A Handicap
Accessible Van Dealer with an Outstanding Reputation
There are over one million people in the U.S. using a wheelchair to live fuller,
more normal lives and 12 million more who can’t independently walk 2 city
blocks. Yet, only 180,000 of them use some sort of adaptive vehicle to access
the lifestyle most people take for granted. Why? Because until recently,
disabled consumers looking for customized vehicle modifications and adaptive
devices found only small mom-and-pop shops, many of which offered poor
selection, long waits, poor service and overly inflated prices.
Now, many of these
disappointed consumers are going to MobilityWorks because of the superior
selection, quality and service offered by this rapidly growing network of
handicap accessible van dealers. Led by owners Bill Koeblitz and Taylor Clark,
the company seeks to usher in a new era of larger, well-managed companies that
offer the selection, quality and service previously lacking in the industry.
Says Koeblitz, “I believe disabled people dealing with this industry have put
up with all kinds of stuff they shouldn’t have to put up with, from
incompetence to unscrupulous business practices. It’s a business segment that
hasn’t been well executed. We’re changing that.”
MobilityWorks features
a wide selection of handicap accessible vans which include both mini and
full-sized vans. Modeled after traditional auto dealerships, all MobilityWorks
dealerships feature new handicap vans, used handicap vans, and used handicap
conversion minivans. Each dealership has an onsite service department where all
types of wheelchair vans are serviced.
MobilityWorks is one of
only 30 companies nationally that has passed the rigorous independent inspection
requirements of the National Mobility Equipment Dealers Association and is one
of three companies who have passed Ford Motor’s Quality Program of mobility
adaptation.
