Your questions about mobility scooter servicing answered
Why do I need to have my mobility scooter serviced?
A mobility scooter has several moving parts, which must be checked and maintained to ensure your vehicle operates in good working order.
Doing so will also help to ensure a comfortable driving experience and the longevity of your machine.
Regular servicing provides peace of mind that your scooter has been thoroughly checked by a trained engineer. To that end, you don't need to worry about unexpected issues with safety or reliability.
Finally, servicing helps to spot any minor issues - wear and tear or corrosion - early on. They can be fixed straight away, often at a cheaper rate than if the issue was left to worsen over time.
How often should I service my mobility scooter?
Generally speaking, mobility scooters that are used daily should be serviced once a year.
However, if your scooter only has occasional use, this could be stretched out to once every 18 months to three years.
The frequency of servicing could be dictated by your vehicle's warranty or your insurance provider. Regular servicing could be a prerequisite for maintaining your warranty or the validity of your insurance policy. Check your manufacturer's manual and your insurance policy to be sure.
