Nissan Dealership Near Auburn, WA
Auburn is the closest big town to us, about 10 miles straight down the valley. Bill Korum's Puyallup Nissan has been at 101 Valley Ave NW since 1975, which means a lot of Auburn families are now on their third or fourth car from the same lot.
About 10 miles, under 20 minutes
Auburn Is Where the Weekend Starts
SR-18 runs east to I-90 and SR-164 runs east to Enumclaw and the mountain. Auburn is the last flat place before the ground goes up, and that shapes what people here actually need out of a vehicle.
| Where you are going | What the drive asks for | The Nissan that fits |
|---|---|---|
| Crystal Mountain, up SR-410 | All-wheel drive, ground clearance and somewhere to put wet gear once you are back at the car. | Pathfinder, or Rogue with all-wheel drive |
| A boat on Lake Tapps or a trailer up SR-18 | A real tow rating and a hitch, in a truck that still fits an Auburn garage. | Frontier |
| Emerald Downs, Muckleshoot, White River Amphitheatre | Six or seven seats, because these are never trips you take alone. | Pathfinder, or Armada if the group is bigger |
| The Outlet Collection and the school run | Easy parking and a liftgate you can load one-handed. | Kicks, or Murano for more room |
| Green River College and the daily commute | Fuel economy, and a payment that leaves room for everything else. | Sentra |
Why Auburn Drivers End Up Here
Mostly because it is close. These are the reasons they come back.
Ten Miles Is Nothing
Auburn to Puyallup is one valley run with no hills and no bridges. That matters most for service, because a ten-mile drop-off is a genuine errand rather than a lost afternoon.
Fifty Years at One Address
Opened at 101 Valley Ave NW in 1975 and still there, still run by the same family. Auburn customers who bought here in the 1980s are sending their kids in now.
Built for the Road East
Half of Auburn's driving happens on SR-410 and SR-164 rather than the freeway. The lot skews toward all-wheel drive and toward the Pathfinder and Frontier, because that is what this end of the valley asks for.
Certified Nissan Service
Factory-trained Nissan technicians and genuine Nissan parts, for any Nissan regardless of where it was bought. Book online or call (253) 444-6740.
167 Points on a Certified Car
Nissan Certified Pre-Owned means a 167-point inspection plus documented history. The certified pool is smaller than the used lot, so ask which specific cars qualify.
Appraisals Without a Purchase
Bring your car in for a number whether or not you are buying anything. Plenty of Auburn people sell us a car outright and drive home in the one they already own.

Coming Down From Auburn
The Route
South out of Auburn on SR-167 or East Valley Highway, through Pacific and Sumner, into Puyallup. About 10 miles to 101 Valley Ave NW. SR-167 is quicker when clear. East Valley Highway is the better call at rush hour, since it does not carry the freight traffic.
In the Showroom
Look around at your own pace. If you want to sit in a Pathfinder and an Armada back to back before you commit to the bigger one, say so and someone will pull both out.
Service
Factory-trained Nissan technicians and genuine Nissan parts. At ten miles, dropping the car off before work is a real option. Book a service appointment or call (253) 444-6740.

Questions From Auburn Shoppers
Including one we should not have to answer, but the old version of this page made necessary.
How far is Bill Korum's Puyallup Nissan from Auburn, WA?
About 10 miles, and under 20 minutes most of the day. Auburn and Puyallup sit in the same valley, so the trip stays on the flat the whole way. It is the shortest drive of any of the cities we write pages for.
What is the simplest route from Auburn to the dealership?
Head south out of Auburn on either SR-167 or East Valley Highway and stay in the valley through Pacific and Sumner into Puyallup. The destination is 101 Valley Ave NW. SR-167 is faster when it is clear, and East Valley Highway is the better bet at rush hour because it does not carry the freight traffic.
Which Nissan handles the run out to Crystal Mountain and Chinook Pass?
The Pathfinder, and it is not close. SR-164 out of Auburn toward Enumclaw and then up to Crystal Mountain is a real mountain road with real winter conditions, and the Pathfinder combines three rows with all-wheel drive and a proper tow rating. The Rogue with all-wheel drive covers the same road for a smaller household.
Is the Nissan Rogue a sedan?
No. The Rogue is a compact crossover SUV with five seats and a liftgate. If you want a Nissan sedan, that is the Sentra or the Altima. It is worth being clear about because the Rogue is the most cross-shopped vehicle in the lineup and people arrive expecting the wrong body style.
Do you get a lot of Auburn customers?
Yes, more than from any other city outside Puyallup itself, and the reason is simply the distance. Auburn is the closest large town down the valley. A lot of those customers come for service first and buy from us later, which is the order we would pick if we were choosing.
Can I schedule Nissan service in Puyallup from Auburn?
Yes. Appointments book online, and the service department runs factory-trained Nissan technicians with genuine Nissan parts. At ten miles, dropping the car off and coming back for it is a genuinely reasonable thing to do rather than a whole afternoon. The service line is (253) 444-6740.
Do you take trade-ins from Auburn, or buy cars outright?
Both. Bring the vehicle in for an appraisal whether or not you are buying something from us. You do not have to be trading toward a new Nissan to get a number on your current car.
What can Auburn buyers do about financing before they come down?
Start the credit application online. The finance team works with a range of lenders and credit situations, and arriving with the application already submitted means the conversation starts with real options rather than a blank form.
What does Nissan Certified Pre-Owned mean, and is it worth it?
A Nissan Certified Pre-Owned car has passed a 167-point inspection and comes with documented history. It is worth it when you want a used car but not a used car's uncertainty. It costs more than an equivalent plain used unit, and not every car qualifies, since Nissan sets age and mileage limits. Ask which cars on the lot are certified when you call.
Are there pages for other nearby cities?
Yes. Kent sits just north of Auburn on the same SR-167 corridor and has its own page, and Tacoma buyers coming east on WA-512 have one as well.
Fuel economy figures are EPA estimates and your actual mileage will vary. Compare models directly at fueleconomy.gov, or read crash-test results at the IIHS.
