Servicing and MOT
Servicing
We’ll cover your regular services and routine repairs, to keep your WAVWheelchair Accessible Vehicle running perfectly. This means the cost of each service and any maintenance repairs due to general wear.
That includes checks on the engine oil and cooling system, windscreen washer fluid, lights, and tyre tread and pressure.
Servicing will either be at set times during your lease agreement or when you’ve driven your WAVWheelchair Accessible Vehicle a certain number of miles.
If you have adaptations fitted in your WAVWheelchair Accessible Vehicle, your installer will let you know if these need regular maintenance. If they do, we’ll cover this too.
MOT
We’ll cover the cost of your MOT tests, to make sure your WAVWheelchair Accessible Vehicle meets the current road safety and environmental standards.
These are every three years, so if you have a three-year lease, your dealer will contact you towards the end of your lease to organise this.
If your lease is longer than three years, you'll need an MOT test when your WAVWheelchair Accessible Vehicle is three years old. Then you’ll have an MOT test every 12 months as part of your regular service
You might be able to get a Good Condition Bonus at the end of your lease if you’ve looked after your WAVWheelchair Accessible Vehicle well.

Yearly checks
Your WAVWheelchair Accessible Vehicle supplier will check your WAVWheelchair Accessible Vehicle for free at your home every year. This is called an Annual WAVWheelchair Accessible Vehicle check or AWC. It means checking things like the ramp or lift, to make sure they’re working correctly and still meet your needs.
Breakdown cover
We’ll give you RAC Motability Assist cover for any journey in the UK, and in Europe, as long as you ask the RAC for this when you contact them to ask for a VE103, so you can travel with peace of mind.
If your Scheme vehicle breaks down or will not start, call RAC Motability Assist on 0800 731 1173. They’ll try to get someone out to you within 45 minutes.
