🚨 Mobility Scooter Dealer Red Flags (Podcast #2) 🚨
Before you spend thousands on a mobility scooter, you NEED to hear this.

In this episode, Andrew and I pull back the curtain on the mobility industry and talk openly about the most common dealer red flags we see customers fall victim to every single day.

This isn’t a sales pitch — it’s an honest, no-BS conversation meant to protect you (or a loved one) from making an expensive mistake.

🎙️ In this podcast, we cover:
• Dealers that push one “too good to be true” model
• Hidden restocking fees & misleading return policies
• No real warranty or after-sale support
• Drop-shippers posing as medical equipment providers
• Why some dealers disappear once they get your money
• What a reputable mobility dealer should actually offer

We also explain how to spot a trustworthy dealer, what questions you should always ask before buying, and why brand support + service matters more than price alone.
