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.

They impressed me wit Over the last couple of days, I have had the pleasure of working with Richard Klaben and Chris Volk of Klaben Ford in Kent, OH. They impressed me with the timely response to my questions and going above an beyond to earn my business. As a consequence, my wife and I drove 3.5 hours to get to their dealership. Upon our arrival they both came out of the office to personally greet us on the lot and made every effort to ensure our questions were answered. The whole sales process was very efficient and a great overall experience. Hat's off to Rich and Team! Kelly Morehead More

The Klaban Dealership is outstanding! At my recent visit to the Klaban Dealership I was, as always, treated with respect and courteously. Dan Peters has been out family "car guy" for over At my recent visit to the Klaban Dealership I was, as always, treated with respect and courteously. Dan Peters has been out family "car guy" for over twenty years. I never get the pressured feeling that I had gotten from car salesmen since I met Dan. A salesman opened the door or me as I arrived and asked what he could do to help me. He found Dan for me and brought me a bottle of water. All the employees I came in contact were smiling and so were the customers. And Cristine in finance was great explaining all the financial papers I was signing. I will also make Klaban my car dealership. More
