About Lee Johnson Nissan of Kirkland

Lee Johnson is a name familiar to many in the Greater Seattle area, started in 1933 as a Chevrolet dealer in Kirkland under the name East Side Motors.  The Lee Johnson Auto Group is proud to still be locally owned, operated and rooted in the Kirkland community.  Today, the group is led by third generation brothers, Tod and Brett Johnson, and has expanded to include multiple brands, including Nissan, Kia, Hyundai, Mazda, Genesis, a second Chevrolet store, a second Mazda store, plus RV sales and service, AutoRight Motors in Bothell and Lake Stevens, as well as Eastside Licensing.

Along with being our company’s mission statement, this phrase is also one that the Johnson family lives by. Lee Johnson, the second generation owner, believed in these words so much that he had them posted in each office as well as various places around the Kirkland Chevrolet store. Our priority and what we believe differentiates us from our competition is our focus on customer service. Each of our service advisors and sales personnel are individually responsible for ensuring that each customer they come in contact with is completely satisfied. We strongly believe in repeat and referral business, and to be successful we must view people as long term clients rather than quick sales. While we believe returning customers are our lifeblood, it is our long time employees that make the customers always feel at home and welcome. Since 1933 our philosophy has always been simple - treat our employees well and in turn they will provide excellent service to our valuable customers.
