Hi there,

I understand there are no official Vectrix service station so I am reaching out to see if there are any one either private person or a company that perform repair and/or service on the Vectrix in Southern California. If so, would you mind sharing their information on this thread. Thank you kindly in advance for your help.

Steven Lam

Re: Vectrix Service / Repair in Southern California?

Johnny Sacko is in the process of working with Ooty's Scooters in Santa Barbara to establish a service center here. Dana DeCosta (Vectrix's only employee?) will be here within the next couple of weeks to do the first training, then back again in May for another day of training during which he will convert two bikes to Li. I have a couple of parts on order through Johnny, who has Vectrix's ear. I met the mechanic at Ooty's scooters. He was driving a Gem glorified golf cart which he had souped up in a very cool manner, giving me hope that he will prove to be a competent Vectrix mechanic. This is all early days, and I really don't know any of these people personally, so this is by no means a recommendation. I have chosen to make myself as independent of Vectrix as possible, but being retired, I also have more free time than most. If you are trying to solve a specific problem, calling Ooty's Scooters and getting in touch with Johnny would probably bring help. Good luck.

Hi Steven,
On this forum you will find a wealth of info about the Vectrix,
including free advice from individuals and possibly even companies
how to keep your Vectrix in good health.
What seems to be the matter?
BTW, I am not visiting LA any time soon, but have often given advice from a good description and/or pictures.
There are enough EV enthusiasts in LA that you should be able to find someone local to work on your bike if necessary.
