    Recently purchased a Hyundai Certified Pre-Owned 2022 Ioniq Plug-In Hybrid from CardinaleWay Volkswagen/ Hyundai Corona on April 22, 2026. I chose this vehicle because I trusted the Hyundai CPO certification process and expected the vehicle to have been properly inspected before sale. Shortly after purchase, I discovered paint failure on the rear trunk/hatch area where the paint began lifting and delaminating. The issue has continued to spread, including additional areas on the front bumper and above the grille. When I brought the issue forward, a Hyundai service locations expressed surprise at the condition and advised me to continue pursuing Hyundai because the failure appeared to be something that should be addressed. They documented the issue and submitted it to Hyundai, but Hyundai ultimately declined assistance based on warranty coverage. My concern is not simply about a paint warranty. My concern is how a vehicle sold as Hyundai Certified Pre-Owned could develop this type of paint failure shortly after purchase and whether this condition should have been identified before the vehicle was certified and sold. I have documented everything, provided photos, followed the proper channels, and attempted to resolve this professionally. Unfortunately, I am left disappointed with the experience and the lack of support after purchasing what was represented as a certified vehicle. I recommend anyone purchasing a CPO vehicle carefully inspect every exterior panel and understand what is covered before completing the purchase.

    We had an amazing experience with our sales rep Yuliana she was very patient and showed us different options. Shut up to remind Jeff the manager he also went above and beyond. I recommend if you're looking for a Volkswagen to go to this dealership. We came from Orange County and we could've went more local, but they had a better selection of vehicles. Thank you .

    A happy customer!!

    Five-Star Dealership Experience! From my very first phone call, the experience was exceptional. Mohammed was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and approachable--his no-pressure style made the entire process comfortable and enjoyable. After doing extensive research, I was searching for a vehicle that combined reliability, quality craftsmanship, advanced technology, and an upscale feel--all at an affordable price. Volkswagen delivered on all fronts, and their outstanding warranty only adds to the value. For those considering other brands like Toyota, Subaru, Ford, Mercedes, or BMW--don't overlook Volkswagen. They're doing an impressive job, and you might be missing out if you skip this option. A big thank you to Mohammed and Mahdi for making the experience smooth and memorable. Even my dog had a great time!

    I had THE BEST car buying experience at Cardinale Way VW! I stopped in for about 5 minutes to see if they had the vehicle I was interested in, they didn't but Araceli checked that one was in transit so they'd probably have one soon. I exchanged info w her & the next morning she followed up - I told her what I wanted & she got to working for me asap! Everything really fell into place. The perfect 2025 Tiguan I wanted was arriving THAT DAY - they gave me an amazing deal & all via text without any added pressures, hassles, & fuss. My experience at the dealership just went up from there, Araceli was so sweet & attentive, bringing us snacks & waters while we waited for Ryan in finance (also amazing - so easy to work with) & when I came out, she had my beautiful new car covered so I could unveil it & then they topped it with a bow. It was truly the best experience I could have hoped for. After looking for a car for over a year & dealing with countless dealerships & dishonest salespeople - coming here & working with authentic & fair people was a much welcomed change. Araceli really pulled out all the stops - I am so grateful to her & their team! Thank you thank you!

    I had such an amazing experience at this dealership! Yuliana was the sweetest ever! She was so personable and communicative. Ryan was also such an amazing person to work with on buying my new mom car! Thank you so much to the both of you for helping us get an amazing car that suits our growing family!

    Where do I even begin? My mom and I are still talking about how incredible our experience was at…read moreGenesis of Corona. We actually started at Genesis of Irvine because we fully intended to buy our car there. Unfortunately, the experience there was so disappointing that they completely lost our business. We left feeling frustrated and honestly questioned whether we even wanted another Genesis. Then we came to Genesis of Corona, and everything changed. From the moment we walked in, every person we met treated us with kindness, respect, and genuine professionalism. Nobody talked down to us, nobody played games, and nobody made us feel pressured. Instead, your team listened, answered every question, and made us feel like we truly mattered. That's something that's hard to find these days. What impressed us the most was how much your team cared about earning our trust not just making a sale. That is exactly why we purchased our GV60 from Genesis of Corona instead of Irvine. To the owner: You should be incredibly proud of your team. It takes great leadership to build a dealership like this. The facility is beautiful, your employees are outstanding, and it truly shows that you care about the customer experience. Thank you for making this one of the best car-buying experiences my mom and I have ever had. You've earned customers for life. Every few years when it's time for a new car, my mom and I will be coming back to Genesis of Corona. We truly appreciate everything your team did for us, and we'll gladly recommend your dealership to our friends and family.

    My experience with this Genesis service department was extremely disappointing…read more I brought my 2023 G70 in for the fuel-pump recall. Because I drive extensively for work, I asked whether they could increase the loaner's 100-mile limit. The manager refused without offering another accommodation. My check-engine light was also on, so I asked whether it could be related to the recall, which involves a condition that can cause the engine to run too rich. I was told they did not know and that investigating it would cost extra. They charged me approximately $330 to diagnose the check-engine light, even though I had already scanned the car and knew it was showing misfire codes. Afterward, they told me all four spark plugs were "shot." The plugs had been installed only about two months earlier and had roughly 3,000-4,000 miles on them. Before purchasing them, I verified compatibility with two auto-parts stores, Amazon's fitment system, AI, and a mechanic. They worked initially but burned out extremely fast. I later installed the correct OEM plugs, and the misfire stopped, so the dealership was correct that the previous plugs were bad. My issue is that they never explained why four nearly new plugs burned out so quickly. I was shown pictures proving the plugs were bad, but I was not told whether they were fuel-fouled, carbon-fouled, overheated, damaged, or affected by another fuel or combustion problem. Considering the recall involves an excessively rich fuel mixture, I reasonably wanted to know whether that condition could have contributed. Instead of receiving a clear root-cause explanation after paying $330, I was quoted $871.87 plus tax to replace four spark plugs. Nearly $900 for spark plugs, on top of the diagnostic charge, is outrageous--especially when nobody could explain why they failed after only a few thousand miles or whether it could happen again. Melissa was polite and seemed to be doing her best, so this is not directed personally at her. My complaint is with the dealership's policies, poor communication, changing explanations, excessive pricing, and failure to provide a complete diagnosis. Before this experience, I was extremely impressed with Genesis. I previously owned an Audi, planned to buy out my G70, and was considering leasing one or two more Genesis vehicles. After this visit, I will not buy or lease another vehicle from this dealership, and it has made me reconsider the Genesis brand entirely.
