We recently purchased a Honda Odyssey minivan to support our family. While we love the vehicle, Honda unfortunately does not offer running boards anymore for the Odyssey. We were able to find aftermarket running boards that are made for the Odyssey, and even better, Honda will reimburse us for the purchase! Some of the automobile manufacturers have Mobility Assistance programs to help reimburse costs related to vehicle modifications due to disabilities. We encourage you to check out these programs and keep them in mind when purchasing a new vehicle.
You can use many of these programs to get reimbursed for pedal extensions on your new vehicle!
