It happened in the 11000 block of North Sepulveda Boulevard, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.
The Toyota RAV4 drove through the customer waiting area of the dealership in the service building.
A man named Jose told KNX News' Pete Demetrious he was within feet of being hit.
"The door was 10 feet away," he said.
A woman "who was in or near the enclosed driveway" was trapped under the car before bystanders quickly freed her. Fire officials said an off-duty nurse performed CPR on the woman.
The woman was taken to the hospital where police said she died.
Two male employees were hospitalized with non-life threatening injuries. One of them had a head wound, LAFD said.
The driver declined ambulance transportation and remained at the scene.
Cal-OSHA may be called to investigate.
