will the pacemaker/icd be affected by an electromagnetic device near the wheels of an electric wheelchair? Do all electric wheelchairs have it in their motors?

The pacer systems are really very reliable. The main problem is the incompetent programming of them. If yours is working well for you, get on with life and enjoy it. You probably are more at risk of problems with a valve job than the pacer.

EMF field and DC electric motor not big enough to bother heart device.
Besides, mfgr of wheelchair is eager to sell you the mobile device and should be able to guarantee it.
