My husband and I have been dealing with Joe Klaben for many yrs. He's very trustworthy reliable and friendly. He has never given us a bad car or a bad deal. If we have problems he fixes it. Best used car dealer in Akron in our eyes.
There is so much I want to say about the owner, Joe Klaben and His business Klaben Motor Sales but in an attempt to keep this readable and not to lengthy I'll try to sum up my many deals with him. I've been a customer of Klaben Motors for 2.5 yrs now. I love cars and have purchased and traded several cars from Joe. This is not your typical dealership that will try to sell you your own shirt. Joe is honest, he respects and truly cares for people. He puts customers in quality cars and he truly doesn't live for one deal. I would say I'm a complicated case as I buy and trade cars more than the average buyer. Joe is an outside the box thinker. He sees the future deals and the value in a long term customer and he will do what it takes to make them happy. Without to much detail Joe has helped me and my family more than any car dealership would or will ever and probably more than most family members. I have a lot of respect for the way Joe conducts business. God has blessed Joe with the gift of transportation and he continues to pass that on and bless others like me. I drive 3.5 hours for a reason. It's worth it. Take the time to stop by and get to know Joe. Build the relationship and he will treat you right.
It had been a year or so since I purchased a car from Joe and wanted to stop by and offer my thanks and opinion about the dealership. First I mu I say that I had been to over 10 dealerships and no one would or could help me. I spent a while day a one dealership trying to get a deal done and actually had another dealership sale the car I had already placed my money down on. The amount of time and energy not to mention all the ininquiries ( 50) that was placed on my report made things that much more difficult to get financing. Not for Joe! I made a call and he said within a 30min he would have no problem getting me the car I wanted. He actually sent the car to my house to pick me up and I was in and out of his dealership in no time once I arrived. Joe made the whole car buying experience a joy. Now that my credit is in the 700s I know I can get financing just about anywhere however, I will always give Joe the opportunity to win my business again with his world class service. The X Type 02 Jaguar is still riding great and I still get compliments!
Joe bent over backwards to make my deal for a TOYOTA RAV/4 the best deal possible. No pressure. But gave huge attention to the little things. Knew I wanted an XM radio. Had one installed. Filled the gas tank to the top. Had an outstanding recall taken care of. Made an extra key. Car was immaculate... and gave me a very good price on TWO trade-ins. A credit to his grandfather's name.
We have purchased 5 vehicles from Joe Klaben. All 5 deals were handled swiftly and smoothly. The latest vehicle purchased was a 2010 SS Camaro that I had my eyes on since it parked on his lot. Having other dealerships take credit applications, call us in, to only waste our time, and crush our dream of owning one of these iconic cars, Joe made happen in one day. I witnessed in person a buyer who called Joe that was having buyer remorse. Joe told her flat out that she was not having that and to bring the car back to be analyzed to find the problem, and he said he would stand 100% behind her vehicle. To me that meant a lot, and it wasn't any of my business. To us, Klaben Motor Sales is what car buying should be about.. us, the customer, not just another sale. Thank you so much Joe, for everything you've done for us.
I seen a Ford Ranger on Cars.com that was posted by Klaben Motors and it looked to be exactly what I'd been searching for. I contacted Joe to schedule a look at the truck and he was quick to respond. As soon as I seen it I knew i wanted it. Joe was kind enough to work with me with my financial situation and made the buying process smooth and clean. Much thanks to Klaben Motors!
Joe Klaben w,dealer that would help me and I went to several dealerships in Akron, Cuyahoga Falls,Tallmadge and and Massillon OHIO . Again I thank him for his great customer service that I recieved. Ray G Rossi`
I came up from Pittsburgh to look at a vehicle. The owner was out of town but the man who was put in charge was very pleasant. The car did have a burnt out headlight that we were unable to fix before leaving and did need a few things to become Pennsylvania legal (I expected that), but overall I had a very nice experience. I visited 3 other car dealerships in ohio and every person was rude and did not seem to care if i bought the car or not; this was not the case here. I would recommend going here
My husband and I would like to thank Joe Klaben on helping us to purchase our vehicle given the circumstances we had to encounter. First, we live out of state in Missouri and located our dream car on cars.com. Not only did Mr. Klaben have patience with us, he was friendly and willing to put the car on hold for us until we were able to purchase it - about 2 weeks. He even met my husband at the airport when he traveled to pick it up! We LOVE this car and are very pleased with this dealership. We recommend you buy your next vehicle here -- regardless of where you live in the US.
