Even the best mobility vehicle will need to have some of its parts replaced on an annual or semi-annual basis. If you feel that your car is no longer running as well as before, speak to your local mobility van dealer. At Jerry’s Mobility, we are used to working with similar vehicles, so we can quickly identify and fix the issue.

Most drivers get their car or van checked out by a mechanic once a year. But if you notice any changes to the way your vehicle drives, for example, if there is a strange noise or smell, don’t hesitate to reach out. You might need to have one of your car parts replaced. A professional mechanic can run diagnostic tests and find out what is going on, then suggest an appropriate solution.


Which Parts Need to Be Replaced Regularly?

Some of your van’s parts will need to be replaced once every 6-12 months, while others don’t need to be exchanged until you hit 100,000+ miles. Always get your oil and other fluids checked and replace your oil filter at least once a year, and more frequently if you drive every day or if your car is very old. Your wiper blades should also be replaced frequently, especially in a place like Baltimore, where there is a lot of rain.

When you bring your car to its annual service appointment, your mechanics will check whether any other parts need to be exchanged. These might include your engine air filter, which will wear out after 1-2 years, and your battery, which should last 3-5 years. The fuel pump, water pump, and spark plugs won’t need to be replaced until the 50,000-100,000-mile mark.
