I started out as a porter then a Service Advisor, and Service Director at Cleveland area Ford/Lincoln dealer. My wife and children have been my motivation and inspiration, I am blessed. I have definitely realized what it means to work in an organization completely committed to and driven by a "customer first" culture/business model. Our team is just that and always working to get better together every day. Thank you in advance for taking the time to provide your feedback.

It is my responsibility to take this and use it to address internally through coaching and counselling with our team. It is important to us that we have the opportunity to restore your confidence in us and make right a situation we clearly created.

Your loyalty over the years is definitely respected and appreciated. We appreciate the business but more important to us are the relationships we have the opportunity to gain an maintain based on trust and confidence. We clearly left you in a position to question the value and benefits received during you recent visit. After reading your comments again and putting myself in your shoes it is evident we did not do well explaining the procedure used in repairing your brake concern. I was unable to reach you by phone, text, or email and look forward to the opportunity to speak with you at your convenience, gain additional insight, and resolve your concern. Thank you again for your honest and candid feedback. I look forward to speaking with you soon. I and the entire Klaben team remain at your service.

Thank for reaching out to my cell and allowing for a few more minutes of your time to be spent bringing clarity to the situation. It was an excellent experience for me as I reflected on your additional insight and clearly realized where we had let you down in thoroughly explaining what we were charging you for. This is one of the most important steps in our process when presenting estimates in making sure we are letting our guests know the value and the benefits of their investment. It was a great pleasure to meet you in person, have the opportunity to shake your hand, and personally thank you for your feedback and candid comments. We appreciate the opportunity you gave us to fully restore your confidence in us. Thank you again. I and the entire Klaben team remain at your service. Sean Bradford - sbradford@klaben.com

I have been a value customer for 38 yrs.. I can understand if it was brake lining bad caliper but it was a washer.And I saw where it was leaking at the bolt which threads into the caliper.just thought I was kind of steep price for just a washer and 13.00 for a washer.. that’s like a 10 min fix.. I know you charge labor fees but that is a little much I think..
