Update: installation issues satisfactorily resolved
April 8, 2026 update: Our issue has now been satisfactorily resolved following a service visit arranged by AmeriGlide. The technician who came on-site was excellent — knowledgeable, professional, and effective. We have only positive things to say about his work. In retrospect, the root cause appears to have been related to the original installation (performed by an independent contractor, not AmeriGlide), combined with difficulty accessing effective support early in the process. From a customer perspective, this situation highlights a gap: while AmeriGlide provides the product and warranty, resolving issues can be challenging when coordination between installer and manufacturer support is not seamless. Additional installer support resources or certification standards could help prevent similar situations. We are ultimately satisfied with the outcome, but it took approximately six months to reach resolution.
Response from AmeriGlide Distributing 2019, IncMar 2, 2026
We’re truly sorry to hear about your father’s experience. We understand how important this matter is for you. AmeriGlide strives to ensure the best service for all of our customers. Our records show that this lift was purchased and installed through an independent contractor. As the distributor, AmeriGlide supplied the equipment and provides parts coverage under the manufacturer’s warranty, while installation and on-site labor are handled by the installing contractor or a local authorized service provider. That said, we are here to help. We can support your original installer through live technical assistance, or we can coordinate a factory-trained technician in your area to service the unit. Service visits of this nature are typically well below the amount referenced, and our goal is to help facilitate a fair and practical resolution. Our goal is to ensure your VPL is working properly and safely. Please call us at 1-800-580-0831 or email [email protected] for further arrangements. - The AmeriGlide Team 3-5-2023 In response to your most recent reply, To clarify, AmeriGlide’s role in this transaction was as the product distributor to a third-party. Mr. Pierce did not purchase the equipment from Ameriglide nor did Ameriglide install the equipment. The manufacturer’s warranty covers parts, and AmeriGlide fully honors that warranty. Labor warranties would be covered by the respective installation company you hired. When Mr. Pierce contacted AmeriGlide for assistance; he was offered several ways to assist in getting the lift operational, including technical support and referral to a qualified local installer who could evaluate and repair the unit at a significantly lower service cost than the factory technician travel option that was discussed. Our goal remains the same — to help restore the lift to safe working condition. We remain willing to assist.
