I want to warn everyone from Kearys…
I want to warn everyone from Kearys Renault and Dacia Cork. Everything is so lovely when you want to get the car, Everything will be perfect and everyone will bre so kind and nice, but when anything will be wrong with the car, you have to be very patient, they will not care about you then, you have to ask and please them for a replacement car, they will refuse any compensation and they wont answer your phone calls nor emails. The car they sold me did not have tracking done, so few months in had to change tyres. Unfortunately they do not even care about the complaint. Do not recommend them to anyone.

I wanted to take a moment to say how great my experience dealing with Keary’s was and particularly Paula, and the attention and care given. Paula took great care to explain all the options available to me and the costings for each. Her time and patience helped greatly with my final decision. I am delighted with my new car and look forward to many years of safe driving in my new Renault.

I just purchased a Renault Megane E-Tech Techno from Kearys, Kinsale Road Roundabout. The sale executive I dealt with was Diarmuid Marsden. Diarmuid was extremely professional and provided me with his expertise and advice. He was always at the end of the phone with any queries I had and made the whole process seamless. I would not hesitate to recommend this dealership and I will definitely be back to Diarmuid in the future.

Excellent Service
I have just traded in my old car and bought a new one today.
I chose Kearys on the Kylemore road as they were highly recommended by a few of my friends.
They didn’t disappoint.
I dealt with a chap called Andy.
From start to finish Andy was highly attentive & supportive to my needs. He made my experience very enjoyable. He was so professional and provided me with help, advice and time to purchase the car that was right for me.
I had a few concerns during the process, and Andy went above & beyond to make sure I was 100% happy with the deal I was getting.
Thanks for all your help Andy.
I would not hesitate to recommend this dealership. Very professional and trust worthy.
I will definitely use them in the future.

Seamless Purchase with Diarmuid.
Just purchased my new Renault Captur Alpine from Diarmuid in Cork. Brilliant deal done and very smooth. Very good communicator. Was a bit anxious about purchasing a car so far away but have to say could not fault the service I received. They even delivered my new car straight to my door in Louth from Cork wow and a good tank of fuel. Paperwork also arrived so quick. Very efficient. Love my car 💙. Thanks Diarmuid.

do they just put up a reply and leave it at that.
has anybody who had a problem with them ever heard back from them or is it just me.
Still waiting on kearys to contact me.

Disgusted at overcharging
I was quoted 250efor a s3ervice last week. however I subsequently got a call to say my micra needed front brake pads and discs which would cost me 550e in addition to the service charge of 250e. total 800e.
I told them I would NOT pay that kind of money. I authorised them to go ahead with the service alone and paid my 250e. Two days later I got my brake pads and discs done for 290e by a very reputable dealer. That experience has really disgusted me. Its nothing short of robbery. Its my first time buying a car from Keareys and I cannot see myself ever going back to them again.

Bought a car from Carstore Little Island Cork
How much more detail do you require, the complaint is about the manager, my next purchase will be with a different BMW dealership. Its very disappointing that your reply took so long, it does sum up Kearys
Bought a car from Carstore, little Island, waiting 3 weeks for second key, constantly asking when second key will arrive, dealt with Manager and all I can say is Wow!! very unprofessional, passive aggressive, constantly talking over you when you are trying to explain ones concerns, the attitude was, do want you like about complaint, after sales customer service an all time low, ive dealt with plenty of garages over the years and I have never meet someone like that. I would avoid Carstore as dealing with them has left a bad taste . I went on media platforms and was taken back about such negativity about Carstore and peoples experiences.

Wheel rims paint stripped off while vehicle was being serviced. Was told its not their problem as the paint wasn't applied properly which will mean its like that from the factory as nobody else has worked on the vehicle. I will not use Kearys again or by a Renault again as this experience is unacceptable

Really disappointed
My first dealings with Keary’s in Cork were in April 2022 when I purchased an X-Trail. All the Nissan team members were professional and knowledgeable. I got to know all the team on first name terms and was always greeted with a coffee whenever I had occasion to visit – from Rodney at reception, Ellen in service dept., Richard Major, and Tommy O’Mahony, head of sales.
All my dealings were so positive that when the new X-Trail ePower 4Force came out last year I decided to purchase the demo model when it became available last June, even though it was just over a year since my previous purchase. A boot protector was ordered for my X-Trail and I understand it is at the garage.
Imagine my surprise when I brought my car for service to Keary’s ‘Nissan’ at 8:30 on 15th May to be ‘greeted’ by a guy who was still eating his breakfast. I asked where all the Nissan team were and he said ‘they’re gone’
Then I asked what will I do with my car? He said ‘take it to Renault’
I went to Renault and it was a bit chaotic to say the least. I explained about the boot protector and I was assured that would be sorted and they were to send an email to someone in ‘service’ to make sure.
As I live in Kinsale I wanted to make sure everything was in order before I got a lift to Cork. The guy who checked in my car said ‘we sent you a txt message’ – they did not which is why I phoned before leaving home. I asked about the boot protector and he said, yeah, that’s fine.
When I got there I asked ‘how did my car get on’ – he said abruptly ‘it’s all in the report’. Clearly he wasn’t bothered and I was not filled with confidence. Then I asked if the boot protector was in the car, again abruptly, ‘the guy didn’t reply to the email’
At this point I just wanted to get out of there.
I’ve waited until today (29th May) to do my review, hoping that there might have been some communication.

I had a fantastic experience with Diarmuid buying my car. He was very patient teaching me how to use the data screen (me not loving new technology). I’m driving the car two weeks now and love it! Deirdre Foley

Brilliant Customer Service
Dealt with Robyn in Kearys Renault Belgard, so helpful and courteous a pleasure to deal with.
Lucky escape
I went through an online chat last evening and left my number for a callback, interested in a new Jogger or possibly a used Scenic. This morning I get a message directly to my voicemail - nobody actually tried to call my phone - there was no missed call, just the voicemail. I just tried to call them, they hung up on me!!! If they can't be polite when I'm trying to buy, I can only imagine how horrendous they must be when they already have your money!