First of all let me start by explaining that I personally have worked as a salesman at a dealer and know what car sales are all about. With that being said, this is a great dealer, upfront honest business with exceptional customer service skills. I was lucky enough to purchase my dream car from the owner, Joe. He was honest and helped me drive away happy. I would recommend this deal to anyone wanting honest hassle free service.
I have always wanted a classic car and I was browsing the internet and came across this beautiful old school, muscle car for sale at Kalben Motors. I called them up on a Saturday afternoon to inquire about the car and unfortunately they had just taken it to the auction, but Joe said that he would call me back if the car didn't sale. I got a message Monday afternoon stating that the car was back on the lot. I went up there right after work just wanting to take a test drive, but after cruising around in the car for about an hour and a half, I knew that I had to have this car. Joe and I neogiated a good price and I drove the car off the lot that night. Even though I bought the car "as is" Joe agreed to fix a minor issue with the interior lights and windshield wipers. I am extremely pleased with my 71 Skylark and every time I take it out for a spin, I'm always getting compliments on the car and people always ask if they can buy it off of me. I always say No way buddy, you have to get your own. I would definitetly recomment this dealership if you're looking to buy a car
Joe Klaben provided a good experience for my husband and I when we were looking for a used car. We found a car that was on his lot by lookin online, we emailed him about it, and he responded quickly to us. He gave us a good trade in price for our old car, and was very accomidating when it came to us taking the newly bought car off the lot and coming back to leave our old trade in car. The place is "no frills" but that was fine with us, we just wanted a decent car for a reasonable price. We could recommend the place and would go back in the future.
I have bought from Joe Klaben & Klaben Motor Sales before, and had another very good experience when I bought my recent car! I admit, I was looking at some other cars online, just to see what was available, but in the back of my mind, I knew I wanted to buy from Joe & Klaben. He has a lot of very nice cars to choose from, very low prices when comparing to other dealers, and so many 5 STAR Reviews with great compliments that were similar to my previous buy from him. Joe really went out of his way to help me get the right car & to get financed. I could tell he really cared about me, it wasn't just another sale & I like that! I already recommended him to my neighbor who is currently looking for a car, & wanted to recommend him to other online car shoppers...this is truly a 5 STAR Dealer :) Thanks Joe & Klaben Motor Sales!!
Joe Klaben helped my wife and I buy a good car. He was kind, patient, and professional. We highly recommend anyone to see him about buying a car. Thanks Joe, and your staff as well!
Joe came in and sold me a beautiful car. The process was simple and easy.
We had a very good experience buying a 2004 Forester. The dealer did a nice job on repairs to the car to make it safe and reliable
TO ANYONE LOOKING AT THE 2006 CROSSFIRE...IT WAS MY BABY FOR 28 MONTHS, CARED FOR LIKE NO OTHER CAR I EVER HAD. BROKE MY HEART TO TRADE IT IN, BUT JOE KLABEN TREATED ME, AND MY CAR, WITH TOTAL RESPECT. I NEEDED A CAR WITH AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION BECAUSE OF A KNEE ISSUE. JOE HAD THE PERFECT MUSTANG GT FOR ME. THIS CROSSFIRE IS IMMACULATE, AND HAS $1100.00 WORTH OF NEW TIRES....YOU WILL ENJOY IT AS MUCH AS I DID...ITS WELL WORTH THE PRICE, AND THEN SOME...DANNY BROWN, FROM CARNEGIE, PA.......YES, I DROVE 2 HOURS TO GET MY MUSTANG FROM JOE....WORTH EVERY MILE, AND MINUTE.....DAN
OK, I HAVE BOUGHT MANY CARS OVER THE YEARS, LET ME TELL YOU, JOE WENT ABOVE, AND BEYOND ANY "MAJOR" CAR DEALERSHIPS. HE SOUGHT OUT CREDITORS, WHO FOUND OUT, THAT I DO HAVE A GOOD CREDIT SCORE. HE ALSO GAVE ME A GREAT TRADE IN PRICE, SIGHT UNSEEN, FOR MY CROSSFIRE. WHEN I GOT THERE, AND ITS A 2 HOUR DRIVE, THE MUSTANG NEEDED SOME LIGHT BULBS....WELL, HE NOT ONLY HAD THAT TAKEN CARE OF, BUT, HE ALSO PUT 4 BRAND NEW TIRES ON THIS CAR, AND ONLY ADDED $200 TO MY PRICE....TRUST ME, THAT IS A $700 SET OF TIRES....JOE IS A CAR DEALER THAT IS WORTH LOOKING INTO. IF YOU WANT A USED CAR, IN PRISTINE CONDITION, AND A DEALER THAT CARES, GO HERE....I WAS TREATED WITH TOTAL RESPECT, AND, I WILL RECOMMEND HIM TO ANY, AND ALL FRIENDS....THANKS, JOE.....YOU ARE NOW THE ONLY PERSON I WILL EVER BUY FROM.....DANNY BROWN, CARNEGIE, PA.
