Yamaha Model Year 2021-2022 Fleet Golf Cars Recall

Serious Injury or Death from a Crash Hazard.

CPSC recall #26542 · announced Jun 11, 2026 · verified Jul 30, 2026

Hazard
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.
Remedy
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.
