Bob Sight Independence Kia

I had the best car shopping experience with John Nussbaum at Bob Sight Kia, and his manager Matt. John wasn't pushy or overly sales-y. He was patient with me as it took more than a month for me to decide on the right car. I decided on a specific trim package and color for the 2026 Sorento Hybrid, and he reached out to a lot of other dealerships to source the exact car I wanted, which I LOVE. I highly recommend working with John and the team at Bob Sight Kia in Independence, MO.

​I can’t recommend John and the management team at Bob Sight Kia enough. Finding a "fair and honest" experience in car buying can be rare, but John made the entire process seamless and straightforward. He’s a great guy who truly prioritizes the customer’s needs without any of the typical pressure. ​We were so impressed with our first experience that we actually came back with friends to help them secure a second vehicle. It’s rare to find a dealership where you feel confident referring your inner circle, but the team here has earned that trust. If you want a transparent, no-nonsense deal and a team that stands by their word, go see John!

These folks made the car buying process so much better than I anticipated! I am so thankful for the people I worked with — Nawaz and Tony were the GOATS. I got a good deal, didn’t feel rushed or pressured, and they had a good sense of humor. Then not only did it all go smoothly, but Nawaz went above and beyond by meeting me to give me something I left in my old car after I drove off with my new one. I’d definitely recommend this dealership!

I worked with John N to get my new car and he is great! He kept me up to date the entire time since we had to wait for the car to be delivered. He made this process super quick and easy.

If you are buying a used car here DO NOT trust there promises or claims that the vehicle has been through their service department and received a clean bill of health. Take the car somewhere else for an inspection before you sign anything. I bought an older Kia listed as a clean one- owner car, fully serviced and ready to go with a clean bill of health. Drive it an hour and a half home in the rain and everything seemed fine. Over the next few days of driving we noticed a strong smell of burning oil. Took it to a local shop and sure enough it had a major oil leak from the valve cover. Bad enough that it was running down the backside of the engine, completely coating the oil pan, and had been leaking long enough to have residue buildup on top of the transmission (see pics). There is no way they could have missed this leak while they were changing the oil prior to my purchase. Absolutely no way! So they chose not to fix it and dumped the problem on an unsuspecting buyer. Anyway I promptly called the salesman Tony Robertson and he basically said I knew I was buying a used car and should have had it inspected before purchase like it was my fault. He did offer a refund if I returned the vehicle which was not an option for me since I live over an hour away an work every day except Sunday. So I had the leak fixed at a cost of nearly $400 and learned a valuable lesson. Needless to say my family will not do business with this dealership again (2nd car purchased here).
