Manufacturers QAP Rules
Manufacturer Quality Assurance Program Rules
Designed specifically for auto mobility manufacturers.
Developed by the National Mobility Equipment Dealers Association (NMEDA), the Manufacturer Quality Assurance Program (MQAP) is a quality assurance program for manufacturers. The primary objective of the MQAP Rules is to assure that all modified vehicles and mobility equipment produced by NMEDA members are safe and reliable. This assurance is achieved by independent review of motor vehicle safety standard compliance data including crash test results for accessible vehicle manufacturers.
For mobility equipment installers and dealers, MQAP designation assures that the product being installed or sold meets applicable Federal and Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (F/CMVSS) and contains all the hardware and instructions necessary for proper installations. For end users, the MQAP designation provides confidence in knowing the vehicle or mobility product is safe, has been installed by, and will be serviced by manufacturer certified technicians.
