressure you, doesn’t rush you, and somehow knows exactly what you’re looking for before you even finish explaining it. It’s like he has a sixth sense for matching people with the perfect car. What really sets Blake apart is his honesty. In a business where people often expect slick talk and hidden tricks, Blake is refreshingly straightforward. If a car isn’t right for you, he’ll tell you. If there’s a better option for your budget, he’ll find it. His goal isn’t just to make a sale — it’s to make your day. And when it comes to negotiating, Blake is a master. Watching him work a deal is like watching an artist paint. Numbers move, options appear, and suddenly you’re getting a deal you didn’t even think was possible. Yet somehow the dealership still loves him because everyone leaves satisfied. By the time you drive off the lot, Blake isn’t just your salesman — he’s your go-to guy for literally anything. If I need my fence repaired, calling Blake. If I need some relationship advice, calling Blake. If I need some Girl Scout Cookies...Blake. Friends ask where you got your car, and you don’t just recommend the dealership… you recommend Blake. Simply put: If buying a car were an Olympic sport, Blake would have the gold medal, the world record, a SubWay endorsement, and probably a line of customers cheering him on.

Everyone there listened and made sure they knew exactly what I wanted and what I could afford! Kind and knowledgeable!

Everyone was so friendly and helpful. There was absolutely no pressure to purchase. I felt like I was dealing with family during the entire process. I absolutely love my new car. I would recommend Oakes KIA to anyone thinking of purchasing a new vehicle.

Gage asked and listened to what I needed and to his credit, I only test drove 1 vehicle and that was the one I purchased. Karen helped me by explaining the extended warranty and even let my daughter draw on her iPad with the Apple Pencil. Thank you both for being no pressure and informative!

Great reliable dealership. I've trusted them with maintenance for several years and now bought a car from them. Highly recommended!

Dustin was such a great help and made sure we got everything we needed! He was the best of the best!!

We had an easy experience and we got the price we wanted on a great Ev6. We drove several hours to get there but worth every mile!

Chuck Henn was great to work with. The overall experience was excellent. I will shop there again.

Fantastic! Would come back again and drive two hours to do it! Very good experience.

We had a great experience at Oakes Kia. Blake was easy to work with and helped us through the process of purchasing a car for our daughter!

Gloria is an outstanding salesperson and a wonderful human being. Her attention to detail and genuine dedication is something to be applauded and rewarded for. She made the experience very pleasant and easy, and I would recommend her to anyone going to Oakes Kia to purchase a vehicle. Thanks for the awesome vehicle buying experience Gloria.

Great people! Great service! Great car! I’m so happy with my all around experience at Oakes Kia!

All staff were outstanding; very helpful and very knowledgeable. I had a great experience. I highly recommend their services and cars.

I bought a Mazda CX5 and Logan was very nice to work with. He is a very nice young man.

Darren and Craig were professional and friendly. They were willing to answer the tough questions.

Jonah was great to work with! Made the deal quickly and I was able to get what I wanted. Not as impressed with Chris, though, as he completely changed his attitude towards me when I didn’t purchase the extended warranty. I had told him I was already part of Oakes VIP, that I didn’t want the extended, he went ahead and laid it all out for me, which I appreciated, but in the end I wasn’t going to increase my payment over $100 a month for a glorified GPS and roadside, which I already have. He seemed to become frustrated after declining and he became short and silent. At the beginning of the conversation he seemed to know about my GAP refund from my previous car, but towards the end, he all of a sudden had no information for me. Never had an issue with any other finance personnel there though, as I have been a customer since 2019.

Darren was great. He was quick with the paperwork as he knew i drove four hours to purchase the K5

Gloria was simply amazing. She answered all of my questions and was very friendly and professional. Leric I hope that is spelled right was amazing in negotiating our service agreement. I will definitely recommend Oakes KIA to my friends.

Very helpful and kind would recommend, very easy the process and thanks to you guys I have my first car⭐️

Bailey was exceptional would use her again was very helpful and professional she made things very easy

Took care of us. Even after we purchased, they still check on us.Greatly appreciated.

Jacob was great! Answered all our questions, showed us the different features. Lyric was very helpful and friendly with the financing.

They were all very respectful and pleasant when meeting me in the parking lot. Dustin went above and beyond to insure, my purchase was done correctly and in a timely manner.

Friendly staff, quick processing, and flexible scheduling. Great car buying experience. I will be referring friends.

Everyone was very helpful and nice; they made the process of purchasing our vehicle smooth.

Chuck did an exceptional job getting us the right vehicle. Lyric was also outstanding in the finance department.

They are friendly and willing to help. I didn't feel being pressured at the dealership and I find the car perfectly fit me.

Jacob was awesome! Answered all of our questions about the used vs new vehicles. Lyric was very helpful with the financing.

Every one was extremely polite and professional first dealership that I could say seemed to be honest!!!!!! I would recommend them to anyone

Fantastic experience! Everyone was welcoming, helpful, and made the process simple and comfortable. Truly appreciate the great service.

