    ***UPDATE*** We found out the day after driving the car home that the chip protection promised to be performed one week out from purchasing is actually ONE MONTH... so trying to make sure we don't drive the car on the highway otherwise the many thousands spent on chip protection seem pointless. If you cannot offer a service within a short amount of time after purchasing the price should be discounted severely... now we are shuffling around four drivers with ONE car to take to work shifts, appts, etc to avoid the new car getting scratched and chipped. This is NOT acceptable. We have two cars but one is basically undriveable for a month to protect it. Plus we don't want our teenagers driving the new expensive car. Considering the costs involved this is not a good look for Lee Johnson...and I took away one star...

    Their TrueCar deal
    Artem T.

    Unethical Sales Tactic: Lie promising they'll match another dealer to get you in only to give you a quote of $200/month higher. I provided them a quote in email and asked to make sure they can match it because my mom has to lose money and take a day off to come with. I got a passive aggressive reply from Brian Walter saying how the only waste of time is if my mother won't qualify for the EV rebate for which she did qualify. Instead of the $377/Month their first offer was outrageous at $570+. Then I said I literally got an offer from them TODAY through TrueCar for $444/month so they went back and gave me a $461/month offer. They didn't just NOT match another dealership and wasted our time, but they couldn't even match their own quote. I bought 2 cars from them before and was about to get a 3rd one. They could just say they can't match that deal but no they had to get me in.

    and forgetting deals... here at Lee Johnson, at least with Edgar, it was nothing like that! We knew going in what we wanted, and no pressure let us take it for a spin. I'm use to having the salesman be in there with us, but they let us go on our own. Pretty cool since we got to talk (bicker) about little things, talk amongst ourselves and come to our OWN decision. Walking the lot was easy and ended up upgrading on our own (pretty much because we got to talk l, debate... so the married thing, with no one around, until we needed help). From there, Edgar got to know us, tell me I get a Military discount, and really got us an incredible deal because he took the time to talk to us when we were ready. Even was honest about the pros and cons with the different trims and price points. Super straight forward, pretty fast too and BOOM, we have a new car! Thank you so much to the Lee Johnson team and i HIGHLY recommend, even if you're just looking, for honest feedback. In the end, he even sat in the car with us to show us how to use the features even after the sale was done!

    recently had a disappointing experience at Lee Johnson KIA in Kirkland, despite wanting to support a local dealership. Jeffree repeatedly assured me that the car I wanted would be ready on Friday after a "thorough check," but when I tried to confirm the details the day before and on the day itself, I got nothing--just radio silence. Undeterred, I showed up that evening only to find out that Jeffree was out on that day Instead of a smooth handoff, I ended up with Alex, a salesman who was more insensitive than helpful. He had little knowledge of the vehicle's features, which was frustrating, especially since I had previously purchased the same car from another dealership. During the test drive, the audio system was non-functional, and Alex assured me it would be fixed if I bought the car. He downplayed the issue, claiming it was likely just a quick wiring fix, despite saying the audio was working perfectly when they inspected it. While filling out the paperwork, there was a mix-up with my mom's information, and we were awkwardly asked multiple times if she was a citizen. As Kirkland locals for over 10 years, this was the first time anyone questioned our citizenship, and it was both unnecessary and insulting. Julia from finance was incredibly unprofessional, making snide comments when we declined her add-on packages and getting argumentative instead of respectful. To top it off, I left the dealership with a car that had no gas in it. After being ghosted about the audio fix, I chased them down myself. Five days later, Honda revealed there was an aftermarket radio in the car. Lee Johnson had to send it to Car Toys for a new audio system, and wouldn't you know it, the left speaker blew out again less than two weeks later.. While Lee Johnson did cover the cost of a new installation and one speaker, I'll be stuck covering the next failure. Additionally, Julia entered the wrong email for my finance application and a date I never agreed to, creating unnecessary chaos for my loan process. This level of incompetence is infuriating. The stress and rudeness I encountered from Jeffree, Alex, Julia, Braulio, and Perry were astounding. Their endless apologies for their mistakes mean nothing when it's clear this dealership can't mend a broken relationship. Save yourself the headache and go elsewhere. After two weeks without my car, it came back on low gas and splattered with bird droppings. Thanks for the warm welcome back, Lee Johnson!

    I've been in the market looking for a new car for a couple of weeks/ month. I reached out to several different dealerships as I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted and cars were moving quite quickly. My first point of contact was with Tim Johnson and he kept in contact with me throughout my entire process while I was looking and not once did he make me feel pressured, it was just an email asking how I was doing, and how he could help. I went to the dealership on the weekend, which we all know is a very busy time. I walked in and was immediately greeted by everybody who worked there. People were extremely kind and friendly. I was in and out of purchasing the vehicle in less than 2 1/2 hours and that includes the test drives that I took. Have you guys ever heard of this? It was so easy and simple. They made it painless. You can tell they work very well as a team there and I was highly impressed. Excellent customer service. If you're in the market for a new car, go to Lee Johnson in Kirkland, as they are a family owned business, and you can tell they do treat people like family. And if you are looking for a educated, easy-going, non-pressure, sales man, go and see Tim Johnson. You will not be disappointed. He even put a big red bow on my car before I left and took a picture :)

    Seltos S Turbo

    We bought our Kia Seltos S Turbo here today! This was the second dealership we visited today, the first one was a horrible experience which made us feel pretty defeated and just tired, and we honestly though that was just how it was gonna go: aggresive negotiations, that feeling that you're being tricked. We experienced nothing like that at Lee Johnson Kia, thank god! We arrived and were promptly greeted and introduced to Jesse, who was super nice and brought over the 2 SUVs we mentioned we were interested in for us to look at before we even got into pricing. We fell in love with our new car & were shown up front sticker pricing & different specs. It just felt right. It felt like we were dealing with a good friend. We were there for a long time, and our 7 month old was with us. I can honestly say almost every employee now knows our baby and went by to say hi, offer food or drinks. They got us pizza while we waited, it was delicious. Overall, it was an amazing experience, you can definitely see they're focused on their clients and not just on the sales. Never thought I'd say this about a dealership but I'm sure whenever we go service our car I'll be happy to see everyone again & update them on their new friend Charlie. Thank you for a great experience.

