It's 1983 and I'm still in High School. I started working with my Father who was a Used Car Manager for Cobbledick Buick in Shaker Hts as a lot porter. After graduation, I took on a full-time role with the dealership allowing me to work in Service/Parts/Body shop/New & Used Cars. Ultimately began my career in Sales. In 1993 I started at Klaben Ford. I was able to build a strong customer base and moved up to a management role in the leasing department. In 2005 I moved across the street to Klaben Chrysler Jeep Dodge. I found the change exciting that has now led me to be a store manager. I’ve been with Klaben Auto Stores for over 25 years. A family-owned store completely committed to 100% customer satisfaction involved with our local communities, I’ll be here for another 25 years, God willing. I’m blessed to have my wife, our 4 Children, and 4 Grandkids..so far! and a super staff I work with every day. 330-673-3139 ext. 505

Gary was amazing, listening to what we were looking for, showing us plenty of options and letting us take our time in making a decision with no pressure...definitely knows his stuff! Since this was my sons first car purchase Gary made sure he understood every step in the process and went over all the vehicle information and details of the service plan we purchased. Even though they were extremely busy because of the warm weather we were experiencing in February and we had to wait a bit to sign our papers Gary made us feel at home and sat and waited with us...really felt his appreciation and care for his customers and Kim got us in and out quickly while still explaining everything thoroughly and answering all our questions. Will definitely start with Klaben for our next vehicle purchase! More

This was a This is the third new car I have purchased from Klaben Dodge in the last 6 months. This experience , as were the other two, was excellent. This was a special order vehicle and Kerry handled everything from start to finish without a hitch. Steve created a deal that was within the range I wanted to be in and Brian, as usual, handled the financing to perfection. I would recommend the Klaben team to everyone. More

I've known Don for many years and knew that if I contacted him he would understand my situation and do whatever he could to help me to meet my needs, and not put his needs first but mine. When I arrived and was met by Caleb I was elated and from that moment on Don, Caleb, Brian and Steve made the whole process relaxing and provided comfort with this new adventure I was about to embark on. The vehicle is a perfect fit for me and the payment is affordable. They all were sincerely happy for me and that they as a team could help me to ease my fears and ease my concerns! Thank you Team Klaben! More

I worked with Steve Stephens (GM) and Justin Bolen who made the entire process a wonderful experience. They were very informative and worked diligently to accommodate my needs. They made sure that I was well aware of the purchase and lease options I was considering. They gave me paperwork and details to consider for a couple days so that I could make an informed decision. After purchasing, Justin walked me through every step of setting up my new car tailored and customized to my liking. He even followed up with me via text the evening of making my purchase by sending me pictures of me with my new car and wishing me well and thanking me for working with him. The next day he sent me tutorial emails making sure that I was having a seamless transition with the vehicle and new technology I was not accustomed to. I will forever purchase cars from Justin, Steve and the rest of the team at Klaben! More
