USED WHEELCHAIR VANS FOR SALE

Do Wheelchair Van Conversions Negate the Manufacturer Warranty?

Answer:

No. The conversion of a van, truck, or SUV into a wheelchair-accessible vehicle does not change the typical warranty. That being said, there may be some vehicles in our inventory that are out of warranty due to age, mileage, or extreme modifications.  For these vehicles, we have warranty options available (for engine, transmission, mobility packages, etc.) which you can learn more about here.

Will Medicare Pay For My Wheelchair Van?

Answer:

Medicare Part B is the section of Medicare that might cover a used wheelchair van, but only because it provides coverage of some durable medical equipment (DME). Unfortunately, however, this is not typically an expense that is covered by Medicare. To learn more about your question visit Medicare.gov website for current information and coverage.

Should I Buy a Side-Entry or Rear-Entry Wheelchair Van?

Answer:

You should select the wheelchair van that best suits your unique mobility needs, here are some considerations –

It’s easier to pick up or drop off a passenger in a wheelchair curbside with a side-entry wheelchair van. If the van has a ramp for exit and entry, an accessible parking space is ideal to accommodate the extra width needed to enter and exit the wheelchair van. Side-entry handicap vans typically have seats that can be removed as needed. Side-entry vans allow the wheelchair user to have more options, they can ride as a passenger or drive. Side-entry wheelchair vehicles are a good choice for wheelchair users who want to be in the driver’s seat.

Rear-Entry: Rear entry wheelchair vans feature a lowered area in the rear to accommodate the wheelchair and a foldout ramp. The middle seats can remain unmodified and allow for seating for other passengers. Rear-entry wheelchair vans are typically less expensive than side-entry wheelchair vans. With a rear-entry wheelchair van, the option to drive from your wheelchair does not exist. Parking on a hill is more challenging, as is parallel parking since you need extra room in the rear for the wheelchair user to be able to enter and exit the vehicle.
