UNKNOWN OR OTHER, EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY
OUR VAN WAS MODIFIED IN DECEMBER, 2000, WITH A RAISED ROOF AND EXTENDED DOORS TO ALLOW ACCESSABILITY FOR OUR HANDICAPPED SON. WE DISCOVERED AROUND JULY, 2002, THAT THE COMPANY PERFORMING THE MODIFICATION HAD NOT INSTALLED A REINFORCED STEEL CAGE OR USED A RAISED FIBERGLASS ROOF ALREADY REINFORCED. THIS IS A MAJOR OMISSION THAT COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY IN THE EVENT OF A ROLLOVER OR OTHER SERIOUS INCIDENT; A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. WE HAVE NOTIFIED THE COMPANY ON JULY 29, 2002OF OUR CONCERNS BUT HAVE NOT RECEIVED A RESPONSE AS OF THIS DATE. THE COMPANY PERFORMING THE MODIFCATION IS ACCESSABILITY SPECIALISTS, INC., 1815 CORPORATE SQUARE BOULEVARD SUITE 200, JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA 32216. THE COMPANY PRESIDENT IS WEST WESTMORELAND. WE HAVE FILED A FORMAL COMPLAINT WITH NMEDA (WEB SITE WWW.NMEDA.ORG) OF WHICH THE COMPANY IS A MEMBER.*AK