Joe Klaben...my hat's off to you. You represented this vehicle with 100% honesty. Being some 450 miles away, of course I was a bit apprehensive buying a car sight unseen, but I took Joe at his word that the vehicle I was interested in was as good as he said it was. Joe went out of his way to assist me, even as far as having one of his employees come to the airport in Akron to pick me up. The car handled beautifully on the 8 hour drive Back to Nashville. I would recommend Joe and his dealership to anyone looking for an honest deal along with great customer service. Joe....if you keep this up...you are gonna give Used Car Salesmen a "Good Name"
This was my 2nd time working
Just completed my second purchase from Klaben Motors and I was just as impressed as my last purchase. After having bought cars from several different dealerships in the area, (and having worked at a local dealership as well), this is by far the best experience I've had.
I was looking for a certain type vehicle, with a certain amount of miles,at a specific price point. Mission accomplished. Joe and his staff are concerned with customer satifaction, (which is hard to find these days). The staff is informed and friendly. The buying process was extremely stress-free. I have purchased several vehicles from Klaben in the past and I can't see me ever going anywhere else. Thanks again, Tom
I have bought many used vehicles out of state and either flown or drove to pick them up. All of those experiences turned out to be nightmares until I met Joe Klaben of Klaben Motors. This young man was on vacation when I called about the car he was advertising on cars.com, so I spoke to his father. But being the personable type of man he is, Joe called me himself and we agreed upon the numbers over the phone. I figured the car would have some issues not seen in the photos, but this wasn't the case, not with Klaben Motors! I drove six hours to get my 2003 Lexus GS300 with 31K one owner miles on it, and felt like a King, when I left this dealership! Yes, I was treated THAT good! Joe is a very down to earth no nonsense businessman that takes care of his customers AND his staff, and you can tell by the way they all worked together during my deal, that they are a happy bunch of people working in harmony so customers walk away with a smile. Small dealership with BIG results....that best describes Klaben Motors. Thanks again, Joe, for being the best at what you do! I love my Lexus!
Overall had a good experience with the Klaben team. They were patient and attentive with me as I searched for a dependable and affordable used vehicle. Will definitely keep an eye on their inventory for the next time I am ready to purchase another used vehicle
I really needed a dependable car, & heard some great things about Klaben Motor Sales! Looked them up online & saw many nice cars I liked. Didn't even call, I just drove over & Joe helped me find the perfect car for me, a Honda Civic, at a very good price! The whole experience was great, so I wanted to let others know! Thanks Joe & Klaben Motor Sales! Laura L / Akron, OH
great customer service the dealer made my wife and I very comfortable with the whole process of buying a used car for my son.
I and my family have purchased several cars from here. The sales staff is friendly and easy to work with. We have also had repairs done here. Very professional, knowledgeable and reasonable. What a great shopping experience.
At one time I sold new and used high-line luxury automobiles, so I feel more than qualified to write a fair and honest review about a personal car buying experience. I looked all over the country for a great low mileage used car and ironically ended up at Klaben Auto Sales just 20 minutes from my home. Joe Klaben, who sold me my car, came across as a no nonsense business owner that just wanted to make the customer happy and make a little money on his cars. I found nothing wrong with that! He has a small and friendly staff that made sure that I was taken care of. Case in point: I asked for a cup a coffee and his mechanic (the friendliest I've ever come across) personally brought me up a fresh cup from the back and looked happy to do so. Like that's something you see everyday? For my 2 cents: If you're looking for a newer low mileage used car that's INCREDIBLY priced and you'll be treated fairly...check out their inventory and give Joe Klaben a call.
I will send anyone I know to this dealer. Honest, fair, nice people to do business with, and I will come back.
I was very satisfied with this dealer. I have bought from him the past and will continue to buy from him in the future.

Just purchased a new Ford Fusion Sport from this dealer on 5/28. I highly recommend this dealer. My buying experience was the best I have ever had. They even were able to beat my original financing. I walked off the lot that day with my brand new car. JT was my salesman and he was GREAT!
