General Sales Manager
Klaben Ford Lincoln
1089 West Main Street
Kent, OH 44240
I started working at Klaben when I was 16 years old, answering phones and filing paperwork. Throughout my high school and college years, I took on various roles at the dealership which helped to expand my knowledge and understanding of the business. I started working in the Finance Department at the age of 23, while completing my MBA at the University of Akron. I had a strong curiosity and interest in Finance, mostly because of my love for working with people and numbers. I worked as a Finance Manager for 19 years, and transitioned to the role of Sales Manager in August 2021. I am proud to work for a company that grounds itself in customer loyalty and satisfaction and have enjoyed the relationships I have built with several of my customers over the years.

Never underestimate how AWESOME a dealer can be! Everytime I need a new car, or service for the one I have I choose KLABEN LINCOLN in Kent, Ohio I had a couple factory issues with my last two Linc Everytime I need a new car, or service for the one I have I choose KLABEN LINCOLN in Kent, Ohio I had a couple factory issues with my last two Lincoln MKZ, one being tires. The low profile tires on new cars has not worn well, and this last new car one of the tires blew out at 20,000 miles. MR. Rich Klaben had roadside assistance handle my mishap within hours, and installed four NEW tires at no cost to myself as his service manager Tom was unavailable and Carl handled the complete process Including loaner car. When I received my car back it was washed and ready to go. MR Klaben took It upon himself to phone me that evening and ask if I was completely satisfied. WHAT A GREAT SERVICE, And SALES team. Like visiting friends when you go for service.. More

Great Experience I bought a 2017 Escape from Matt, Tim, and Andy in August of 2017. They are personable, down to earth, and willing to work with you. Sadly my wife g I bought a 2017 Escape from Matt, Tim, and Andy in August of 2017. They are personable, down to earth, and willing to work with you. Sadly my wife got into an accident and the brand new car was totaled. I contacted Matt and he got my wife into a new 2018 Escape. Matt, Andy, and Christine made the experience as stress free as possible. I highly recommend everyone I dealt with if you're looking to buy a new car. More

I was feeling the loss of my 2010 that was totaled in an accident several weeks prior. Tyler was sensitive and understanding and found a car the same color that I liked even more than my old one. Also, he was not pushy but patient, giving me a chance to make up my mind. He worked with me on the price and we closed everything quickly and to everyone's satisfaction. Since then he has followed up by phone to answer any questions I might have. More

Exception... start to finish! I emailed Klaben after finding a vehicle on-line @ Klaben.com I received both a phone call and text message within 10 minutes. I spoke with Matt Moy I emailed Klaben after finding a vehicle on-line @ Klaben.com I received both a phone call and text message within 10 minutes. I spoke with Matt Moyers on the phone, and he (along with Chris Volk) texted me all the information I needed. I arrived at the dealership Saturday afternoon, and both salesmen answered all of my questions. I took the car out for a quick test drive, signed all the paperwork, and finalized pick-up details - all within an hour! When I picked up the car, it was clean and had a full tank of gas! I worked with Christine to sign all the final papers, and she was amazing! After about half an hour, I was driving home in my new car! This was the nest car-buying experience I have ever had. I will definitely buy my next vehicle here as well. Top notch! More
