Nationwide Kia, Nationwide Motor Sales ripoff deceptive company Timonium Maryland
i bought a 2002 kia rio from nationwide kia. when we bought the car they charged us for all sorts of dealer installed accessories. though they never installed anything. the charged me.
1. adm $1,000
2. appreance package $895.00
3. immoblizer ($695.00) (but they didnt have the key to make it work, and refused to fix it)
so the next day after feeling like i got screwed. i took the car back to the dealer to turn it in and cancel the deal. they basically told me tough. that i was stuck with the car.

Micheal I have to reply to your Rip Off Report.
The first Item the ADM. Better known as the Aditional Dealer Mark-Up Sticker. No Kia is worh sticker much less paying over sticker. Just take some time and read the Rip Off Reports on Kia dealers and you will see what I am talking about.
In my opinion Kia's are worth much less then the dealer's invoice. To Hell with the MSRP!
MSRP could mean "MOST SUCKERS RETAIL PRICE"
Next we must talk about the Apperance Package. Here in Phoenix some car dealers all it the "Desert Protection Package" What a Rip Off.
It should be called " The Desert Deception Package"
I feel that the car dealer you bought your Bic Lighter car from feels that they do not make enough profit on these cars, so they slap on these ADM stickers to make you think you are getting more for your money.
Car makers do not care at all as to what car dealers do to the car buyers, Just so long as the car makers get what they want., Your MONEY!
Micheal I am willing to bet that this sucky car dealer has ADM stickers that are the same color as the Kia MSRP stickers. Most car dealers like to try to make the car buyer think that the ADM sticker was put on by the maker.
As for your immoblizer for $695 What a Rip Off. You could spend much less and buy two complete alarm system for two cars.
If I were you Micheal I would send a copy of your Rip Off Report to Kia Motors. Tell Kia Motors as to how you feel about how you were treated.
I would Fax Kia Motors a copy of your complete Rip Off Report. I would also call your sucky Kia dealer and ask their operator what is the F&I fax number. And fax the dealer a copy of your Rip Off Report too.

Car dealers hate this web site because they know that their deceptive tricks are being exposed EVERYDAY.
Newspapers hate this web site too, because they can't censor it before the public reads it. I say TO HELL WITH HIDING DECEPTION!!!!

It is HIGH time that car dealers take a big broom to their selling tactics. I also feel that it is time for car makers to heed this web site if they want to increase the number of cars they sell.
untll dealer deception is a thing of the past, I guess I will have to keep bashing the dirty car dealers.
Micheal if you want to never get bent over by a car dealer again, ALWAYS read the Rip Off Report FIRST before going to any business to play part with your money.
