Frequently Asked Questions About Kia Service
01
How do I schedule a service appointment?
Scheduling is quick and convenient. You can schedule Kia service online in just a few minutes, give our service department a call or stop by in person, and our team will find a time that fits your routine. Our online scheduler is available around the clock, so you can request a slot whenever it's easiest and we'll confirm the details from there.
02
What should I bring to my service appointment?
It's always helpful to bring any records of previous service along with a clear description of what you're experiencing, especially if you've noticed a new sound, light or change in the way your Kia drives. If your visit relates to a warranty or a recall, having that paperwork on hand allows our advisors to assist you more efficiently. The more detail you can share up front, the easier it is for our team to pinpoint the right care for your vehicle.
03
Do you offer loaner or shuttle options while my Kia is serviced?
We understand a service visit shouldn't put your whole day on hold, so we do our best to keep you moving while we work. Because availability can change, we recommend reaching out to our Kia service department when you book so we can review the current options that best fit your schedule. Our advisors will happily walk through the shuttle and loaner choices that make your day as smooth as possible.
04
How is my car's routine maintenance schedule determined?
Your recommended maintenance is guided by a combination of mileage, time and how you actually drive, since frequent short trips or harsh Michigan winters can call for more attention. Essentials like oil changes, tire rotations and brake inspections are typically spaced at set intervals, while your owner's manual outlines the bigger milestones. Our factory-trained technicians can review your specific model and driving habits, then help you set an interval that keeps your Kia reliable mile after mile.
05
Do I need to service my Kia at a dealership to keep my warranty valid?
You aren't required to, but there are real advantages to trusting a certified Kia service center. Our technicians know your vehicle inside and out and use genuine Kia parts designed specifically for your model, which helps protect both your warranty and your long-term investment. We also keep detailed records of every visit, giving you a clear service history that adds value down the road.
06
Do you only service Kia vehicles?
Not at all. While we specialize in Kia models, our experienced technicians are equipped to handle maintenance and repairs on other makes as well. Whatever you drive, we'll treat it with the same care and attention to detail that has earned our auto group its reputation over more than 40 years.
07
Do you offer any service specials?
Yes. We regularly refresh our Kia service specials near Flint Township, helping drivers save on essential Kia maintenance. Be sure to check our specials page or ask our team about current offers when you schedule your next visit.
