Club Car Limited Liability Company of Augusta, Georgia has issued a voluntary recall for approximately 100 of its transport and utility vehicles due to the possibility that the brake pedal mounting blocks can become fractured and separated, causing brake failure and increasing the likelihood of a collision.
This recall affects model year 2012 electric and gas powered vehicles sold for $6,000 to $11,000 at authorized Club Car dealers across the United States in April and May 2011 in assorted sizes, models and colors. These short-distance vehicles are used for transportation and utility purposes, and they can be identified by model names and the serial number located above and to the right of the vehicle’s accelerator pedal.