    Even though this was out of my way, I went to Eastside Subaru Kennedy because they had good…read morereviews for honesty and Customer Service. All those reviews were well warranted. I went towards the end of the day just to do a test drive and ended up buying my new Subaru right then and there. The sales person Chris Hawkins, was polite, efficient and very helpful. The finance person, Jose Varga, was likewise polite and went through all of the many forms quickly and efficiently. There were a few misses, but these were most likely because I was there at the very end of the business day for them. For example, my mats for the car were not ready, and I had to come back the next day to get them. No big deal. After reviewing the documents thoroughly at home I realized I was supposed to get a full tank of gas. And I did not. This, again, was probably because we were trying to get this done at the end of the day and their final review of the car department didn't have a chance to do that. When I mentioned this to Jose, he was very apologetic and said that they would reimburse me for the tank of gas that I bought. (and I lost the receipt, but Jose said they would accept a copy of my charge on my credit card, and then he said never mind. He would just send me a check. Wow! ) And to my surprise a few days later, I got a call from them saying that they had missed giving me a rebate that I was entitled to, so they wanted to make sure I got that even though it meant they had to redo all the documents. I expressed interest in buying a fairly expensive accessory and Jose helped arrange that. I need to have regular servicing on my car and they have already helped me set up the appointment for the first service! They have a department that helps you understand your car, because they are so complicated nowadays. You make an appointment, bring your car in and they will go over anything that you need help figuring out. Amazing. I love my Subaru and, given my age, it is doubtful I will ever buy another car. However, if I did, I would go there and get a Subaru. I don't know anyone who looks forward to all the issues that are entailed with buying a new car, and And using your old car as a trade-in, but I felt very comfortable, unstressed, and respected at Eastside Subaru. I highly recommend this company.

The service advisor told me the warranty only applies to the original owner--it's not transferable. Not true! The warranty booklet clearly states that all 2024 Subaru warranties apply to "Every owner of the vehicle during the warranty period", and recommends that subsequent owners register with Subaru (which I did when I bought the car). This is basic information every service advisor should know. This dealer wanted me to pay for something that's covered by warranty. Not good.

He was fun to work with and made us feel comfortable and at ease right from the start. I would be happy to work with him again! As I think must be an industry standard now, the finance guy at the end did try to slip some expensive warranties in before I signed paperwork, as if I wouldn't notice the monthly payment was $140 higher than I had been shown in the other room. This really rubbed me the wrong way, but I think all dealerships must do this now.

I have a new Hyundai and it comes with free oil changes . GREAT. First oil change was fine, though I do find their scheduling wonky as it took 3 hours. FOR AN OIL CHANGE. but whatever. it was free. Second time coming in, my appointment time was at 8:15 on a Saturday. I got there at 8:10. waited just to check in over 20 minutes. It was busy. One guy was too busy drinking his iced coffee and ignoring people to bother checking us in. Letting it go. We checked in, the person who checked us in was very kind. but we told him we were not going to wait. We would go get breakfast. Assumed he would call us or alert us when my car was ready. So we wandered around. After what we thought was enough time, we went back. just to find out, my car was in fact done, and nobody bothered to tell us. Something has changed from the last time, as I did not get a survey. and I would have told them what I think. this was horrible service, not to mention that it took over a month to just get in for my free oil change. I guess you get what you pay for. This place has gone way downhill and I sincerely hope they can figure it out. That is the only way I will go back. Otherwise I will find another Hyundia Dealership I guess. To his credit, the manager did say he is new and trying to fix the issues, and I sincerely hope he does and wish him the best of luck!

She demanded I give the license plate number refusing to even search by the make model year, saying that if I don't have the license plate she can't really help me, so I give her my plate since I know that one (not the other) and she claims I gave the wrong plate number (mind you my car was right outside and you could read it from the window) then she retyped it and says "good job that's correct" like I'm some little kid, then asked which light I need, I'll be honest I didn't know low Beam or high beam and I said the light just don't turn on, thinking that would narrow it down (again I've never changed headlights) anyways she then gets mad at me for not knowing and says "it's not that hard to know just turn your light on" again my light doesn't turn on, at that point I gave up and asked ChatGPT for help and within a minute I got the answers and was able to find the parts, when I went to the register the older gentleman was open so I went to him because I refused to get help from her again, and when I walked up he was super respectful, I asked if the light didn't fit could I return and he took the time to go out and remove my headlight, check the part number to confirm I was getting the correct one and then helped me replace the headlight and make sure it was working correctly, then proceeded to give me the part number to put in my glove box for future reference, he then went and checked to confirm the light I was getting for the second car was correct and when i mentioned I didn't have the plate number he said it didn't matter I just needed to know the make, within 4 clicks on his computer he was able to confirm the part was correct. I was extremely disappointed going in tonight being disrespected and to be honest felt like I was made to feel stupid for not knowing the parts numbers I needed and the plate numbers for a car. But when the older gentleman helped it made the visit a little better, I wish I got his name because he was absolutely amazing and respectful and I wish I got her name because I highly recommend NOT going in when she is working and to go to another location, if I was able to I would have left instantly.
