Major Milestones for Mark’s Japanese European Auto

In 1991, when Mark Wagner opened the first Bellevue Transmission in Bellevue, Washington, there was no expectation that the business would grow as rapidly as it did. After doubling their business in the first three years, Mark’s Japanese European Auto opened a second location in Kirkland, Washington in 1995. In 1997, another location was added to the network in Redmond, Washington. By 2000, Mark’s Japanese European Auto became a leading resource for specialized transmission repairs in the area! The fourth location on the Greater Eastside opened in Issaquah, Washington in 2008.
