Recall campaignsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

Recall campaigns

1 campaign cover this model year — what the defect is, what it could cause, and what the remedy is

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING:FUSES AND CIRCUIT BREAKERS

Aug 15, 2002
3,552 units potentially affected
The defect: CERTAIN 2-PASSENGER, OPEN BODY, VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH REQUIREMENTS FOR FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 500, "LOW-SPEED VEHICLES." ELECTRICAL RELAYS RATED FOR 12-VOLTS HAVE BEEN INSTALLED IN PLACE OF RELAYS RATED FOR 48-VOLTS.
The risk: THE 12-VOLT RELAYS SUBSEQUENTLY FAIL DUE TO OVERVOLTAGE, RENDERING THE BRAKE LIGHTS INOPERABLE. INOPERABLE BRAKE LAMPS WILL INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH TO THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE WHEN OPERATED IN TRAFFIC CONDITIONS.
The remedy: CLUB CAR WILL PROVIDE FIELD TEAMS TO PERFORM THE INSPECTION AND REPLACE PARTS AS REQUIRED WITHOUT CHARGE TO THE OWNER OR END USER. OWNER NOTIFICATION IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING AUGUST 2002. OWNERS WHO DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT CLUB CAR AT 1-800-258-2227, EXTENSION 3820.

What a recall is

Safety recall
A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
Safety investigation
NHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
Manufacturer communication
Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
