If you are in the market for a new car make an appointment with Jorge Dominquez. He was amazing. He was so patient with me. Took the time to make sure I was making the right decision for my needs. Joe was so funny. Chin was the person who greeted me, made me feel very welcome. Great customer service.

Jorge was fantastic in answering my questions on Kia cars and also knows so much about not only Kia but other cars as well. The over all experience was great. I have dealt with other dealers and I found there are no games at Executive. Their attention to detail and straight forward approach was great. This was my second car I bought and I found the same attention I had with my first experience.

Ouafaa, I want you to know how much I appreciated the excellent service you provided! You took me directly to the car I asked to see and had everything ready to go for a test drive. I have had many sales people over the years, negatively question me (a woman) about knowing how to drive a standard, which to me is very insulting. You did not do that and I can't begin to explain how wonderful that felt to me!! Your attention to detail, great communication skills, and ready smile made the experience even better than I expected. I won't hesitate to bring future clients to you. You can be assured that I will ask to come along because you are a delightful and refreshing change, particularly in these times where there is so much negativity. I am so happy that I can put in a good word for you here for everyone to see! Thank You Thank You Thank You!!

Jorge, John, and Joe were beyond phenomenal to work with! After an initial negative experience with a different sales consultant, John stepped in right away and treated me extremely well. Jorge, John, and Joe took incredible care of me. Jorge and Joe thoroughly answered every single one of my questions and explained every step of the process extremely well. They were kind, friendly, and funny! I am very glad that I stuck with Executive Kia and worked with Jorge, John, and Joe. If you are looking for a phenomenal sales consultant, go see Jorge!

Ouafaa was absolutely wonderful to work with during the process of finalizing a prior lease and helping me purchase my first brand new vehicle. She was very nice and knowledgeable about the vehicle I was looking at as well as super up front and honest about costs and features, not to mention she also made the process pretty fun and exciting as well! If looking to purchase a new vehicle or to just generally ask anything about one of the vehicles in Kia’s lineup I’d recommend to give Ouafaa a call or visit.

My husband and I highly recommend Ouafaa and Executive Kia. Ouafaa was very personable, friendly, and full of joy! We called a few dealerships before this one and what made this was stand out was how cheerful and inquisitive Ouafaa answered the phone to help us. From the moment we walked in for our appointment, she gave us a hearty welcome that made us feel at home in the midst of having other customers. She helped us with the car we were looking for and gave us a GRAND exit with a carpet and red bow, it truly made the experience memorable for a young couple like my husband and I, I wanted to cry 😢. At the end, Steve also was very friendly and conversational and made the paperwork smooth and easy to follow! Thanks guys!

Found the car-buying process easy to go through at Executive Kia, and am very satisfied with car itself. My interest in buying a car at Executive was prompted partly by the availability of a car in my price range, and by a repair experience in July of this year concerning my previously owned car.

Service went above and beyond
Professional and willing to go the extra mile. Helped me with a flat tire on my car. Then also helped me with a flat tire for my riding lawnmower; I didn't buy the new mower tire from them and would have paid for the extra work they did but it was provided gratis. This level of service is why I keep going here.

First Time Kia Owner

Ouafaa Kouhailia has provided the best customer service I have ever experienced. She has a great judgement for recommendation. Did everything possible to make sure I got the vehicle I wanted. She went above and beyond and Exceeded my expectations. She's just overall and amazing sales woman and I am very appreciative for everything she's done for me. Joe Ortiz did the same for me as well. I was getting impatient and he assured me everything will be taken care of and he's a man of his word as everything worked out. His customer service was indeed excellent.

Best Dealership !
My husband and I have been doing business with this dealership since it was a Saturn dealership and we bought our 1998 Saturn SC2 (which our granddaughter now drives). The people here and the service is the best we have found. Before buying that Saturn we had purchased many new vehicles over the years. Never have we had the service and the feeling of family prior to coming here. We have not strayed from here since then. We wouldn't even think of going anywhere else. You don't find places of business like this anymore. When you do, you stick with them.

My family and I have purchased 8 vehicles from Executive KIA Wallingford So right there and then it tells you how much we trust them. From the salesmen to the maintenance department all are extremely helpful and courteous. We would not go to any other dealership ever.

The following employees have been super to work with: Mike and Chin in sales, Lou in Financing, and Rick, Todd, and Tucker in service. I am a customer for life!”

It was my first time buying a Kia and I only had a couple of days as my 14 year old car died unexpectedly. Katie worked with me to get me into the perfect car with the payment I wanted quickly and expertly so I was able to drive my new vehicle to work without missing a day! Everyone we worked with from Katie to Steve to George were friendly and personable making me feel like I bought a car from good friends rather than car dealers. Highly recommend if you are looking for a great car at a great price and a stress free experience!
