![]() ![]() At least now when I leave the house I know I'm going to get home without crawling or a tow.Ĭharlie[/QUOTE CHARLIE THERE IS A RECALL LAST YEAR ON YOUR CART, WHEN WE HAD MY WIFES SERVICE AT EZGO IN SUMMERFIELD, THEY REPLACED THE WHOLE ELEC. I'd tell everyone to stay away from EZ Go. I had a neighbor with an EZ Go crawl home a few nights ago. I figured getting a lawyer and trying to get a new cart from EZ Go would cost me more than just trading that one in. So I bit the bullet and traded it in for a gas Yamaha. I asked T&C to put in 4 T-1275 and they said EZ Go wouldn't allow them to do that. I don't think they know how to diagnose the problems. After being there the 5th time I was told they couldn't find anything wrong. Once they change a controller, next time they changed a battery. The cart broke down 5 times in 14 months. Well I went 12,400 amp hours in just 14 months. After purchase reading the very fine print that came with the owners manual it states: batteries warrantied for 48 months or 21,500 amp/hours which ever comes first. They even gave me an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of paper with large print stating the fact. ![]() I bought my EZ Go at Town & Country and got the same lie about 48 month warranty on the batteries. The overcharging destroyed 3 of my new Trojan batteries and weakened the rest. But it was actually shutting down briefly after doing a full charge and 15 minutes later starting up again and never shutting down until it was unplugged. I had it checked by two different repair facilities and both said the charger was working correctly, but all they did was plug it in and verify that it would charge. My charger appeared to be working normally but was not. The problem was caused by a defective charger. I had a very similar problem with a Yamaha electric 48v. Is anyone else have this problem? If so, what's the fix? The maintenance manager said it was the 3rd phone call that morning with the same complaint. I called yesterday with the same repeat problem and the dealer made another appointment to pick up the cart. A week later the cart had the same problem (SOC gauge drops to zero) and the dealer replaced a second battery. The first time the dealer replaced one of the Trojan 1275 12v batteries because it "tested bad". This has been going on for over a month and twice been back to the dealer. The cart continues to operate normally but now has a greatly reduced range (30 miles max). Most recently after driving about 15 miles when the state of charge (SOC) indicator reduces to 1/2, the gauge suddenly drops to zero with the warning light on. My 2009 EZGO RXV 48v electric cart is about 18 months old and having some problems. ![]()
