Passenger & Vehicle FAQ’s Can I request a certain vehicle type? Yes, you can request a specific vehicle when you book a trip. Passengers may request a larger vehicle, or request the Nissan NV200 if they need a vehicle with a hearing loop. What if my mobility aid does not fit in the vehicle, or the number of my passengers exceeds the vehicle capacity? The driver should call the driver hotline. The driver will receive a cancellation payment. The dispatcher will send out a new vehicle to accommodate the passenger(s).

Passenger & Vehicle FAQ’s Can my service animals be transported in TLC-licensed vehicles? Yes, drivers are required to transport service animals under TLC rules. Is the driver responsible for stowing my mobility aid? Yes, if you wish to transfer from your wheelchair or walker, the driver can help you into the vehicle and stow your mobility aid. How do I know the fare that I will be charged? You will pay the metered fare with no extra cost. You can find the current rate of fare on the TLC website.

The Complaint Process Filing a 311 complaint pertaining to ramp/securement issues, driver customer service, service animal refusals, or any other issues concerning Accessible Dispatch service is the best way to ensure a complete record of driver/vehicle issues & ensure appropriate follow-up. If a complaint is filed only through the dispatch operations call center it would not be considered an official complaint. The TLC follows up on every complaint received via 311, so your feedback will not go unnoticed. If you file a complaint, you should expect a return call from a TLC staff member who will ask for the details of the issue & collect information required for follow-up, such as the date/time of the trip, vehicle license number & driver license number. The complaints process is detailed on the TLC website here: www.nyc.gov/html/tlc/html/passenger/sub_consumer_compl.shtml. If you prefer, or if you have concerns with the 311 process, you can also leave feedback for MTM directly at www.accessibledispatch.com/rider-feedback. MTM documents all complaints & shares complaints with the TLC when it is appropriate.
