thank you Unfortunately, yes. I had to have the motors replaced twice, they had some kind of oil leak. When they were replaced, the new ones had the same problem. It had a tilt seating system which stopped working, had to have some kind of sensor replaced. The seating system was from a different company (motion concepts). When I had to have the batteries replaced, the seating system got in the way of the panels that cover the rear battery. It took a wheelchair technician a whole day to replace the batteries, he was on the phone with motion concepts and pride mobility the whole time. This may not have happened if the seating system had been from Pride. I believe pride now has their own seating system.

They may have improved the suspension system since then, don't know. I now have a Permobil, like it a lot better.

Are they made for driving adaptations on the bottom? Dianna
