From Rich Klaben to Scott Burghardt, to Christine Klaben, Angela, Jenn, Steve - Best customer service ever. Always respected my wishes and spoke to me, not at me. The entire sales force feels like a family t Angela, Jenn, Steve - Best customer service ever. Always respected my wishes and spoke to me, not at me. The entire sales force feels like a family to me and that’s why I’ll always return to Klaben. I have to say Scott Burghardt is a real professional even though I tried throwing him off his game at times, (Jokingly of course) he remained vigilant, courteous and professional. Thanks to David Klaben for recommending him to me. I highly recommend Klaben for their atmosphere of respect for their customers and themselves. Can’t leave out the Service department Tom Alcorn and Sean are top notch Managers who I enjoy thoroughly in our conversations. They really go above and beyond to make my service appointments go smoothly. From Mario, to Kim, Mona, Mike and all the rest of their team - Congratulations ! Always remember, like I did with Nestle “Be consistent and fair with whoever you come into contact with” That mindset is what taught me that people -everything, whether it’s business, manufacturing or customer service - A company is only as good as the people who work there. Treat them with respect and it will come back to you two fold. Thanks for all your efforts as I truly appreciate you all. John and Becky Trigilio More

When you pull up in a 13 year old Honda Fit to a Lincoln dealership, you might wonder if you’ll get treated differently. That was NOT the case at Klaben. Not only did they not judge me, they made me feel dealership, you might wonder if you’ll get treated differently. That was NOT the case at Klaben. Not only did they not judge me, they made me feel just as important as any customer. My salesman, Scott, was awesome. He listened to what I wanted, had me test drive a couple options. And although I didn’t buy that first day, Scott continued to search to find a vehicle that was perfect for me, in the price range I was hoping for. Plus, huge kudos to Klaben for not adding money to their MSRP for environments factors. Thanks for being awesome and not judging a book by its cover! More

I cannot say enough goods things about this dealership. I am 64 and have bought many cars over the years.

I hated walking into any dealership as a single woman because I was always treated like an inexperienced car buyer. Buying a car was not a good experience. Now, I believe I have found the best car buying experience ever at Klaben in Kent, Ohio. They do not jack up prices, they have availability of cars, the nicest and knowledgeable sales specialists, plus I do not have to put money down to hold a car or special order. OMG, I would definitely check out this dealership for Fords, Lincoln and used vehicles. More