Jonah was great to work with and helped us track down the car we wanted.

Logan was the best! So helpful and kind. He helped me find a beautiful car. You rock Logan.

Chuck was very attentive and helpful. I appreciated Chuck, Sarah, and Stephanie keeping me up to date on the vehicle shipping process. The price was good and the delivery was timely, even though I live in another state. The purchase process was quite easy.

Dominic was very helpful through the entire process, and was quick to reply when I had a question. As I was purchasing from another state, he was great at sending me videos and photos of the car to make sure it was everything I expected.

Oakes Kia has been great to work with since I started going there in March 2023. Recently, when my motor went out, Jarrod Bolling contacted Kia a get it replaced. I had to wait a couple of days for a response and Jarrod communicated with me until the decision was made that they would not replace the motor because it was not knocking. Before contacting my extended warranty company, Jarrod requested that the technician do every test on the motor that could be done. He then contacted my extended warranty company. He had to wait for an inspector to get to the shop to look at the motor before it could be approved for replacement. I then had to wait for a decision. In both instances, Jarrod was great at following up with Kia, with the extended warranty company and letting me know what he learned. My car was towed to the shop on January 12 and I got it back January 30. For all of that time Jarrod was in contact with me. There are other instances I could mention where exceptional service was provided, but I think it is evident why I am giving Oakes Kia five stars. It is my opinion that Jarrod went above and beyond his performance as a Service Advisor. I am so happy to have my car back and most of all, I did not have to purchase a new one. For me, that is BIG. Thank you Jarrod and Oakes Kia!!

Overall good experience with dealership. Only downfall was pushy Finance Manager that told me Kia offers 3 years, 36000 miles B2B warranty - not accurate. I had to tell her no 10 times that I wasn’t interested in an extended warranty & then she wanted me to explain why. Not professional.

We worked with Bailey Boggs to purchase my first ever brand new car - a snazzy 2026 Kia Sorento Hybrid. We had visited a couple other dealerships to narrow down our preferred make/model. Oakes Kia had a large inventory that allowed us to mix/match features until we found the right fit. I'm a methodical person who takes time to compare things and process big decisions - so I really appreciated that Bailey never made us feel rushed or pressured. She took the time to explain everything in detail and make sure we were comfortable with our decisions (vehicle, cost, financing options, etc.). She even helped keep my tag-along toddler entertained. You may not get the flashy, luxurious feel that other Kia dealerships may have - but you will get great customer service, professional and polite staff, and honest answers.

Everyone was very helpful and made me feel at home. Questions I have concerning my lease are being addressed

Very easy to deal with. Everyone was very nice and made the car buying process smooth.

We were greeted right off the bat and shown where we needed to with whom our appointment was with. Very nice people and very helpful. We were treated great.

I have had nothing but great experiences at Oakes Kia! My salesperson offered to 3D print a cover for the start/stop button so my cat doesn't step on it, and the finance manager was very helpful and thorough in explaining all of my options to me!

Oaks Kia was great to work with! They made my car buying experience easy and fun!

This was by far the best experience I have ever had purchasing a new car. We didn’t have an appointment and when greeted by Travis he inquired as to whom our appointment was with, do we need one we asked and he said nope let’s see what we can do for you. I had done a ton of research and knew what I did and didn’t want. He listened made suggestions and showed us a few different options. We decided on the Sorento. Go see Travis he listens and is very knowledgeable about his inventory and isn’t out to make $$ off of you, he keeps your best interest in mind during your whole visit! We finished our visit with Karen in financing and she knows her job and does everything she can to help you protect your investment. Thanks Oakes KIA for being a first class establishment!!

Oaks Kia made buying a car easy and effortless. We are extremely happy with the quality of service from the sales team that we received.

He explained all of our options thoroughly and made sure that we were confident in our choices and able to make a well-informed decision for our purchase.

Their sales process was low pressure, but I could tell that the associates cared about making sure that we had a good experience and that we had peace of mind as we purchased a pre-owned vehicle.

They really took care all of my needs and had me out the door less than 30 mins !

Everyone, especially my sales person Lorraine, made buying my new 2025 Telluride easy and seamless. From the knowledgeable sales person and finance department, all the way down to the person who detailed the car, the experience was exceptional!

‘Twas good, I don’t have much else to say, thanks for a good car buying experience

Jacob was my sales contact and he made all the difference. He didn't rush me. He was honest. I literally never bought a car without crying before. Chris made me laugh about 5 times while getting the finances hammered out. Both were extremely knowledgeable and pleasant. If anyone wants to buy a vehicle, they should go to Oakes Kia.

Jonah did a fantastic job! I could not have been happier with my sales experience. He put me behind the wheel of my dream car! Working with Jonah made driving from Des Moines to Kansas City 100% worth it.

