  Hello ******,

  Thank you for supplying additional needed information. ******* from our **************************** attempted to reach out to you but left a voicemail providing her contact.

  I did perform a quick review of your vehicle and the history of concerns from the past.

I will have a member of our team reach out to **** at *********** Mobility to gather additional information so we can assist as needed.

  A handicap accessible vehicle is essential for transporting my 6 year old daughter.

  Thank you,

  tly took it in for an appraisal and it has depreciated over $36,000 in less than 3 years. Now that it is out of warranty I cannot claim lemon law, I cannot pay for the countless repairs, and it's worth a fraction of what it would cost to replace it. VMI needs to be held accountable. I am not the first ****** to have issues with this company.

  Hello,

  We have been working with ****** ******* on solutions to the challenges she has experienced with her current ****** Sienna. After extensive discussions we have agreed upon providing a replacement vehicle which she assisted in choosing, which is a 2023 ***** Odyssey with a VMI conversion. This agreement included a renewal of the 3year / ******mile conversion warranty, and a participation of $6,000.00 for this transaction. The agreement also included the understanding the returned product (MS013980, 2021 ****** Sienna) would be in good overall condition, except normal wear and tear, and specific items Ms. ******* called out as current challenges. Vantage Mobility will be utilizing AMS Vans to complete the transaction, including the delivery of the new van and will pick up the current van.

  We recently purchsed a fleet of (20) VMI wheelchair accessible vans and have multiple warranty claims/disputes. After countless attempts, we still cannot get an answer or a resolution from VMI. The customer service has been extemely concerning for a B2B and B2C business that provides a product for those in need. I would like to speak with someone at VMI to help with our ongoing situation.

  Dear **************,

  Very sorry to hear about the challenges you have experienced with our Vantage Mobility product. I attempted to contact but I left you a detailed message with my contact information. If you could please provide me with the vehicle VIN# so I can review the history and get a better understanding of the concerns. Once I have reviewed the information and history, I will circle back with you so we can discuss further and hopefully put together a game plan to move forward.

   Hello, my VIN is ***************** and I purchased it from Total Mobility Services in *********, **.  The dealer did address several issues such as the battery cooling retrofit, and exhaust issues, however, the hybrid battery seems to have been damaged as a result of the airflow issue.  I can only get about 24mpg on average (it is supposed to be close to 35).  I also have an issue with the sliding door closing on people entering the car right after opening, which the dealer has been unable to address.  I can be contacted at ************.

   

  Thank you
  

  uately sized cooling vent for the high voltage battery. After multiple calls to the dealer and VMI directly, I have been told that a fix will be forthcoming. It has been several months since then. The vehicle not only displays a warning, but we are getting 23 mpg (instead of the 35mpg advertised by VMI) and some functions such as the power outlets work unreliably, most likely due to battery degradation/overheating. We have also had multiple issues with quality associated with the conversion, such as horrible rattles from the exhaust system due to shoddy workmanship and issues with interior lights burning out.

  Dear *********************************,

  I do apologize for the lack of response from Vantage Mobility, this was not intentional, just missed. 

  After carefully reviewing your message regarding the challenges you and your family have experienced with our ****** Sienna Hybrid it is clear that there are items that need to be addressed. The ****** Sienna Hybrid was a new launch for us in mid year 2021, but over time with feedback from dealers and end users such as yourself we have incorporated improvements and enhancements into our current production. Based off your feedback and I am very confident we can address your concerns and update your ****** with some current level ********************* and processes. 

  If you could please supply me with a VIN# (Vehicle Identification Number) and the name of your selling dealer I will have my warranty team work with this selling dealer to resolve your current concerns and provide you with the product you expected during this purchase.

  Sincerely,

  ********************

  Director, ***************** and Warranty

  

  Business Response

  Date: 01/26/2024

  Hello ******,

  Thank you for the response and the additional information. After reviewing the repair history with Total Mobility Services, it does appear that many of the enhancements I spoke about have already been completed. Your questions regarding the hybrid battery cooling enhancements and the concern with the battery depletion, our engineering team has carefully evaluated the entire hybrid system including the battery and are confident there is no effect on durability. With that said, the factory coverage for the hybrid battery is 10 years or ******* miles. Vantage Mobility will back this warranty to ensure confidence to our end users. 

  Your question regarding fuel economy, ****** North America does indeed advertise an EPA-estimated 36 MPG for the *** version and 35 MPG for the *** version which I show you have. This estimated value is for a stock unconverted ****** Sienna Hybrid. With the addition of a Vantage Mobility conversion there is additional weight added due to the structure, plus additional factors such as raised center of gravity and reduction of aero dynamics created by the modifications. Because of these factors fuel economy will be reduced. However, the ****** Sienna Hybrid is still by far the most fuel-efficient mobility vehicle that Vantage Mobility offers.

  Your final mention was regarding a concern sliding door. Again, I checked our warranty history and did not see any claims on this concern. I will reach out to the Total Mobility Services team to gather additional information. I will follow up with you after speaking with Total Mobility Services so we can discuss any other concerns and/or challenges and then put together a plan as needed to address.

  Thank you, and I will speak with you soon.

  Sincerely,
