I went to Charlie obaugh Kia on January 23rd of this year and got my very first brand new car all on my own, with a huge thank you to my salesman Erik!!. He made sure I was taken care of the whole time I was there and helped me understand any and everything I didn’t understand. The team there did amazing work as well when it came to making sure I got insurance on the car that weren’t to pricey! My overall experience at the kia dealership was a great experience for me being a first timer ... Read More

Outstanding dealership. My daughter was on her way home to PA from NC, when her Hyundai had a sensor problem that switched it into safe mode (limited to 60mph). Found Obough online, called, and spoke to the amazingly helpful Leah. Even tho it was late on a Monday afternoon, my daughter was able to stop in and have the sensor reset quickly and on the spot. My kiddo made it home safely a few hours later. Thank you, Team Obough!! 🙂

Shot out to Erik Allen and Charlie Obaugh for making the whole sales experience quick and easy. I love my new 2026 Sorento and I appreciate the time spent with me to make this purchase so easy. I would highly recommend Erik and would definitely do business with him and Charlie Obaugh in the future.

Great staff and excellent work. They take pride in their work. The service manager called me and was not happy with the blending of the paint of the new hatch back with existing paint.

This review is to share how fantastic my experience has been with this dealership. I purchased my 2025 Kia Sportage from Charlie Obaugh Kia in May 2025 because they had the specific model and color I wanted at a better price than other locations. After test-driving two vehicles, I worked with Jose via text to finalize my decision. We completed the deal over the phone, and I was very impressed that they offered to deliver the vehicle to me free of charge, especially since I live over two hours away. I returned a few days ago for my first oil change and ... Read More

Sam was very low pressure and like talking to an old friend. I have been buying new cars every couple of years since 1990 and this was the first time that I ever had a salesperson get in the car after the purchase and explain every knob and button to me. I also appreciate that he was willing to let me ride for the test drive while he drove. I don't like to drive a car I don't own and he didn't make me feel stupid for having that anxiety.

We recently purchased a new car from Charlie Obaugh Kia, and the entire experience was fantastic. Our salesperson, Melissa, was absolutely wonderful to work with. She went above and beyond to accommodate our busy work schedules. Thanks to her flexibility and preparation, our time at the dealership was quick and efficient, which was especially helpful since we couldn’t arrive until later in the afternoon. If you’re looking for a smooth, stress‑free car‑buying experience, I highly recommend working with Melissa and the team at Charlie Obaugh Kia.

I needed a spare key as the used Kia I bought had only 1. The person I spoke to on the phone quoted 316 dollars. After 90 minutes of waiting I was presented a bill for over 600 dollars. The extra was to program the key. A year or so ago, after losing a key, the local Honda dealer charged about 300 dollars for a new key and programming. The Kia key can be bought online for about 125 dollars. This overpricing and the fact she did not give the full price over the phone was deceptive. I will go elsewhere in the future.

We drove 2 hours to dealership for a particular color and model. They were honest and forthright about pricing. It took nearly 2 hours to process paperwork, clean up the vehicle, and gas it up in the morning on a weekday. I had pre-approved financing before I arrived. My experience with numerous purchases average about an hour between identification of the desired vehicle and driving away. I didn't feel as if the dealership valued my time. Reaching people by phone and email was difficult, response times were marginal. This may be the norm in rural areas, just below expectations relative to ... Read More