The approval process and the entire car buying experience was very professional! Darren communicated in a timely manner and was very knowledgeable and professional. Lyric explained everything very thorough and made the finance process a breeze. I would recommend Oakes Kia to anyone that needs a smooth car buying experience.

Everyone we dealt with was very friendly, and we love our new 26 Kia Sportage!

Great experience. The car buying process was smooth and easy. Jonah and Lyric were excellent to work with.

They were all very nice to me. Answered all of my questions.When I get ready for a car again I will be back.

The service was great, one of the fastest and easiest experiences. Thank you for everything

The service was great. I felt like everything was streamlined and made it easier in a pinch.

Chris very responsive great person! !!!! Oh someone named Stephanie needed something from me, but as rude as she was I could care less about making her life easier maybe next time she could actually be nice, and not a xxxxx. Sorru

Gloria was so amazing, she really knows her job. The best sellperson i've ever dealt with in my life. She is truly a asset to the car dealership. Steven was very knowledgeable and knew his stuff. And very patient with you..

I was happy with my salesperson Chuck. Everyone else was very nice and all the work into buying went smoothly.

It was a great experience and everyone was extremely helpful and polite. Definitely would recommend.

Darren and lyric were very helpful and informative! This made my car buying experience easier than most

They are kind and supportive through the process. They were open to answering all my questions.

I usually hate going to dealerships as the staff can be pushy or feel like vultures. Not at Oakes KIA. Stacy was extremely helpful and friendly. She valued our time. Steve was also extremely friendly and helpful, he didn’t give us the run around and was not pushy. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. They made our car buying experience smooth and I would go see them again in the future.

Great dealership. They didn’t pressure. Sales rep was easy and great to work with.

I would definitely return to this dealership in the future. Stacey was an amazing sales rep and couldn’t have asked for a better person to handle business with.

Awesome experience with this dealership! Stacy helped us to find the perfect car for our growing family. Very kind, attentive, and professional!

We had a great experience all around and love our new Kia Telluride. Thank you

Nice guys and no haggling. Overall I had a good experience at Oakes kia in nkc

Devon was great and we were happy to be his first sale. He even braved the frigid temperatures to let us look at another color option, which we ended up getting. When the techs were not available he detailed our car himself.

This Beautiful Soul really went to bats for me and she hustle so hard in order to make sure i was treated very fairly and that i was happy with the process and contract...i had my moments where i just really wanted to let it go..however GLORIA kept on and she didnt stop...im really HAPPY with everything overall and very GREATFUL for our ending result...i just want to SAY THANK YOU AGAIN GLORIA over and over!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Appreciated working with Chuck via text and in person, and on phone. He put effort into finding what I wanted, and working thru some stumbling blocks.

chuck went out of his way to make sure everything was ready for me and explained everything perfectly

Working with this dealership has always been very good. This is the second time I’ve bought a car from them.. Chuck is very good from the sales side and Lyric is very good from the financing side. Meg was very fair on the trade process. I like working with this dealership. Is it no hassle and what they tell you upfront is what they stick with. Even have a little wiggle room. Highly recommend them if you’re looking for a new Kia.

Absolute pleasure to work with from top to bottom. Best new car purchase experience of my life.

Lyric was the GUY that gave me a change of heart. ..and im greatful i listened !!!!

Blake Renoyalds was AMAZING! !! Super patient with my indecisiveness and stressed out 1 year old.

Capital One referred me to Oaks Kia. When speaking with the representative I requested a sales woman, I got Elise. She was very professional friendly and patient. Then I got to meet Chris a vibrant, personable and well represented a professional Finance man. He spent a lot of time finding me not only the right maintenance program but the best warranty. Any opportunity given to me I will recommend your outfit!! I'm so glad I came to Oaks Kia!

Charles went over and above to make sure I got the car I came in for. We looked at several before making the final choice. I do not remember the girls name that worked with me on signing the documents, but she was awesome as well.

We found a top of the line EV9 for $4,000 cheaper than the other local Kia dealerships. The dealership itself is kind of cramped, but the experience was great and the price was awesome.

I very much enjoy Oaks Kia Dealership. I like there's no pressure to purchase.

Dustin was very knowledgeable about the product and made the whole process very simple and streamlined.

Great to deal with. Very friendly. Very professional and respectful. Used vehicles were very well reconditioned. Addressed any concerns I had without question. Thank you guys.

Great dealership, quick and easy process, good deals and good customer service. Good job yall.

Did pressure me at all, worked with my bad credit and found a vehicle to get me in.

Carles Henn And Karen Suarez they were excellent through the whole process they were very nice to me thank you both

Great buying experience at Oakes Kia. Went along with my girlfriend to shop for a new vehicle. Worked with an awesome sales lady, Stacy, who provided a great sales experience and helped us get a fair value for our trade in. I recommend this dealership for a great sales experience and dealer support.

Oaks Kia delivers dependable vehicles, excellent support, honest communication, and a comfortable buying process from start to finish.
