The health and safety of our customers is held paramount by our rear entry modifier Viewpoint Mobility. They have designed their modifications to be the safest possible and their twelve-year long testing program proves it. Not only is it one of the longest testing programs in the industry, but the results from crash testing are used to continuously improve design concepts in future generation modifications.

Viewpoint Mobility's testing program includes crash testing, seat and seat-base testing, and brake testing. They have also completed emission and sound testing. In every test, the Vision™ has exceeded FMVSS (USA) and CMVSS (Canada) standards.

Viewpoint Mobility's rear entry modification is preferred because of the fact that the vehicle manufacturer's unibody design is not compromised. Their construction techniques ensure that the vehicle's frame is as perfectly aligned as it was when it came off the production line. Other modifications are more intrusive because a significant piece of the vehicle is removed in construction, and the original safety and quality characteristics are altered.

Viewpoint Mobility is proud of their safety initiative and we are pleased to pass the benefits of one of the safest wheelchair accessible vehicles on to you.

ABOUT CRASH TESTING

Viewpoint Mobility works hard to stay at the forefront of lowered-floor minivan engineering and testing. A crash test consists of testing the Front, Drivers Side, and Rear of the same van to see if it meets Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS).

The first picture above is the Ford Windstar after the frontal crash. After the impact the van is left untouched for 30 minutes to see if fuel leaks out. We passed successfully and had no fuel leaks!

The next picture is the same van after the rear crash was performed. After the impact the van is left untouched for 30 minutes to see if fuel leaks out. We again passed with no leaks!

After each crash the van is put onto a rotisserie to ensure that there are indeed no leaks. The van is rotated in 90° increments and held there for 5 minutes to see if anything leaks out. You will be glad to know we had zero fuel leakage on all 3 (Front, Side & Rear) successful crash tests of this van!

Viewpoint Mobility's commitment to engineer and manufacture safe products shows in everything they do.
