Yamaha recalls Drive 2 AC and Drive 2 AC Li golf cars over brake cable that could fail

The brake cable is incorrectly routed with a sharp bend that creates a stress point, so it could fail unexpectedly and the user may not be able to stop the vehicle as intended.

What to do

Owners should contact their local Authorised Yamaha Dealer, quoting the machine's chassis number, to arrange the brake cable work; find a dealer at https://www.yamahamotor.eu/gb/en/dealer-locator/ . For questions, call Yamaha Motor UK customer support on +44 (0)114 553 3099 or email customersupport@yamahamotor.co.uk .
