BraunAbility Chrysler Pacifica: Enhancing Mobility and Independence

For years, the minivan was the undisputed king of the mobility world. But in 2026, the Chevrolet Traverse is proving that you don’t have to sacrifice style for accessibility. This week, we’re spotlighting why the newest Traverse conversion is the "it" vehicle for Maryland families. Style Meets Substance The 2026 Traverse features a bold, truck-inspired design that looks just as good at a Ravens tailgate as it does in the driveway. But the real magic happens inside. With the latest conversion technology, the Traverse offers a lowered floor that provides industry-leading headroom for power chair users. Why 2026 is the Year to Upgrade: Enhanced Super Cruise: Imagine a hands-free drive down to the Eastern Shore. The 2026 model’s Super Cruise tech is more intuitive than ever, reducing driver fatigue on long hauls. Flexible Seating: Whether you need the "removable front seat" option to drive from your chair or a "mid-row" position to stay close to the kids, the 2026 layout is incredibly modular. Zero-Effort Ramps: The new power-fold ramps are quieter and faster, meaning less time waiting in the rain and more time getting where you need to go.

March in Maryland is a breath of fresh air, but for wheelchair-accessible vehicles (WAVs), it’s a season of recovery. Those winter months on I-695 weren’t just cold; they were corrosive. Road salt and grime are the silent enemies of hydraulic lifts and aluminum ramps. This week, we’re focusing on how to ensure your mobility equipment is as ready for spring as you are. The Toll of a Baltimore Winter Salt is incredibly effective at melting ice, but it’s equally good at "eating" the delicate sensors and moving parts of your ramp system. If you’ve noticed your ramp deploying a bit slower or making a new "squeak" when you head to the grocery store, it’s time for a deep clean. At Jerry’s Mobility, we don’t just wash the exterior; we perform a specialized undercarriage and track flush to remove debris that could lead to a mid-trip failure. Maintenance Checklist: Track Lubrication: Ensure the tracks are free of pebbles and salt crystals. Battery Health: Cold weather strains batteries. Since many lifts run on the vehicle’s electrical system, a weak battery can leave you stranded. Tire Pressure: Drastic temperature swings in Carney mean your "Low Tire Pressure" light is likely on. Proper inflation is key for a smooth, level ride. The Jerry’s Mobility Difference We believe maintenance is about more than just mechanics; it’s about peace of mind. Our certified technicians are trained specifically in BraunAbility and Vantage Mobility (VMI) systems. While we work, enjoy our accessible lounge or take advantage of our local shuttle service.

For many, a car is just a way to get from point A to point B. But for those living with mobility challenges, the right vehicle is more than just transportation—it is a key to independence, a way to stay connected to family, and a gateway to the world. At Jerry’s Mobility, we’ve dedicated our business to one mission: making sure that physical challenges never stand in the way of a full life. Whether you are a veteran, a senior, or a family caring for a loved one, we provide the specialized solutions you need to hit the road with confidence. Here is what makes Jerry’s Mobility the premier destination for accessible freedom in Maryland. 1. A Lineup Built for Every Lifestyle Independence isn't one-size-fits-all. That’s why we offer a diverse range of wheelchair-accessible vehicles (WAVs) built on the most reliable chassis in the industry, including the Chrysler Pacifica, Toyota Sienna, Chevrolet Traverse, and Honda Odyssey. Side-Entry Conversions: Perfect for those who want to drive from their wheelchair or sit in the front passenger area. These offer the most interior space and "social" seating arrangements. Rear-Entry Conversions: Often the more economical choice, these are ideal for those who frequently park in standard spaces, as you don’t need an extra-wide "van-accessible" aisle to deploy the ramp. 2. Adaptive Technology Beyond the Ramp Sometimes, you don’t need a full van conversion—you just need the right tools to make your current vehicle work for you. We partner with industry leaders like BraunAbility, Bruno, and Adapt Solutions to offer: Swivel Seating (Turny Evo): A seat that actually rotates and lowers to the ground, making transfers from a wheelchair or walker effortless. Hand Controls & Foot Accelerators: For those with limited lower-body mobility, our SureGrip systems allow you to control gas and brakes with precision and ease. Scooter & Chair Lifts: Whether it’s an interior hoist or an exterior platform, we can help you transport your mobility device on the back of your current SUV or truck. 3. We Support Our Heroes At Jerry’s, we have a deep respect for those who served. We are honored to assist veterans in navigating the VA Automobile Allowance and Adaptive Equipment grants. Jerry's Special: We offer a 10% Veterans Discount on rentals 4. Certified Service You Can Trust A mobility vehicle is a complex piece of engineering. You shouldn’t trust its maintenance to just any shop. Our technicians are BraunAbility Certified and NMEDA-trained. From hydraulic ramp repairs to specialized battery testing, we ensure your lifeline to the world remains reliable. 5. Try Before You Buy: The Rental Center Not sure if a side-entry or rear-entry is right for you? Our Mobility Rental Center allows you to "test-drive" the lifestyle. Whether you need a van for a weekend trip to the Inner Harbor or want to try a specific conversion for a week before purchasing, we make the process simple and affordable.
