Great service experience! I purchased my Santa Fe Sport here and they have done all of my preventative maintenance and repairs for years. Their prices have been competitive and the experiences have been good. Yesterday, I dropped in without an appointment because a strange noise was coming from underneath the car. I left my vehicle and they were able to work me in (on a busy day) and resolve my problem. (A piece of wire had gotten wrapped around the driveshaft and was spinning and hitting the heat shield) - AND - no charge when I picked up my car! ... Read More

We recently purchased a new vehicle at Paramount Hyundai in Hickory, NC. I don't feel that most people enjoy going through the car buying experience, but Shayle Gash, our sales associate, made the whole thing a pleasant, no pressure ordeal. So far, we like the Palisade very much. We recommend Paramount and Shayle if you are looking for a new car purchase

Amber in sales was fantastic — super helpful and professional. Unfortunately, my experience with Allen in finance was disappointing. He was rude and didn’t honor the agreement I had with Amber. It’s frustrating but not uncommon — once I declined the extra add-ons like insurance and protection plans, his tone completely changed. That shift made what started as a great experience end on a bad note.
