Amigo Mobility Center

Amigo Mobility Center occupies an unusual place in scooter history. The Bridgeport location is attached to the Michigan manufacturer whose founder, Al Thieme, developed the original Amigo mobility scooter in 1968 for a loved one with multiple sclerosis. The company's first retail showroom opened in 1984, giving customers a way to try the devices directly at the corporate site on Dixie Highway.

Visitors can compare mobility equipment hands-on and request an in-home evaluation before making a decision. The center also arranges rentals by the day, week or month and offers delivery. Its manufacturer-trained technicians handle repairs on Amigo devices and other supported equipment, including some products purchased elsewhere. Home service appointments and installation of suitable vehicle lifts are among the accessibility services described.

The business can guide eligible clients through Medicare and insurance questions, and it maintains relevant equipment and installation certifications. Rather than offering roadgoing scooters, the center focuses on safe independent mobility for people with physical limitations. Its combination of manufacturing knowledge, demonstrations and repair support is particularly distinctive.
