Yamaha has recalled about 4,300 Model Year 2017-2024 DR2A and DR2E Personal Transportation Vehicles (PTVs) because the vehicles can fail to brake. The recall includes various colored golf cars with serial numbers starting with J0D, J0E, and J2D. No injuries have been reported, but Yamaha is offering a free repair to install new brake shoes and pads for all affected units.
The vehicle's brakes can fail during operation, creating a crash hazard that poses a risk of serious injury or death to occupants and bystanders.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled golf car vehicles and contact an authorized Yamaha Golf Car dealer to schedule the free installation of new brake shoes and pads. For consumers who cannot take their recalled golf car to an authorized dealer, Yamaha will provide transportation or will install the replacement brake shoes and pads at the location of the golf car.
Serial number prefixes listed; serial number is located on the handlebars on the left side of the rear row of seats.
