I had a recall on my Ford and Joe was great to work with. He made sure to keep me up to date and made sure I had a loaner car when mine was in the shop. More

Klaben Ford Lincoln responded

Matt, Thank you for taking the time to post your review regarding your recent experience here at Klaben. We ask for feedback because it means a great deal to the entire Klaben Team. We read and value honest feedback that tells us how we are doing when it comes to meeting and exceeding the expectations of our customers. As I read your detailed comments, I became more and more frustrated and embarrassed knowing this is the way we made you feel and the impression we left you with. It was a pleasure meeting you over the phone today. Your additional time, valuable insight and kind words about Shelby were greatly appreciated and gave additional clarity in a few areas. Putting myself in your position, I would feel the same way. I empathize with your frustration, disappointment, and lost confidence and truly appreciate your accepting my apology. Our people are our greatest resource and without them we cannot do what we do every day. It is my responsibility to then take this and use it internally for coaching and counselling. Our culture is all about doing what's right for our customers and raising our hand if we make a mistake, or in this case more than one. We appreciate your business, but more important to us is the relationship we stand to gain and then consistently maintain based on your trust and confidence every aspect of our customer first business model. As we discussed I look forward to working with you in this upcoming visit and having the opportunity to make right a situation we completely and clearly created. Thank you again for your feedback.
