What to do if you own this product
What is the hazard with Model Year 2021-2022 Yamaha Drive2 Electric Fleet Golf Cars?
Model Year 2021-2022 Yamaha Drive2 Electric Fleet Golf Cars was announced earlier this year, in the "Other" category. The recalled golf cars' passenger-side brake cable could have been misrouted during assembly. If the cable was misrouted, abnormal wear can occur which can cause the passenger-side cable to break during use, posing a risk of serious injury or death from a crash hazard. This falls under one of the more serious hazard categories (injury, choking or strangulation risk), so the recall covers every unit sold, not only units with a reported incident.
What should you do if you own this product?
Consumers should stop using the recalled fleet golf cars immediately and contact an authorized Yamaha Golf Car dealer to schedule a free inspection of the passenger-side brake cable routing. If the cable was misrouted, the dealer will replace the cable with a new, properly routed cable. For consumers who cannot take the recalled golf car to an authorized dealer, a Yamaha dealer will provide transportation of the golf car or will inspect and, if necessary, install a new, properly routed cable at the location of the golf car. Sold at: Yamaha Golf Car dealers nationwide from March 2021 through September 2024 for between $6,700 and $8,830.. If you bought it somewhere else, the remedy above still applies — contact the firm directly using the official recall page linked below.
How many units are affected?
About About 8,650 (In addition, about 700 were sold in Canada) units of Model Year 2021-2022 Yamaha Drive2 Electric Fleet Golf Cars are covered by this recall, according to the official count reported by the firm to the regulator.
