    Tristen ** was a great help in my understanding of the process and what my purchase options were with respect to dealers in my vicinity. She was exceptionally responsive, empathetic and reassuring. She is a great asset to your company. With her help I was able to establish realistic expectations and have a better understanding of my options.

    HONDA Odyssey Adaptation. The only issue is the seat belt if you want to position the wheelchair in the second row. It’s not long enough to secure the passenger. Other than that issue, RKJ I am very happy with the conversion and would recommend your company without hesitation.

    Julia,

    Thank you for the great review! We are glad to hear that you are happy with your conversion. When it comes to the seat belts on our conversion we do make seat belt extenders that you can order at your local mobility dealer to make it reach farther.

    Although the repair took around two months (which became challenging), I was wholly satisfied with the support we received from BA (Dylan). Two problems I saw; in 2016, two authorized service businesses both failed to check further about the problem which turned out to be a recall item. When I have my other cars serviced at their respective dealers, this is automatically checked first thing. Then, I would have thought, it being a recall item, a protocol would have been in place to fix it. No one seemed to know exactly what to do and it took 1 1/2 months to find someone to fix it. That all being said, job well done and we're happy to have the van back.

    I requested a little more Technical info on my Vangater II lifter that I purchase new some time ago. I frankly was not going to call because I thought it would only get very limited info. I was wrong and have to thank Braun for the customer service I was provided by a Mrs. Carrie ** and the two people that recommended me to call. I am planning to purchase my 3rd handicap van soon and Braun will be on my list.

    Very good job on our Chrysler Pacifica. Love the infloor ramp. Much better than our foldout ramp in the three prior Braun vans we have owned. The foldout foot bench for the rear seat is great for passengers. Van is much quieter than our previous vans. No rattles.

    Had an unusual loss of a part on our new Braun Conversion Van. The support from dealer all the way up to the factory level has been fantastic. This is our third Braun conversion van and we continue to be pleased with the vehicle and help that we have received resolving this particular issue. Thank you to MobilityWorks (Dave & Jim), and Braun (Terri & Carrie) for your diligence.

    I purchased my van thru FastServ Medical West Monroe, LA. Chris Mayfield. Chris and her staff are excellent dealer to do business with. I called and made and appointment to fix recall and it was completed with an hour and half. This dealer goes out of their way to make sure everything is taken care of to your satisfaction. I would give them six stars.

    We have bought other vehicles but found BraunAbility to be the most reliable on the market. Our challenge is not with BraunAbility it is with the company we bought the Van from. In the future we will still buy a BraunAbility vehicle just from a different sales organization.

    The big surprise came at the credit union. The van is financed as a USED vehicle. After all is said and done I didn't get the dealer incentives and ended up paying above Blue Book value. I can overlook some of the rattles and vibrations, but I feel that there must be a way to come up with competitive pricing for the van.

    I had 2 issues with my 2014 Toyota Siena Braun Ramp Van. The problems were under vehicle corrosion which I and Main Mobility agreed to be premature and a flaw design. Said vehicle has low mileage and I take exceptional care of it. The vehicle had a rust preventative treatment at time of new purchase. I reached out to Braun and spoke to Dylan ** whom made arrangements with Main Mobility in Clarence NY to Pay for repairs. Main Mobility did an excellent job and I am very happy that Braun did the right thing covering the cost of repairs. This is my second Toyota Braun Ramp Van.

Chris **. in Pensacola, Florida did an excellent job as my Salesman to train and sell me my disability van. I would recommend this company to any of my Friends and Family.

    Due to my second shoulder surgery, my doctor told me I had to change the way I load myself and my chair. I have never been a "van guy" and have always just made do with two door, long doored cars, such as the Chevrolet Monte Carlo and the Ford Thuderbird. With the help of the Louisiana Rehabilitation Services, I was able to purchase the MXV and it has truly changed how much I go and where. Just last week, we had terrible storms come through our parish (county to y'all). With my MXV, I was able to go the scenes of a lot of the damage and even gave an interbiew from the vehicle. The only real complaint I have is the cup holders are not deep enough. Otherwise, this is a fantastic vehicle that I highly recommend!

    Terri at BraunAbility is awesome! I requested an owner's manual for a used older "Crow" lift that my mother in law purchased a used conversion van. Mom needed my help but I am four hours away and couldn't even go look at it. Based on Mom's description, I knew it needed some basic maintenance but there weren't any manuals in the van so I went to the Braunability website and filled out the online help request. That was on a Sunday night. At 08:08 Monday morning I had an email from Terri offering help and needing some details like model and serial numbers. Fortunately I was able to get a photo of the Crow Manufacturer Plate. Then in less than 30 minutes, Terri answered all my questions AND sent all the manuals I needed. Thank you!
