Well, with an e-vehicle, if the controller is sound, you only have brakes, suspension, and the prop shaft to worry about. Given the use these will have by the average TV resident, the median age here, it is unlikely they will ever need any service with or without vice grips. OK, maybe the lithium batteries...

Edit to add, have YOU ever had a prop shaft or suspension rebuild on your car?, Unlikely...
